Sextuplets From Ruthless Love novel Chapter 40

"Melissa, you're so good at acting, huh? If I'd known that you have such impressive skills, I would've asked your mom to send you to the entertainment industry." Jessica sneered, lowering her eyes to look at the trail of blood on Melissa's forehead. There weren't any tinges of sympathy on her face.

"Jessica, I know that you've misunderstood me. Back then, I've always asked you to treat Sammie better. However, you hated her so much as you thought she would stop you from marrying Zachary."

As soon as Melissa finished her words, Trevor furrowed his brows. Zachary Zimmerman's name hit him so hard that it ignited a fire in his heart. "Jessica, you're such a cruel woman."

Mr. Gulliford, didn't you already know that I'm a cruel, heartless woman when you sent me away from Horington five years ago?" Jessica could no longer suppress the anger in her heart anymore. "Cruel? Isn't that the word he's been using to describe me? What's the point for him to repeat it again now? she mused internally.

The next moment, six adorable faces appeared in her mind, washing off her determination and confidence

to retort.

After heaving a sigh, she lowered her voice and said, "I didn't push her. Trevor, it wasn't me."

She didn't want to anger Trevor. After all, she was afraid that he would destroy Jessica's body.

"Trevor, Jessica got angry after I mentioned Sammie and Zachary. It's all my fault. I'm sorry..."

Melissa buried her head in Trevor's chest. Tears, as clear as crystal, rolled down the corners of her eyes.

"I'll take you to the doctor." Standing up, Trevor wrapped his arms around her. Then, he lifted his eye to glance at Jessica in disdain before leaving the living room.

Jessica stood still, supporting herself by holding the handrail on the stairs.

Trevor's gaze was too sharp that it pierced through her heart. Feeling heartbroken, she almost lost her balance.

Trevor has never even liked me, hasn't he? For some reason, he thinks that I have an affair with Zachary.

He even thinks that I've killed Sammie for Zachary. It has been five years. As expected, Trevor is still the same. The way he looked at me just now was exactly the same as how he looked at me when he didn't believe my words. It's funny how he believes everyone in the world, except for me... Jessica thought.

Turning around, Jessica curled her lips into a self-deprecating smirk and strode into the bedroom.

As soon as she lay down on the phone, her phone rang. It was a call from Monica.
