Obsessed With Her Novel by Master Momo (Chapters 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80) 

Chapter 71

Whitney glanced at them, but no one stood out.

Were they really her friends?

She was defending them, but none of them stood forward to defend her.

At that moment, Whitney’s heart went cold.

Seeing how indifferent they looked, Whitney felt a surge of hatred-not for them, but for Jessica.

Would Edith and the rest have treated her like this if she had still been the first miss of the Larsons?!

At the end of the day, it was all because her status had changed. She’d gone from a Larsons Miss to an adopted daughter.

That was why they dared to treat her like that.

It made all the difference.

And it was all because of Jessica.

This was all her fault.

While Whitney was still deliberating over her choices, Zayne quietly put on the tortoise shell and ran towards the track. Daisy glanced at Whitney coldly, and then followed.

Seeing that two people had gone, Caleb went ahead too and caught up with them.

Claudia was actually disappointed in Whitney.

It seemed like she’d forgotten that they’d made the deal with Jessica all because of her.

If it weren’t for her, they would not have found trouble with Jessica and ended up in this state today.

They could do this much for their friend.

But look at her.

She wasn’t doing anything for them.

She wasn’t really treating them as friends.

Claudia picked up the tortoise shell and left in disappointment.

Edith was dragged away by Xenia, and now Whitney was left standing there alone awkwardly.

The students were giving Whitney a cold eye.

When she saw Claudia’s look before she left, she already got anxious.

Whitney bit her lip, picked up a shell, and followed them.

She had to explain things. She couldn’t let them misunderstand her.

Nine turtle shells were going around the track in St. Daniel College. There were many spectators around who were recording it with their cell phones.

“What a nice view.” Jessica watched them run and focused on Whitney.

Whitney used to be a goddess at St. Daniel College. She was the girl everyone loved and admired. She was the gentle and kind lover in every guy’s dreams.

But now, she was going to skin her bit by bit.

“Ah! This is bad. I used to fantasize about being as high and mighty as Whitney, but now that I see this tortoise shell around her, I can’t picture that anymore.”

“Her image is ruined!”

Jessica smiled as she heard these comments.

This was just the start of her destruction.

Samantha was happily snapping photos. When she turned around, she was shocked to see that the smile on Jessica’s face was sly and evil.

When she looked again, she realized that her smile was normal.

She must’ve seen it wrongly. How could she be looking sly and evil?

She must’ve watched too many villain and horror shows.

Whitney caught up with Claudia and the rest. “Claudia, are you angry with me? Actually, I was planning to agree to it. I didn’t expect Zayne to get to it so quickly. I really planned to do it all on my own.”

Claudia smiled. “I understand, I’m not angry.”

Despite saying that, it was apparent that her tone was a little distant.

Chapter 72

And this happened to be heard by Zayne.

Zayne really hadn’t expected her to say this.

He’d stepped forward because he didn’t want to make things difficult for her.

Who would’ve known that she’d see it as a burden?

At this point, Zayne was getting upset with her.

Zayne ran past them without even glancing at her. Whitney was shocked when she saw Zayne run past her. Did he hear what she said?!

Claudia glanced at Whitney and smiled mockingly. She sped up and left Whitney far behind.

Edith was a little muddle-headed, but she wasn’t a fool.

She could tell that Claudia, Zayne, and a few of them weren’t too happy. However, she didn’t know why they were angry with Whitney. Shouldn’t they be angry with Jessica?

Xenia was speeding up with Edith when she heard Edith say, “Let’s go slower, Whitney can’t keep up.”

Xenia was speechless. She left on her own.

Edith watched as her good friend left her behind. She wasn’ t sure what to do.

Had she said something wrong?

Whitney caught up with her and looked at her with gratitude. “Edith, they’ve all misunderstood me, what should I do? Jess has only been here for a few days, and she’s made everyone turn against me. I just…”

Seeing that she was about to cry, Edith hurriedly comforted, “Don’t cry. Claudia and the rest have fallen into Jessica’s trap. We’ll explain to them later, they’ll understand.”

