Chapter 996 The Fight

Jessica nodded repeatedly and said, “Yes.”

In this world, there was probably no one who was more afraid of Nicholas than Jessica.

In truth, when she was young and first met Nicholas, she wasn’t afraid of him at all. In fact, she used to tease him in all sorts of ways.

Due to a severe illness, Nicholas‘ health was in decline. For most of the time, he was confined to a dimly lit room.

Jessica didn’t favor her cousin who always seemed sickly and weak. For a while, she often secretly followed Nicholas, even resorting to throwing stones at him.

Even when he had cracked open Nicholas‘ head, he had never gotten angry.

As a result Jessica grew increasingly bold.

On a rainy night, when Jessica saw Nicholas sneak back in, drenched from the rain, she couldn’t help but tease him, “Oh, where have you been? I’m going to tell Grandpa Niel that you’ve been sneaking out.”

However, she had hardly taken a few the way Nicholas looked at her. His gaze was so icy and terrifying. He looked as if he was a demon who had just escaped from hell.
