Dangerous Billionaire

Chap 48



My apologize

Arvel just finished taking a shower. He put on his clothes and immediately went downstairs for dinner. Lexi and Jessica must also be downstairs for dinner.

He was walking down the stairs quickly and sat at the dining table, but Lexi and Jessica weren’t there.

“Auntie, what Lexi has not come down for dinner?” Arvel asked. Mrs. Anna and Mr. Samuel were still busy watching television in the family room.

“No, didn’t you guys eat out earlier?”Anna asked back.

“No, sister-in-law refused to have dinner outside because it was too late!” he answered.

“Then you have to eat, I’ll bring Jessica something to eat.” Mrs. Anna was loving for her daughter-in-law and was eager to show her care for Jessica. So that Jessica could know, Lexi also has a good mama.

Mrs. Anna immediately got up from her seat. He took Rice and chicken. Jessica liked it. Then he got up from his seat and went to Jessica’s room.

“Lexi, open the door!” Mrs. Anna said.

“Yes,” he opened the door.

“Where is Jessica? Mama brought dinner for her! Arvel said they hadn’t eaten since noon,” she explained. She was looking for Jessica, but her beloved daughter-in-law wasn’t there.

Lexi was silent, he deliberately stood before Mrs. Anna, so that he could not enter. It could be dangerous if his mother found out that he had locked Jessica in the bathroom for an hour.

“Where is Jessica?!” Mrs. Anna urged. She became mad because Lexi didn’t move at all. He was constantly blocking her view and not allowing her to enter.

“Jessica is in the bathroom,” Lexi said flatly as if nothing had happened.

“Let mom in! Mama will be waiting inside!” Mrs. Anna stepped forward. Her eyes and Lexi’s eyes met.

His mother was forced to open the door wide, because he forbade his mama to enter. She would be suspicious, that was for sure.

Mrs. Anna barged in, she put the tray on the table then sat down on the sofa. “How long has Jessica been in the bathroom?” Mrs. Anna asked. Her gaze swept across the room, she had not entered his son’s room for a long time.

“Just now Ma!” he answered. “You better come downstairs, I’ll give Jessica that dinner!” he offered. It was getting scary if her mom finds out, it could be a big problem.

“Mama will wait!” Mrs. Anna glanced at the clock on the wall already almost half past nine in the evening.

There’s no other choice. Lexi chose to sit on the edge of the bed with anxious expectations. He didn’t let Jessica bang on the door and ask for help. “Please don’t,” he muttered softly.

“What?” Mrs. Anna asked, hearing Lexi’s voice.

“No Ma, Jessica if the bath is long! So just go outside, I’ll make sure Jessica finishes her dinner!” Once again Lexi tried to drive her mother out of her room.

“Hold on!” Mrs. Anna got up from her seat, then she walked towards the bathroom door.

‘It’s awful,’ Lexi thought.

Just now Mrs. Anna wanted to open the door to the sound of moaning from inside. “Open the door, please!” Jessica felt cold.

“Lexi!”Mrs. Anna shouted, trying to open the bathroom door.

“Damn” Lexi immediately took the bathroom key and opened the door.

Lexi and Mrs. Anna found Jessica sitting on the floor with shivering bodies. “Did you lock her in the bathroom?!”shouted Mrs. Anna. They approached Jessica. Lexi carried his wife, then he carried Jessica’s body on the bed.

“Jessica!” Mrs. Anna called her name while taking off the wet clothes worn by her daughter-in-law. “Lexi, call the doctor now!” Mrs. Anna shouted.

Lexi, who felt worried about her wife’s condition, immediately grabbed a phone and immediately called his personal doctor. However, Jessica forbade. “No need, I’m just cold!” she said.

Hearing the screams of upstairs, Arvel, Mr. Samuel, and the maid went up to the second floor and walked to Lexi’s room.

Lexi immediately closed the door and only allowed the maid to enter, helping her mother change clothes for Jessica. He waited outside the room.

“What happened?” Samuel asked, looking at Lexi’s face. His expression implied that Jessica was not okay. His lips were tightly closed, with his eyes closed. Worry and fear. “Jessica, what happened to her?”

“She was feeling cold, Dad.” Lexi cast a glance, guilty.

“Why? You haven’t locked her in the bathroom since!” Arvel growled. His tone sounded very angry.

Lexi was silent because Arvel’s guess was correct.

“Mr. Lexi,” the maid called, “Mrs. Anna, ask you to come into the room!” the maid who already felt the tension between Lexi and Mrs. Anna, chose to go downstairs.

Lexi walked into his room, followed by Mr. Samuel and Arvel who were worried about Jessica’s condition.

“Look, Lexi, you’re too much. You locked Jessica in the bathroom!” Mrs. Anna was mad.

“Sorry, Mom,” Lexi lowered his face. He could only bow his head deeper because he felt guilty.

“You must ask forgiveness from Jessica, not me, you are guilty of her!” Mrs. Anna looked away in irritation. “You have to apologize and promise not to do it again. Oh, my god! You’re not a kid and Jessica’s not a kid anymore! If you still act like this, mama doesn’t know what to do anymore! Maybe it’s better that Jessica isn’t with you!” Mrs. Anna massaged her forehead.

“You are evil! Another man wants to keep his wife warm, but you make her cold!” Arvel sneered, glancing at Jessica who was shivering with cold. “If not ready to be a husband! You better not get married! Poor sister-in-law has a husband like you!” he added. He deliberately cornered Lexi before he left the room.

Silent.

Mr. Samuel and Mrs. Anna looked at Lexi, they blamed him.

“I feel guilty, I promise I won’t do it again.” Lexi looked down as he sat on the edge of the bed. “Mom and Dad, get out of here. Jessica and I will solve our own problems!” Lexi told.

Mr. Samuel, who immediately understood the situation, looked at his wife and hinted to leave the room immediately.

Lexi bowed his head again, assuring her that everything would be fine.

“Good!” Mrs. Anna held back her anger. “I’ll call the doctor. Dr. Sham will here!” She was still worried about her daughter in law.

“No Ma, I’m fine, ” Jessica said softly.

“Well, Lexi, i will watch over you, once again mama see you torture Jessica, mama will not stay silent!” she threatened. She began to feel that something was wrong with her son. ‘About his second marriage? Is it true that Lexi married Jessica for love!’

Mr. Samuel was silent. However, the sight of his eyes alone was able to make Lexi feel very guilty about this incident.

Room door closed.

Lexi looked at Jessica’s face. Both of her eyes were tightly closed. Her lips were still shivering from the cold. “Are you sleeping, Jess?” Lexi asked, rubbing her.

“I haven’t slept!” Jessica answered.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“I’m sorry! I don’t like you going with Arvel, I don’t like it because you two only go together and your number can’t be reached! I’m really sorry Jess, do you forgive me?” Lexi asked. He grabbed the back of Jessica’s hand and kissed it. “Say you forgive me, or what should I do for you to forgive me!” Lexi looked very worried.

“I’m hungry, please bring me some food” Jessica asked him.

Lexi moved quickly to take the rice and satay that was brought by his mother.
