She walked around the supermarket for two or three hours, just looking for something cheap.
His heart felt like it was being torn apart. It was extremely painful.
In fear of being exposed, Peter did not follow Jessica to her place.
He stopped at an intersection a block away.
However, he had specially chosen this place, where he could see the house she lived.
Peter sat in the car and waited.
It was until that dark room lit up with a faint light that his anxious mood eventually got relaxed.
She was home now.
Although this place was in the city center, the house was already quite old and had already been divided into separate rooms for renting.
The tenants lived in awful conditions with aged facilities.
Although he had already changed the light bulb at the staircase, the facilities in the room were definitely in poor condition.,
Before coming here. Peter had never expected her life to be so difficult.
Marina had arranged everything for her so she could have led a better life.
But it was because of him that she had come here alone and suffered from hardships.
He had hurt her so much, but he didn’t expect that her suffering was much more than that.
What should he do?
What could he do to make her life better?
The yellow lamp went out after about two hours.
Peter slowly took back his gaze.
However, he did not leave.
He found a private detective to investigate Jessica’s living conditions.
The generous payment brought high efficiency.
In just one night, his email received all the information he may need the next morning.
Peter carefully read the materials word by word, not a detail left.
He constructed the life of Jessica during this period in his mind.
However, the more he read, the more heartbroken he felt.
In the end, he could not stand it anymore and turned off the phone.
He leaned faintly against the chair and covered his eyes with his hands.
If he read them a few more times, he would not be able to resist the urge to beat himself up.
What a bastard he was! Why did he push her so hard and make her suffer so much?
She had experienced hardships before escaping from the abyss of her original family.
But later, everything was ruined by him. He destroyed her life.
There had to be a way to make it up to her.
He fell into calm thought.
Meanwhile, Jessica had already come down.
It’s a work day. She was about to go to school.
To save time, she bought a second–hand bicycle.
Every morning, she rode her bike to school with the bread in her mouth.
The school life here was actually different from domestically.
Back in Calirina, students were buried with heavy learning tasks from middle school to high school.
But university life would be much easier and free.
However, here the situation is completely different.
Students were faced with much less academic pressure before university. But once entering university, the schoolwork would become overwhelmingly heavy.
Even Jessica found it a little strenuous.
Fortunately, she had a good memory. If she could make use of the time after class, she wouldn’t lag behind.
The reason why she was studying so hard was not only because she wanted to keep up with her studies, but also because she wanted to be excellent in every subject!
Only in this way could she become qualified to work for Marina.
When she was not working. Jessica made full use of every minute and was always studying.
Today was no exception.
After class, Jessica immediately went to the library.
Just as Jessica was focused on reading, the phone in her pocket suddenly vibrated.
Jessica took it out and took a look.
It was from her tutor.
It said that she had to go to his office.
Jessica did not hesitate. She packed up her books and left the library.
Her tutor was also Calirinan.
However, his grandfather had immigrated the family to this country.
However, he still loved his motherland.
He could fluently speak Calirinan.
He knew that Jessica was in a difficult situation and had been helping her.
It was he who offered her the well–paid job of being a translator.
Therefore, when the tutor asked her to go over this time, Jessica thought that she would get a new job.
When she arrived at the instructor’s office.
Jessica knocked three times in a polite manner.
“Please come in. A deep male voice came from inside.
Jessica then pushed the door open and entered.
Her tutor, Karter, immediately stood up.
He was 35 years old. But he took good care of himself, so he looked like a young elite.
As soon as he saw Jessica, a smile immediately bloomed on his face.
“Jessi, I have good news to tell you.” Because he was mixed–race, his face was blessed with exotic charm.
However, his eyes were indeed black. In school, he was known as the most handsome male teacher.
“Is there a new job?”
People call her fessi in school. As most of their classmates were foreigners, they could prefer to call her this way.
“No, no. I applied for a very generous scholarship for you,” Karter said excitedly.
“A scholarship? I remember you have given it to me before.” Jessica was a little surprised.
“It’s not that. This is a donation from a Calirinan entrepreneur to support the Calirina students from poor families.
“The moment I received this news, I went to apply for it for you. Now that the application has been approved, you should be able to receive money in the next two days.”
Although Karter’s appearance was still more like a Calirinan, he had grown up in this country so he had many habits similar to foreigners.
He always gesticulated with his waving hands when he spoke. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
“Thank you. When Jessica heard this, her heart was filled with gratitude.
“Do you know how generous this scholarship is?” He looked excited.
Jessica casually named a number.
Karter immediately shook his head and said a number that shocked Jessica.
“What?” Jessica frowned in both surprise and confusion.
“Yes!” Karter even looked more excited than Jessica.
However, Jessica lowered her head.
“What’s wrong? Are you not satisfied? You should know that with this scholarship, you can finish your last semester. So you don’t have to do part–time jobs to earn the tuition.” He felt quite confused about her reaction.
“Karter, please tell me the truth. Is it your money?” Jessica directly voiced her doubt.
