Chapter 2252: Weapon Genius

Editor: Atlas Studios

Xia Zhe spotted many people from Alan’s family on the streets. Although they tried to look inconspicuous, the sudden appearance of so many people wearing the same clothes on the streets looked glaring.

After searching for a long time, Xia Zhe found Jessica inside a dark alley. At this moment, Jessica was curled up in a corner with a dagger in her hand. She was in a mess and all wet from the rain. Next to her lay the corpses of two men. These two men were not from Alan’s family and looked like hooligans from nearby.

“Come with me,” Xia Zhe said as he tilted the umbrella in his hand towards Jessica.

“Why… why should I believe you?” Jessica asked in a trembling voice.

“The place is surrounded with people sent by your father and brother. You can only trust me now,” Xia Zhe said.

After thinking about it, Jessica agreed to go with Xia Zhe. He did not bring Jessica back to the villa. He was worried that people might see her and spread rumors, so he brought her directly to see Paul and Ella.

When Yin Yue opened the door, she was shocked to see Xia Zhe and Jessica. She looked at Jessica mockingly and whistled, saying, “Oh~ You still managed to find the beautiful woman.”

“Hurry up and let us in,” Xia Zhe said helplessly.

Yin Yue turned sideways to let the two of them in. After entering the house, Jessica was a little surprised to see Ella. The two of them had not seen each other for many years.

In those years, after Paul and Ella joined Alan’s team, they did not head to the island immediately. They lived in the backyard of Alan’s old house. At that time, Daniel had just been born a few years ago. Jessica had lost her mother and fallen out of favor in the family. She spent all her time in the garden feeling depressed.

One time, when Jessica was about to commit suicide, it was Ella who saved her in time. Ella counseled Jessica and even taught her some simple assassination techniques and self-defense skills.

“Auntie Ella,” Jessica said with tears in her eyes.

“My darling! What happened to you!” Ella’s heart ached as she went forward to hug Jessica. Jessica could no longer control her emotions after being aggrieved for so many days and started weeping loudly. Everyone else left the living room to give Jessica and Ella some space.

After Jessica let it all out, Ella brought her to take a shower and change into clean clothes. She combed Jessica’s beautiful blond hair and said, “You’re still as beautiful as when you were young.”

“Auntie Ella, have you been well all these years?” Jessica asked.

“I’m good. Your Uncle Paul loves me very much and I have a lovely daughter named Sandy now. I think you’ll like her. What about you? Are you doing well?” Ella said blissfully.

Jessica hesitated for a long time. She did not know if she was happy or not.

“My dear, you have to live for yourself and leave everyone else behind. You’re the best and the most outstanding. Have you forgotten? Back then, in Alan’s family, you were the one who was most talented in weapons design,” Ella said.

Jessica could be considered a rare genius in Alan’s family. She was very familiar with all kinds of weapons since she was young and could even find loopholes in Alan’s designs. Every time Alan’s relatives saw Jessica, they would lament that it would be fantastic if she was a boy. Daniel’s birth later had then dealt a heavy blow to Jessica.

Although Daniel’s aptitude was only mediocre, he was still the future heir of Alan’s family. If Jessica surpassed Daniel in terms of ability, people would laugh their heads off!

Therefore, Jessica had to hide her talents until today. She could not expose her talents to the public and could only quietly stay as the “pretty face” of Alan’s family.

Xia Zhe stood outside the door and knocked, asking, “Are you done washing up?”

“Yes, I’m done.” Jessica wrapped a shawl around herself and followed Xia Zhe to the study. Ella and Paul stood at one side.

“The issue with the basement. It must be you,” Jessica stared at Xia Zhe and said affirmatively.

“Yes.” Xia Zhe nodded. Although he did not do it personally, Qiao Mei’s actions were equivalent to his actions.

Jessica sighed resignedly and said, “I really don’t know if I should thank you or hate you now.”

“You should thank me. Otherwise, how can you escape from that hellhole?” Xia Zhe said as he chuckled.

“Can you help me?” Jessica asked.

“Yes, but you have to make yourself clear. What can you bring to the table?” Xia Zhe said.

Jessica said calmly, “I can give you all of Alan’s blueprints for the weapons. I also have weapon design blueprints that are much better than what he has.”

Xia Zhe’s eyes lit up. This was something that had never crossed his mind. He did not expect to have an unexpected gain after saving Jessica!