Whitney grabbed her hand. “Edith, you’ll always be on my side, right? You’ll always believe me?”

“Of course, you’re my good friend. I’ll surely believe you. I won’t fall into Jessica’s trap,” Edith promised.

Whitney seemed so touched. “Edith.”

When Daisy passed by them, she didn’t know how to react to Edith’s low IQ.

She was such an idiot!

Although Jessica wasn’t so simple, Whitney surely wasn’t innocent, either. She could tell right away that Whitney hadn’t planned on bearing it for them at all.

If she had stepped forward, they wouldn’t have watched her embarrass herself, but what a pity that she disappointed them.

They were willing to do so much for her, but she was so heartless.

Daisy felt that she simply couldn’t afford to have friends like that.

Just as Whitney was about to be turned away by everyone, Ryan and Yves suddenly appeared. Everyone’s focus was shifted to them.

Ryan was the chairman of the Student Union, while Yves was the vice-chairman.

And they both happened to like Whitney.

Seeing how pathetic Whitney looked on the track, Ryan frowned.

“Stop running!”

Whitney and the rest stopped right away.

Samantha wasn’t happy with where this was going. “Ryan, who are you to tell them to stop running? You’re the chairman of the Student Union, but that doesn’t mean everyone has to listen to you. Since they lost the bet, they have to do as promised.”

Ryan ignored Samantha and walked to Jessica. “I heard about what happened between you. They’ve already received their punishment. This should come to an end now. Be more forgiving.”

Jessica chuckled, and her chuckle sounded oddly cold and scary.

Chapter 73

Be more forgiving!

Had Whitney been forgiving and nice to her when she bullied her in her past life!?

What double standards!

He looked so gentlemanly, but he was so low. Gross!

Ryan frowned. “What are you laughing at?”

What was so funny!?

“If I remember correctly, you’re the chairman of the Student Union, not the emperor. Or are you the emperor of St. Daniel College, and all of us peasants have to listen to you?”

The crowd started laughing.

Ryan was taken aback.

He’d never been embarrassed like this before.

His expression tightened.

Jessica ignored him, and said to Whitney and the rest, “It’s not 50 rounds yet, don’t stop.”

Whitney was panting as she thoughtfully said to Ryan, “I’m fine. Don’t worry about me.”

Ryan’s gaze resting on her was exceptionally gentle. “Take the thing on your back off.”

“You don’t have to bother about it.”

Yves stepped forward first, and helped to take the shell off Whitney.

Whitney went red as she sweetly said, “Thank you, Yves.”

This made all the girls around envious and jealous of Whitney.

Samantha couldn’t stand this sort of people. She coldly added, “Don’t get lazy, hurry and run. I’ve been helping you keep track. You have 42 more rounds to go.”

Whitney clenched her jaw, and was about to start running again.

She put the shell before her. “Wear it.”

Yves’s expression went cold. “Jessica, don’t you go too far. She’s your sister. If you don’t want to make things ugly for everyone, you’d better stop now.”

“Who are you? Do I know you?”

What an extra!

Whitney held Yves’s arm gently. “Yves, it’s alright. Don’t get angry with Jess, she’s still young.”

Yves looked at Whitney, who was gentle, kind, and understanding. He then turned towards Jessica, who was uncultured and rude. The aversion he felt to her built up.

“You have a lot of time to flirt later. Don’t you see that the rest of them are doing what they have to, while you’re the only one dawdling?” Samantha couldn’t resist adding some input.

Zayne hadn’t stopped running at all. Although he was a little slower than before, he was still pushing hard. Meanwhile, Daisy and the other girls were alternating between running and walking.

Only Whitney was having her own sweet time.

Daisy looked at how tenderly Ryan was wiping Whitney’s forehead, and jealousy flashed in her eyes.

