Chapter 12 The Prison in Her Heart
Chapter 12 The Prison in Her Heart
Jessica scolded him in a lower voice, but Jason grinned and made a face and stuck out his tongue at
her.
Jessica noticed that Martha was a bit embarrassed.
Then she got up from the sofa.
And then threw Jason into Martha’s arms.
Then she walked to the bathroom and said, “Mom, I will go myself. And you take care of Jason at
home.”
Martha had a look at Jason in her arms and signed.
“Fine, but if you get any information, remember to call me.”
The prison in Chicago
The wall of the prison was very high.
It was cloudy and windy.
It seemed as if it would rain.
The jailer led Jessica in front and they passed through a long way.
Then they went through several iron gates.
Finally, she got to a quiet room.
“You can have a seat, and the man you will see will come later.” The jailer pointed to the chair which
was opposite the table.
Jessica nodded her head and sat down.
She was sitting there with a heavy heart.
Her fingers were even trembling.
The Iron Gate was open and the other jailer came in holding a man who was old by his side.
“Henry Wilson, your daughter Jessica Wilson is here to see you. Sit down.”
Jessica looked up.
The tears filled with her eyes when she saw an old man whose hair was all grey and was wrapped in
layers of gauze on his hands and legs. Besides his face, cheekbone and mouth had got some bruises.
She didn’t expect that her father was so much older than before.
“Dad.”
With the help of the jailer, Henry Wilson sat down on the chair opposite Jessica.
His facial expression was distorted by pain.
Henry peeked at Jessica but he didn’t feel happy.
“Jinx!”
He reprimanded her in a husky voice at the moment he opened his mouth.
Jessica was shocked.
Then she gazed at Henry.
He didn’t change. And he still looked at her with disdain and resentment.
Jessica didn’t speak a word.
“You bring me bad luck when you were back. Look at the injuries all over my body.” Henry pointed to
the blood which wasn’t dried on his face with his trembling fingers. “I ask them why they hit me, you
know what? They told me to ask you!” Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
Jessica was frightened and her face turned pale.
“What the hell did you do and get me into the trouble?” Henry was angry.
Seeing that Jessica didn’t say anything, he was angrier, “you are the one who let me in jail! You are
such an un-filial daughter! All you know is just to get me into the troubles! Jessica, I was so regretful
that your mother had given birth to you!”
Jessica opened her eyes wide.
Her heart was dead.
How could she think that her father had always let go of his hatred to him in five years?
How could she think that her father would not care about what had happened in the past when he was
in jail for five years?
Actually, those were just her wishful thinking.
And she realized that the prison wasn’t horrible.
But the prison in human’s heart was horrible.
Jessica sneered.
“You are the one who broke the law! You put all the blame on me just because I am not willing to
someone’s mistress! Why don’t you ask Anna Wilson to do that for you? She is your daughter, how
about me?”
Henry was a bit guilty when he heard the name Anna Wilson.
“You son of bitch! You are not qualified to compete with Anna! Anna won’t let me suffer from anything.
But you are not! You only get me into troubles!”
Jessica sneered and she was a bit sad.
She took a deep breath.
Then she calmed down, “seriously? I think I should have come here today.”
“You are right! You shouldn’t have come. I don’t want to see you! Ask your mom to come. I need to ask
her how she teaches you! Is she happy when I die?”
Henry was about to slap Jessica when he saw Jessica was that indifferent, but the jailer stopped him.
“Don’t bother my mom!”
Speaking of her mom, Jessica was nervous and worried, “she just recovered, and she can’t endure so
much irritation.”
Henry sneered, “You’d better keep that in mind. I will be discharged from the prison soon. I don’t want
to be killed in the prison because of you. If you really love your mom, then don’t get me any troubles.”
Jessica got used to such words since she was a kid.
However, such words would still like a knife which was cutting her heart.
Jessica gave a serious look at Henry, and she clenched her fingers firmly.
“Don’t bother my mom! I will take care of it myself.” Then she got up, “take care. I will see you next
time.”
Then she stood upright.
Then she passed the jailor and didn’t give a look at Henry anymore.
She walked out of the room at a fast pace…
Jessica kept her spine straight until she got out of the gate of the jail and the Iron Gate was closed.
She leaned against the wall feebly and her face turned pale.
It had been so many years!
Her father had been insulted her for so many years!
She wouldn’t support such a family if her mother didn’t love his father so much, and she wasn’t born to
be their daughter.
The tears were dripping from her eyes…
And her heart was like the prison with high walls built around it.
That was the prison in her heart where she was sentenced to life imprisonment.
