Chapter 198
Jessica smiled. She did not seem to care about those words.
She mused, "Wealthy family? Noble identity? This is nonsense. It'd be better to say she is arrogant because she is wealthy. Noble? I don't think so."
If one were not wearing expensive clothes and had pimples on her face due to lacking maintenance, she would not be noble even if she was the daughter of the wealthiest person. It was true that clothes made the man.
"Jessica, let me bring you there." Trevor did not want Jessica to listen to that nonsense again.
"Okay."
Jessica nodded and did not want to listen either. She followed Trevor, and they came near to marble tiles. They had smiles on their faces.
They smiled more, looking at those big shots and influential people.
They thought, Since when will they be around us,
trying to please us.
"Hey. Jessica, your lipstick is nice!"
"Yes, Jessica. What is the brand of your shoes? It's beautiful!"
"Jessica, I want to organize a small gathering tomorrow. Are you free?"
"Jessica, I am getting married the day after tomorrow. Can you come over to my marriage?"
These influential people would be so proud if any of them could invite Jessica to their respective events.
However, she could only stand in a corner, witnessing them living in the upper class society from far away. Of course, she could have put down the wine glass in her hand and returned to where she belonged. However, no one would compliment her for now. Everyone would see her differently than before. Now, she did not even have the qualification to enter their events if she wasn't following Trevor.
"What's it? Are you unhappy? Do you want me to
bring you to eat something?"
Trevor frowned more, looking at Jessica deep in her thoughts. The former was very worried about the latter's condition. Trevor thought, "Is she sad?"
"Nothing. I just need to use the restroom."
Jessica waved her hand and strode away in her high heels.
"Tony, go..."
Trevor beckoned over Tony and whispered in his ear.Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
"Noted."
Tony nodded solemnly after replying to her.
Jessica came to a restroom and stared at herself in the mirror.
She thought, It had been three years. Sometimes I would think of the face when I was still Jessica. Now Lam not prettier than before. Although we look similar, there was still a discernible difference.
"Have you all heard of that? Mr. Gulliford brought two girls here today."
"I have seen them. One of them is his secretary and another is the daughter of the Whiteburn family."
"I agree that our temperament and
identity lose to the daughter of the
Whiteburn family. She is good at buttering up Old Mr. Gulliford
anyway. But, how can the secretary join in this event? Who is she?"
"True. It seems like Mr. Gulliford is always protecting her as if he is afraid someone will bully her. There are so many other better choices, and don't understand why would Mr Gulliford like her."
"What do you understand? Maybe he just wants to try something different."
Those girls were laughing hard as they had their conversation. As soon as they said that, they raised their gazes and noticed Jessica in front of the sink in the washroom. They smiled, turned, and left. There was a hint of mockery in their eyes.
Jessica pursed her lips and furrowed her brows.
Perhaps, she shouldn't have shown up.
