Chapter 2499

Jessica looked at her suitcase on the floor.

Deep down, she felt an indescribable sense of exhaustion.

After working overnight and entertaining Chairman Lennox, she was met with an accident and
drenched in the rain. Instead of getting some rest when she got home, she was tortured for a long time.

Not only was she exhausted, but she did not feel good as well.

In fact, her health had always been alright. However, she had not had proper rest in the past few days,
so she was certain that she was going to fall sick the next day.



“Okay. I won’t take my suitcase away, but can I go to the hospital?”

Jessica lifted her head and asked him, “Or do I still need to serve you with my bleeding body? I’m sorry,
but I’m worried that I’]] die of exhaustion on the bed. You probably won’t feel heartbroken even if I die
anyway. But if I die on your bed, you might have to go to jail. If you don’t think for yourself, you should
do it for your parents and sister.”

She looked at him composedly. In her dark eyes, he was like a merciless devil. Forrest felt a chill run
down his spine. Was he that scummy to her? She was already bleeding. Could he bring himself t o
continue to torture her to death?

A deep sense of sarcasm hit him. Forrest’s cold, thin lips quivered. “Get lost.” Jessica staggered out.

She drove to a private hospital. When she did the medical examination, the female doctor darted a
glance at Jessica. “With your condition, do you need me to… call the police?”



Such a serious injury would only happen when a woman was abused.

«.No need.” Jessica could see the pity in the doctor’s eyes. She knew that the doctor might think that
she had met someone bad.



That was understandable. Would a husband do such a thing to his wife?

She felt nothing but sadness.

Was it true that a forced marriage would not bring happiness?

Was she wrong? Jessica was in the hospital for an IV infusion until 5:00 a.m.

She was so exhausted that she fell asleep. Once the IV bag was empty, the husband of the patient
beside her pressed the bell for her. “Thank you.” Jessica thanked the couple, who looked to be in their
30s. The woman lying on the bed was not the pretty sort, and her husband looked ordinary.
Nevertheless, they had a good relationship. Especially when the woman was having an IV infusion, the
man insisted on sitting beside her and staying awake even though he was sleepy. Upon hearing
Jessica’s voice, the man looked up and flashed her a pure smile. “No trouble at all.” Jessica left after
the IV infusion. However, it suddenly hit her that she had forgotten to take her medicine. When she
returned to the ward, she overheard the woman saying, “The woman sleeping beside me just now
looks pretty.” “No matter how pretty she is, I only have eyes for you,” the man said with a grin. “Fine.
I’m not even jealous. I just find her pitiful. I t was so late, and she was having an IV infusion alone. She
didn’t look well either.” “Yeah. Maybe she’s not married.”

“A pretty woman like her must have strict criteria for her other half,” the woman said. “That’s why it’s
good to be ordinary -looking people like us. Women don’t need to marry wealthy. What matters is that



they can lead a comfortable life, and most importantly, the husband has to be considerate. My husband
is the best.”

“Wifey, you’re wonderful too.”

Jessica closed her eyes. Only after standing for a few minutes at the door did she walk in to take the
medicine before she left.
