"Oh, it's Miss Alice!" Weston loosened his grip on Jessica's waist.Alice still smiled as if she hadn't seen Jessica. Alice walked forward, picked up a glass of wine and handed it to Weston. Weston took it in a hurry.Also, Alice picked up another glass of wine. "Mr. Weston, haven't seen you for a long time. Last time, my father took me to have meal with you! Cheers!"Then Alice drank the glass of wine in one gulp."Ha ha, Miss Alice is so sassy!"A smile flashed through Alice's eyes. She curled her lips with a smile, "Mr. Weston, you also need drink the glass of wine in one gulp."Weston raised his hand and gulped the wine down. At that moment, a man contained Jessica and dragged her to sit beside Alice and Weston.Alice reached out to pick up a full glass of wine on the table and put it in front of Weston. Then she continued to drink.Weston glanced at it. A trace of embarrassment flashed through his eyes. He hid his embarrassment quickly. He took the glass but put it on the
Jessica and Alice retreated to the door as they pretended to fight with each other. Jessica remembered that Alice had said this place was owned by one of her friends, so she pinned her hope on Alice, believing she could open the door.But suddenly, Jessica’s waist was grabbed by Mr. Weston from behind."Miss Bailey, I’d like to apologize on behalf of Jessica. Please wash the clothes yourself. Jessica can't go! She must stay!""Miss Bailey, though you came here uninvited, if you don’t want to go, we can have fun together!"Mr. Weston was still acting greasy. He gave a smirk as if he had seen them through but decided not to expose their plan. Jessica kept struggling, but he pulled her back into his arms.His big face approached Jessica with disgusting and foul breath.Jessica raised her hand and slapped him!Mr. Weston glared at her furiously, "How dare you!"He yelled that he would beat Jessica up. Jessica held Alice’s hand, and they stepped back together. They were definitely n
Jessica turned around. It was Christian! "Why are you here?" She asked in a low voice. "Are you okay?" Christian did not answer her question but asked back with concern. "Who the hell are you? How dare you mess with me!" The man who was beaten covered his mouth and rolled on the ground. Since his face was swollen, his speech was slurred. He was still screaming, but he shut up immediately when he looked up and saw who was standing beside Jessica. He spoke haltingly on his knees, “Mr... Mr. Maddox..." "I did not know that you were also playing here. I am so sorry for accidentally annoying your female companion..." the man explained in a panic and stammered from nervousness unconsciously. Christian did not have time to bother with this man. He angrily shouted, “Get out!" Christian’s voice was so sharp that the man was frightened. “Okay. Okay. I will get out right now..." He ran away in a flash in case the power came
Jessica understood Christian's hint. He once said that her father's death might be related to a foreign consortium...Christian had explained this to her several times. She might be able to believe him..."Don't you think nonsense! Leave everything to me." Christian embraced her, and his voice reassured her.They snuggled together-She had avoided him for days, and the long-lost sweet feeling rushed to her heart.In the dull moonlight, Jessica gently closed her eyes and allowed herself to relax in his arms.Christian stroked her back with his large palm. The warmth of his hands provided a steady stream of energy to her body. All this energy was proof that he cared for her-"I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt..." She smiled."Give me the benefit of the doubt?" Christian suddenly put his head against hers, gently.Jessica turned her head slightly to look back. His eyes reflected in her eyes, as if they were shining stars with the outline of her face faintly reflected in them
"But why did you come here?" Jessica asked suspiciously.Alice frowned, "I just want to know who is coming today!"She met Jessica outside the box today and heard her say that the crew of the girl group show was gathering here, so Alice wanted to know if Wade was coming.She later asked her friend to help check and found that Wade didn't seem to be there, but Alice was reluctant and went in to find out for herself."I happened to see that the party wasn't as simple as you said. I just came to relax." Alice said casually.Jessica didn't think much of it. She thought Alice was concerned about who was coming to play and was looking out for her future rival of girl group show, but didn't think of Wade."How do you know I'm not talking about relaxing in that way?" Jessica asked.Alice rolled her eyes at her, "Although I don't like you, I'm not so far gone as to misunderstand your character."At that time, Jessica went on stage barefoot, and she was not afraid of being misunderstood
The next day.The hosts of several divisions of the girl group show all came to the Jakesville TV Station. They met and approached each other for the next finals.Adela pretended to be nice to Jessica, but Jessica was too lazy to deal with her and just pretended not to see her.During the meeting, Adela's phone kept ringing, which caused everyone to complain. Then she went out to take a call and came back with a bad look on her face.Jessica didn't care, but after the meeting, she went to the coffee shop downstairs to get coffee and bumped into Adela.Adela was arguing with a woman sitting across from her...Jessica intentionally stayed for a moment. She was concerned because the woman sitting across from Adela was no other than Hazel."The contract was all finalized last time, and we've discussed the details of the price three times. We have already made an unconditional compromise, and now you suddenly say that you won’t sign it. The show will start recording soon. Where do yo
Jessica had a glib tongue. Hazel was amused and burst into laughter.Adela couldn't stand it anymore. She carried her bag and left angrily.Hazel held Jessica's arm. "Jess, are you going to take part in the program?""Yes. Do you think that I just want to provoke her?""How about the remuneration? Don't you bargain?" Hazel continued to ask.Jessica smiled, "I know that the scale of your program is small and has few startup costs. My remuneration is up to you. It's a deal. However, if I bring a popular star to the program and gain more investments, you can give me a fairer remuneration."Hazel laughed, "OK. If we get many investments but you only get few remunerations, I will feel uneasy! I like to cooperate with you. You're straightforward!"Hazel relaxed completely. Unexpectedly, she came to sign the contract with Adela but got a surprise.Hazel thought of something and asked Jessica, "By the way, you say that you can bring a popular star to the program. How is the person's po
"What?"Jessica was curious when Christian reached out his large palm to cover her eyes.His palm was warm. She could clearly smell the refreshing fragrance of his hand."I think it’s not a special day today…"Jessica couldn't help but wonder what surprise Christian was preparing.She heard him press something in his hand, and then a slight mechanical sound rang out and an incredible door opened in front of her.He removed his hand that was covering her eyes. She was utterly amazed to see that there was a hidden mechanism here.Here was the wall that connected the study to the guest room next door. As the hidden secret compartment opened, the arrangement inside the guest room came into view."Take a look. Do you like this?" Christian's voice was deep.Jessica took a few steps forward and looked at the room with the walls of different colors, the color-coordinated sofa desk and bed, and the princess tent on the bed. It was exactly how her room had looked when she was a child!
