Dear Sweetheart

Dear Sweetheart Chapter 549

Jessica vaguely saw the photo on the wall through the reflective surface of the knife.

She looked up and noticed a giant wedding photo hung on the wall.

In the photo, she sat on a chair and wore a beautiful wedding gown adorned with diamonds and crystals. The man was down on one knee, carefully helping her to wear her shoes.

A wedding photo?

Jessica thought of when he brought her out a few days ago and made her sign documents, pick a ring, and buy some clothes.

No wonder when I went out with Wyatt, people around me were talking about not being able to get married on a working day. He brought me to get married. He took advantage of the fact that I couldn’t see to coax me into signing a marriage certificate!

Jessica looked at the sleeping man beside her as her hands started shaking.

The torture and humiliation, as well as the words Wyatt told the housekeepers and Jacob, played through her hand repeatedly. Hatred and disappointment filled her heart.

She raised the knife above her head and stabbed it through his chest.

The moment the knife pierced through his skin, the sharp pain woke Wyatt up as he felt breathless. He opened his eyes to look at Jessica, whose face was stained with splatters of blood and eyes filled with hate.

He looked down at the knife in his chest. Jessica’s grip was tight on the knife as she trembled.

“You…” Wyatt glared at her. The pain coursing through his chest could not be compared to the disbelief flashing through his eyes. “You can see? Why…” Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Why did you stab me?

Jessica returned to her senses when she smelled the metallic scent of blood.

She watched as Wyatt’s face slowly turned pale, his eyes wide and glaring at her.

Her hand on the knife was stained by the blood flowing from his chest.

“Did I kill you?” she muttered to herself as she suddenly pulled the knife from his chest.

She turned the knife toward herself and was about to stab her chest. “I-I’ll pay you back with my life…”

However, she was stopped before the knife could pierce her skin.

Wyatt had grabbed the sharp end of the knife. He did not care that his palm was sliced open, nor did he care that blood was flowing from his arm and onto his shirt.

He gripped the knife tightly and did not allow Jessica to end her life.

“Please…” His eyes were red as he stared at her and begged, “Please don’t kill my child again.”

Jessica struggled to shrug off Wyatt’s grip on the knife.

Wyatt used up all his energy to tighten his hold on the knife.

It did not matter that Jessica’s actions caused the knife further to deepen the cut on his hand and that more blood flowed out. He was determined not to let go.

“Please… Please don’t kill my child…” he begged.

Jessica tugged a few more times. When she realized he was determined not to let go, she released her grip on the knife and took the phone from the bedside table. She stumbled out of the room without sparing him a glance.

Wyatt wanted to chase after her, but he was weak since he lost a lot of blood when Jessica pulled the knife out of his chest. His entire body was covered in blood as he watched her leave.

It was the dead of night, and the house was silent as all the housekeepers had gone to sleep.

Jessica walked down the stairs barefoot. She opened the door and left the house.

She sat at the foot of the steps. Her mind had gone blank, unsure of what had just happened.

A gust of cold wind blew past, causing her to sneeze.

She looked at her bloodstained hands and was reminded of what had happened. Her mind was also filled with the image of Wyatt lying in a puddle of his blood.

She unlocked the phone with shaky hands and looked for Jacob in the contacts list before dialing his number.

Not long after, Jacob picked up the call and scolded, “Wyatt, are you f*cking crazy? Why the f*ck are you calling me in the middle of the night? What the heck is wrong with you?”

“I-I…” Jessica’s lips trembled as she stuttered, unable to form a complete sentence.

“Jessica?” Jacob immediately sobered up when he heard her voice. He quickly asked, “Why do you have Wyatt’s phone? What happened?”

Jessica was silent.

“Jessica, speak up. What’s wrong?”

“I-I killed someone…” Jessica stuttered, “I killed someone…”

“What? Who did you kill?”

Jessica was silent once more.

After a few moments of silence, Jacob panicked and yelled, “F*ck! Did you kill Wyatt?”

Jessica could only stutter, “There’s a lot of blood…”

“F*ck!” Jacob panicked as he yelled at her, “Jessica, get yourself together! Tell me where you are right now. Is it Regal Gardens?”

