Chapter 465: You Owe Him Nothing!


    Lily knows Tourmaline Community, which is a high-end residential area. She has made a bet with Lucy


    and won an apartment in themunity. However, she gave it to Johnter.


    Leigh owns a house there?


    She thinks for a while and decides to give it a shot, asking, "Did you note down the number of that


    house?"


    "Yes, I''ll send it to you by email."


    "Alright, thank you."


    Lily quickly finishes her work and checks the email to get the house number. Afterwards, she tells E


    that she has to leave work early and walks out of thepany.


    On the way to Tourmaline Community, Lily calls the front desk of the Lewis Group to inquire about


    Leigh''s whereabouts.


    Leigh has gone to another province on a business trip and will be back at least three dayster.


    After arriving at the destination, Lily easily finds Leigh''s vi with the help of the house number.


    She sizes up the vi as she walks towards the gate.


    The garden inside is well-tended with blooming roses, which seem to be pruned frequently. Lily can see


    servants working busily in the garden.


    Leighes here only for a few times in a month, but the vi looks good and clean. Besides, the


    servants seem to live here. All this suggests that someone is living in the vi and needs looking after!


    Lily concludes that Jessie must be here. Lily represses her excitement and rings the doorbell.


    Soon a servantes out.


    The servant trots along the garden path to the gate and looks at Lily vigntly, "Can I help you?"


    "I''m Jessie''s friend. Leigh said that Jessie didn''t feel well, so Ie to visit her," Lily replies carefully.


    Afraid that the servant doesn''t believe her, Lily shows the servant the photos she took with Leigh at


    Country R.


    The servant lets her guard down at the sight of those photos.


    "Wait a moment. I need to make a phone call."


    Lily smiles, "He can''t answer your phone call now. Didn''t he tell you that he went to another province on


    business when he left? He probably is tied up in meetings now!"


    "Mr. Leigh did say that he would be very busy these days."


    Since Lily even knows Leigh''s whereabouts, the servant believes that Leigh has indeed asked Lily to

    see Jessie. The servantpletely dispels her doubts and opens the gate.


    Lily casually asks as she follows the servant into the vi, "What a lovely day! Why doesn''t Jessie


    The servant sighs, "Miss Jessie seldomes downstairs. She stays in her room all the day. Besides,


    she is in low spirits. We''re worried that she will have a miscarriage."


    Sure enough, Jessie is hidden here!


    Lily suppresses her anger and says, "I''ll try and straighten her outter."


    "Thank you."


    The servant leads Lily to the third floor and knocks on the door, "Miss Jessie, your friend is here to see


    you."


    A few secondster, a weak female voicees from inside, "Come in."


    The servant opens the door.


    From the sighs of the servant, Lily can tell that Jessie is having a rough time.


    Lily''s heart aches when she sees Jessie''s thin body and dull eyes after entering the room.


    Jessie casually looks up, and her eyes widens in disbelief after she recognizes Lily.


    Lily smiles at her.


    Afterwards, Lily turns around and says to the servant, "You can go downstairs. We want to chat for a


    while."


    The servant nods, "Alright. Do you want dessert or ck tea? I''ll bring them up for you."


    "No. We''ll call you when we need."


    After the servant walks out, Lily immediately closes the bedroom door.


    Jessie walks over and asks dly, "When did youe back? Look at your rosy cheeks. Your babies


    must be very healthy, right?"


    "The babies and I are fine. But what happened to you?" Lily stares at Jessie and bursts into tears,


    "Why are you so thin? Your baby...."


    She looks down at Jessie''s belly and finds it t, "You ... Haven''t you been pregnant for a long time?


    Why is your belly t?"


    Hearing this, the smile on Jessie''s face fades.


    After a long time, she purses her pale lips and says with difficulty, "I lost my babies...."


    In the next hour, Jessie tells Lily everything that happens these days.


    She exins why she would have a miscarriage and stay here.


    Lily''s face darkens as she listens to Jessie. In the end, Lily trembles and says through clenched teeth,


    "Leigh is a bastard! I believe that he will be nice to you, but he betrays my trust."


    "I owe it to him. I deserved it," Jessie smiles and says with studied lightness, "I called my uncle while


    Leigh was asleep. Now my uncle and his family should be traveling in country R. Leigh can do anything


    to me as long as he lets my uncle off."


    Lily says angrily, "You owe him nothing! You indeed avenged your family, but there is nothing wrong


    with that. It''s his fault. He should me his father! He''s such a bastard. He actually vents his anger on


    women!"


    Jessie touches her belly and says dejectedly, "Now I''m pregnant again. I want to keep the baby, but I


    always vomit whatever I eat. And I have no appetite..."


    Every time Leigh holds her while sleeping, she will think of what she saw in the study that day. This


    makes her sick.


    Now she keeps the baby not for him.


    It''s because it really hurts to lose the two kids before. She doesn''t want to experience that again, so


    she wants to keep this baby.


    Jessie stares at Lily''s swollen belly with envy, "Are they good in your belly?"


    "No, they often kicked me in the past few days. But now they''re much quieter." As Lily speaks, she


    recalls the duck soup thing and feels upset.


    She changes the topic, "Do you have anything important here? I want to take you away."


    "No." Jessie shakes her head, "Leigh is temperamental now. I don''t want to implicate you. Besides, I''m


    fine here."


    "Bullshit! Look at yourself. You''re too thin! Leigh treats you as a prisoner. He leaves you here alone and


    doesn''t care about you," Lily curses, her eyes brimming with tears.


    She adds before Jessie can speak, "He won''t do anything to me. Don''t worry. I''ll take you to a ce


    where he can''t find. Then you can have a good rest."


    "Lily, forget it." Jessie is still hesitating.


    She doesn''t want to involve Lily into this and lose her only friend.


    However, Lily ignores Jessie''s words and directly pulls her out.


    They are stopped by the servant when arriving at the living room.


    "Miss Jessie, where are you going?"


    "I''m going to take her out for a walk," Lily calmly replies to the servant, "We''ll be back at night."


    The servant looks at Jessie and recalls Leigh''s instructions, saying vigntly, "I''ll ask someone to go


    with you. If you go shopping at the mall, he can carry goods for you."


    Lily refuses, "No need. I have a car. Don''t you trust me?"


    "That''s not what I meant."


    "Then what do you mean? I just want to take her out for a walk. Why are you so cautious? Are you


    afraid that I''ll take her away?" Lily sneers and calls Leigh. Then she gives her phone to the servant,


    "Fine, let your boss talk to you."


    The servant apologizes and takes the phone.


    However, nobody answers.
