Chapter 125 What Are You Looking at, Mrs. Fletcher?
Leila kept tailing Lorenzo, for she could never reconcile herself to the fact that Lorenzo had chosen
Jessica instead of her. She had to drive Jessica away, because Lorenzo could only belong to her!
Lorenzo, however, was a great driver. In a few seconds, his car disappeared from Leila’s sight. She
wanted to follow him, but failed to identify his location. She didn’t even realize that she had driven
through a red light.
Beep beep!
"What’s your problem! Didn’t you see the red light? Do you want to kill yourself so bad?"
The other drivers began beeping at and hurling abuse at Leila, which made her come to her senses.
Leila slammed on the brake and the car squealed to a halt. Wet with cold sweat, she was panting This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
heavily, and now she realized she could have died a few seconds ago.
When Leila finally calmed down, Lorenzo’s car was already nowhere to be seen, and only her car was
on the road.
No way!
She wouldn’t give up like this!
Just because she lost track of Lorenzo, that didn’t mean she couldn’t call him!
And the next second, she called Lorenzo.
Lorenzo accelerated the car too suddenly for Jessica to react. Since the car took a sharp turn, she was
thrown towards the driver’s seat and thus fell into Lorenzo’s arms.
"Seems that I’ve behaved so well tonight that you can’t wait to throw yourself at me, right?"
Lorenzo stretched out his right arm and wrapped it around Jessica calmly, his sonorous voice
resounding in the car.
"Mr. Fletcher, I have to warn you that it’s dangerous to drive like that. I know you’re a great driver, but
please don’t do that again unless a ghost is coming after you, will you?"
Jessica took a deep breath and wrenched herself free from Lorenzo’s arm.
"A ghost? I didn’t see one, but there’s a vixen sitting right next to me now."
Lorenzo chuckled despite himself.
"You are such a…"
Jessica was lost for words. But suddenly, the car took a turn again, and she realized something was
going on.
"Hold on, Mr. Fletcher. I don’t think we’re on the way to the private estate. We’re on a strange road. Are
we getting lost?" Jessica asked anxiously.
"Are you laughing at me, girl?"
Lorenzo chuckled, raised his hand and rubbed Jessica’s head lovingly, continuing, "Call Alina and tell
her we’re OK and won’t go back to the private estate tonight."
"We’re not going back to the private estate? Are you going to take me to the hotel? No, I don’t have my
ID card with me."
Jessica reminded Lorenzo, her clear eyes sparkling.
"Are you looking forward to spending the night with me in a hotel room?"
"Not at all!"
"Why are you denying it so eagerly? We aren’t going to the hotel, because I have other houses to
spend the night in. I don’t go to my other houses often, but the maids clean them up regularly. Don’t
worry."
It was nothing new for a business tycoon like Lorenzo to have multiple houses. Most of the time,
Lorenzo stayed in the private estate with his grandmother, but occasionally, he would go to one of his
other houses to stay overnight.
"We have to go to one of your other houses?"
Jessica asked nervously.
"You have a lot on your mind, my little princess. Do you think I must do something to you on your
birthday night?
"Since you’re looking forward to it, I have to satisfy you. Otherwise, I’d be called an irresponsible
husband, wouldn’t I?"
Lorenzo joked, sounding as if he was in a good mood.
"Hello, Alina, it’s Jessica."
Jessica didn’t want to continue the conversation that made her blush, so she took out her phone and
called Alina immediately.
"My good Jessica, happy birthday! You’re getting one year older today. Did you enjoy the day?"
Alina’s kind voice came from the other end of the line.
"Thank you, Alina. I’ve had a wonderful day, and I couldn’t feel happier. Well… Lorenzo and I won’t go
back to the private estate tonight, because it’s getting late and we don’t want to disturb you. And…"
Blushing, Jessica was too shy to go on.
Lorenzo turned to Jessica, feeling warm inside at the sight of her red cheeks.
