Chapter 942 J Is Held As A Hostage
Jethro assisted his frail wife in walking into the hall. J then requested that the receptionist bring
them clean towels and warm drinks.
"I''ll put some pillows around your waist. It will help you feel morefortable." J ced two
pillows on the chair where the expecting mother would sit.
"Oh, it seems that you know these things so well, Mrs. Larson. Do you have any children at home?"
The pregnant woman''s face was still pale, but she didn''t seem to be in so much pain anymore.
J smiled. "I don''t have a baby yet, but my best friend is in the middle stage of her pregnancy
and is feeling sore all over. I often see her lying on the bed like this."
The pregnant woman nodded, holding a cup, and looked at Jethro, who was sitting next to her and
busy checking his phone.

She looked at J and said guiltily, "Mrs. Larson, thank you for letting me in. In fact, today''s
demonstration..." The pregnant woman was about to say something but stopped on a second
thought. J could tell she was feeling very guilty. On the other hand, Jethro sat on the sofa and
yed on his phone as soon as he walked in. J guessed that he was very cold to his wife at
home.
Despite her pregnancy, the poor woman had to go out to protest. Most likely, Jethro forced her to do
so.
"I understand. You rest until the ambnce arrives." After a few moments, J checked the time
and thought that the interview would have been over. "Go and inform Mr. Larson about what
happened here," she said to the security guard.
Este immediately jumped up from the sofa. "What? I can finally see Brandon? I thought I would
waste my whole afternoon here."
J couldn''t help but be amused by Este''s excitement.
She didn''t notice Jethro approaching slowly behind Este with a dark expression on his face.
When Jethro saw the security guard leave, he immediately took out a knife.
He pushed Este out of the way and pulled J over.
A cold light shed, and before anyone could react, Jethro''s knife was already pressed against
J''s neck.
Jethro''s wife was so terrified that she nearly passed out. She wanted to stand up, but she couldn''t
because she couldn''t movefortably with her big belly. "Jethro... Are you out of your mind?!
What are you doing?"
"Shut up, fat woman!"
J adjusted her tense breathing. She didn''t expect that Jethro would be this crazy and hold her
hostage.
"Let''s talk. Don''t be impulsive," she persuaded in a trembling voice.
"Bullshit! I wouldn''t have been so broke if it hadn''t been because of Brandon." Jethro gritted his
teeth. "It''s none of my business that Brandon has a grudge against the Turner Group! Why should
his mistakes jeopardize my career? My baby will be a beggar the moment he is born! I want
Brandon to feel the agony as well!"
Jethro had nned to kill Brandon if they couldn''te to an agreement.
But because he couldn''t meet Brandon, Jethro thought he had no chance at all.
Fortunately, his wife passed out unexpectedly, giving him the opportunity to catch J.
"We''re going to have a baby, Jethro. Don''t do anything stupid!" Jethro''s wife''s abdominal pain may
have been aggravated by her emotions. She struggled to get up but fell to the floor, perspiring
profusely.
Jethro looked coldly at the woman on the floor, as if he didn''t recognize her. "I supported you
financially without fail. Don''t get in my way this time."
He then lowered his head and looked at J, smirking. "I think Brandon will be here soon. We will
all die here if he doesn''t give me the money!"
J gave Jethro a cold stare. "You''re the worst. You took advantage of your pregnant wife to gain
other people''s sympathy. Jethro, you are a bastard!"
Jethro gritted his teeth and pressed the knife harder into J''s neck, warning vehemently, "Bitch, I
would have killed you right now if only I didn''t need you to threaten Brandon and ask him for
money!"
J sneered. From the corner of her eye, she saw Este moving. She dared not act rashly.
However, Jethro was on high alert. When he turned around, he saw Este pouncing on him.
"Damn bitch!" he yelled angrily, taking two steps back. "You''re attacking me?"
He then stabbed Este unexpectedly.