50 rounds were too much for them. Of the nine of them, only Zayne completed it. The rest of them had crumbled to the ground and weren’t getting up.

Jessica did not push them further. What she really wanted wasn’t the completion of 50 rounds, but to embarrass Whitney.

Now that she’d achieved her goal, she couldn’t care less about how many rounds they completed.

Daisy played the piano in frustration in the piano room. The scene of Whitney and Ryan being intimate couldn’t stop replaying in her head. Her tunes got more hurried and shrill.

Suddenly, someone came over and slammed the keys.

Daisy looked up in shock.

“From your tune, I can hear the hatred and jealousy you bear towards a certain someone,” Jessica said quietly.

Chapter 74

“Crazy!” Daisy stood up, and was about to walk away.

Jessica leaned on the piano. Supporting herself with her hands, she looked at the figure that was leaving, and calmly said, “You like Ryan.”

Daisy immediately paused in her footsteps, turned around, and replied, “I don’t know what you are talking about.”

“There’s nothing wrong with liking someone. Why don’t you dare to admit it? Is it because Ryan likes Whitney, so you are afraid to express it?”

These words hurt Daisy like a knife. Her expression was no longer calm.

“I don’t like Ryan. This is none of your business.”

“I don’t mean any harm. In fact, I’m here to ask for your cooperation.”

Cooperation?!

Daisy did not trust her.

“You can forget about it if you want to threaten me with this.”

“There’s no rush, let me finish.” Jessica sat on the chair and turned around. “Why does Ryan like Whitney? It is because, to Ryan, Whitney is as perfect as a goddess.

“I am sure you know better than me about how the guys in the school rate her. If you want to get Ryan from Whitney’s hands, the best way is to destroy Whitney’s perfect image.”

Although Daisy was still putting up an arrogant front, her actions were the complete opposite.

She was tempted.

Daisy walked back and sat opposite her. “You’re using me.’ “This is mutually beneficial. Besides, we have a common goal, right?”

Daisy did not have a good end in her past life. Because of Ryan, she secretly attacked Whitney multiple times, but her attempts all failed.

After an incident, Daisy was bullied very badly by Whitney’s suitors.

To preserve their business, Lan Family cut their ties with Daisy. Daisy could not handle it, went crazy, and was sent to a mental hospital.

“What do you want me to do?” Daisy asked vigilantly.

“Regarding the bet, only one of the things was fulfilled. There is still something else.”

Daisy immediately understood what she had to do. “You want her to clean the toilet alone.”

Jessica nodded.

It was nice to talk to smart people as she did not have to spell everything out clearly.

“She desperately wants to repair the friendship with you, so this is an excellent opportunity. However, you’re acting on your own. It’s up to you if you want others to do it.”

Jessica’s fingers rested on the keyboard, and music started playing. Daisy looked at her in amusement, and did not believe that she could play the piano.

Melodious piano music spread out in the corridors and echoed through the piano room.

A door at the end of the corridor opened, and several tall young men walked out. The man leading the group wore a cap, mask, and sunglasses. Even though his face was covered, they could tell he was handsome. If the mask was taken off, he would be even more handsome.

Jack stopped and his eyes under his sunglasses lit up. He listened to the music peacefully.

The manager, Matthew, saw that he stopped, and asked, ” What is it?”

Matthew was worried about being seen by others. If the news of Jack being here spread, they might not be able to leave today.

If it were not for Jack’s insistence on meeting the piano master, he would never have allowed him to come to a place like this school.

Chapter 75

There was nobody here, and it was time to leave. It would be bad if someone noticed Jack here.

“Listen.” This pure timber carried a unique personal touch. It was very charming.

Wasn’t it just the sound of the piano!

Matthew did not want to listen at all.

Jack didn’t reply, and walked in the direction the music came from. He stood outside the door.

Seeing him wanting to open the door, Matthew stopped him and nervously said, “Jack, what are you doing? There’s someone inside.”

