Chapter 42
Jessioa hadn’t even finished speaking when a familiar male volce came from the side, Terry walked over to her.
His brownish eyes curved slightly as he looked at Cedrick, “I’ll pay one billion and I’ll take her away, Mr. White.”
Jessica had been in the hall for more than ten minutes, but she hadn’t met Terry. She thought that he hadn’t come tonight. She didn’t expect to meet him at this time.
Cedrick could not afford to offend Terry, so he gritted his teeth and looked at Jessica before turning to leave resentfully,
Jessica tilted her head and glanced at Terry. She raised her glass and smiled. “Thank you.”
“My pleasure.” Terry raised his glass and lightly clinked it against the edge of hers, looking at her wryly.
Terry took a sip of red wine. “Miss Hall, you seem to be in a good mood today.”
Jessica looked at him and raised her eyebrows slightly, “Kind of.”
After all, nothing particularly bad happened recently except for the rumors.
Nearly twenty minutes passed after Jessica entered the hall, so she had known all the people she should know and she exchanged necessary conversations with them.
She put down the red wine and said, “Mr. Davison, excuse me.”
After saying this, Jessica found Wendy and said, “Wendy, please ask the driver to drive the car at the door. I’ll leave after going to the restroom.”
Wendy nodded and quickly took out her phone to call the driver.
The restroom was a bit far. One had to turn left at the end of a long corridor.
There weren’t many people in the restroom, so Jessica came out quickly.
On the way back, she saw nobody. There was an open balcony leading to the outside.
The balcony was not big, about twelve or thirteen square meters. There were two sets of coffee tables and chairs, which were served to rest.
Jessica could faintly hear someone talking outside the balcony from five or six meters away. She heard the two people outside mention her name, so she stopped.
“Did you see Jessica wear the set of qualified clothes designed by Tomie? It’s more than 600,000 dollars! It looks like she really found a rich Sugar Daddy!”
“Oh, you only looked at her dress. Did you see her anklets? There are limited numbers in the world, ninety-nine in total. You can’t even buy one with money!”
“Really? It seems that her Sugar Daddy is quite generous! Her man looks ordinary in the picture, but he has a good figure. Is this Jessica’s new boyfriend?”
“How silly you are. Jessica and Lucas just divorced not long ago. How could she find such a rich boyfriend? She is obviously only a doll of her sugar daddy!”
“You’re right. Jessica is divorced, and she is divorced from Lucas. Anyone from a decent family won’t be so stupid to touch her! Wow, in that case, Jessica’s dream of becoming a rich lady is shattered!”
Jessica couldn’t help but click her tongue. She looked down at her phone. It was only 8:30. She had enough time to deal with these two gossip women.
