Chapter 358 Tiny Words On The Calendar (1/2)

After seeing Linda off, Jessie took a deep breath when she saw the faint smile on Ashley's face.

”Just as I said. People can't always stay in the room and have a walk to see the scenery and talk. Are you in a better mood now?”

It would be better if Jessie didn't mention it. But when she mentioned it, Ashley remembered what happened in prison that day.

Of course, she was not unhappy because she had lost the two million dollars. Although the two million was not a big deal, with her current wealth, it was easy for her to take out the money. She did not have to suffer for so long because of this kind of thing.

What made her sad was that the thing she had been looking forward to, the thing she had planned and waited for so long, ended up with such an end. After Sheila left that day, Ashley asked the prison guard to see her again and again, but the prison guard told her that Sheila didn't want to see her and would never see her again.

This meant that the man's secret would be sealed forever. As for the child she had never met, it was more like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Seeing that the smile on Ashley's face faded away in an instant, the depression that she had just exhaled was taken back. Jessie softened her tone and said, ”Ashley, what happened? You have been like this since you came back from prison that day. What happened between you and Sheila that can make you depressed for so long?”

They had known each other for a long time, so Jessie knew clearly that it was not something shameful and there was no need to hide it from her.

”I made an agreement with Sheila that after the Lantern Festival, she would tell me who that man was. The price was to give her 3100 dollars every month until she was released from prison or until she died.”

”She didn't tell you?” Jessie guessed.

”No.” Ashley shook her head. ”She didn't tell me, and she has also swindled 2million dollars from me...”

”Two million!” Jessie was shocked and almost jumped up from her seat! Two million? How long does it take a person like her to earn so much money? It must be a huge sum of money for her. ”Sheila is too bold. This is not two hundred. How can you let her deceive you?”

That's right. It's not two hundred dollars. If it were in normal times, Ashley would never being cheated by her. ”... She told me that my child was still alive, right next to his biological father. ”

”Oh my God...” Jessie was too shocked to say anything.

”I was eager to know the whereabouts of the child, so I transferred the money to Sheila first. After receiving the money, Sheila said something like sorry to me and went back to prison. She didn't tell me anything about that man from the beginning to the end. I beg to see her again. The prison guard said that she would never see me again... ”

”…… That means the man will always remain a mystery to you.” Jessie continued.
