"Mirae Yoo? A woman named Mirae Yoo is here? Really?" Jessie perked up.
The officer coughed awkwardly and cleared her throat again. "Yeah..."
Jessie felt such happiness, almost immediately she was down her bed and walking out of her jail cell.
"You bitch!!" An annoying shriek accompanying the burly woman slapped both Jessie and the officer, assaulting their ears as the woman from earlier burst into her cell. "You're gonna die, bitch!"
The woman paused when she saw the cop in the cell.
"You gonna kill who? Tell me Cathy you're gonna kill who?" The officer asked.
The woman frowned, her huffing reminding Jessie of the little pigs and the big bad wolf.
"You're lucky you brat."
Jessie gave her a sweet smile, she was never one to cower to bullies anyway. "Ofcourse, now get out of my way. I have business to attend to." She said cheerily, her mom was right at the other side of the glass.
"For now, but the officer's not gonna be here all the time." The woman, Cathy spat.
"Oh whatever move." She waved dismissively.
"Get out of the way Cathy." The officer ordered and she stepped aside reluctantly. Sending Jessie a glare which she ignored as the walked by.
Jessie could not contain her joy, she even forgot that she was in a prison. She forgot she was heartbroken, she forgot she was anything but an honest child in need of her mother's hug.
She practically ran to the visitor's room, breathing nervously as she paused by the door.
"How do I look?" She asked the officer passing by.
"Really? I tell you a drop dead gorgeous man was looking for ya and you dismiss me, no you asking how you look?" She wondered.
Jessie rolled her eyes. 'Oh him?' "He's not important, my mother is."
The officer brow furrowed and she bit her lip and shook her head, thinking about the disappointment waiting for her behind the door. "Girl, go if it's really yo mama. She wouldn't care."
"Right?" She nodded nervously, pulling on her jumpsuit she walked in.
But as expected her mother wasn't the person she saw. Her bright eyes dulled, and her smile disappeared. She looked back at the officer then at Jason pleading expression.
"Would someone tell me what the hell is going on!" She yelled.

"Jessie, I'm sorry." Jason said quickly. And Jessie sent him an icy glare.
"What do you mean by... where's my mom?" She asked. "Was that a lie?" She asked when she saw his expression. She scoffed and turned around to walk away and the officer blocked her way.
"No missy, that man's been here more than an hour you will see him." She insisted.
Jessie wiped her eyes and looked back at Jason. "Get out of my way."
She let out a sob when the woman didn't let her pass. Jumping in fright when she felt a hand on her shoulder. She spun around and smacked Jason's hand away when she realized it was him.
"Jessie, please there been a misunderstanding." He said.
"Yes Jason there has, you deceiving me and stupid me believing that you actually want to help a stranger that you don't owe a single thing!" She yelled.
"Jessie." He said firmly.
"How could you lie? About my mom!! That is low, even for you." She spat.
Jason sighed. "What was I supposed to do? You wouldn't see me."
"Then maybe you should have gotten the memo and left!"
"How can I leave you here?!"
"How can you not? It's not like you owe me anything."
"I made a promise, I intend to keep." He insisted.
She shook her head. "Well I'm freeing you from it, go away I don't want to see you."
"So what? You're just going to rot in jail for something you didn't do?" He huffed.
"What is it to you? Shouldn't you actually be relieved? Now you must have time to concentrate on that bitch fiancee of yours!"
"What is wrong with you!" He yelled.
"Nothing Jason, nothing at all. Actually I'm better than ever, I actually now realise my situation and I accept it."
He scoffed. "And what would that be?"
"That I've been a utter naive and blatant fool believing and relying on someone else to fix my problems for me."
"Someone else? I'm suddenly someone else?!" He laughed incredulously.
"And what else would you be? You're not my husband, nor my boyfriend. Hell we don't have any relationship so what else?" She spat.
Jason laughed bitterly. "You really are a bitch aren't you?" Jessie brows rose at his accusation. "Are my feelings just a joke to you?"

She looked away and sighed. "..... stop fooling around Jason, you're engaged to another woman." She said slowly.
And Jaosn wanted to rip out his hair in frustration. "So what?"
"So what?! You don't proclaim your love to someone else when you engaged to another Jason." She said.
"How many times do I have to tell you, you're the one I love!" He exclaimed.
"Yeah, yeah. I would have believed this if you had been in this situation aganist your wishes. But now you don't have to be yet you still are."
"So what now? I'm engaged yeah, but I love you. And that's a problem why? Is not like you love me, or did you suddenly develop a heart?" He sassed.
And Jessie mouth open in surprise. "Are you saying I'm a heartless and unfeeling woman?"
"Actions speak louder than words Jess." He stated matter of factly.
"Correct they do... yet you still fail to see what is right in front of you!" She screamed. "I can't, I can't do this. Go away, just go." She said sounding exasperated and tired.
"No, I'm not leaving here till I tell you what I came here to. You might not believe me but I'm rather determined to get you out of here." He said.
She gave him a lasting glare before she finally spoke. "Fine say what you must."
Jason opened his mouth to speak but shut again. "Are you really this mad because I went to see Patricia earlier today?" He sighed.
"What? Did you think I don't know Jonathan told you?" He asked when he noticed her surprised expression.
"How?"
"Are you really going to believe what Jonathan tells you? Over me?" He asked again.
"Fine, tell me. Why were you with Patricia? Why are you still engaged to her if you love me?"
"Come, sit. I'll explain everything just please let me explain?" He nudged her lightly.
Biting her lip she reluctantly agreed, seating down. He pulled another chair from another booth and sat in front of her. Neither of them even caring as to how many rules they were both breaking by being at the same side of the glass. But it was apparent to Jessie that he had ties in that prison as well.
"I need you to tell the prosecution everything, from you're kidnap, to the auction house and how you ended up with me. Everything." He said
"What? Why the hell would I do that? Are you crazy, who would believe me?" She bombarded him with questions.
"Just do it, that's the only way to het you out of this unscathed for the long run." He said.
"That's not going to happen, no one would believe me." She shook her head.
"It doesn't matter, they can't put you away with the evidence they have anyway." He said.
"That's not true, there an eye witness." She insisted.
"So? You didn't kill Diana Flores, and you're an actress, a busy actress. Tony assured me you have a rock solid alibi for the past two years." He said. "So unless.... there's no way the witness would hold much anyway."
"Really? Well if I'm already going to get out why must I spill on everything?"
"Why are you so against this?" Jasona asked.
"It sounds unbelievable." She insisted.
"Oh please, that not the reason. You scared aren't you?" He smiled softly. "You might not love me but you certainly care about me. Don't worry about me and say everything."
Jessie wanted to act non chalant and dismiss him but her curiosity won. "What do you mean? This is going to be disastrous for you, if I do this then I'm not different from the bomb Paul always said I was."
"Please just trust me, hmm. And you asked why I'm still with Patricia, I need her to get to that auction house again. Goerge will definitely not invite me back since I refused to sign whatever entrapment he gave me." He stated, reaching to grab her arm he looked into her eyes. "If we can prove the auction house then we can move your story."
When Jason saw she still hesitated he sighed."I'll be fine, I promise. Just do as I tell you okay. I don't want you here more than you should okay."
She nodded slowly, "I still can't believe I'm in prison."
