Obsessed With Her Novel by Master Momo (Chapters 411, 412, 413, 414, 415, 416, 417, 418, 419, 420)

Chapter 411

Ruby replied, “I’m not sure.”

“Jessica mentioned that she’s an orphan, but take a good look at her. Even the rich kids from our university never

have their lunch delivered to them personally.”

Hearing that, Ruby smiled and did not reply.

Madelyn noticed that she was uninterested, so she kept her mouth shut afterward.

Jessica examined the food, and all of them were nutritious.

As soon as she noticed there were beans in her meal box, Samantha’s expression darkened.

Jessica saw her expression and quickly asked, “What’s wrong?”

Samantha kept quiet.

There were beans in her meal box, even though she disliked beans.

For that reason, it could only mean that her father was not the one who delivered the food. Or worse, her father did not know her food preference.

Thinking about it, Samantha was heartbroken.

“I hate beans.”

Immediately, Jessica understood what she meant.

“Maybe they made a mistake. The one they gave me should be yours.”

In response, Samantha smiled bitterly. “You don’t have to comfort me. I should’ve known he wouldn’t care about me at all. Ever since we came back, he never called me. He didn’t even come to see me once. There’s no way he’ll send me lunch.”

Samantha’s voice gradually became softer, and she remained silent at the end.

Jessica felt sympathy for her. She was in the same boat as her in her previous life.

The more one cared, the easier it was to get hurt.

At that moment, any further words were pointless.

Jessica held her hands tightly.

When Samantha lifted her head to look at Jessica and saw the latter had a bitter smile on her face, she replied, “I don’t need your sympathy.”

“I know.”

Then Samantha pretended as if nothing happened.

Ruby and Madelyn did not sense anything unusual about Samantha when they came back.

On the way back to the dorm, Jessica took out her phone and sent a message to Hugh.

Hugh, who was staying at Marsingfill, read the message the instant he received it.

Jessica: You don’t have to deliver the lunch anymore.

He stared at the short message in astonishment.

Obviously, he knew all the words, but he could not understand the meaning behind them.

Lunch? What lunch? Did Jack do something stupid again?

That was the first thought that crossed his mind.

Hugh: l didn’t deliver any lunch.

After reading the reply, Jessica froze and had a puzzled look on her face.

If it’s not Hugh, who was it? Could it be Jack?

Shortly afterward, she forwarded the same message to Jack.

Jack had just finished shooting for an advertisement. During the break, he read the message he received earlier and was infuriated.

Hugh: Don’t do anything stupid again. There’s no need to deliver the lunch anymore!

Lunch? What lunch?

Just as he wanted to reply to Hugh, he received another message.

When he saw that the sender of the message was Jessica, a huge smile appeared on his face. However, when he read the message, his smile froze in place.

Jessica: You don’t have to deliver the lunch anymore.

What the heck?! Which bastard dared to frame me?

Jack’s expression darkened.

At that moment, Benny went forward cautiously and reminded him, “Mr. Ferguson, please get ready for the next shoot.”

“Not now. I need to do something else.”

All the staff noticed the grim expression on his face. Hence, no one dared to urge him.

After thorough consideration, Jack typed a very long message to Jessica.

Jessica was confused by the long message when she read it.

Chapter 412

Jack: My dear sister, I have no idea which bastard used my name to cause trouble. I’m sure that person is an idiot, so please forgive his foolish behavior. I will definitely make him suffer when I find out who he is. And please don’t worry. I will investigate everything clearly and force him to stop his foolish behavior.

Jessica was completely baffled after reading the message.

Since Jack and Hugh both clarified that they did not do it, she thought it might be Sebastian, but she removed the possibility afterward.

Although she was not familiar with Sebastian, she had a feeling that he was not the one.

Needless to say, the chance of Charles being that person was even lower, as he would never put beans in

Samantha’s meal box.

Who could it be?

Suddenly, a person came into her mind.

Could it be her? Could it be Mom?

If it was really her, then she could never reject her, as she could never reject a mother who missed her daughter dearly.

Next, she sent a message to Jack.

