Chapter 845: Chapter 819: What Do I Need You For If Everything is Already Sorted Out (Thanks to the Overlord’s reward from Xiao Nen Xue 4 more chapters) Chapter 845: Chapter 819: What Do I Need You For If Everything is Already Sorted Out (Thanks to the Overlord’s reward from Xiao Nen Xue 4 more chapters) Jenny Bailey had been anxiously waiting outside, her heart filled with worry. Upon seeing Jojo co out, she didn’t know why, but tears stread down her face uncontrollably, and the first words she uttered blew her cover.
Jojo hadn’t understood that soone had exposed their alternate persona yet, and since they weren’t close, the sight of the girl crying so hard made him feel sorry for her. He hurried to comfort her.
“I’m okay, my dad just locked up for two days and made eat boiled cabbage, but he didn’t hit .”
“I am Hilda Blanc, Pebble, I am Sonic Lily!!” Jenny was crying so hard that she was incomprehensible. At that mont, it felt as if their bond had transcended life and death, and she didn’t understand why she was so upset, feeling a gut-wrenching pain.
“Hilda Blanc?!” Jojo was also very surprised.
This journalist was the cute little Lily he had been chatting with online for so long?!
Jojo was forcibly brought here by his father to endure abuse, and his greatest regret wasn’t anything else but missing the eting with his cute little online friend that was supposed to happen soon.
He had been talking to little Lily for a long ti; although neither of them had said they liked the other, the budding feelings between them were palpable. Jojo even had a premonition that sothing was bound to happen as soon as they t.
But unexpectedly, they had already t before, only, at the ti, they were oblivious to each other’s real identity.
And he never imagined that their next eting would be under such circumstances.
As he watched Jenny, who was hugging him and sobbing, Jojo’s initial response was—
“Damn, if I’d known you were coming, I would have taken a shower! Don’t co any closer, I sll, my dad is such a bastard for not letting bathe and making sweat by feeding boiled cabbage…”
Though Jojo didn’t have a man’s physique, he was more of a man than anyone else. Despite what he had gone through, he managed to stay so tough. Jenny truly felt her heart stir, not because of his female body, but purely because she liked his character.
The two looked deeply into each other’s eyes, as if they had sothing to say, yet not knowing what to voice out.
“Jojo, what exactly does your dad do? You never told your family was so wealthy!” Kiara said.
Olivia Brown and Giorno were already wrapped in each other’s arms, and the fear from just monts ago lingered as they reflected how close it was to not making it out.
“Man, don’t even ntion it. My old man has been doing business with others for years, not very smoothly and quite down on his luck. These past few years while I’ve been at university, he got into mining with so folks and suddenly struck it rich. The first thing he did was focus on , but thank goodness you guys ca, or I might have been trapped by him for a lifeti!”
When Jojo Father had locked up Jojo, he made it clear: as long as his child wasn’t cured, he wouldn’t let him out.
“Did they use electric shock on you? I found out that your dad bought electric shock equipnt.”
“I don’t know where he dug up this self-proclaid authoritative expert from so small nation who insisted he could cure . He even convinced my dad to buy an electric shock device. My dad probably didn’t know what it was for when he bought it; he was just told it was for therapy. So, when it arrived, my dad tried it out of curiosity on the Mastiff Clan… Well, you know the outco.”
Electric shock is excruciatingly painful, like millions of ants biting your veins, a pain that can make you fall apart.
Though Jojo Father was anxious to have his daughter get better soon, he couldn’t bring himself to use such a thod on Jojo and didn’t agree to use it, at least for the ti being. The plan was to lock up Jojo for a few days and if things didn’t improve, they would consider the expert’s advice.
“I looked into that nation, and they don’t even have any internationally recognized psychiatric treatnt facilities, so how could they have experts? They do have many crude treatnt thods that aren’t publicly accepted. Last year, an authoritative organization for international psychiatry had already criticized them, and your dad actually believed them!”
Kiara found it unbelievable. The field of psychological therapy in the Dostic Region might not have started early, but it wasn’t ignorant to such an extent. Jojo Father had looked all over the world and ended up with the worst option recognized by no authoritative institutions—what kind of expert is that?
He might as well be called a “brick expert”!
“Who knows what he’s thinking. He hadn’t been paying much attention to these past few years, but all of a sudden this year, he went crazy, wanting to return to ‘normal’! I think I’m pretty good the way I am now; it’s the old man who’s not normal… And to think you’re actually Sonic Lily!”
Jojo was surprised to learn that the journalist was the internet friend with whom he had got along so well.
Jojo saved a lot of girls, using his special physical condition to help so many, and although he didn’t find a romance of his own among those he had helped, it was Jenny Bailey who ended up saving Jojo this ti.
Giorno asked Jojo a few questions and conducted a simple psychological test to see if Jojo had suffered any psychological damage from the incident and whether he needed any psychological intervention, and Kiara added a few more questions.
Fortunately, although Jojo Father forcibly brought him back, he didn’t let that so-called “expert” treat Jojo roughly, so Jojo didn’t have any psychological trauma.
Kiara was indispensable in the whole affair, her presence not only comforted Jojo greatly, diluting the fear brought on by this extrely unpleasant experience, but more importantly, Kiara arrived just in ti.
A little bit later, and Jojo Father would have already been brainwashed by that fake expert, ready to forcibly treat Jojo under the pretense of love.
Now Jojo only had a belly full of cabbage and worked up a bit of a sweat; otherwise, he was okay.
Kiara’s plan was to leave imdiately after the rescue, as it was too unsafe to stay in a foreign place once there was any sign of trouble.
Everyone took the ambulance straight to the Airport, and as soon as Kiara got out of the vehicle, she saw soone coming out of the airport. She blinked, wondering why this person looked so much like Camden from her family?
Could it be that she hadn’t seen him in a few days, and she was hallucinating?
Not until the person approached and touched her hair did Kiara realize that this was indeed her family’s Arua Camden!!!
“How did you…?!” Kiara hadn’t co to terms with the situation; Mario Yuno she hadn’t seen for several days suddenly appeared before her!
The others had puzzled faces throughout.
Completely clueless as to how Mario Yuno showed up here.
“I had just gotten off the airplane when Elder Brother called and said you were here, so I ca over,” he said.
Nothing reassured Kiara more than seeing Mario Yuno; her nervousness dissipated like the thaw of spring.
Mario Yuno had gotten a bit darker in the few days they hadn’t seen each other, and the sharpness about him hadn’t faded; Kiara leaned against him, and he imdiately held her hand.
“Is everything resolved?” Mario Yuno’s gaze lingered on Jojo, who looked quite miserable and didn’t sll too great, but fortunately, his spirit was okay.
“It’s different from what I had imagined and has so flaws, but the outco is acceptable,” she replied.
Kiara did not want to escape this way, but things had gotten to a point where, if they didn’t run, Jojo would definitely suffer.
“No worries, I’m here now; let’s go buy tickets to go ho,” he said.
Mario Yuno was about to lead them away when suddenly there was an uproar behind them.
“It’s them! Don’t let them get away!”
Kiara and Mario Yuno exchanged a glance to see several people coming down from a van, all brawny, but upon a closer look, several had injuries on their faces—they were the sa people who had just fought with them!
Besides them, there were a few more.
Mario Yuno raised an eyebrow, “More pursuers? Daughter-in-law, you haven’t been very slick today, have you?”
“If I was slick, what would I need you for?” Kiara gave him a sideways look, full of assertiveness.
