He Learns Love After Her Depature novel Chapter 3

Traveling from the mansion to the deaf and mute school using the Second Metro Line required a little more than an hour since she had to commute from the first station to the last station.

Jessica was the daughter of the Scotts, another respectable family in Beijing. Her father, Donald, was over the moon when he got a daughter in his senior years. He had happily claimed that as long as the Scotts had a daughter, he would not ask for anything else, but unfortunately, sometime later, his happiness was replaced by sorrow when the family realized that their precious daughter was mute.-

Donald was a proud man and his mute daughter was probably the biggest shock to his life.

He did not hold a grand baby shower for his daughter, and when she was of age, he also did not send her to a prestigious school, where the children of dignitaries and respectable families went to. Instead, he sent her t o a deaf and mute school quietly.

He barely let his daughter step out of the house. Many teachers were hired to homeschool her. Therefore, with the exception of talking like a normal person, Jessica had mastered dancing, drawing, calligraphy, playing the piano, and even the art of making tea.

His daughter's achievements put him in a dilemma. Although Donald loved his daughter, he was ashamed

of her flaw and did not want the public to know about i t. The public only knew that the Scotts had a daughter, and Donald kept her away from the public like she was his precious treasure.

The second incident that shook Donald’s life happened three years ago, whereby his investment failed. The serious loss brought disaster upon the Scotts, and Donald failed to overcome the pressure. As a tragic consequence, he jumped off a building and met his end.

As for Mrs. Scott, she had always been a loving and supporting wife. Therefore, when her husband jumped off the building, she followed suit. She landed beside her husband’s body and followed him to the netherworld. 4

Soon after their demise, Jessica appeared in the public eye as the Scotts' youngest daughter who was mute.

It was then that she had appeared half-naked in Blake's bed. Her appearance in his bed then led to prove that her only blood relation, her brother, was a b* stard.

As a mute whose family was on the brink of bankruptcy, on top of the fact that she appeared in someone else’s bed in such a degrading way, Jessica was destined to be looked down upon by the Fergusons. 1
