All Chapters of The Prison Bride: Chapter 291 - Chapter 300

In the end, Jack decided against it after thinking it was too sleazy.After sending Jessie off to Stewart Tech, and since they'd already agreed to go to a beauty salon that afternoon, Jack went home first to check on their cats.As soon as he stepped into the yard, the cats ran up to him.Jack scooped up the gray cat in front and tapped its nose. "Your mom feels guilty for stealing me away. She made me promise to come home every day and check on you guys."Just as he finished speaking, his phone rang. He glanced at the screen. It was Ronny."What's up?" Jack asked."It's my friend's birthday today. He rented a luxury yacht for the party with freshly caught seafood, all-you-can-eat. He told me to bring you and Jessie along. You in?" Ronny sounded excited."I'll have to ask her first," Jack replied before walking into the villa with the cat still in his arms."Alright, check with her and call me back," Ronny said before hanging up.Jack stayed home with the cats for a couple of

It was soon time for dinner.By then, Ronny had cooled off. He was now sitting with Jessie, Jack, and Harry at a separate table while they chatted."So, when will the compensation hit her account? Are they going to cover the house too?" Ronny leaned back in his chair. His hair was tousled by the sea breeze, giving him a relaxed, carefree look.Jessie turned to Jack."Not that soon. It has to go through the process. It'll probably take another month or two," Jack replied."That's slow," Ronny said.Right after he finished speaking, a glass of wine was suddenly poured over his head.Harry, who sat beside him, almost got splashed and quickly stood up.The glass clattered on the deck."I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to. I got bumped into–" A young woman he didn't recognize stammered nervously.Ronny shot up to his feet and glared at her furiously, but the moment he saw her, his anger vanished. She looked so naive and helpless.He pulled a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the

Jorge leaned against the railing beside her. His tone carried a trace of melancholy. "You know, Jessie was actually engaged to me at first. But she refused the marriage, and they ended up marrying Mia to me instead. When I looked into it, I found out Mia had a criminal record.""She was engaged to you?" Marie frowned. She'd done some digging on Stewart Tech and knew about Jessie's case, but she hadn't really looked into Jessie's situation within the Stewart family."Yeah. Stewart Tech was bleeding money, and the Stewarts wanted me to invest to keep the company afloat. I was willing to, but once Jessie got involved with Jack, I was out of the picture. So they pushed Mia on me instead, hoping our family would use our money to bail her out." Jorge sighed.Marie let out a cold chuckle. "So what, you're just here whining about your own bad luck? Do you want me to feel sorry for you now?"Lately, she'd seen too many pathetic men who loved painting themselves as victims just to get sympat

"The whole yacht was working for him, and they really think dropping his name will make me go easy on the Lambert family?" Marie shouted furiously."No, that's not it. Some of Jack's friends stayed behind. They're the ones who saved you."Marie's gaze locked on the server. After a long pause, she laughed. "So they told you to say this, huh? Just to make me let the Lambert family off the hook?""I don't know all the details, but you can ask Mr. Jackson yourself. He's the one who spiked your milk last night. His name's Jorge. He didn't get the chance to hurt you. He was attacked the moment he entered the bathroom. You should remember that much," the server said carefully.Marie did remember.Jorge was beaten up, and she blacked out soon after.If the people who saved her were Jack's friends who stayed behind, then what the hell was he playing at?-After the first trial, Jessie was surprised to learn that Bruce and the others hadn't appealed.Once she received the official verdi

Jessie stared at him for a long moment before asking, "How did you get back?"His showing up wasn't a coincidence, and she knew Jack had something going on before he left.Jack said Wilson had called him back to arrange some New Year stuff. It was probably just an excuse.Freddy's eyes filled with tears. "I escaped on my own, and because of that my leg got ruined–" he said.Jessie listened with suspicion.Rumor had it he'd ended up in one of those scam compounds in Dubor.After the recent crackdowns in North Maurania, those compounds kept captives under very tight control. For a pampered rich kid like Freddy, who was used to being waited on, and wasn't particularly bright, the chance he escaped by himself was basically zero.Jessie stared at him for a long while and said, "I can't help you. Besides, you've been disowned by the Stewart family. Here's some straight talk. Go to the police and report it. The whole Stewart family has been convicted. Going to prison and getting a meal
