Chapter 100: Your purpose?
After the other parties left the dining hall, a heavy silence fell on the remnants, each bracing themselves for the inevitable discussion. With a slight movement, each adjusted to a more comfortable position.
Richard sighed deeply as his gaze rested on Jessica, his countenance serious.
"I think it’s time to stop keeping Davis out of the loop. We’ve all been through too much already." Richard said, casting a subtle glance at Davis before continuing.
"Since this entire ordeal started with him, he deserves to know how far things have gone, and how much you have done then we can plan ahead." He concluded looking at the duo.
Richard had always wondered if Jessica had fallen in love with Davis which is the reason why she makes decisions that only favours him. He can’t recall how many times Jessica had ousted him out of the bed in the middle night to handle matters related to Davis.
He had skipped his lunch severally in the bid to play the ghost and buy out the shares in Desmond and Aaron’s house.
It is even more ridiculous that because Davis had started going out, Jessica had arranged for shadow guards to secretly protect him.
Whenever there is a trending newa about the Allen family, Jessica will amplify the case of Desmond and reduce the searchlight on Davis. Isn’t that being over protective.
Jessica sighed at Richard’s statement. She understood very well what he meant but then she had gone such length to help him not because he must be aware but she didn’t want to see him hurt.
As for the specific reason she don’t really know. But then she is scared to let him know. Davis had been through a lot and one thing he had come to understand is people approaching him with a motive.
She is worried that he will only see her effort as a gesture with motive. Though, she had entered that marriage with a motive but as they continued to spend time together her own objectives and goal became blurring.