Jessica: Never mind. Keep sending them.

After reading the message, Jack was dumbfounded.

Meanwhile, a secretary opened a door that was heavily guarded.

“Mr. Ferguson, Ms. Jessica’s lunch has been delivered.”

“Did she mention anything?” Aaron raised his head.

“She didn’t mention anything.”

The fact that Jessica accepted the meal without rejecting it reassured him.

“Make sure to include everything she likes and don’t forget the nutrition. You should also greet Mr. Zamora and ask him to take good care of her.” He gave the order because he knew that she did not like to be disturbed by them.

Although they lived in the same city and were supposed to be the closest person to each other, they had to distance themselves from her. It was the greatest pain in their lives.

The next moment, he changed his mind. “Never mind, I’ll tell him myself.”

He waved his hand, and the secretary left the files behind and left.

Ever since that night, Faith had kept her distance from the rest of her roommates. Not only that, but she also kept a low profile in the lecture hall.

昌

That day, when Jessica returned to her room, she noticed that Faith was there.

“I brought some dinner for you guys.” Jessica put the food on the table.

It was rare that Madelyn, who never rejected any food, did not move.

“I’m on a diet.”

Then Jessica turned her gaze toward Ruby.

Ruby hesitated for a moment and said, “I’m not hungry yet.”

Later, Jessica looked at Faith, her eyes slightly squinted.

Without saying anything, she left the room and went next door with the dinner. Her hands were empty when she returned.

The next morning, Madelyn and Ruby left the dorm hurriedly and left Jessica behind.

When they entered the lecture hall, they chose to sit with others instead of in their usual spot.

Jessica was not bothered by it and sat in her usual spot.

Suddenly, someone sat beside her.

When she looked at him, he swiftly gave her a bright smile and asked, “Is this seat taken?”

“No.”

The scene of them sitting together caused an uproar in the lecture hall instantly.

“What? Why are they sitting together?”

“They are indeed a match made in heaven,” exclaimed one of them.

“Are they in a relationship?”

“It’s possible! If I’m not mistaken, Zoltan never sits beside a woman.”

Faith, who sat in the front row, glanced at Zoltan. When she noticed that Zoltan was chatting happily with Jessica, she squinted her eyes.

田

Chapter 413

A poor person with another poor person! They really are a perfect match!

The bell rang. Jessica and Zoltan walked out of the lecture hall and ran into Ruby. The moment they saw her, she immediately quickened her pace and walked away.

“Did you have a fight with her?” Zoltan asked.

The three of them used to be inseparable. Even a fool could see that something was not right when Ruby walked away from them. However, Jessica genuinely did not care. In order to be friends, one must have good intentions. The amount of time they spent together did not matter.

As soon as Jessica and Zoltan walked out of the building, they discovered that the noticeboard by the door was covered with photos of Jessica.

At that moment, someone spotted her when she appeared in front of the noticeboard.

“It’s her! She’s that girl!”

“It’s really her!”

“Although the photos are quite old, you can still see that it’s clearly her! I can’t believe she’s an orphan, and she even went through the trash!”

“You can tell by looking at these photos that she had a miserable life in the past. She’s so glamorous now. You can’t even tell.”

“An orphan? I heard that she’s the daughter of a certain prominent family.”

“I’ve heard the same thing: Apparently, she’s a VIP of Seasky Hotel and there would be people sending her lunch every day.”

“It’s all a lie?”

“I think it’s definitely the case.”

“How could an orphan become so wealthy? Something’s fishy here.”

“Fishy? She’s probably the mistress of a very wealthy man. It’s pretty common nowadays.”

Jessica heard the comments of the crowd around her.

Zoltan did not back away. Instead, he gave Jessica a worried look and said, “Just ignore them.”

Jessica looked at him with a blank expression.

Please, like I care.

Jessica glanced at the crowd and saw that Faith was standing a short distance away from her. Her lips curled into a slight smile.

Faith was stunned when she saw Jessica smiling at her.

She felt a chill running down her spine.

Zoltan walked toward the crowd and said, “All of you should not follow the herd and jump to conclusions. Y’all should be responsible for your own words!”

