Dear Sweetheart novel

“You speak too soon, Jeremy,” Wyatt commented, “Have you forgotten Jefferson has Rayna at his side? Remember

how well she handled Faymon Group before? She’ll definitely do all she can to convince those politicians in order to

help Jefferson regain the right to become the heir to the Terblanc family.”

Upon throwing a strawberry into his mouth, he continued, “However, it’s thanks to Curtis’ lessons that she’s able to

become that powerful. Anyone would be afraid of someone as mighty as her on any side.”

Glaring at him, Jeremy spat, “You should shut your mouth! No one here thinks you’re mute!”

In response, Wyatt shrugged.

Curtis’ countenance remained unchanged as he asked, “When’s the party?”

Jeremy replied, “Two months from now.”

“Arnaud will no doubt be there too to expand his influence.” Then, Curtis’ eyes darkened before he ordered, “Tell

James the date and location of the party.”

As though Jeremy had already understood his intentions, he warned, “Yartran is Arnaud’s territory. Not only that, he

has a lot of spies and a lot of money to hire retired veterans. If James gets himself captured after you send him

there, it’s hard to say if we can extract him safely.”

“He’s going to be fine. After all, he and Theodore graduated from the same military academy,” Wyatt assured.

“Don’t worry. I’ll take good care of all matters related to his overseas trip.”

Furiously, Jeremy argued, “I just don’t want to drag another person into this matter and mess things up even

further! What are you going to do if something happens to James? And if you stupidly mention this in front of

Kristie, are you going to take responsibility if she reacts badly to the news?”

“Hey! I’m not stupid!”

“Are you going to tell me you never did anything stupid before?”

“Enough!” Curtis abruptly scowled and interrupted their bickering. “If you two don’t have anything else to do, just

go home!”

Jeremy glared at Wyatt before advising, “Curtis, you’ve been taking care of Kristie without appropriate rest for a

while now. Let me take care of her for a few days. Besides, you can’t keep ignoring your company.”

“I brought my computer here. I can deal with company matters online. You two should head back.”

Well, since he insists, I don’t think I should keep persuading him, Jeremy thought as he told Curtis to call him if the

latter needed his help. Then, he left the condominium with Wyatt.

Wyatt drove to the condominium in his car, so he offered to send Jeremy back home.

When Jeremy entered the vehicle, he noticed the small decorations in the car were gone, including the sticker with

the words “Jessie’s personal seat.”

Then, as he thought about Wyatt’s expression when they first met earlier, he realized what had happened.

Jeremy wasn’t in a hurry to leave the car when it arrived at his home. Instead, he turned to Wyatt. “You only had an

engagement with Jessica, Wyatt. It’s easy for you two to split up if she doesn’t love you anymore. I know you’re

always capable of letting things go. However, if something big really did happen between the two of you, you should

leave her amicably. Don’t make things difficult for her.”

The edges of Wyatt’s lips curved upward. “Hey, I’m always sensible when it comes to women. Don’t talk as if I can’t

or won’t let her go after breaking up with her. I won’t trouble her, all right?”

Glancing at him, Jeremy sighed. “I hope so.”

Then he left the vehicle.

Wyatt’s smile slowly vanished before he drove to Norwal City’s famous Zenisan Villa. The journey took him twenty

minutes.

He navigated into the area familiarly and parked his car in front of an independent mansion.

Then, he arrived in front of the door and pressed the doorbell.

The housekeeper glanced at him when opening the door before swiftly lowering her head and greeting him in a

slightly shaky voice. “Mr. Lopez.”

Wyatt had a feeling something bad had occurred and asked coldly, “What happened?”

“It’s Ms. Marsh. She turned the blanket into a rope and used it during her escape attempt. However, the ‘rope’

wasn’t secure, and she broke her leg after falling on the lawn…”

In response to hearing that, he glowered and rudely pushed the housekeeper aside before striding upstairs.

