Chapter 809 Give It A Try

Night had fallen.

Jessica was sound asleep in her bed when the sudden ringing of what sounded like a phone echoed through her room.

She was startled awake in an instant. As she switched on the light to look around, the noise disappeared again.

“Strange. Was it a dream?”

She switched off the light and fell asleep again.

An hour later, just as she had drifted back to sleep, the urgent ringing echoed through her room once

more.

This time, she was quite certain it wasn’t a dream.

“Where did that sound come from? Did it come from my phone?”

”

Jessica picked up her phone, switched it off, and then went back to sleep.

Shortly after she fell asleep, a strange wailing sound suddenly echoed near her ear.

Jessica felt a certain chill creeping up her back while she was half–asleep.

She woke up in alarm and was unable to fall back asleep. She curled up inside her blanket.

“Is there anything weird here?”

She was entirely unable to fall asleep.

The next day, after having breakfast, Cecilia was about to leave for work, but Jessica was still asleep.

Cecilia applied the principle of treating others as they treated her. She took a picture of herself going to the office alone and posted it on her Instagram.

The caption read: Jessica is sleeping so peacefully. I couldn’t bring myself to wake her. So, it’s another day of going to

work alone.

She knew that when Elena had some free time, she would often browse through Instagram.

Who doesn’t know how to complain?

Cecilia made this status update visible to only Elena.

Jessica was roused from sleep by Elena’s incessant calls. When she first picked up the phone, her true

nature was revealed.

“Who is it? You’re disturbing my sleep.”

“It’s already ten, and you’re still sleeping?” Elena was clearly displeased.

Upon hearing Elena’s voice, Jessica instantly snapped to alertness. Glancing at her phone, she saw that it was already past ten o’clock.

There had been constant noises in the room last night, which caused her to have a poor night’s sleep.

“Aunt Elena, I’m sorry. I’m getting up right now.”

Jessica rose quickly from her bed and then began a thorough search around the room, trying to pinpoint the source of the strange noise she had heard.

Strangely enough, she couldn’t replace it.

She had no choice but to give up and catch a ride to the office.

By the time she arrived, Cecilia had already finished her work for the day. “Jessica, what took you so long? I’m about to get off work.”

Rather than feeling embarrassed, Jessica retorted, “Cecilia, something’s wrong with your house. There were constant noises in my room last night. I wish to switch rooms tonight.”

“Sure.”

“Let’s head back now. I want to catch a bit more sleep.”

Cecilia also found joy in doing so.

Her new song still had many areas that needed improvement.

After returning, Jessica tidied up a bit and switched to a different room to rest.

Cecilia was finally able to work in peace. She finished her tasks by four in the afternoon before reaching out to Eric. “The new song is almost ready. Why don’t you give it a try and record it?”

“That quick? All right, I’ll give it a try right away.”

Eric couldn’t wait to record the new song.

Cecilia sat on the couch, casually scrolling through her phone. After a while, she stumbled upon news about Rainsworth Group, reporting that Nicholas had initiated a partnership with the Murdock family.

She still remembered how the Murdock family had made several attempts to harm Nathaniel in the past. The two families had always been at odds.

Unexpectedly, they had the chance to collaborate again.

At that moment, a call came through. Cecilia was momentarily taken aback when she saw that it was from Nathaniel.

Ever since he moved out, apart from the one time when Elliot ran over to him, the two of them had not communicated at all.

Could it be that he’s regained his memory, given that he’s the one initiating the call to me now?
