Chapter 602 His Questioning (2)
He shut his eyes tightly and took a deep breath, feeling like fate was playing a cruel joke on him.
Why?
Five years had passed, and now Jessica had to run into them again.
In a low voice, he asked, "Didn't you just say someone came to our lab recently to check out Jessica's records?"
The private investigator nodded. "Yeah, probably James's wife hired someone. Now that James has found Susan, he's likely started his own digging. But this time, we're ready. We won't let him find out what we don't want him to know."
Nathan finally let out a sigh of relief. "Make sure James doesn't find out about Colt and Cordelia. Get a few people to stay in the lab and feed him false info."
As for Rose, even if she knew Jessica had given birth abroad, she wouldn't be dumb enough to tell James.
With everything in place, Nathan's restless heart gradually calmed down.
At midnight, Jessica finally woke up.
Thinking about what had happened that night, she immediately sat up in bed, thinking it was a nightmare.
It wasn't until she saw James still standing in front of her that she realized it wasn't a dream.
Jessica was so angry that she was trembling all over. She demanded, "What do you want? You better let me go now, and I won't call the cops. Otherwise, you'll regret it!"
James stood by the bed, looking at her with a complicated expression.
This version of Jessica was unfamiliar to him, even infuriating.
But their two years together back then were far from pleasant.
So many schemes, so much betrayal and manipulation, had created a huge rift between them.
Since she had lost her memory, maybe this was a chance given by fate for them to start over.
So, James didn't mention her memory loss. Instead, he softened his tone and said, "I'm sorry, Susan. I didn't think this through. You don't need to be afraid. I won't hurt you."
Jessica didn't believe his lies at all. Not hurt her? He had forcibly kissed her and molested her!
She sneered and mocked, "So, to you, a forced kiss and molestation don't count as harm, right?"
"When did I molest you?"
James felt incredibly wronged. He sighed and said, "You look a lot like someone I used to know. I mistook you for her. It won't happen again."
Jessica looked at him warily and suspiciously, not knowing what kind of game he was playing.
So, she said coldly, "Fine, I accept your apology. In that case, can I leave now? Or you can leave first, either way."
James felt a dull ache in his heart, a sadness slowly spreading.
Did she hate him this much, even with her memory gone?
He forced himself to stay calm and said lightly, "Actually, I have a favor to ask. My name is James. My son came to see you a few days ago. His mother might have caused some trouble for you. I'm here to apologize on her behalf."
Jessica finally showed a look of realization and couldn't help but laugh mockingly. "So, you kidnapped me and flattered me just to get me to save your son?"
James looked at her, speechless. What did she mean by 'flattered'?
Jessica had really changed after losing her memory.