Jack’s dark, black eyes looked at him sternly. He did not have to speak for Matthew to understand what he meant. “Do you want to find out who’s playing the piano?”

Jack looked at him with the same expression.

Matthew was dumbfounded and felt looked down upon.

“Contact this person. She will play the last piece in the concert.”

Jack looked through the small glass window and spotted two slender figures in the room. His gaze settled on the girl playing the piano.

“Okay, okay.”

Jack walked away with his long legs and Matthew stumbled behind, following him. As long as she was from St. Daniel College, she would be easy to locate.

It was more important to safely escort Jack off now.

Jack came and left quickly.

He was extremely low-key and did not attract anyone’s attention. No one knew that the superstar Jack visited St. Daniel College.

After Jack’s car left, Matthew contacted the dean of the music department and got the contact information of the student playing the piano.

At the same time, Daisy and Jessica came out of the classroom. She received a call from an unknown person and subconsciously rejected the call.

After a while, she received the call again.

Daisy irritatedly answered the phone. “Who is this?”

“Are you Student Daisy? I am Matthew, Jack’s manager.” Daisy immediately hung up the call, and said to Jessica,” Aren’t scammers funny? He said that he was Jack’s manager. He might as well have said that he was the emperor’s manager. What a joke.”

Jack… This name was familiar.

Seeing Jessica’s expression, Daisy frowned, and asked, ” Don’t tell me you don’t know who Jack is?”

Daisy looked at her as if she was a caveman. Jessica matched her gaze, and replied, “I’ve heard of him, but I’m not familiar.”

Daisy rolled her eyes but didn’t expose her.

Matthew’s call was rejected by her multiple times. If it had been somebody else, he would have long ignored it. However, this was an order from Jack, and he had to complete this task.

He continued calling in disbelief.

Daisy wanted to reject the call, but Jessica faintly said, ” You never know, it might be real.”

Daisy finally accepted the call.

“Student Daisy. Please don’t hang up the call and listen to what I have to say. I really am Jack’s manager. Jack wants to hold a concert again, but is missing a talented pianist like you. He is inviting you to participate in the concert. If you don’t trust me, I can get Jack to speak to you personally as he’s beside me now,” Matthew said in a breath as he was afraid she might hang up the call once again.

Hearing this, Daisy believed him slightly. “I want to talk to Jack.”

Matthew passed the phone to Jack.

Jack gave him a cold look as his eyes were filled with contempt, signaling that he could not do his job well.

Chapter 76

Jack took over the phone, and Daisy heard his soothing voice.

“Hi, I’m Jack, the person who was on the phone with you is my manager.”

Daisy was shocked when she heard his voice, and she stood there dumbfounded.

She couldn’t get a hold of herself even after the call was over.

Jessica saw that Daisy was behaving as though someone cast a spell on her. She then gave her a gentle push, and said, “Hey, are you alright?”

The next thing you knew, Daisy grabbed Jessica’s hands and exclaimed, “Jack invited me to be his pianist. Jack invited me to be his pianist. Jack…”

“Stop!” Jessica immediately shouted in an attempt to stop Daisy’s chants. “I understand that he invited you. Calm down.”

“Calm down?! How could I?! That’s Jack. That Jack!”

Jessica watched calmly as Daisy lost her mind over what had happened.

She could not understand why Daisy was behaving this way.

Daisy noticed how calm Jessica was, and calmed herself down. She then lamented, “You have no idea how good looking he is. You would never understand what I’m feeling right now.

“Let me show you how handsome he is.”

Daisy had chosen to look over the fact that they were never really friends. She was only concerned about showing Jessica how handsome and charming her idol was.

“Jack, do you have any idea who he is? He’s the first person from our country to ever receive a Grammy Award. He is also the top actor internationally.

“He also has the voice of an angel. You will love it when you hear him. He’s a really good actor as well. One of the best worldwide.

