Billionaire's Bet - My Brother's Teacher のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 171 - チャプター 180

Jessica was terrified by Hayden's creepy statement as the speed of the car increased. Beads of precipitation appeared all over her body as her mind went through Cruz's warnings and how his guts just didn't sit well with him. The thought of dying was immensely frightening and at first, she shut her eyes to accept her fate as the car grew closer and closer to the rock. Shutting her eyes only caused her more anxiety and eventually, she opened it, thinking of a better way to make it out alive. She looked behind the rear window of the car and through its tinted glasses, she saw that the other car was barely trying to catch up with Hayden's speed. Even though she knew it wasn't going to help, she resorted to the last thing she could think of which was shouting for help.She screamed her guts out for several seconds and once the car was just a few meters away from the rock, she closed her eyes and covered her head with her hand before hiding it between her legs. Several seconds later,

When Jessica eventually returned downstairs, she was surprised by Cruz's absence as the guards confirmed he had stepped out of the house. She was disappointed because she was finally ready to make peace with him. She sat on the couch and switched on the TV to the news channel only to be the same murder topic that has been going on for days. "I hope they catch the culprit already. It's so disheartening to watch." She complained as she switched the TV to another channel. "Me too." Hayden smiled eerily as he walked up to her and bowed slightly. By now, Hayden's cuts were almost invincible, and even though Jessica felt bad for him, she decided it would be better to keep a little distance from him in an attempt to reduce Cruz's jealousy and their constant quarrel. "Oh, Hayden, what are you doing here?" She asked as she awkwardly scratched her head. She didn't want to make it obvious that he was pushing him away but the way she talked nervously made it obvious to Hayden so he decided

I understand that you're an adult and a doctor but I think it would be better if I speak with your guardian privately and have them disclose it to you when…" The doctor was still trying to explain but Cruz interrupted him. "Do you think I need a guardian? Just go ahead and give me the documents. I can read it myself." He suggested. There was no need for arguments because even the doctor knew he was being ridiculous in asking for a guardian so he walked closer and handed the documents to Klaus who rejected it. "Do us a favor and read it to us. Cruz is a doctor and will understand all the medical jargon but we're not and he might try to hide things from us." He explained and the doctor couldn't say no. Dave was also in support of this and Cruz didn't seem to have any problem with it because he believed whatever the doctor was going to say won't be too much for him to handle and he had no plans of hiding anything from the two people with him. "Umm…Mr. Westham, you've been diagnosed w

"What are you talking about now?" Klaus asked curiously as he quickly collected the phone from Dave to prevent him from giving it to Cruz. "Just give it, Dumb! I have to confirm my suspensions." Cruz urged but Klaus wasn't ready to see his only friend die from constant episodes of heart attack. "I'm not going to give you this phone until you give me a reason to believe that you're not taking it to see the pain she's in." Klaus insisted and eventually, he decided to open up since it was just then in the room. "Clyde escaped from prison shortly after Landon's release. I also happened to read from Dave's iPad earlier that the two were said to have been very close and even rumored to be in a sexual relationship. On the call with the kidnapper, he mentioned that this wasn't the first time he was doing such a thing but we all know that Landon has never done something like this before since he spent his teenage and early youth life in prison. The police and security agency also deduced t

Months went by and things started to look better for the family. Jessica's panic disorder was reducing drastically and their relationship was becoming what it used to be but Cruz's prognosis was becoming lower. His doctor had thought it was in the 1 stage but it turned out that it was a lot worse than they had imagined. He was now in stage 3 atherosclerosis and even though his symptoms were now more constant, he did his best to hide it from everyone else. Despite the condition, Cruz was determined to conquer the disease, and his friends and Doctor were with him all the way. Anytime he needs to be admitted, he always lies to his wife about going on a business trip with Dave that way, she never suspected anything.Aside from that, everything else was perfect for the couple. Jessica even got a new job at the Blue Ray Academy and most times, they went to work together, except when Cruz had an off or an emergency and had to leave earlier. Since his license has been restored, he was th
