Forced Marriage: My Wife, My Redemption by Lilyheart

Chapter 114: It will get easier with time...

Davis’s gaze snapped to Jessica, who stood at the side arranging the materials that will be used for the treatment, deliberately averting her eyes from his.

She hadn’t expected Bella to throw her under the bus like this. Judging by the raised brow and growing smirk on Davis’s face, it was clear she wouldn’t be able to wiggle her way out of this one.

"Bella, can you remind me of that name again?" Davis asked, his smile widening with amusement.

Bella chuckled knowingly. Davis had always been sharp, and when it came to anything related to Jessica, he was even more attentive.

It wasn’t a secret that Bella had always admired Jessica’s skills and would praise her endlessly making it more easier for her to tell people of her good but that doesn’t mean she isn’t cautious.

But now, things were different. The two are now husband and wife. If Davis wanted to know, it was best for Jessica to tell him herself.

"Mr. Allen, it’s best if you ask your wife. Maybe she will tell you about it, along with other things you need to know," Bella replied, casting an assertive glance between the two.

Davis nodded in affirmation. He had already made up his mind. Without Bella saying it outright, he knew Jessica was hiding something. But if he pressed too hard now, she might retreat further. Still, getting answers was the best course of action.

Bella glanced at Jessica, whose sharp glare could have burned a hole through her. She smiled in amusement before returning her attention to her task, a means for her to pretend to be busy.

Jessica sighed inwardly. She had only agreed to treat him, not to talk about her other identities.

Yet, from the look on Davis’s face, she knew he wouldn’t let it slide so easily.

He turned his gaze to Jessica. She could feel the weight of his lingering stare, intense and unwavering.