“Oh? Who are you? We didn’t say anything about you. It’s none of your business!”

“Isn’t he the cute guy from the design faculty? I heard he has a crush on Jessica.”

“No wonder you’re so upset.”

“A word of advice, when you pick a girlfriend, you shouldn’t go for the looks alone. You have to find out what kind of person she is and whether she is decent or not. Otherwise, you might end up with a loose woman, and that won’t be good for you.”

The girl laughed when she said those words. Suddenly, someone yanked her ponytail with brute force.

“Who is it?” She turned her head and saw a face full of anger.

“It’s me!” Samantha said domineeringly.

“Let go!” the girl screamed as she grabbed her hair.

Samantha released her hair and said, “I’ve always wondered why your mouth is so crooked. I suppose it’s because the words you say are unbearable!”

“You…” The girl was infuriated.

Her friends immediately gathered around her when they saw what happened.

Samantha rolled up her sleeves and said, “If a fight is what

you want, I will fight you until the very end! You better not kneel on the ground and cry for mercy when I beat you into a pulp!”

Samantha really knew how to run her mouth.

“Who are you? We are talking about Jessica, and it’s none of your business!”

“She is my best friend! If you pick on her, you are picking on me too.”

“Hmph! You thought of her as a friend, but does she feel the same way about you? Can’t you see she’s just standing there? You are a fool for fighting her fight alone,” the girl mocked as she tried to stir up trouble between Samantha and Jessica.

Samantha looked at the girls, and she smirked at them. She then said, “Are you sure you want her to come at you?”

Chapter 414

Jessica watched Samantha with a helpless smile.

Sam is naughty!

The girls stared at Jessica and thought that she looked delicate and weak. Jessica was not threatening at all. On the contrary, Samantha was the one who acted like a punk in front of them. Thus, Samantha was more threatening at that moment.

“Is she really going to come at us?”

“We’ll be standing right here, waiting for her. I doubt a weakling like her would have the guts to do anything.”

“Just look at her! She’s weak, and she’s definitely the type to hide behind a guy!”

Everyone looked at Jessica. Some were curious about her, some admired her beauty, and others were jealous of her charm.

Samantha pitied the four girls in front of her.

Tsk! Tsk! You girls asked for it.

Jessica walked up to the four girls, and they stared at her with provoking eyes. Jessica asked, “Do any of you know how pigs die?”

Someone immediately reacted to her question and answered, “They die because they’re stupid!”

The people around them burst into laughter.

“A scholar once said that we shouldn’t talk with fools. If we spoke to them for too long, our IQ would be lowered. Do any of you remember who said that?” Jessica asked as she pretended to think hard.

“Who are you calling a fool?”

The girl was known to have a bad temper, so she completely lost her cool when Jessica provoked her.

The girl raised her hand, wanting to slap Jessica in the face. Samantha was about to stop her, but Jessica was one step ahead.

Jessica caught the girl’s arm, and then with a click, she dislocated the latter’s arm.

The girl screamed in pain. Cold sweat instantly formed on her forehead.

Jessica gave her a surprised look and said, “I’m sorry. I didn’t expect your arm to be so brittle! It was dislocated after I gently touched it. But it’s okay. I’ll pop it back into place.”

The girl looked at Jessica in horror and shouted, “What are you trying to do?”

“Don’t be scared. I’m just trying to fix your arm,” Jessica said with a smile on her face.

“D-Don’t…”

The girl refused, but she was in no place to decline.

I’m not giving her the chance to blackmail me.

“Don’t move!” Jessica said. “If you move around, I might pop it in the wrong spot! If that happens, you might have to get your arm removed and reconnected!”

When the girl heard what Jessica said, she immediately stopped moving.

Jessica held her arm firmly and pushed it upward. A click could be heard, and the girl screamed in pain.

Jessica gave her an apologetic look and said, “I’m sorry. I didn’t get it in the right spot, so I have to do it again.”

“Y-You… What did you say?!” the girl exclaimed.

Jessica immediately sprang into action because she did not want the girl to refuse her. The crowd heard her bones cracking, and it sent a chill down their spine.

