Episode 20

Mario left, worried and furious because Harry always blamed him for everything.

"Now everything is my fault, if they fight I pay for the broken dishes and if they kidnap Jessica, it's also my fault if nothing happens to Jessica because hell will break loose, that demon is capable of setting England on fire for his little devil because although he insists on denying it, he is in love."

Indeed, Harry was furious, the party ended and no one knew why.

Elsewhere in England.

Oliver Thompson sat in a chair with a scowl on his face.

"Mr. Thompson, Mrs. Bennett is on her way."

"Perfect, now Harry Bennett will know what I'm capable of."

Meanwhile, Jessica woke up a little dazed.

"Who are you?"

No one answered, they just stared at her with unfriendly expressions.

"DAMN IT, DON'T TELL ME YOU'RE MUTE, WHO ARE YOU?" 😠😠😡

The man next to her was startled by such a shout and the other one punched him hard, busting his lip.

"YOU DAMN BASTARD," she said and spat at him.

The man became enraged and hit her again, this time the blow was so strong that it knocked her unconscious.

They arrived at the place and chained her hands while she was still unconscious.

Then they threw a bucket of cold water on her and she woke up.

"Damn you," she said weakly.

An hour passed until Jessica saw some highly polished shoes approaching her with long, elegant strides.

The man, seeing the beautiful woman hanging, became enraged.

"ARE YOU DEAF OR WHAT? WHO TOLD YOU TO TIE HER UP AND BEAT HER? GET HER DOWN IMMEDIATELY AND SIT HER DOWN."

"I don't want Mrs. Bennett to think we don't know how to treat a lady."

"Finally, someone with a brain."

Oliver raised an eyebrow and smiled as he got closer, he saw her busted lip and the bloodstain which infuriated him.

"WHICH ONE OF YOU HIT HER?"

"It was me, sir, it's just that..."

A shot rang out, straight into the man's right hand.

"THIS WILL TEACH YOU TO NEVER HIT A WOMAN 😠😠😠"

The man just screamed in pain.

While Jessica had only covered her ears.

"I thought you'd be crying."

"What for? It wouldn't make you let me go, would it?"

"Well, well, Harry Bennett's wife has guts."

"Let me guess, you kidnapped me because you think that grumpy will come running to my rescue. 😂😂😂😂 How naive.

Bennett's beautiful wife came out feisty.

"I propose a deal. I know perfectly well that your marriage to Bennett is a contract. You are the payment for a gambling debt of your father, George Brown. So my proposal is this, I will help you get rid of your fake marriage in exchange for you helping me get rid of Bennett."

"You want me to kill him?"

"No, I'll do that. I want you to hand him over to me."

😂😂😂 "To be the grumpy's enemy, you lack intelligence. Firstly, even though I loathe Harry, I would never betray him. Secondly, if you kidnapped me to ask him for something in return or for him to come for me, that's not going to happen. He hates me and I hate him. And lastly, you are wasting your valuable time with me."

"Interesting, you're not only fierce but loyal."

"Let's call him and see if he cares what happens to his beautiful wife in my hands."

📲 "My dear Harry, guess who I have in front of me."

📲 "I already know you have Jessica Brown."

📲 "You guessed it, what would you be willing to do to have her back?"

📲 "What makes you think I want her back? (I told you, the grumpy one hates me as much as I hate him)"

Harry heard the voice of his haughty little devil and breathed easily, knowing she was fine.

📲 "Relax, grumpy, don't come, you know that the contempt between you and me is 100 percent mutual, let this imbecile finish what you started."

Harry felt a dagger in his chest, he knew she was referring to the time he threatened to kill her.

📲 "You heard her, she knows me very well and knows that I wouldn't lift a finger for her. So do whatever you want."

With that, he hung up, leaving Oliver Thompson confused as he looked at Jessica, who was very amused.

"I told you, Harry Bennett is much more miserable, cruel and cold than you are."

"I don't understand why he's still with you if he's not willing to do anything for you."

"It's simple, I'm his amusement, the one he can use whenever he wants, that's why he's still married to me and because he enjoys being cruel and humiliating everyone around him, I guess that's where you and him are alike, even though you hate each other to death, you're both equally miserable..."
