Billionaire Defiant Wife Chapter 472

James had a dark expression, but he did not vent anger at him. He fixed his eyes at Jessica as the pill slowly fell because of gravity.
After wiping his face, he poured two more pills, held her chin, and threw the pills directly into her throat.
Then he poured some water into her mouth.
As Jessica choked, the pills were finally swallowed in.
At this time, James's bodyguard knocked on the door and came in.
"Prince, we searched for the princess's room and found no whereabouts of the medicine."
James pushed the quilt in his hand back to the nightstand of the bed. It was suspicious that Rebecca had come to him for no reason that day. In the bar that night, Rebecca had asked him to play games, which aggravated his suspicion.
"How is Rebecca?"
"She wakes up more often."
James silenced for a moment and raised his hand to let him out.
The bodyguard was not leaving, but stood in place, "The president's back."
James slowly looked up, and there was an incomprehensible mood in his eyes.
"I know."
The bodyguard finally went out. Jessica heard their conversation just now. She was not interested in the president, but interested in medicine. It turned out that James thought the medicine had been stolen by Rebecca.
If the medicine was neither with Andrew or Avery nor with Rebecca, who would have it?
Who else wanted the medicine beside them?
***
The first ray of sunshine in the morning fell all over the ground through the window.
Evan sat up from the bed. Even if Avery had pulled the quilt out of bed as gently as possible, he could still feel it, reaching to pull the woman back.
"Get up, Evan. It's getting late." They were going to visit Avery's mother at the presidential palace today.

Evan was not in a hurry, and had a particularly good mood, "Why are you in a hurry? I haven't had breakfast yet."
"Why didn't you get up early? It's at 8 o'clock. I'll have the waiter bring something to eat."
"Aren't you ready for me to eat?"
"?"
Evan put his hand around her waist and said, "I mean, you are my breakfast."
Avery pinched his cheeks gently, "It's too late. You don't want to get ready to see my mother?"
James pinched her nose with his hand and said, "What are you afraid of? I'm ready. Are you worried that your mother doesn't like me?"
Avery thought about it seriously, and she didn't know her mother's preferences. How could she know if her mother liked him or not?
After a knock on the door, Robert walked in, followed by a waiter with a hand-pushed stand. The waiter showed the clothes on the stand one by one, "Mr. Howel, and these clothes are the latest style of the year."
It was the first time that Avery had seen him taking a thing so seriously.
"Pick one for me, Darling." Evan patted her buttocks to get her up, and he wore a robe out of bed and went straight into the kitchen.
Robert looked up slightly and found his boss was studying the toaster and then taking out a pan.
Avery carefully chose a suit that looked formal but not too grand, took it out and put it on the bed.
She knew that Evan was making her breakfast, only to find the respectable man was attractive when he was cooking.
After breakfast, the two picked out some gifts. Evan changed into a formal suit that had diamond buttons.
Such a handsome man was really impeccable. Avery's mother had no reason not to like him.

But before they arrived at the presidential palace, they received the news that Rebecca had woken up, and Avery's mother had followed the president to the hospital.
They turned to the hospital.
Rebecca was losing her temper and kept smashing her things on the ground, surrounded by a few servants, doctors, and nurses, who were scrambling to comfort her.
Logan and Avery's mother happened to come from the other side of the hallway, and they had just arrived.
Logan glanced at Avery, did not speak, and hurriedly went in. Olivia pulled Avery, "Avery, you really hurt Rebecca's face?"
Avery did not admit nor deny it. Olivia did not ask her again, but said, "Let's go in and see her first."
Then they also went into the ward.
At the ward.
"Rebecca."
Hearing this voice, Rebecca suddenly froze and looked back slowly.
At the moment of seeing Logan, Rebecca immediately burst into tears and cried out, "Father, you're back."
Because of the injury on the face, Rebecca's head was wrapped with gauze, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed to the outside, which was like a mummy.
Seeing her like this, Logan looked sullen.
No father could tolerate his daughter being so aggrieved, and Rebecca has been spoiled since childhood.
He immediately strode forward, holding Rebecca, who almost fell out of her bed.
Rebecca tearfully jumped into Logan's arms and cried bitterly.
But when Avery walked into the ward, Rebecca suddenly raised her head.
She pointed straight at Avery.
"Dad, it's Avery. She disfigured my face. You must ask for justice for me. Don't let her go!"
Rebecca could not wait to put pressure on Logan, persuading her father to punish Avery immediately. She grabbed a glass on the nightstand and slammed the glass into the corner of the nightstand.
Logan's look changed.
Immediately he raised his hand to stop her, "Rebecca, don't."
Rebecca held a piece of the glass fragment in her hand tightly, regardless of whether the sharp edge would cut her fingers or not.
She aimed the sharp glass fragment at her throat.
Her eyes were full of bitterness and misery.
"My face is disfigured. I have nightmares all night. I don't look pretty anymore."
"Look at her. She is alive and pretty, and she's not guilty at all. She's not punished at all."
"She also took my fiance, and she was a mistress. How can I stand it?"
"Father, you must help me! If you don't help me, I might as well die."
While speaking, Rebecca suddenly wanted to stick the broken glass fragment in her hand into her throat.
