Chapter 25
Alvaro snatched the phone and without a word, he helped her hang up.
“I had already decided not to go, so why did I bother listening to her rambling on?”
Jessie smiled at him and said, “I was just curious.”
“What are you curious about?”
How crazy would an unqualified mother be when she has lost her only support?
Alvaro raised an eyebrow but didn’t say anything.
He was not interested in Liam’s family matters at all.
Jessie saw him like this and laughed even more heartily.
“Alvaro, did you know that a barbecue restaurant opened in the East district?”
Alvaro was taken by surprise by her question, and he shook his head in astonishment.
This was the first time Jessie saw him with this expression, and she inexplicably found it amusing. Her courage also instantly grew.
She laughed and pinched his face.
“You’re so silly! What I meant was, I wanted to have barbecue!”
Jessie turned around to tidy up, leaving Alvaro alone to reflect belatedly.

“Boss, are we still going to remove Liam’s oxygen tube?”
Alvaro’s subordinates quietly approached.
He covered his
“Boss? Bo and chuckled, without responding.
Alvaro immediately gave him a disdainful look and said, “You fool, get lost!”
Alvaro turned around and chased after Jessie in the direction she had disappeared.
That night, Jessie not only had a barbecue, but also secretly tasted a man’s first kiss.
Alvaro held Jessie tightly in his arms, wishing he could bind her to himself.
He kept kissing Jessie repeatedly.
Jessie was amused by his appearance, but she also willingly played along with him without any disdain.
Alvaro tightly held her head, with a slight moisture at the corners of his eyes.

Jessie wouldn’t understand how long he had been waiting for this day.
Back then, Liam was not the only one who was bullied; he was always
alone.
He was also fortunate to have been protected by Jessie.
However, at that time, she didn’t have him in her eyes, Alvaro could only silently stand behind her, guarding her.

Fortunately, Liam didn’t appreciate it, and fortunately, she was willing to give him a chance.
Liam had been lying in the hospital for over half a month, and Alan had come to see Jessie more than once, but he was always blocked by Alvaro’s men at the door.
Although she was in New York, nobody could see her without Alvaro’s permission.
When Alan saw Liam’s test result, he still couldn’t believe the doctor’s diagnosis.
“Wasn’t it just temporary blindness at first? How is it possible to never be able to see again?”
“Our examination results are like this. If you have any questions, you can go to a higher–level hospital for a follow–up visit.”
Upon realizing that he could no longer see, Liam appeared rather calm.
As soon as he woke up, he was informed that Briley had passed away due to the severity of his injuries, despite the rescue efforts.
She had no family, so the doctor had to ask Liam, who was admitted to the hospital at the same time as her.
The Foley family completely collapsed under Alvaro’s pursuit and harassment. The company went bankrupt and was liquidated, with a pile of external debts left unpaid. Ryker even ran away early to hide from the debt.
In order to treat him, Hannah sold her jewelry.
Liam didn’t even go to take a last look at Briley, he got up in a disheveled state, ignoring Hannah’s calls, and insisted on leaving the hospital.

He didn’t tell anyone, during the half month he was in a coma, he had a terrible nightmare.
He dreamt that his original plan had been perfectly executed.
He pretended that the plane had crashed and faked his death on the agreed day, but in reality, he had run away with Briley.
They went to many countries, many cities, and saw the scenery that Jessie had always wanted to see. They also ate the authentic local dishes that Jessie had always wanted to eat.
And when he was in his forties, Briley suddenly expressed his desire to see the Northern Lights. They held hands and embarked on a journey to Iceland.
He used to play with Briley very happily. Inside the outdoor tent, they were still fooling around, but accidentally collapsed the tent.
He didn’t expect to see Jessie in this situation.
In her forties, she looked much older than Briley.
A head full of white hair, and a face wrinkled with fear when seeing him again.
He couldn’t express the complex emotions in his heart.
He had actually been secretly keeping an eye on the news in New York. He knew that Jessie was not doing well, struggling alone to support the Foley family business. For him, she fought against outsiders, fought against the Foley family relatives, and even fought against that smiling tiger, Ryker.
He knew all of this, yet he still enjoyed the sense of superiority that came from a woman silently giving herself for him.

Waking up from a nightmare, he was horrified and drenched in cold sweat, but not because of that overly realistic dream.
But it was because Jessie looked at her for the last time!
When Liam stumbled to Alvaro’s doorstep, before he could barge in, he was informed by the security guard that the owner of the house had already sold it.
“Where did she go?”
Liam was in a panic, but he couldn’t get any answers.
On the plane, Jessie’s ring finger was adorned with a dazzling and sparkling diamond ring.
She leaned her.
Alvaro’s body, listening to the sound of his
heart beating with joy.
Looking into her eyes, they were filled with tenderness.
“Jessie, why did you want to see the Northern Lights?”
Jessie tightened his hand, with a smile of happiness in his eyes.
“Because we wanted the whole universe to twinkle for us!”