Just as Lorenzo watched her in fascination, his phone rang suddenly.
But nothing could startle him, because he was the man who had gone through countless hardships.
He glanced at his phone and knit his brows, his eyes grim. The next moment, he shut down his phone.
"Good girl! I see. Hope you and Lorenzo will be in love forever, and hope you’ll get pregnant soon!"
Granny Mrs. Fletcher smiled.
"OK. Goodbye, Alina."
Jessica heard Alina’s words, her heart racing, her cheeks burning even more violently.
The car pulled into the garage of the house smoothly. Jessica knew the house must belong to Lorenzo
at a glance, because it was furnished in his style.
"Someone called SM sent a gift to you. I asked my bodyguard to bring it here. Have a look at it."
Lorenzo took Jessica into the house, helped her change the shoes and pointed at the bedroom.
Jessica trotted into the bedroom happily and unwrapped the gift.
It was a unique box, and the neat handwriting on it looked familiar. There was a note attached to it,
saying, "Please handle the box gently and don’t turn it over. It’s a precious gift."
Jessica unwrapped the gift carefully and saw a fixed bed inside the box. When she took off all the
protective layers, a few beautiful and rare plants showed in front of her.
It took Jesscia a few seconds to realize what the plants were, and suddenly, she widened her eyes.
They were exactly ink lotus!
ink lotus wasn’t some ordinary plant. It grew in the most dark and bright area, but no one knew what
kind of place it was. According to medical books, ink lotus had different effects on different people, and
it could kill people once used improperly.
Jessica didn’t have a chance to see ink lotus with her own eyes, even if she was a sophisticated doctor.
However, Summer actually sent it to her as a birthday gift!
Summer looked so certain when she told Jessica she could get it for her. At that time, Jessica had
doubt about what Summer said. She didn’t expect Summer to be serious about it.
"Happy birthday, Jessica! I worked really hard to get these ink lotus. But it has uncertain effects on
different people, so you have to be very careful while using it. I almost died, but fortunately, I was
treated in time and thus survived. I’m OK now. Don’t worry about me."
Jessica finally came to her senses after some time. Summer was a genius to have got ink lotus for her!
Back when Jessica was in the Capttar Medical School, she had seen the plants kept by Summer.
Jessica didn’t recognize many of them, and they were still seedlings at that time. Now she realized
those must be rare medical herbs that Summer was keeping.
Jessica couldn’t wait to talk to Summer over ink lotus, but it wasn’t time now.
Lorenzo’s condition was getting worse. If she postponed the treatment, he could die. There wasn’t
much time left for her.
Therefore, Jessica decided to take actions as soon as possible.
There was another weird-looking parcel, but Jessica knew it must be from her friend Amara without
looking at the signature on it. But what did she give her?
Jessica couldn’t read Amara’s mind.
However, the moment she unwrapped the gift, Jessica choked with embarrassment.
It was a set of sex toys.
Amara left a note inside the box. "Jessica, my dearest friend, happy birthday! Hope you and Mr.
Fletcher will be in love forever. P.S. I assume this size would fit him perfectly. XOXO"
The next moment, Jessica slapped the box shut with a blush, her heart pounding.
Meanwhile, Lorenzo was done with his business, came out of the study and went into the spacious
master bedroom. He took off his hand-made suit jacket and walked up to the floor-to-ceiling window
with a hand in his pocket. His shoulders were wide, his waist narrow. He had a perfect figure and was
born a perfect model.
Now that Amara’s gift put Jessica into a trance, her bright eyes were fixed on Lorenzo’s waist.
"What are you looking at, Mrs. Fletcher?"
Lorenzo’s mellow voice resounded through the spacious bedroom.
Jessica felt guilty and nervous, as if she had done something wrong. She looked up at Lorenzo’s
handsome face subconsciously, while Lorenzo stared at the panic-stricken her.
