The Last Embrace Chapter 415

Jessy was preventing herself from laughing hard, enjoying the horror in his reaction.
"Why?" he asked her sadly, tears shimmering in his eyes.
"What-?" she glared at him. "You have to remember that my boyfriend saw you in the forest. The king saw your face while he plunged the spear in your back, if they see you again they will discover everything and I don't want that to happen. You have no idea the trouble I have to go through just for you. I have to lie to everyone just to save your ass and yet you dare to plan in erasing my memory? How dare you!" she gritted her teeth, annoyed.
Jagger released a deep sigh and went down again on bended knee in front of her. "How can I face people with this image?" he lamented, pointing at his outrageous face.
Jessy covered her mouth while snickering.
Jagger begged into her eyes. "Jess, please change my face into something pleasant to look at just, not like this...pleaseee..."
She continues looking at him while her mind was already scanning different images of men stored in her brain and the ones she saw in the magazine popped out in her mind. Ahh! She already had an image of him conjured in her mind. "Stay still, I'll change your appearance," she commanded.
Jagger obeyed and did not move an inch.
Once again, Jessy began waving her hands-on Jagger's face like a painter sculpting his face just like the one she had in mind.
In her mind she collected different face features such as eyes, nose, mouth, ears, eyes, brows, jaws and face shape of different men's images and merged them all in one, ten minutes later, she was done transforming Jagger's face into something different, she was amazed on her creation and the result blows her mind away...she simply created a very handsome man!

Amazing! Jessy murmured to herself. "Look at yourself in the mirror and tell me if you like and feel satisfied with your new image?" she said.
Jagger immediately looked at his face in the mirror, and he too was shocked by his new image. Wow! he gushes. "Is it really me—?" he asked in amazement.
Jessy looked at him, amused. "The facial features you have right now are a combination of everyone's faces. I guess I created a unique you," she elaborated. "Do you like your new face or I will return the previous face?"
Jagger was shaking his head vigorously. "No please, I like this one, I will keep it!" he said enthusiastically.
Jessy rolled her eyes. "Okay fine. From now on that will be your new face. Your new name would be Alexander Moore."
"My name is Alexander Moore," Jagger rolled the name in his mouth, it has a nice rhyme to it. His new name and his face look good together. From now on, he will no longer be the reminder of his old self which was a total failure.
From now on, he was being rebirth into a new person. A new version of himself. With his new self, he can conquer the world, it's all thanks to the woman in front of him who has done so much for him and yet he had done nothing for her yet. "Tell me, how can I repay you, Jess?"
She looked at him straight in the eyes. "Go away, far away from here as possible. I don't want to see you again. One more thing, do not ever use your power to harm or take advantage of others or else I will come after you. Remember, it's my blood that runs in your veins I can locate your whereabouts wherever you are. I'm giving you a second chance to redeem yourself please don't waste it, don't make me regret my decision today," she warned him.

Jagger bowed his head to the woman he loves so much. "I promised I won't fail you this time. Thank you so much for giving me a second chance I won't waste this golden opportunity to redeem myself," he said with heartfelt gratitude shining in his eyes.
"Go now!" she said.
"W-wait...can I talk with my brother, my nephew, and niece to bid them goodbye first before I go away? " he pleaded.
"Okay, but make sure that after I come back here tonight, you are no longer in this cave," she breathed.
"Thank you so much, Jess," he said with a smile. "If one day you ever need my help or you need my services, please don't hesitate to find me I will do anything for you," he said in a voice filled with affection.
With one last look at Jagger...aka...Alexander Moore, Jessy initiated the teleportation process in her mind going back to the Facility.
A few seconds later, Jessy was gone from the secret room.
Jagger exited the secret room wanting to bid goodbye to his brother and his family.
The entire family was waiting outside the door, they were dumbfounded upon seeing the new him.
Roden was stunned to see a stranger exiting the secret room. "W-who the hell are you!?" his eyes widened when he saw the same familiar shoulder-length curly hair of his brother. C-could it be?
Jagger grinned. "My sweetheart changed my face, and my new name is now Alexander Moore," he explained in a casual tone with a hint of amusement glinting in his eyes.
Again Roden hugged his brother with profound gladness.
Looking at his brother's new face, he still can't believe that Jessy was so considerate. "S-she set you free without punishing you?" he still has a few doubts but very grateful for her understanding. "Where is she? I want to thank her," he asked.
"Jessy already went back to the Facility, but she instructed me to leave this place 'coz she doesn't want to see me again," he said sadly.
Roden sighed, he can't blame Jessy. "Don't worry brother, one day, when everything will be alright, we will see each other again in the city. Don't go too far that I can't find you. The nearest city is fine, I think Jessy won't mind," he said.
"Yes, the city will be fine," Jagger replied. Well, he can't go too far away, his family still here, but he will make sure Jessy won't see his face again.
The children were staring at the good looking stranger in front of them, stupefied.
Jagger patted their heads affectionately, then he smiled at her sister in law who was at a loss of words to say to him.
