Chapter 109 Originally, the strength of women could not equal that of men, and Gemma was previously drugged and physically weak. Just now, when she pushed him away, she felt like she had to climb several flights of stairs. Quickly, Jethro used only one hand to lock Gemma's two hands up high. In just a moment, Gemma was face to face with this man whom she hated. "Are you crazy! Let me go! Let me go, what are you trying to do?" Gemma shouted, but her heart was pounding fast with fear and panic. Even before she regained her memory, every time Gemma faced Jethro, she felt suffocated and afraid. It was definitely because she had been too terrified of him before, and that feeling had never disappeared. Jethro looked at Gemma's panicked and frightened appearance but still tried to appear angry to conceal his own fear. But compared to before, he only felt a pain in his heart when he saw her scared every time she saw him or was close to him. Was she really afraid of him to this extent? J
Chapter One Hundred Ten "I have eyes and ears all over this country, which is why I am confident that I will find Clement quickly. You don't need to worry," Jethro said calmly and nonchalantly. Seeing Gemma remain silent and not continue the conversation, he sighed softly and said, "Once the boy returns, you can talk to him. Clement definitely needs someone who can comfort him. The relationship between me and the boy is not great... so I would like to ask if you can stay until he returns?" Gemma was surprised by this unexpected request and didn't know how to respond. She didn't know the man's intentions, and there was a seed of doubt in his heart about her identity. If she stayed longer with him, Gemma was sure she would be easily exposed. She also felt that Jethro might actually be crazy, as he had tried to approach her several times as a substitute for 'Gemma Robert.' "Why? Aren't you happy?" Jethro asked again. But without her son, she couldn't be at ease. Otherwise, she wouldn
Chapter 111 Gemma sat quietly alone on the sofa, appearing as though she was lost in thought, trying to avoid talking to Jethro. But Jethro was not one to feel ashamed, and he sat down next to her. "Do you want something to eat?" Gemma reluctantly forced a smile and tried to move away from him, but he just shifted closer until she couldn't move any further. "Mr. Thompson, could you please sit a little further away from me? I can't be comfortable like this," Gemma sighed, not realizing that Jethro was truly so shameless. Jethro innocently nodded and said, "Oh, really?" But he showed no intention of moving from his seat. This atmosphere made Gemma feel confused and anxious, more so than just now, whenever she faced Jethro, she couldn't help but feel uncomfortable, trembling with discomfort. If he refused to leave, she would be the one to move to another seat. Gemma stood up and walked over to the nearby chair, her expression clearly showing her unhappiness. "Alright, Mr. Thompson
Chapter One Hundred TwelveJethro tilted his head, eyes still fixed on the big picture in front of him. "Really? I've obviously called you, but you must have been so focused on this picture that you didn't notice."“You think it's beautiful, every time I'm sad, I come here to look at her. Just looking at it makes me feel a lot more comfortable.” Jethro glanced at Gemma's reaction.“Sometimes I can't help but use this picture to comfort myself. Her charm drives me crazy.”Gemma was surprised to hear this man say, she didn't dare to believe that someone who was always cold and arrogant like Jethro had to use her image to comfort himself? He also spoke casually without being embarrassed in front of her.So he hasn't had another woman all this time?“Why do you look so surprised? Is it unusual for a husband to masturbate with his wife's image?" Jethro smiled mischievously, his eyes always watching Gemma's amused expression.Gemma turned pale when he heard that, he said that was admitting
Chapter One Hundred and Thirteen "Sir, everything has been arranged satisfactorily," Z reported respectfully. Jethro continued to gaze coldly in the direction of Gemma as Clement led her back to the bedroom. He knew that his plan had succeeded, but the results were not as effective as he had hoped. "What about Harvey?" Jethro asked coldly. "As you predicted, Harvey Susan had people searching for Ms. Gemma all night, and the search area has expanded significantly in just one night. I believe they will quickly find their way here, and for now, Ms. Gemma is still going by the name 'Emma,' the wife of Harvey Susan," Z replied, deliberately bringing up this matter as a cautious reminder to his master. Jethro glanced at Z, well aware of this fact, as it was also part of his plan. Harvey wouldn't just sit idly by and let him do whatever he pleased. Directly confronting him would only put him at a disadvantage. "Continue with the next step of the plan. Let him keep searching; it won't ma
Chapter One Hundred and FourteenGemma and Clement lay asleep in the room, while outside, Alex had set up hidden cameras to monitor every corner of this villa, which was previously unused and had few belongings, with no household staff either.Alex never imagined that one day Gemma, Jethro's wife, would return. At first, Alex was astonished because when he was abroad on a mission, he only heard from subordinates that Ms. Gemma had committed suicide.That incident had a profound impact on the master's psyche. Jethro had many enemies, and if they knew about his emotional struggle due to his wife's death, it would be dangerous. They might exploit it to create a new 'Gemma Roberts.'In this story, there were many ambiguities that couldn't be put into words. Alex looked at the owner's expressions and knew that the woman in the bedroom was indeed Gemma.Yet, Alex couldn't understand why Gemma refused to acknowledge herself and return to her husband once again.Since Jethro married Gemma, Al
Chapter One Hundred and FifteenGemma looked at Clement with affection and concern as she hurriedly approached his side to examine the bruise on her son's arm. The bruise was quite large, obviously the result of a strong impact that had caused Clement considerable pain."Mommy... it hurts so much," Clement said, his teary eyes welling up. He gritted his teeth as if enduring terrible pain.Gemma felt a pang of pain when Clement called her "mom." Her current status was not suitable for him to address her in such a way, but she couldn't bring herself to stop him. Gemma turned her gaze to the maid and said, "Could you please get me some medicine to apply on the little one's bruise? Thank you."With a cold expression, the maid nodded slightly and left, returning shortly with a first aid box in hand. Gemma deftly applied the pain-relief ointment on Clement's bruise, and every action was gentle and tender, even a slight frown from Clement made her anxious."Now, it's all right. Perhaps you'r
Chapter One Hundred and SixteenWith less than half an hour before landing, Jethro sighed, feeling wretched and pitiful. He knew the price he had to pay for the things he had done that hurt and pained Gemma.It would be selfish to hope for Gemma's forgiveness. Jethro felt like a beggar of the past, gnawing at memories that had long passed. He craved the simplicity and love Gemma had offered, the things he once held in his hands but deliberately let go of.Gemma wouldn't easily forgive him as she had done in the past, and he understood that, but he couldn't comprehend why he kept yearning."Why does she have to pretend not to remember anything about me? Clearly, she has remembered everything..." Jethro said.His subordinates by his side listened but remained silent. Jethro fell into contemplation; he had been in this state for a while now, asking himself questions he couldn't answer. Sometimes he would ask his subordinates and those below him, but no one could help him with those quest
