When Jessi and Nich are preoccupied with kissing, suddenly a woman's booming voice shatters everything.
"My dear, my daughter-in-law. Are you all right?" Laura's voice came making Jessi spontaneously let go of her kiss.
Nich stared intently at his mother, an annoyed expression clearly visible on the man's face.
Laura felt herself getting a sharp glare from someone. "Oops, looks like Mommy came at the wrong time. You go on, if you need to go to the room, don't be here!"
The middle-aged woman blinked one eye at Jessi then left the location, before her polar child went berserk.
Jessi felt awkward and embarrassed about it. His face flushed like a boiled crab, he repeatedly scratched the non-itchy earlobes.
Nich's baritone voice broke that ominous atmosphere. "Are you hungry, Sweety?"
"No, I ate at Jane's place."
"Drink?"
"Whatever."
Nich asked a waiter to get them a drink and hand them back the medicine box to keep.
"Who attacked you, Sweety?"
"So, I think it's between Barron and Emily."
"Barron and Emily?" Nich knitted his eyebrows together, causing a frown on his forehead.
"But I'm not sure if Barron. Chances are he'll suspect Jackson more than I do. However, Emily ... seems like she's so obsessed with you Nich." Jessi recalled the times the woman struggled in the car with the person who attacked her earlier. Obviously Emily always mentioned Nich in every sigh.
Unknowingly the look on Jessi's face changed, there was a sense of dislike when her man was wanted by another woman. Am I jealous? The woman shook her head, denying what she felt.
Nich, who saw Jessi's red face, put the back of his hand on her forehead. "Are you sick, Sweety?"
The man looked so anxious about the condition of his future wife. "Should we go to the hospital?"
"No no! I'm doing fine. I just feel bad when I call Emily." Jessi lowered her head, she felt ashamed to admit it.
Nich, who saw the jealousy on Jessi's face, immediately carried the body into his arms. "I'm not gonna fuck around. You don't have to think about anything, Sweety!"
"I know."
"What are you going to do to get back at them?"
Jessi let go of the hug. "I'm not going to act yet, my gut feeling is that the Night family is the key to the problem."
"You mean?"
"Yesterday when Mario was investigating Barron he said that the man was involved in the shipment." Jessi stopped her words when the waiter came to deliver drinks. "Thank you."
"Then?"
"It was sent from State K and it was a family-owned company. He suspected that we had exchanged two cartons. It turns out that only the packaging is instant food, the contents are marijuana."
"Don't that mean Barron's working with them?"
Jessi nodded while sipping a drink. "I'm sure they're the same group as human trafficking that day."
"Did you guys manage to find out which group they were from?"
The woman shook her head. "Maurer can't access the information because he's wearing a face mask."
Nich was shocked for a moment, he widened his eyes to hear Jessi's words. "Are the intruders in your room and the person who did it the same?"
"Oh, God." Nich pulled his hair out violently. "Can't you just sit back and be my wife, Sweety? Let me finish them off!"
Jessi looked at Nich with a sharp look. "Do you want to interrupt my pleasure?"
The man clasped both hands of the woman in front of him. "That's not what I mean. I'm just worried about you, honey. Can't you see that? They were extremely dangerous people, not even hesitating to use poison to kill the target."
"I knew. You can protect me like that, just don't overdo it and don't interfere with my freedom."
"As far as you go." Nich walked away with an annoyed look.
He walked upstairs leaving Jessi. The man slammed the door of his room hard, making everyone who saw it shocked at the childish attitude that the young master had just displayed.
The servants and Laura who were engrossed in seeing the scene of two lovebirds from a romantic scene to ending in a sweet quarrel, made them immediately approach the young mistress.
"Darling, what happened to that polar boy?"
"Polar boy?" Jessi frowns at the name she pinned to Nich.
"Yes, polar boy. He was a cold, heartless man." Laura poked her lips saying that.
"I heard it!" The sound of protest cries from inside Nich's room was heard so clearly.
Laura spontaneously clenched her lips tightly. "Darling, how about we go to the back garden?"
"Come, Mom!"
They walked towards the back garden, the beautiful atmosphere was so felt here. The breeze and the sound of birds chirping plus the color of the sky that began to redden create a perfect blend.
A gazebo becomes a place where they put themselves to chat.
"What's the matter with you, honey? Why are you getting hurt?" Laura looks so worried to see the wound on Jessi's face.
"It's nothing, Mom. Just a little trouble." Jessi stared fixedly at Laura, reminiscent of the photo now mounted on the wall of her residence. "Mom, can I sleep on your lap?"
"Of course you can, come here!" Laura put up the body to make Jessi comfortable with her position.
Jessi put her head on Laura's lap making her mutter softly. "Is this what it's like to have a mother?"
Laura gently rubbed the woman's hair on her thighs. "I'm also your mother, you can sleep on my lap, lean on my shoulder, and tell me all your life stories. Baby, I really love you sincerely. Not just because of Nich!"
"Thank you, Mom." Jessi felt calm on Laura's lap subconsciously she slowly closed her eyes, heading into dreamland.
The middle-aged woman who was still beautiful gently still stroked Jessi's long hair. He really loved this kid. Nich approached them to the park.
"Mom ....!"
"Ssttt ... Don't be hard, he's quite exhausted!" Nich nodded. "Take Jessi to the room, it's too cold in here!"
Nich took over the body, then carried it.
"Don't add to the burden of his mind by imposing your will, Son!"
The man nodded, then walked to his room carefully so as not to disturb Jessi's sleep.
Upon arrival in the room, Nich slowly sloshed Jessi's body, then covered the blanket to the top of her chest. His expression softened again to see that beautiful, slumbering face. Did I go too far?
"I'm sorry if I'm burdening you, Sweety! I'm just too worried." Nich flicked the child's hair that covered Jessi's eyelids, he then dyed long enough the woman's forehead. "I love you."
Nich stepped out of his room, letting the woman take a short break from all the problems he was having. Let him dream first.
