Chapter 130
Instantly, Jessica frowned. She never cared how her children spent their money, but she had to know where their money came from.
They were still too young, and every single one of them had their own skills. She would regret it for the rest of her life if they accidentally went astray.
"Where did the money come from?"
Jessica narrowed her eyes at Asher and sounded angry.
"Where did you get the money from?"
Her tone was more stern than earlier, so they were frightened.
At that moment, Faye and the others gathered around. No one dared to make any sound.
"I earned it by helping someone on the internet to make an app. Mommy, if you're angry with it, I won't do that anymore. I only wanted to make more money to help lessen your burden and buy more goodlooking clothes for Bennet and the others," Asher replied softly. It was true that he earned it after
helping Bennett's classmate's father to make an app.
Jessica's heart softened when she heard what Asher said.
"I'm sorry, Asher. I was being too strict with you, but I did that only because I was afraid you did something bad. Helping other people to make apps is a good thing, and wanting to buy clothes for your younger siblings means that you're kind. But Asher, you must remember that you must never compromise anyone's safety and interest, okay?"
"Mm. Don't worry, Mommy. I understand."
Asher nodded obediently as his big eyes lit up.
"Good boy. Go play with your brothers and sister. Don't sit in front of your computer all day. You'll hurt your eyes."
Jessica was very gentle. She was only afraid that her kids would acquire bad habits. However, she was lenient with anything else.
She smiled as she watched her kids walk back into their rooms obediently.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.
She walked toward the door as she wondered, "That's odd. Everyone I know in Horington is here. Who else can it be?"
She reached out to pull the door and saw a cold and charming face before her.
"M-Mr. Gulliford?"
She looked at him in surprise. How did he know my address? I took great measures to keep it a secret, she thought. Trevor looked at Jessica's face and smiled.
No matter how you try to keep it from me, there isn't anyone that I can't find in Horington, he thought.
"Are you feeling better? I'm here to visit."
He pushed the door open and walked in without waiting for her to react.
Subconsciously, she turned and
walked into the bedroom and told her kid
to stay inside. After that,
she closed the door when she left.
I mustn't let him see the kids, or else everything will be over! she thought.
Trevor knew what she was doing when he saw her movements.
However, he pretended that he didn't know anything. "What were you doing? You look busy."
Yolanda heard that someone was there and walked out of her room. When she saw Trevor, her face turned white. "Why is he here?" she thought.
On the contrary, Trevor was casual. He waved at her. "Hi, Yolanda. It's been a while."
Yolanda was one of his buddies, so they knew each other.
"Longtime no see, Mr. Gulliford. What brings you here to my humble home despite your busy schedule?"
She was under extreme
psychological pressure because she
had to help keep Jessica's secret while pretending not to know anything.
"I'm just here to visit Jessica and to see if she's feeling
better."
He was different from them since he was feigning ignorance.
"I'm feeling better now, Mr. Gulliford. Even so, you don't have to come all the way here yourself, right?"
Jessica felt a little awkward because she was standing there and didn't know what to say.
"What are you saying?"
He took two steps toward her and pinned her against the wall with his raised hand.
"You're not just anyone. To me, you're special. After all, you're mine. Even if you were to lose a strand of hair, would be sad for hours. So, this is serious."
