When the spectators saw this scene through the large screen, they all shook their heads. They thought that if that supercar belonged to Lester or anyone else, they would be far ahead in the lead. It was useless in Jennifer’s hands.Everyone felt that it was such a shame. However, they saw Jennifer, who was originally lagging behind, suddenly take sixth place with her very skilful driving during a sharp turn.At the next four heart-stopping turns, Jennifer surpassed Lester in one fell swoop to take the lead.Lester and the rest were left behind. No matter how hard they tried, no one could catch up to Jennifer.In the end, she crossed the finish line first.Everyone was frozen in astonishment before they started standing and clapping one after another, cheering.Martin was the second to cross the finish line. He hopped out of the car before it had even fully stopped to run to Jennifer. “You handled those continuous sharp turns so beautifully! Even I’m not as daring as you are.“Th
On the other end of the call, Shawn hummed in acknowledgment. “Yeah.”Jennifer’s personality was as different from Jenna’s as heaven and earth. Even if Shawn wanted to hide it, anyone who had interacted with Jenna before would be able to tell.He happened to need Caleb’s help to protect Jennifer too, so he simply admitted it.With just a few short words, Caleb, who spent months on end holed up in his studio alone and had cultivated a monk-like temper, lost his calm as he kept looking over at Jennifer beside him.When he ran into Jenna that night at the bar, Caleb had thought her aura had changed because she changed her hairstyle…Unexpectedly, she turned out to have a split personality.Although the Brahms had been in politics for three generations and Martin did grow up with them, he did not have the air of a politician.The boy had only just come of age in January this year. He was tall and slender, had dark hair and thin lips, and was full of endless vitality and enthusiasm.
“I know him.” Jennifer smiled lazily, her chin propped on her hand.When the man came over and sat down, Jennifer finally saw who it was. She just never expected an actor like James to have such a good relationship with Martin.James glanced at Jennifer and smiled. “We do know each other, but this is our first time meeting.”“How did you guys get to know each other?” Martin asked.James took two sips of his champagne and said casually, “She was the one who connected me to the rich lady supporting me right now.”“Pfft!” Lester spat his champagne out. “James, you’re so poor that you have to sell your body now?”“Why would I be showing my face on TV if I wasn’t poor?” The man spread his arms and rested them across the back of the couch. He was not as refined as he seemed on TV, with a wild air about him that made people fear him.“My body is pretty valuable. If you guys tried this life, the rich ladies might not even be willing to pay ten thousand dollars for you.”“James is still
The wall was too hard and cold for Jenna so she raised herself slightly to lean her entire body weight on Quinn’s arm. “Aren’t you scared James Faulkner will come over and then you’ll have to act out a scene of who’s the real one and who’s the fake?”“He won’t. He’s staying in his apartment.”Jenna reached out to feel for Quinn’s cheek before moving to his forehead. Soon, she peeled off a thin, mask-like object from the man’s face.It was only then did she feel for the light switch and turned on the warm wall light. At the sight of his familiar face and his dark but smiling eyes, Jenna held her breath and she caressed his face lightly.She leaned in to lick away the blood on his lips before kissing him gently. Quinn leaned in, reciprocating just as tenderly.After a long kiss, Jenna’s voice was a little hoarse. “I haven’t seen you in such a long time.”Even if Quinn met with her previously with Tom’s face, that was not him. She had also realized that the last few times she saw him was
If it were not for that heart-stopping glance Jenna threw his way near the church back then that made him look into Jenna secretly…They probably would have passed each other by forever.If he did not have Jenna, his life would have remained stagnant and felt long and lonely.Worried that Jenna was tired of standing, he carried her over to the couch and sat her on his lap.He tidied her mussed hair. “Your acting was so good that we all thought you had dissociative identity disorder. Xavier hates that split personality of yours and is contacting hypnotists already.”“How did you notice then if my acting was that good?” Jenna asked, poking his cheek.Quinn chuckled. “You slipped up that night at Shawn’s place.”Only Jenna would play with his hair, his Adam’s apple, or his digits like a child when she was bored. Jennifer’s type of personality would not do that.The more he thought about it over the past two days, the more suspicious he felt.After finding out Jenna had come to No
Quinn's expression stiffened. Then, he quite candidly expressed in a tone that implied innocence, “When I came into the room, a drunk woman pressed threw herself at me. I guess I must have picked up the stain from there.” “The dance hall has surveillance cameras. Feel free to review the footage.” As a woman, Triss was aware of how fast the smell of perfume can cling to fabric. She seemed to buy Quinn’s explanation, evident by her tense expression slowly drooping. Then, using the light overhead, she managed to catch a glimpse of Quinn’s bruised lower lip. It looked like someone had just bitten his lower lip only moments ago. She stared fixedly at his lower lip and suddenly looked like she was going to pounce on Quinn like a ferocious tiger. “Are you going to tell me that the bruise on your mouth was also left behind by that woman?” Quinn was speechless. In an instant, the room filled with a tense silence. Everybody stiffened when they saw how Triss was interrogating
Everyone was aware that Triss and Jacob got along very well and that there were rumors the two would get married. After the video, everyone was further convinced that the two families were going to join hands. One was the family of a pharmaceutical industry titan, while the other was a real estate tycoon. It was a marriage that would strengthen both parties involved. The entire Internet started reporting on the union between the two companies. The shares of Lebouse Corporation and East Mill Corporation saw vast increases overnight, leaving the shareholders to celebrate merrily. Upon seeing the news, Carina was beyond furious and felt like tearing Jacob apart. She called Jacob, but no one answered. Excellent! She immediately deleted all contact information of Jacob and forbade her housemaids from ever letting Jacob into the house in the future. She then called Jenna out for a drink. To keep everything under cover, Jenna agreed to meet her and proceeded to fake a
“I just happened to be driving past the area, so I went to pick her up.” Jacob had his neck buried deep in stacks of documents all day long, but even that was nothing compared to the intense frustration he felt now. “How was I supposed to know she would blurt out something like that? Then, there were reporters nearby…” Carina laughed sadistically. “You just had to pick her up because you just happened to pass by? Would you like a trophy for being so gracious?” She even clapped mightily a few times as she said this. Jacob pressed a finger over his eyebrows. He was not in the mood for an argument. “Why would I even bother coming here if I wasn’t going to clear things up to you? Can you stop being unreasonable?” “Did you hear what he said?” Carina turned to Jenna. “He says I’m the one being unreasonable!” Jenna was getting fed up with the situation as well. She approached and pulled the man seated with Carina and explained, “Jacob and President Lebouse are on good terms. Si
