Chapter 3033

Tilting her head, Jessica looked out the window.Her eyes were squinted as she fell deep intothought.

The three of us always enjoyed our time together and cared for each other.

Even if there were any conflicts, Joan isn't the kind of person to cause any trouble.

That's not right.

Joan and Abelyn never had any conflicts before.

Unless...

Suddenly, Jessica's eyes lit up.

"Can Dustin be the reason?"

She suddenly recalled how Dustin had always liked Joan.

Larry raised his gaze at her and shook his head, indicating that he didn't agree with her supposition.No, Dustin is a responsible man.

Since he has decided to be with Abelyn, he will definitely give her a sufficient sense of security.Hence, there's no way he still harbors any feelings for Joan.

If not Dustin?What else can it be? Jessica bit her nails as she continued to rack her brains.

"Hack..."

Joan grunted all of a sudden

Actually, she had heard everything they discussed.

Larry was right.

Even she didn't know why Abelyn wanted to hurt her.

"Joan, you're awake.Are you feeling alright? Let me get the doctor.”

Just as he spoke, Larry prepared to leave the ward.

"There's no need for that," Joan replied at once.

"I'm just a little hungry” she added bashfully.

The next moment, both Larry and Jessica burst into laughter.

Given that she was thinking about food, it meant that she was fine after all.

After chatting a while longer, Larry left the ward to buy some food for Joan.

"Joan, you're finally awake.Did you know that you gave Larry a huge fright?"

Jessica explained with a smile, holding Joan's hand.

"I heard everything both of you said just now.Actually, I have no idea why Abelyn wants to harm metoo"

Joan remarked softly with her head lowered.

At that moment, Jessica was stunned.

After all, they were suspecting during their earlier discussion.

Although Larry and her suspected Abelyn to be the mastermind behind the kidnap, they couldn't betruly certain if it was her.

However, judging by Joan's reaction, she had all but verified that Abelyn was indeed guilty.

It appears that Abelyn really is the perpetrator.

A cold glint flashed in Jessica's eye as anger built up within her.

"Joan, did anything happen between the two of you? It's time to clear the air.Or else, there will onlybe more trouble ahead of us.Also, do you have any proof? We need to rely on the law to protect ourown interests and safety"

Jessica suddenly became serious.

Joan clearly understood that Jessica was looking out for her.

However, she felt the need to keep the matter under wraps.

After all, Abelyn and her used to be best friends.She even risked her life to save her once.However, little did she know that the incident was the source of Abelyn's hatred toward her."Alright, let's just leave it at that.Keep this a secret and pretend as if nothing happened? Joanmuttered softly.

How can I pretend that nothing has happened?This isn't something trivial like losing one'spurse.We're talking about losing one's life Jessica sprang to her feet with a fearsome expression onher face.

No, I will not rest until I have sought justice for Joan.

"Who does Abelyn think she is? How dare she..."

"I'm back! Joan, I got you your favorite meatloaf,"

Larry announced as he entered.

"Hurray! That's my favorite food indeed! I'm going to eat now, so let's just talk later’ Joan remarkedon purpose, worried that Larry would hear what Jessica was about to say.

Sensing Joan's intention, Jessica kept quiet.

She then took a seat on the sofa with a sullen expression.

After receiving the food, Joan took a bite and declared with a smile, "Mmm, this is delicious asalways."
