92. 92. Sooner or Later I will Die in Your Hands
Jessie got closer and kissed his lips and chin that was covered in stubble.
When she went down again, he suddenly grabbed her thin arm and said with a deep look,” Your mouth is full of injuries. Why are you moving around!”
“Just a little scratch. It doesn’t hurt anymore.” She raised her head, her eyes full of love.
She used one hand to tug at her long hair and kissed her again. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Although Alex tried his best to put on an expressionless face,(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com) his body had already betrayed him.
He reached out to help her hold her long hair, which would occasionally drift down and cause trouble, and looked down at her with a serious gaze.
Jessie did not have any experience. Her small face was completely red. Alex saw her hesitant look and the remaining anger in his chest disappeared. His mood became better. “If you are afraid, come down.”
Jessie pursed her lips and shook her head.
“Then continue!” Alex’s gaze was as hot as fire, as if he wanted to burn her to ashes.
The deep affection in his eyes was extremely rare, causing her heart to become even more gentle like a pool of spring water.
She could not help but want to do more things in order to placate him.
She had never done these things that she did today before. She had never even seen them before. She was just like him, exploring and abandoning all shame.
Alex’s forehead was covered in sweat because of her. He could not help but hold her shoulders tightly.
After everything was over, she kept coughing. Alex pulled her up and held her in his arms. His voice was hoarse and ashamed. “Are you very uncomfortable?”
Jessie’s face was red and she shook her head. She shyly got up and went to the bathroom to rinse her mouth before coming back. He had already changed the sheets.
She leaned into his arms again and pressed her hot face against his strong muscles.(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com) “You’re not angry anymore?”
Alex pulled the blanket over her and wrapped her up. He helped her cover the long hair on her forehead behind her ears and lifted her face to kiss her smooth forehead.
Jessie reached out to hug him and found a more comfortable way to lean against him. Hearing his strong and powerful heartbeat, endless sweetness and honey rose in her heart
She said in a low voice, “Thank you!”
She thanked him for appearing and thanked him for not making her as unfortunate as Yura. ..
Alex understood the meaning of her words. His thin lips curled into a smile and his arms hugged her tighter, “You can move to Mountain and River Residence tomorrow.”
Jessie raised her head in his arms and looked at him with her beautiful eyes. “Can you hear what I think?”
Alex was in a good mood at the moment. He wrapped his arm around her waist and lazily acknowledged.
“I will find a store and open it first. Then at least I will not be a jobless person. I will follow you to see the children’s grandparents and then… I will go to Mountain and River Residence with you.” At the end of her sentence, her face turned red again.
“I’ll make a store for you tomorrow.”
She acted like a spoiled child, “I want to look for it myself.”
If the apartment he rented to her cost 10,000 yuan, then the shop he rented to her would definitely cost a lot of money. If she wanted the store he gave her for free, she would be under too much pressure. But if she paid the rent according to the store he found, then the price would definitely scare her to death.
“Okay.” He agreed and then laughed softly, “You can start planning for the two of us. This awareness is worthy of praise.”
She blushed from his words, but then she couldn’t help but say something that made her blush even more. “I’m not going to Mountain and River Residence right now, you can come and stay here tonight…”
This sentence made Alex’s blood boil again. He lifted her chin and laughed mockingly. “Do you want me to die?”
Jessie did not understand, but he had already recovered. “I will die in your hands sooner or later!”

Rick came out of president’s office and returned to his office. He saw Old Madam from the Laurent family sitting on the sofa in the guest area.
He quickly walked over. “Old Madam, are you here to find boss? He is in his office now.”
Grandma Restall put down the coffee in her hand and smiled warmly at him. She waved at him. “Come, Rick, come and sit.”
This way of addressing made Rick’s scalp tingle,
He braced himself and walked over. He obediently sat down on the sofa, but only managed to sit down by half. He was ready to run away at any time.
“Rick, our Alex has a bad temper. You have worked hard with him for so many years. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)For work, you don’t even have time to find a girlfriend, right?” Old Madam said earnestly, “Don’t worry. This year is the new year. I promise that I will give you an extremely long holiday.”
“Thank you, Old Madam.”
She said, “You don’t need to thank me. This is what you deserve.” Old Madam changed the topic. “Rick, I came today because I have a small matter to ask you.”
Rick broke out in cold sweat. He kept feeling like “You ask.”
Grandma Restall moved closer to him and looked mysterious. “Where does that Miss Jessie live?”
“What?” Rick knew Old Madam must have other intentions. He shook his head without thinking. “I don’t know.”
Old Madam did not ask boss, but instead came to ask him. It was 100% certain that boss had not prepared to bring her home. How could he, a little assistant, dare to say anything? If the Boss knew that he leaked the information, then he would be betraying him. He would be committing a heinous crime!
“Do you really not know or are you pretending not to know?”
“I really don’t know.”
“Rick, I think you are not young anymore. You don’t have a girlfriend yet. How about this? In the future, you can leave the matter of finding a girlfriend to me. I’ll arrange a blind date for you right away, and I guarantee that I’ll arrange a blind date for you every day until you’re satisfied. How about that?”
