Baby Alliance: Helping Daddy Get A Rich Mommy Chapter 857
Chapter 857 How Did This Happen?
Jason frowned immediately. “What happened to your hand?” “Nothing.” Mayaboy was too afraid to
meet his gaze as she spoke. “Show me!” He forcefully tugged on her hand before he gently rolled her
sleeve up to reveal her arms. They were covered in scars that looked like they had been made by a
whip!
“How did this happen?” Jason felt his heart thundering at the sight of the brutal scars. Some of them
looked fresh as they were still bloody, while scabs had already formed over others.
There were a number of scars that looked like they had been around for an even longer time, and the
old and new wounds ovepped each other in a random, disorganized pattern.
She quickly pulled her hand away. “It’s nothing. My mother-inw has a bad temper. She beat me after
I identally dropped a bowl during dinnertime. That’s all.” The smile hadn’t left her face as she told
Jason about the incident; she made it sound as if it was nothing more than amon matter.

Jason felt his heart aching for the girl before him. “Your mother-inw beat you up so badly over a
bowl?” “Well, all married women have to deal with their inws’ tempers, right?” She continued to
smile.
“How did things end up like this…” Jason couldn’t help but me himself. “This wouldn’t have
happened if I had brought you away back then.” He sank into a pit of guilt. If I had managed to run
away with her in the past; if I had returned to look for her after I left this ce; if… Well, there’s no use
for wishful thinking now…
He didn’t understand the culture in Mayaboy’s vige, but he had hoped that her life would improve
after she got married. All he knew back then was how poor her own family was, so he had assumed
that her quality of life would’ve improved after she got married to the n leader’s more affluent family,
but he had no idea that she would turn out in the state that she was in right then.
The smile hadn’t left Mayaboy’s face even then. “I should really thank you for what you did then,
townsman. I’m really thankful that you were willing to bring me along with you back then. Although we
didn’t manage to leave in the end, just the fact that you were willing to bring me along already meant a
lot to me. Some other guy would have just treated me like I was crazy.”
Jason couldn’t seem to return her smile. “I should have brought you away from this ce. It’s all my
fault. I didn’t have the ability to bring you along with me at that time.”
She quickly shook her head. “Don’t say that. All of this is fate. I’m fated to stay here, and I’m fated to
live this way for the rest of my life. Oh, by the way, I forgot to ask you this earlier. What brought you
here again? Are you still here on a trip this time?”
He shook his head in response. “No. I’m here to look for you.” “You were looking for me?” She stared at
him confusedly.
“I’ve always felt some unresolved feelings within me since I failed to bring you away in the past.” His
gaze was gentle as he looked at the woman before his eyes.
Even though she was no longer the beautiful young girl he had met all those years ago, he realized that
he was still in love with her, and that his love seemed to grow with every second. He liked her
determination and her toughness, and he admired her optimism and her cheerfulness.
She gave him a bashful smile as she seemed rather embarrassed upon hearing his words. Women
were generally sensitive creatures, and she seemed to understand the message he was conveying
through his gaze. “It’s gettingte. I should leave now. You should get some rest too.” She stood up to
leave after she finished her sentence.
“Hold on!” Jason hastily turned around to retrieve the first-aid kit from his luggage. He had a habit of
bringing a first-aid kit around whenever he was traveling, and it contained all the basic medication and
ointments that were used. Then, he pulled her hand over and began to apply some ointment for her.
In the meantime, she quietly peeked at Jason while he worked on her arm. He didn’t change at all. He
still looks as handsome as he did in the past. I had been infatuated with him since the first time I met
him, but I’m nothing more than a poor vige girl, whereas he’s a rich man from town. How would I dare
to wish for anything to happen between us? She felt her face turning red as she thought about it.
“Make sure this doesn’t get wet. You should stop doing heavy-duty tasks for a while. Wait until this
recovers a little,” Jason said after he finished treating her wounds.
“I’ll leave now, then.” She kept her head low as she spoke, and she hurried off right after that.
