Victor Morgan settled Jessie Sterling into an empty private room next door, leaving one of his bodyguards behind to stay with her.
The lights in the room were all on, making it very bright.
Just as Victor Morgan was about to turn and leave, Jessie Sterling suddenly grabbed his large hand.
Even though she had been hiding in Victor Morgan's embrace just a moment ago, she had still clearly heard what he planned to do.
And that was precisely why Jessie felt so uneasy.
Perhaps because she had been crying, Jessie's eyes seemed especially bright and clear as she sat on the sofa and looked up at Victor Morgan.
"You..." Jessie frowned, unsure of what to say. She wanted to tell Victor not to get his own hands dirty. But when she finally spoke, the words came out differently. "Don't... break him too badly..."
A faint smile suddenly touched Victor Morgan's usually expressionless face at her words.
"Okay." Victor Morgan stroked Jessie's hair, then turned and left.
