Chereads / Bride's Grudge / Chapter 4 - Back in reality

Chapter 4 - Back in reality

Jessica's feeling was not wrong. Mark managed to contact his family in Canada and informed them of his current whereabouts. However, before the meeting between him and Jessica's parents, Mark was caught by Arash's men who then killed him. 

Jessica's family sought the help of their colleagues in the country where her daughter was currently located. A well-established business relationship made everything so easy. They managed to track down where Arash and his gang were hiding and before long, the local police had dismantled the prostitution ring run by the man. 

Jessica's parents saved not only her, but all the women in the brothel. They were all very grateful to her for helping them break free from Arash's years of bondage. 

She was immediately taken to the hospital for maximum care, to restore her physical and mental condition. Until that moment, her parents had not told her about Dominic and Jessica's marriage. 

They chose to avoid every time her daughter asked them to contact Dominic Toretto to apologize for doing something stupid, choosing to follow Arash one day before his wedding. 

"Dad, Mom, are you hiding something from me? Did something happen to Dominic?" asked her, looking at them. 

"Nothing serious happened. It's better for you to focus on recovering after this incident. We don't want people to find out what happened to you in this country before you are rescued by the local authorities. After this, I want you to go on a vacation so that you'll be more relaxed when you come back," Jessica's dad advised her. 

"But, Dad, I want to talk to Dominic. Does he hate me after that incident?" she begged to be allowed to talk to him. 

"Jessica, just do what your father says this time. Please don't make us even more embarrassed because of this incident. You never know how the two of us covered up everything from the whole extended family as well as other business colleagues. Especially with the Toretto family. How dare we contact Dominic and tell him about you being a lustful customer of the men here? Do you want to risk our family's pride?" said her mom in a sarcastic and sardonic tone. 

"Honey, never mind. It's better to focus on Jessica's condition first rather than thinking about other things. My dear, I beg you, this time obey your father and mother's words. We both promise that when things are calmer, we will tell you everything," said her dad, soothing.

She looked at both of them without blinking. She knew there was something to hide from her. For the time being, she would obey her dad's words and choose to take a vacation to restore the condition of her body and soul that had been damaged in the tomb of sin for almost three years. 

"Alright, Dad. This time I will obey your words. But, when I return, you must tell me the secret that was hidden from me. I'm going to stay away for a while, until I'm ready to come back and see my fiance and marry him as planned," she said, smiling at the thought of Dominic Toretto. 

"I had already arranged all the accommodations. You just need to leave directly from Schiphol Airport to the first country destination. Have fun there later," he said as he handed her daughter the tickets and all the necessary accommodations. A brand new cell phone was also in the same bag. 

"Apparently, dad and mom really prepared everything well before getting me out of that jerk's clutches. I'm getting more and more suspicious that you guys are hiding something about Dominic .But, never mind. It's not time for me to know that yet. Tomorrow I'm leaving the country for Paris," she said expressionlessly. 

Meanwhile, both parents chose to remain silent without daring to say anything about the big secret they were forced to hide from their first daughter.

Both were afraid that Eliza would go into hysterics upon hearing about Dominic and Radella's marriage. Everything was unexpected. They never thought that Jessica would experience such a shameful thing like now.

They thought too much before deciding to trust the words of a strange man who suddenly contacted them and told them everything about their daughter.

How devastated they were as parents who had been spoiling their first daughter more than her, who had to accept the harsh reality of hearing that Jessica was being used as a love interest in the Netherlands by Arash, the man who claimed to be her lover. 

The one thing they were most afraid of was ruining Radella's happiness and marriage. How could they bear to separate a husband and wife who had struggled to love each other after what happened. Moreover, there was their interference until the marriage. 

Dominic, who used to not care about Radella and kept thinking about Jessica, was melted by his wife's attention and sincerity and love. And vice versa. Now, after they thought the two of them had lived happily despite not being blessed with offspring, it had to be ruined by her return between them. 

"How will Radella feel if she finds out her sister wants Dominic back in her arms, Hans? I'm afraid our two daughters will turn against each other," said Hans Yori's wife

"I don't know either. This is beyond both of our control. At that time, neither of us thought about what would happen in the future. We have to calm Jessica down first by sending her on vacation. Meanwhile, we will talk to Radella about this and prepare her for the bitter end," Hans Yori told his wife. 

"Won't it be painful for Radella later, Hans? Then, what about Dominic? He will definitely not want to accept Jessica who has humiliated the Toretto family," his wife continued later. 

"I will think about that later. For sure, this will be a painful thing not only for Dominic and Hans, but also for Jessica. After all, we never know what our daughter might do when she finds out the truth," said Hans Yori, not daring to imagine. 

"Your words scared me. I know how my daughter is when she wants something she likes. It's all my fault for spoiling her so much in the past," she said regretfully. 

Both of their eyes radiated great fear. Both knew how their first daughter was. The excessive attention given by both of them to Jessica made her grow into a spoiled and selfish woman. They were indeed guilty of spoiling their first daughter. However, it was too late.

Now, both of them can only hope that nothing will happen that can destroy their second daughter's happy household. Moreover, after Radella struggled to get her husband's love and affection. They would be very sinful if Jessica ruined Radella's household. And who knows what would be done if that happened. 

If only time could be turned back, both of them wanted to fix everything. Hoping that everything would work out the way it was supposed to. However, that hope would never come true. The time bomb they created themselves would soon explode and destroy all the happiness that her daughter and her husband and their children were feeling.
