Mrs. Brown turned around, looked at me beside her, and sneered, "David, I know everything about you. If you truly have the ability to keep Jess safe, how did your parents die back then? The rules of this world are beyond your imagination! Someone like you, who can only struggle at the bottom, is not even qualified to make such a promise!"
Mrs. Brown' words were sharp, and Jessica Brown couldn't listen any longer, hurriedly saying, "Mom, you're being too much!"
Mrs. Brown stared at me with interest, seeing that I didn't say a word, and spoke again, "Too much? Where am I too much? I'm just helping this kid see the world clearly!"
"Jess, I really don't understand why you fancy this kid? No ability, no status, you heard my big talk that day, within half a year, the Brown family won't be able to match me. Martinez't you find such a man laughable? Now I even claim I can guarantee your safety, with what?"
For a moment, Jessica Brown found herself unable to refute.
