Chapter 1243

Kathryn could genuinely comprehend the emotions driving Jessica's decision to strike a deal with Byron. All Jessica wanted was for Kelly to wake up and for the person responsible to face the consequences.

There was nothing wrong about what she wanted. She wouldn't regret anything that unfolded.

However, Kathryn hoped Jessica knew the entire truth so that she could make an informed decision.

Jessica said, "I'm working. Let's meet tonight."

"Jessica, I have two important things I have to tell you right now."

"I'm not interested!"

Kathryn was rendered speechless.

Jessica sounded resolute. It seemed like nothing else mattered to her except for Kelly waking up.

"Let Byron take Kelly away. I'm okay with it," Jessica added, leaving Kathryn struggling to steady her breathing.

Kathryn said, "Don't you want to know who Kelly's father is?"

The call fell into an immediate, tense silence.

Kathryn continued, "Don't you have the slightest interest in knowing who your real mother is?"