“Furthermore, he’s an artist as well. One of his works ‘The sky we defend’ won the gold award in the International Youth Competition. It was subsequently sold for 30,000, 000 dollars. If his passion hadn’t lain in acting, he would have been a world-famous artist by now. Oh wait, he is already a world-famous artist.”

Jessica was trying to get away from the conversation, but Daisy wouldn’t let her go.

“I see, I understand it already, so could you please let go of me?”

Daisy saw the nonchalant look on her face, and loosened her grip on Jessica. She then angrily exclaimed, “You’re a horrible person.”

Jessica was utterly speechless!

***

When she got back to the building, she saw that everyone was excited.

“Ah! Is it true? Is Jack coming to Hanson City for a concert?”

“I must have the VIP tickets.”

“Who’s in charge of the concert?”

“I believe it should be Josephine’s dad.”

“Damn, I’m going to ask her for the tickets. I’m not going to fight against everyone for it.”

Everyone was crowding around Josephine in the classroom. Each one of them was asking her for the tickets and trying to get on her good side.

Josephine had never felt this way before.

When she saw Jessica, she intentionally blocked her path, and said, “If you want tickets to Jack’s concert, I can make it a reality for you, but you must apologize to me in front of everyone. Quite a good deal, eh?”

Jessica was speechless.

Chapter 77

Jessica couldn’t bear to humiliate her once again. She pushed her away and walked past her.

“You should see the doctor about your delusions.”

Josephine’s face flushed in anger, and she glared at her.

“Josephine, you shouldn’t care about her. I want the VIP seats. You can quote any price you want.”

“That’s right, you shouldn’t be concerned with people like her. I bet she will regret her decision immediately.” Josephine started to calm down after being coaxed by everyone.

Jessica started to revise her schoolwork the moment she got back to her seat, while everyone was discussing the concert.

Xander was surprised at her behavior.

In his impression, every girl would start fangirling when Jack was mentioned. This was the first time that he encountered a girl who didn’t react this way.

Suddenly, a guy ran into the classroom, and shouted, “Huge news, Whitney is cleaning the washroom. She’s cleaning the girls’ washroom on the second floor.”

Everyone around Josephine left and headed towards the second floor.

Jessica slowly put down her textbook, and she followed everyone else. When she arrived at the washroom, it was already crowded.

Whitney was wearing a mask and holding a scrub in the bathroom. She was holding up a pail as she tried to splash water in the toilet. However, it was too heavy for her, and the water landed on her instead.

Edith felt a sense of pity for her, and said, “It’s enough. Whitney has shown us her sincerity.”

Claudia and Xenia kept silent. Melissa said, “She has already agreed, so she must do it.”

Whitney smiled at Edith, and said, “It’s alright, I can do it.”

Xenia felt a sense of pity for Whitney as she saw Whitney cleaning each cubicle. Meanwhile, the other students were discussing this sight.

Ryan and Yves also arrived.

Daisy heard that Ryan had arrived. As she saw that Whitney was trying to stage a show, she remembered what Jessica had said.

She noticed a bottle of soap in the corner of her eye and stealthily walked next to it. Then, she opened the bottle while no one was looking.

When Ryan and Yves came and attracted everyone’s attention, she threw the opened bottle near Whitney.

“Whitney.”

When Whitney heard Ryan, she stood up in joy. However, as she walked to him, she slipped on the soap and fell. No one reacted in time to help her.

Bam…

A loud sound emerged as the pail landed on the floor. Whitney had fallen face down onto the toilet.

No one should have seen this as the door was initially closed, but as Ryan and Yves entered the bathroom, everyone saw what happened.

Everyone was shocked. No one had imagined that Whitney would be in this position.

Everyone in the bathroom was shocked too. Ryan and Yves were so shocked that they forgot to help her.

“It stinks,” Daisy complained, and everyone heard what she said.

Chapter 78

Ryan finally realized what had happened, and wanted to help her, but he stopped in his tracks when he heard what Daisy said.

Whitney noticed that he stopped in his tracks and her face flushed. As she heard the laughter from outside the washroom, she hoped that she could become invisible. Suddenly, a cold voice appeared from the crowd.