He couldn’t even bother to open the door properly and kicked it open. When he entered the room, he saw Jessica

was about to leave the bed. Her right leg was bruised, and her arm had plenty of scrape marks on them.

His kick naturally spooked her.

Before she could see who had stepped into the room, Wyatt dragged her outside by her wrist.

Due to her injured right leg, she was practically hauled out of the room by her arm. He was so forceful that she felt

as though her arm was about to come off.

“What are you doing, Wyatt?” The immense pain Jessica experienced caused her to take deep breaths reflexively.

She only had the guts to shout but not struggle.

It wasn’t until she arrived in the bedroom on the third floor that she was tossed onto the carpet.

Wyatt grasped her jaw and leaned his cold countenance toward her. “In the future, the housekeepers will stay by

your side for the entire day. I wonder if you can still escape when that happens!”

In response, Jessica slapped his hand and grabbed him frenziedly. “We’ve already broken up! You don’t have the

right to keep me here!”

He sneered, “What are you going to do about it? You’re trapped here.”

“B*stard!” She was so infuriated that she wanted to scratch him.

However, without hesitation, Wyatt caught Jessica’s hand and snapped it.

As she took in a deep breath in response to the pain, her cheeks paled as well. He ignored her agony and patted

her face. “Your uncle and aunt are your only kin still alive in this world, Jessica. You should learn your place.”

Gritting her teeth, Jessica glared at him. “If you want to take revenge, just kill me! Don’t touch them!”

“I can use them to threaten you, so they’re valuable.” As Wyatt spoke, he forcefully pressed her onto the carpet

and inclined closer to her. “Of course, I can’t let them go!”

She felt as though she couldn’t recognize the man brimming with hostility in front of her anymore.

Closing her eyes, she muttered, “I wronged you, Wyatt. I know nothing I say will sway you, so I won’t beg you to let

me go. I only ask that you let me make a call.”

“So you can contact Rayna?” he speculated.

When she widened her eyes, he knew his guess was correct. She’s still worrying about others instead of showing

even a bit of remorse for what she did! It’s like she’s trying to enrage me as much as she can!

“She had arrived in Yartran with Jefferson and is doing very well. You don’t need to contact her!” Wyatt tightened

his grip around her neck as if he had lost his soul. “Instead, you should think about how to return my two children!”

Jessica’s heart ached as she gazed at his reddish eyes.

“I—” Just as she tried to speak, he applied even more force to his grip, preventing her from breathing. Since her

hands had been dislocated, she couldn’t do anything but suffer with closed eyes.

Surprisingly, Wyatt let go of her in the next second. Before she could take a breather, he kissed her with

resentment, making her feel suffocated.

It took a while before Jessica managed to catch her breath. Grimacing, she pleaded, “Please… don’t do this,

Wyatt.” His humiliation is making me feel even worse than death.

Her misery and words only intensified his hatred. He was so averse to looking at her that he took off his shirt and

threw it on her face.

Jessica’s breathing was getting more difficult in the small and nearly enclosed space. Although, that agony was

incomparable to the humiliation he intentionally exacted on her.

As she closed her eyes, her tears streamed down her cheeks and wetted the carpet below her.

After an unknown amount of time had passed, the humiliation was finally over.

She couldn’t move her severely-damaged body as she lay on the carpet, her face still covered by his shirt.

Then, she heard the housekeeper’s voice and Wyatt icily relaying an order. “Make her meals more nutritious. Also,

don’t feed her too much. I don’t want her to have enough energy to escape again! If she does attempt to flee next

time, break her legs!”

“Understood, Mr. Lopez.”

“Find someone to keep an eye on her, even when she’s in the bathroom or restroom!” His steps sounded further

and further away. “Also, remember to give her a checkup regularly. Tell me when she’s in her ovulatory phase.”

His words lingered in Jessica’s ears for a long time.

His indifferent attitude and the humiliation he inflicted on her tore her heart apart while her pain-ridden body had

almost turned numb.
