Contract Marriage: My Sweet Bossy Wife novel Chapter 95

Lorenzo's custom limousine was parked not far from Capttar Medical School. He rolled down the window, with an ointment in his hand. He knew that Jessica must be inside. He would see her if he entered the school.

But Lorenzo did not dare to go in, fearing that he could not help keeping her so he endured his longing and watched her from a distance.

He kept an absolute safe distance so as not to hurt Jessica again. He was reluctant to part with a broken heart. He never thought he would be so crazy about a girl. Jessica was his salvation.

The details of their life were deeply etched in his mind. There were their conversations and pictures in his phone. There was only one photo in his pone which Jessica sent him by mistake.

He not only save it on his phone but also printed it and put it in a photo frame on his desk in his office. With a sweet memory, he had a broken heart now. He remembered Jessica's cries of pain, her pale face and sweat streaking her forehead.

Lorenzo put his hand against his forehead and took a deep breath.

Levi called Lorenzo several times in a row about something important but he couldn't get through so he kept calling.

"Mr. Fletcher, it’s urgent. The ticket is ready. If you don’t come, you'll miss your flight. The trip is very important to the Fletcher Group and it is not easy to get an appointment with them."

As Lorenzo picked up the phone, Levi's anxious voice came out of the receiver.

"All right. I'll be right there."

There had been no contact between him and Jessica for several days. She had been busy at Capttar Medical School all day long and had never been back.

In addition to her daily work and scientific research, Jessica was immersed in books and researching new drugs desperately.

Finally, she had a major breakthrough for the prescription but the medicinal material had become a problem. It’s the black lotus.

Black lotus had always been like a sacred medicine. The plant grew in a very special environment. It grew only 3 cm per year at the intersection of yin and yang. It bloomed and ripened every five years.

It's real but no one had ever seen it, let alone having it.

"Summer, I finally figured out a new cure! Congratulate me!" Jessica was so happy that she continued talking, "Black lotus is the most important ingredient but no one has ever seen it and no one knows what it looks like."

"Black... Black lotus? Jessica, have you lost your mind? Black lotus doesn’t belong to earth. It grows at the intersection of extreme yin and yang. We don't even know where it is. According to medical books, black lotus has both good and evil properties. Every patient had a different reaction after taking it. It could really kill the patient!"

When Summer heard that Jessica was looking for a black Lotus, her voice changed. She must be crazy!

"Don't worry, Summer. I'm sure I'll find it. I was born with a unique constitution compared to others. And I have been exposed to medicines since childhood so black lotus is no big deal for me." Jessica smiled.

"No! No way!" Summer was scared by Jessica's words. She hurried to persuade her.

"Jessica, you're out of your mind. What happened? If you want to use such a herb, you are gambling with your life because once something goes wrong, no one can save you! How dare you risk your own life!"

"Summer, how old do you think I am? I'm only 23. Do you really think that I'm risking my life? I need you to figure something out. Most of Capttar Medical School's medicinal treasures are in your charge so please help me."

Jessica tried to calm Summer.

"Capttar Medical School does not have black lotus although there are records. No one has seen it. So I’m sorry." Summer sighed.

Jessica was discouraged by her words.

"Ah! It just hits me! Wait for my good news. I know what to do!" Summer said excitedly.

"Summer, really?" Hearing what she said, Jessica’s eyes lit up. She thought to herself, ‘Lerenzo will pull through!’

"I'm not a total loser. Believe me. I just need some time. But it needs the right place at the right time." Summer was very confident.

Things were pretty settled. Jessica hadn’t called Mr. Fletcher for a long time and neither did he so she was wondering how Mr. Fletcher was doing. She was a little angry and aggrieved. How dare he? What did he mean by ignoring her.

The ointment, which the boy gave her kindly, was very effective. Its effect was almost miraculous and it alleviated pain without leaving a scar.

Jessica did some research on the ointment. The ingredients were very complicated, including as many as dozens of medicinal materials and it required a precise proportion. This couldn’t be made by ordinary people. Is that made by the boy?

It seemed that Summer was not the only one who was superior to others. The boy was no ordinary man, either.

Jessica hadn't had the courage to leave Capttar Medical School these days. She didn't know how to deal with Lorenzo. She had recovered now but Mr. Fletcher never called her again.

While Jessica was angry, she was also worried about Lorenzo. When she was not in the the Private Estate, would he sleep well?

If things got worse and she's not with him, how's Lorenzo gonna make it?

When Jessica was very anxious, her mobile phone made a special notification sound. She swiped the screen and found that it was Amara.

"Are you still busy right now?" Amara sent a voice message.

"I’m not able to be with you lately, I'm sorry." Jessica replied.

"Look who is softhearted now. Maybe husband is more important than friends?" Amara ridiculed.

"I have something urgent to deal with at Capttar Medical School so I can't stay with you. Let’s talk about you. Is there something serious going on between you and Mr. Watts?" She changed the subject.

She had been so busy lately that she didn't look well. She needed to try a new prescription. And the progress should be accelerated. As for Lorenzo, she was worried about him if she was not there for him.

"Nothing happens. He's like my brother." Amara replied coolly.

Jessica went to the the Private Estate early in the morning. The Fletcher Group was right on the way. The Group building was solemn and magnificent and could be called the Ameriart national standard architecture and art.

"The iconic building you see is the headquarter of the Fletcher Group, which has become a national standard architecture. You can imagine how well known it is. President of the Fletcher Group is known as a business legend at a young age. Nothing is not available as long as he wants. He is like a man living in a legend."

The driver was quite talkative. He found that Jessica was watching the Fletcher Group so he introduced it to her.

Yeah, Lorenzo was a business legend.

"Please pull over."

"There’s still a long way from the the Private Estate." The driver asked in surprise.

"Thank you for reminding me. I admire this Mr. Fletcher and would like to pay him a visit." Jessica not only paid the fare but also tipped a lot.

The driver looked at Jessica in surprise. She wanted to visit Mr. Fletcher?

Wasn't that awesome?

***

At the front desk, in the Fletcher Group.

"Hello, how can I help you?" The girl at the front desk got up quickly, nodded and then asked.

"Hello, it's Lorenzo I'm looking for." Jessica looked at the girl.

Mr. Fletcher was handsome, rich, and capable. There were a lot of women who tried everything they could to marry him.

"Did you have an appointment?" Her words were very official.

"I don't have an appointment." Jessica told the truth.

"I'm sorry, I can't call him for you. You can't visit Mr. Fletcher now."

"It doesn't matter. I'll wait for him to get off work."

"He is on a business trip. Are you sure you want to wait?"

Jessica made a good impression on the girl. She was kind enough to remind her.

On a business trip? No wonder he didn’t reach her.

Without leaving immediately, Jessica took out her phone, swiped the screen and looked for Lorenzo's number.