“Are you having lunch?”

Initially, no one caught onto the joke, but when they saw Whitney holding the toilet bowl while looking down into it… They understood the joke.

“Hahaha!”

The laughter filled the hallway. The people at the back of the crowd didn’t know what was going on, but when they saw the video and heard the explanation from the people at the front of the crowd, they started laughing as well.

Daisy looked at Jessica respectfully. She destroyed Whitney’s image with a sentence.

Even Yves who liked Whitney was frowning.

Whitney was waiting for her two prince charming to rescue her, but even though they were there, they didn’t help her.

When Whitney saw the people laughing at her and heard the laughter grow louder, she fainted.

Edith glared at Jessica before rushing to help her.

Xenia and friends rushed to help Whitney as well. They immediately brought her to the infirmary.

The Larsons.

When Jessica reached home, she could feel a strong sense of animosity.

“Jessica, stop right there!” Julianna screamed as she glared at Jessica angrily. “How could you do it??”

“What did I do?”

When Julianna saw her puzzled face, it angered her even more.

How could she be like this?

Why couldn’t she be more like Whitney?

Julianna massaged her forehead as she felt a sense of weakness. Her body began to sway as though she could faint at any time.

Mrs. Willow immediately rushed up to hold her. Suddenly, a car arrived at the door, and a slender figure emerged from it. He was a handsome man, and he immediately went into the house with an agitated expression.

“Sir, welcome home,” Mrs. Willow greeted happily.

When Julianna saw Zachary, she fainted in Mrs. Willow’s arms.

Zachary noticed Jessica and was shocked.

Even though her parents weren’t good-looking, she was really beautiful. She was going to be a pretty lady in a couple of years.

Zachary looked away as he walked quickly towards Julianna.

“What’s the matter?” Zachary asked.

Even though she wasn’t his biological mother, he treated her as though she was one as she took really good care of him.

Mrs. Willow didn’t dare to answer, but she looked at Jessica.

Zachary took a look at the unconscious Julianna. He then looked at Jessica and frowned.

“Send Mom to the bedroom and get Doctor Hu to examine her,” Zachary said calmly.

“Yes.”

The servants immediately followed his instructions.

After settling Julianna down, Zachary emerged from the master bedroom and saw that Jessica was about to enter her room. He immediately approached her.

Zachary was furious, and he held the handle to prevent her from closing the door.

“You’re staying in this room?” he spat out angrily.

Chapter 79

Jessica loosened her hands and sat on the sofa looking at him with her clear eyes.

Seeing that she was sitting on the sofa which he’d specially made for Whitney, he smirked, and said, “This is Whitney’s room. Isn’t it overbearing to take her room once you are back?”

“Overbearing?” Jessica laughed. “Was she very kind to have stolen a decade of my life?”

Zachary knew that she had resentment toward Whitney, but it was not a reason to snatch things that belonged to others.

He did not want to fight back, and his gaze settled on the sofa she was sitting on. “Stand up. This is a sofa I gave to Whitney, not you. If you want one, I can buy another one for you.”

“Yours? Are you sure?”

Zachary thought that her question was ridiculous. “Of course.”

“Then can I ask, is your biological father rich?”

Zachary frowned.

“Let me ask another question. Do you have a job? Do you have any income?”

Zachary’s eyes sunk, and he stared at her in displeasure. Jessica looked him up and down carefully. “Everything you are eating, drinking, using, and wearing is paid for using my father’s money. You are spending the Larsons’ money, but here you are showing off to the Larsons’ only daughter. Do you still have a conscience? Or are you just an ungrateful person with no morals?”

Zachary was an orphan adopted by Mr. Larson and Mrs. Larson. The only person with blood relations to them was Jessica.

However, the outcome of her past life was that they lived peacefully and happily together even though they were not related by blood. In turn, Jessica was exchanged and sacrificed for their own benefit.

