Triplets Attack: Game Over Daddy

Chapter 34 Self Defense Tools

Elizabeth had looked it up on the internet last night. However, there were too many types of

self-defense tools to choose from. Also, she did not know whether those tools would work.

Moreover, she was so poor now that she did not want to waste her money.

Thus, if Jessica knew anything about those tools, she could just share them with Elizabeth.

Meanwhile, Jessica was enjoying the dishes made by Cody. Since Pearl’s condition had been

pretty serious recently, Jessica could not leave the hospital. Hence, she had been eating takeout

for several months now. In fact, she had been eating so much takeout that she would puke if she

had another such meal.

She looked very haggard. After working in Night City until four o’clock at night, she still had

to go to the hospital to change shifts with the caregiver at seven o’clock. Therefore, she slept very

little, and her mental state was not very good these days.

Jessica ate a piece of pork and smiled.

“Why are you suddenly thinking of buying self-defense tools? Did anyone bully you?”

Jessica was a clever woman. Being someone who had lots of life experiences, she caught on

fast enough.

Hearing her question, Elizabeth was a little nervous. If she told her that Matthew had

forcefully kissed her last night and almost slept with her, Jessica would definitely tell her that it

was a good thing and that she did not need to guard against him.

Elizabeth took a sip of water, trying to suppress the awkwardness she was feeling.

“It’s just that I’m going to have a part-time job at night these days. So, I’m afraid of meeting

bad people. I’ll feel a little bit more secure if I have a self-defense tool with me.”

Jessica nodded slightly. “You’re right. After I finish eating, I’ll bring you to a store where you

can shop for what you need. Everything in that store is quite practical.”

Elizabeth was planning to buy those tools on the internet. However, after Jessica said that

there was a physical store, Elizabeth felt that it was even better, as the quality would be more

guaranteed.

After Jessica finished eating, they left the four children to Cody. Elizabeth was not worried

since Arthur and Antony were there.

Those two boys were very obedient and would take good care of Abby and Pearl.

After that, the two went to the store, which was not far from the pediatric hospital. It only

took over ten minutes to walk there.

Jessica knew about Elizabeth’s situation. She knew that Elizabeth’s heart ached every time

she drove. Therefore, Jessica did not propose that they took the car.

The two walked on the street in the winter as the warm sunlight shone upon them.

Jessica’s hand was hooked around Elizabeth’s arm. She took a deep breath and smiled.

“It’s been a long time since I stood under the sun. I really hope Pearl can get better soon.

When that happens, I think my life will start to have hope.”

After experiencing such a hardship, Jessica felt that possibly nothing else could ever bring

her down anymore.

Hearing that, Elizabeth rubbed Jessica’s arm compassionately. “It’s all my fault for being too

poor. I couldn’t help you at all.”

“It’s even more difficult for you. You have to raise three children. It’s already difficult enough

for me just to raise one. It’s much worse for you. Lizzy, it’s enough to have you by my side. Do

understand?” asked Jessica as she touched Elizabeth’s face lightly.

Nothing was better than having a close friend by one’s side. Having a shoulder to cry on and

someone to share one’s happiness with were the best things in life.

Jessica and Elizabeth looked at each other and smiled. It seemed as if they had been

accompanying each other all these years, and it felt so good to have such a companion.

They walked and chatted all the way to the store. Soon, they arrived at the store, which was

a small jewelry store.

Elizabeth usually did not have time to go shopping, so she did not know that these small

stores sold self defense tools as well.

After the two entered the store, Jessica brought her a few bottles of pepper spray. Elizabeth

felt that those were so big that she could only put them in her bag. However, she could not carry

her bag all the time when she cleaned Matthew’s house.

Thus, she asked the staff, “Do you have smaller ones here?”

The staff quickly took out a beautiful ring that was beset with a red, heart-shaped stone. It

was supposed to be worn on the index finger.

“Miss, this is the latest version. It’s small, easy to carry, and looks good as an accessory.”

The staff pressed the stone as she spoke. Instantly, a thin and long needle stretched out from

the front of the stone.

“This needle has been soaked in anesthesia. Your opponent will be paralyzed for about five minutes after being stabbed by it. It’s a life-saving tool for girls.”
