Chaplain!

Chapter 1250: Chapter 1247

The cascade of angry voices was automatically blocked out by Jessica Wright!

Her heart as cold as ice, she had long passed the stage of indulging in the pleasure of verbal confrontation!

If her father wanted to vent, then let him vent!

“Say something!”

“Speak up!”

Wesley Wright roared like a madman!

But Jessica Wright, dressed in a white robe, truly seemed to merge with the surrounding ice as one.

She was devoid of thought and desire, a crystal clear and pure individual!

So pristine!

She disdained the various actions of the company!

But some things can’t be fought against, so it’s better to bury any dissatisfaction in the dust!

“Huff…”

Wesley Wright exhaled a murky breath and then slowed his tone, “Jessica, dad just wants to have a good talk with you.”

“I admit that over these years, I have not been fair to you!”

“Leaving you alone to wander the streets of the pyramid, and when you got accustomed, forcefully bringing you back.”

“But you should also understand that I had no choice back then!”

The company was in a precarious state, evidently having skilled individuals, and the closest at that, yet unable to make use of them, whether he was truly remorseful or feigning it, it sufficiently showed his current helplessness.

If it weren’t for the appearance of Ellie Will, sounding the alarm, even if Jessica Wright were to freeze to death in the Ice Prison, he wouldn’t have set aside his pride and come here.

“The you of those years had no choice, I can understand that!”

“But what about you now?”

It was only after her father’s tone became calm that Jessica Wright spoke, “Actually, you have many choices, it’s just that you chose one which disregards everyone else’s feelings, just for your own benefit and dignity, to control a vast company, that’s all!”

“In the pyramid, I had a happy childhood and received meticulous care.”

“I experienced genuine human kindness!”

“But why…”

She slowly turned around, her exquisite and peerless face filled with puzzlement, looking at her father and questioned, “Why am I not happy after returning to the company?”

This question also caused Wesley Wright to experience a profound suffocation.

Indeed, in the ten years since Jessica Wright returned, he had only seen her smile once.

It was that moment when she defeated Lucas Davis and could finally return to the pyramid; she revealed the simplest of smiles!

“Heh…”

Jessica Wright said with self-mockery, “My memories of the company are only of its cold-heartedness, I can’t smile!”

“Do you know?”

“That pain feels like being scorched in flames!”

“I…”

As she spoke, she fell into deep thought.

She had been full of anticipation, fantasizing about meeting her senior brother again and gaining the happiness she hadn’t felt in a long time, only for reality to deal her another painful blow, “Perhaps, this is growing up!”

“The smiles have become fewer and fewer!”

“The pain has become more and more abundant!”

“I’m sorry, this isn’t the life I wanted, I want to start over!”

“Over these years, I’ve killed so many people for you, I can no longer remember them all, but I feel the father-daughter bond has been fully repaid!”

“If you still consider me your daughter, don’t let me die at the hands of an enemy, finish it with your own hands.”

She refused to commit suicide!

That was because she grew up in the pyramid, where there was a saying that those who commit suicide won’t have the chance to be reborn in the next life!

But she…

Sorely wished to meet Oliver Walker again in the next life!

So…

Even if she lived in agony, she would not take her own life with a knife.

Perhaps, this was her last act of defiance!

“You…”

Wesley Wright, fuming with anger, his face reddening, said, “You are truly unreasonable!”

He truly could not comprehend Jessica Wright’s way of thinking!

That was because he had never experienced such utter despair, nor lost a joy that could never be found again!