Rick was speechless.
Not long after that… Old Madam left with satisfaction.
Rick looked at the closed office door and wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. He only told her that Jessie was now living in boss’s house. He did not tell her exactly where she was. Boss had so many properties in R City, so Old Madam shouldn’t have gone to every place to search. Even if she did, she would not be so lucky to see Jessie, right? So, this could not be considered as betrayal, right?
Sally was on vacation today, so Jessie pulled her along to look for a shop.
She looked at the few people she found online. It was either the price was too high or the location was too remote. Otherwise, it would be too small and not suitable.
The two of them walked until their legs were sore. They went to a milk tea shop by the road and ordered two cups of milk tea. While drinking, they rushed to the next shop.
Jessie’s phone rang. It was an unknown number.
“Hello!”
“Hello, is this Miss Jessie? I have a shop here. Are you interested in coming over to take a look?”
Jessie was happy, “Is that so? Where is your shop?”
The other party gave her the address and Jessie was stunned for a moment before she smiled and said, “I’m sorry, I want to rent in this area of Tianji Residence.”
“You should come over and take a look first. The shop must be opened in a place with good business. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)There is a school area near Tianji Residence, so you plan to make coffee and pastries. Of course, it will be the high-end consumer group in Cheng’an District that is more suitable.”
Jessie heard what he said. She had been looking for a place nearby for many days and had not found a suitable place. This was the first time in her life that she did business. She could not open her shop at a place where she could only make losses and not earn money.
Although it was not as close to the school in the Tianji Residence, the journey from Cheng’an District to the school was only about half an hour. It was not very far.
Furthermore, she would be staying in the Mountain and River Residence in the future, and that place would be even further away from the school.
“Then let’s go and take a look.” Sally also urged when she heard that.
Jessie thought for a while and agreed to take a taxi to Cheng’an District together.
The shop was quite big and the renovation was also very good. There were two separate small rooms at the back that could accommodate people. If they rented it, Jessie did not need to renovate it. She only needed to buy equipment, tables, and chairs to open the shop.
TOO
Both of them were quite satisfied. The person who brought them here was a young man who was quite energetic. Judging from his temperament, he did not look like the landlord or the real estate agent they had seen before. He was more like a white-collar elite in a high-end office building nearby.
“How much is it for one month?” Jessie walked around and the more she looked, the more satisfied she was. When she asked for the price, she felt a little guilty. This kind of place and this kind of shop, according to her previous experience, the rent for a month was at least twenty to thirty thousand yuan.
That man seemed to be even more guilty than her. He paused for a few seconds before slowly stretching out his palm.
Jessie and Sally cried out at the same time, “Fifty thousand?!”
The man was stunned for a moment and then smiled coyly, “Is the price high? How about ten thousand yuan?”
What he did not dare to say was, actually, he stretched out his hand to mean 5,000 yuan… But when he thought about it, the rental of the houses nearby was more than five thousand dollars, that would be too easy to arouse suspicion, so he followed their intentions and pretended to be saying fifty thousand dollars.
Jessie felt that something was wrong. She walked forward and circled around him. With a cold face, she stared into his eyes and asked probingly, “You are not really the landlord, right?
“Yes, I don’t think he looks like the landlord. Let me ask you, is this store really yours?” Sally also followed and raised her arms to ask.
Damn it, they even specially took a taxi to come here. Could it be that they met a swindler?
“Of course this store is mine. Don’t tell me you all treat me as a swindler?” The man said anxiously, “I’m in a hurry to go back to my hometown. That’s why I rented the shop I bought. Otherwise, I would have continued my business. I wouldn’t have rented it to you!”
Jessie looked at his anxious red face and felt that he did not seem like a real liar.
Seeing that they were still doubtful, the man hurriedly took out the property deed and land use certificate from the briefcase and handed them to the two of them to take a look.
Jessie and Sally looked at it once and found that it was real. The name on the property deed was Sammy Smith.
“Sorry, Mr. Sammy, we misunderstood.” Jessie smiled and apologized frankly, “Do you really rent it to us for ten thousand yuan per month?”
“It’s fine. It’s mainly because I bought this shop myself in the past to do business. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)Now that I have something to do, I have to go back to my hometown to rent it out. I have never rented itt o anyone before. I’m a new landlord too.” The man’smiled shyly. “I’m really in a hurry to do it now. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be so cheap. It’s like this. I hope I can sign the contract for a year a s soon as I sign it. Do you think there’s a problem?”
“So you want us to pay the rent for a year in one go?”
“If you think you can’t take it out in one go, you can pay eight thousand a month.”
Jessie was speechless.
If she did not see the property deed, she would really still treat him as a swindler. Otherwise,
wouldn’t this be a pie falling from the sky in broad daylight?
Seeing that she didn’t speak, the man was extremely anxious. He scratched his head and gritted his teeth: “Can you give me 5,000 dollars? If you are still afraid that I am a liar, you can start your business first. You can postpone it for a few months or you can pay the rent anytime you want, OK?” Jessie and Sally did not know what to say.