Jessica did not know what she replied to Jacob. She stared at the blood on her hands as she trembled non-stop.

Jacob drove to Zenisan Villa quickly.

He knew the specific location of the villa. He stopped at the entrance and quickly got out of the car to find Jessica sitting at the door with blood on her hands.

“Jessica!”

Jessica looked up and saw that he had arrived. Fear was evident in her eyes. “I-I killed someone…”

Jacob could not care less about her as he rushed into the house and up the stairs.

It did not take him too much effort to look as he immediately saw the wide-opened door of the bedroom immediately. He rushed in and smelled the pungent stench of blood in the air. The whole bed was stained with blood, and Wyatt was lying there.

For a moment, Jacob felt like he had stopped breathing.

F*ck! What was that woman outside the house thinking when she killed Wyatt?

Jacob quickly grabbed a towel and tried to stop Wyatt’s bleeding with trembling hands.

He then called 911, reported the address, and urged them to come as soon as possible.

When he was done, he took his phone and rushed downstairs. He accidentally bumped into a housekeeper who had woken up due to all the commotion.

The housekeeper was shocked when she saw Jacob and screamed, “W-Who are you?”

“Call 911 and rush the ambulance to come quickly!” Jacob warned the housekeeper, “No matter what you see, don’t come up with nonsense!”

He then went out of the house. Luckily, Jessica was still sitting at the foot of the stairs.

He scratched his head and hurriedly asked, “Why did you do that to Wyatt? What were you thinking?”

“He killed Uncle Oliver and Aunt Danielle…” Jessica stared at her bloody hands. Her lips were trembling uncontrollably as she said, “I-Is he dead? Did I kill him—”

Jacob scolded, “Are you out of your mind? Why would Wyatt do anything to your relatives? He may be a little evil, but he’s not heartless!”

“I don’t know. I don’t know…” Jessica no longer knew who was speaking the truth. In her mind, the only thing she could think of was Wyatt lying in a puddle of his blood. “I-I’ll pay for it with my life.”

“You… D*mn it!” Jacob cursed angrily before he helped her up.

He brought her to his car and immediately drove off.

He sped on the road and soon, they arrived at the port.

The port was still brightly lit, even in the middle of the night. A few boats were still sending the goods down to the dock. There was also a cruise ship that was about to leave. A few passengers were boarding the ship, so it wasn’t quiet.

Jacob helped a dazed Jessica out of the car before he bought her a ticket to the cruise ship.

He also took out two cards and gave them to her.

“This cruise ship is bound for Valmora. It’ll stop at many countries along the way, so you can get off anywhere you want. The password for these two cards is six sixes. Go to an ATM to retrieve some money if you need it.”

Jessica’s eyes widened as she looked at Jacob. “He’s dead, isn’t he?”

“He won’t die. However, if you stay here, things will get more complicated.” He pushed her toward the ticket gate. “You should go overseas and lay low. It doesn’t matter where you go.”

At the ticket gate, the ticket collector checked Jessica’s ticket and let her through.

Jessica did not want to leave. She wanted to go back.

Jacob waved his hand at her with a serious expression. “Listen to me, Jessica. Go abroad for the moment. It’ll be the end for you if you stay here. No one will be able to protect you.”

“I…” Jessica stared at Jacob, her tears falling.

Jacob waved at her once more.

Jessica gripped the two cards tightly and looked away before she boarded the ship. She was bawling her eyes now.

She could not help but look back and watch Jacob enter his car and leave.

Jessica looked down and stared at the dried-up blood on her hands. They reminded her of what she had done.

“Jessie, do you love me? No matter what you say, I’ll believe in it. I love you, Jessie.”

All the precious moments between her and Wyatt flashed across her mind.

His tantrums, his jealousy, and his shamelessness when he kissed her…

Jessica turned around and hurried down.

I can’t leave! If I leave, then I can’t come back, and I won’t be able to see him again.

Jessica brushed past a passenger, and they pushed her. She lost footing and fell over the protective barrier and into the sea.

As she fell, her mind went blank. Wyatt’s face slowly appeared in her mind before she slowly slipped into unconsciousness.

Wyatt, you love me, right? I love you too.