Why did it become like this?

Was she not obedient enough in her past life?

Or was she not talented enough?

Perhaps it was because they did not have any familial affection despite their blood relation, so they could easily give her up and sacrifice her.

That affection was definitely more important than their kinship.

“The things that you bought using the Larsons’ money belong to the Larsons. Whatever belongs to Larsons belongs to me too. So, this sofa and this room are mine.” Zachary laughed angrily at her shameless remarks. He did not expect his parent’s biological daughter to be such a person.

“I personally designed this sofa, so this should be mine, right?”

“Are you sure you designed this sofa?” Jessica looked at him in amusement.

Zachary was convinced by her expression, and pleasantly replied, “Of course.”

“Wow. I never knew that someone could plagiarize to such a grandiose extent.” Jessica sat upright with her hand supporting her chin. “This sofa was clearly designed by Master Amir, and was launched last year. If I’m not. mistaken, you copied Master Amir’s design and added your own lines on the top.

“When I first saw this sofa, I was wondering why Master Amir’s standards had dropped and such cumbersome lines were added at the back.

“I finally understand now. What a pity. This sofa was originally worth millions, but with the addition of the lines, the price has dropped to tens of thousands. How disappointing.”

Zachary’s face turned red as he was exposed. He was ashamed and angry.

Chapter 80

In her previous life, someone exposed the truth that the sofa was plagiarized from Master Amir. Hence, to protect Zachary’s prestige, Jessica was made to say that she had been the one who designed it.

Everyone in the upper echelons of society knew what really went on, but not the netizens.

Whitney posted the incident online, and caused Jessica to be cyberbullied. During that period, there were people harassing and stalking her. Someone even threw acid at her. Fortunately, she managed to dodge it, or it would have ended badly.

The Larsons had never helped her throughout these incidents. They had even blamed her for staining the reputation of the family.

Had they not considered who was the one truly responsible? Was it her?

Was she the one who did the copying?

Was she truly the one that stained the family’s reputation?

Truth be told, James and Julianna never cared about her. Hence, they were fine with asking her to bear the blame like that.

“Don’t worry, I’ll help you to keep it a secret. If it is exposed, it will tarnish my reputation as well. I don’t want the Larson Group to be affected because of you,” Jessica said as she looked away from the door.

James was standing at the door, and witnessed the exchange between them.

James smiled and entered the room. He said, “Seems like there isn’t a need for me to introduce you two to each other. Zachary, do take care of Jess in the future. She has gone through a lot. You must take care of her as her older brother.”

Zachary saw that his father was only concerned about Jessica while neglecting his own sister, Whitney. This infuriated him.

It had to have been tough for her to handle such biased parents during this period.

Zachary scoffed. “She’s so capable already, is there really a need for me to take care of her? I’ll go check on Whitney.” James was upset, but his expression quickly recovered. He then said, “Jess, just ignore what he said.”

“Zachary has such a good relationship with Whitney. You might even think that they are a couple,” Jessica said. “Nonsense.” James snapped and glared at her.

She would let everyone find out if what she said was nonsense in the future.

During dinnertime, the table was full of Zachary’s favorite dishes. Whitney and he made fun of each other as they ate, which entertained their parents.

However, Jessica was excluded from the joyful atmosphere.

She just looked coldly at the four of them as she ate her food. It was as though she was not a part of the family. Mrs. Willow saw it and felt a sense of pity for Jessica. “This is a gift for you,” Zachary said as he took out a ticket. Whitney saw that it was the ticket to Jack’s concert and was elated. She then asked, “Zachary, how did you get this ticket?”

James asked, “What about Jess’s?”

Zachary looked at Jessica, and said, “I’m sorry, Jess, I’ve made a promise to Whitney that I would get one for her previously. Let me check with my friend if he can spare another ticket.”

It was obvious that he wasn’t keen on helping her.

Jessica smiled to herself as she just received a text from Samantha that she had two VVIP tickets available.
