Fall in Love After the Flash Marriage novel Chapter 164

Jenny hits Allen frustratingly, but it is as if she is hitting cotton. The feeble man has not a single ounce of fighting spirit in him, he is nothing like the man that once said he will become a pirate and conquer the seven seas.

She lets go of his collar and takes a step backwards.

The wind from the river blows off her hat, and her hair flutters in the air. Her hair is messy as her life the moment she turns 18.

"I need you to tell me the truth, about what happened back then."

Allen gazes at Jenny, he says with a deep voice, "You have to not meddle in this incident. I am the cause of it and I will make those people pay."

"What are you planning to do?" Jenny suddenly feels anxious, she frowns deeply, "Wait, you are not planning to go fight the people that deceived you into borrowing money from the loan shark, aren't you? You think that the Jin family crumbled because of those grunts?"

The colour of Allen's face changes, he hesitates, "You… you knew?"

Jenny is about to burst.

You, Mr. Yan, made a bet that you can earn ten million in a month over some mediocre woman and went to the loan shark because you couldn't do it in the end. Everybody knows about it, the woman is really something. Did she ever visit you when you are in prison?"

"This has nothing to do with Sapphire..."

"Are you still hung up on her? Allen, are you dumb?" Jenny glares at him furiously.

"Tell me, why do you think Miss Poole hangs around you even though she is engaged? Think about it, who will benefit most from the fall of the Jin's family?"

Back then, everybody knew about Allen putting a lot of effort in courting the rich girl, Sapphire Poole from the Middle Up Group. The story about the bet he made also spread like wildfire. He was young and naive, he couldn't get the money and hence he had the ingenious idea of borrowing from the loan shark. He couldn't pay the cut-throat interest back afterwards but had no guts to tell the family about it. The loan shark then went directly to Jin's Wine.

Jenny believes that her uncle doesn't have the guts to do something like contaminating the wine in the barrels, but she thinks her uncle must be the key to the problem.

"Will you believe me if I tell you that Sapphire was playing you for a fool from the beginning. The bet you made, the reason you went to jail, they were all her according to her plan. The pure and innocent girl that you couldn't forget is not who you think she is, wake up, Allen! Are three years in jail not enough for you to wake up to the truth?"

"Impossible…"

Allen looks like he lost his soul, Jenny cannot help but feel angry at him. She takes out a small notebook she always keeps with her and writes down an address, she tears a page out and presses it on Allen's chest.

"Take this, Sapphire is throwing her son a birthday party this Saturday at seven-thirty in the evening at ML International Hotel, everybody attending are important people from Xicheng. Go take a look at who's standing next to her, and you'll come to the realization of the truth. You can also go ask her directly if she ever cared about you."

Jenny leaves hurriedly, she grits her teeth and is boiling with anger. She knows that her uncle is not the brightest, but she assumes that he at least will figure out the truth after being in prison for three years, however, nothing has changed.

Sapphire the wench sees right through the Jin's family from the start. Three years ago, Allen and Jenny's father were arrested. Her father was released while awaiting trial, and hence he thought that her uncle was going to be sentenced with all the crimes. He even tried to go to Sapphire and to beg her to see Allen at least once. But she never showed her face, she even sent a servant over just to make snarky comments at Jenny's father.

Daniel is hired by Sapphire to do some makeup at her son's birthday party, he is the one that told Jenny about it and she will not have known otherwise.

Danny has good relationships with these noble women, before working with Jade Pictures, he works as a stylist for the banquet's host. He is skilful and talented, every woman he touches looks so gorgeous that one cannot tear their eyes away. He makes a name for himself and Jade Pictures then scouts him and promises him a high salary.

Jenny takes a cab from the jetty to get home, she ponders for a very long time, and finally decides to call Daniel, "Hey Daniel, didn't you mention that you are going to be the stylist for the madame at HY Group this Saturday?

"Yeah, why? You need me to do some styling for you? I'll see if I can turn them down just for you honey."

"No, that's not it. I want you to bring me along."

"Why? What for?"

"Don't ask, just tell me if you can help me out or not."

"Well, I have a team to bring along, nobody will know if there's an extra person. But are you sure you want to come with me?"

"Yes, I'm going, " Jenny frowns as she stares at the night landscape showing through the window. Her expression listless, her heart thumping like a drummer beating a drum.

A lot has changed in three years, she must let her uncle see the true face of this woman.

Why did she choose to hang out with her unaccomplished uncle three years ago, even though she was already engaged to the successor of the HY Group? Did she like him because he was wild? But she completely played him for a fool, he got in jail and she was living her life comfortably counting her money.

Jenny's chest tightens up just thinking about it.

In a penthouse at CH Hotel, a woman with an hourglass figure stands in front of the French window, she is distinguished and graceful. She struts towards the sofa and sits down after receiving a phone call, she signals the servant who is preparing some tea to leave the room. She frowns upon listening to the phone.

"What did you say?"

"Is your ear going bad? I'll just send you the information to your phone, have a look at it. I even looked into three generations of the family, we have to be cautious about this girl, Jenny. She was alone for the past few years and didn't have a smooth life, and according to what I found out she also had some relationship with some Hong Kong tycoons, you better be more careful."

"Fine, fine, I'll be aware."

"Okay, don't get too angry, control your temper. That woman is now pregnant, no? Worst comes to worst we can keep the child and give some money to the woman and ask her to leave."

"It won't be that easy, " the woman scowls and sighs deeply, "Alright, that's all for now, I'll talk to you again when I'm back in Beijing."

"No need, I'll be in Xicheng in two days for my child's friend's birthday party. We can meet up then."

Tracy reads through the information she receives carefully after the phone call ends, her expression darkens.

The screen is filled with details of the information she asks for, it is so detailed that it hurts her head just from seeing it.

She can tell from the start that Jenny has some unusual family background, but she never has thought that it is this bizarre.

Her father went to jail from bribery and died due to an accident in prison, her mom was a druggie and committed suicide, her uncle still in prison. Everybody has a past in this family, it's crazy. Does Luke really want to spend the rest of his life with this woman?

She will not let it happen.