Although the procedure was not done on their bodies, everyone could feel the pain.

Jessica let go of her arm and said, “It’s done.”

The girl tried to move her arm and was surprised she could move it without a problem. She glared at Jessica and said, “You did that on purpose, didn’t you?”

“How could you accuse me?” Jessica said and gave her an innocent look.

Samantha almost laughed out loud when she heard

Jessica talking in a sweet voice. She was completely caught off guard when the scene in front of her changed drastically.

“You…” the girl stuttered in anger when she saw Jessica’s innocent face.

Jessica turned toward the other three girls and popped her knuckles. In a sweet voice, she said, “Do you guys have any other comments?”

The three girls looked at Jessica’s hands, and then at their unfortunate friend. They shook their heads in unison and stayed quiet.

Jessica brushed her fingers lightly across their arms and said, “Good!”

Chapter 415

Jessica looked around at the busybodies with disdain and left.

As they left, everyone started gossiping.

Samantha laughed happily, ignoring the gossip. She turned to Jessica and gave her a thumbs up. “Brilliant!”

Jessica said nothing.

She simply wanted to attend classes in peace, but there would always be someone who liked to draw attention to themselves, which caused her to feel very annoyed.

When Ruby and Madelyn had avoided her, she knew something was not right. However, she didn’t expect Faith to investigate her.

The past few days were like the calm before the storm.

“Who is that immoral person who pasted those on the noticeboard? Please don’t tell me it’s that spoiled girl.”

Jessica hummed in response. It’s definitely her.

“I’m going to make her pay.” Samantha was furious. How dare she hurt my friend?

“Don’t be rash.”

It’s a waste of time to look for her without evidence.

“We need to look for evidence first.”

“I’ll check the surveillance cameras.”

“There are no surveillance cameras at the noticeboard. So

if we want to look for evidence, we need to start from them.” Jessica fixed her gaze on Madelyn and Ruby.

“Then, what are we waiting for?”

Immediately, Samantha blocked their way.

“What’s the matter?” Madelyn asked coldly.

“You were well aware of that, weren’t you?”

Madelyn and Ruby looked away.

“I don’t know what you’re saying. We’re going for lunch.” Madelyn didn’t want to say much. She grabbed Ruby and left.

Jessica took a few steps forward and stood in front of them. “I know you saw the photos on the noticeboard. You think an orphan like me doesn’t deserve those things, don’t you? Like everyone else, you think I’m a sugar baby, so you choose to avoid me. Correct me if I’m wrong.”

Ruby wanted to speak, but Madelyn stopped her.

“You know what you did. We’re not the same, so don’t talk

to us anymore,” Madelyn said in a cold tone.

“All right,” Jessica said and let them go.

“You’re just gonna let them go?” Samantha frowned.

“There are many ways to find evidence. We don’t need them.”

On the other hand, Ruby asked, “Do we have to do this? What if it’s just a misunderstanding? Jessica doesn’t look like that type of girl.”

Madelyn rolled her eyes. “Don’t fall for it. I heard that many girls become sugar babies just because they think they look good. Gosh, I hate those people.”

Upon seeing her reaction, Ruby opted to say no more.

Jessica was just about to start from the root of the cause when Faith was called into the dean’s office.

“Why do you want to see me, Sir?”

“See for yourself.” The dean threw a stack of photos on the table.

Her face turned pale when she looked at the photos.

“You broke the rules! The school has decided to give you demerits this time. If you break the rules again, you’ll be expelled.”

Chapter 416

All the evidence was so concrete that Faith couldn’t prove herself innocent.

“Write an apology statement, and paste it on the noticeboard to prove Jessica’s innocence.”

“No way.” Faith’s face stiffened. She refused to admit what she had done in public.

“Is that your response?”

“I don’t care if you want to punish me or have me expelled, but there’s no way I will apologize.”

She had never been so humiliated before.

The dean didn’t expect her to be so stubborn.

“I’m asking you one more time! Would you rather apologize or get expelled?”

“Expel me if you want.” Faith slammed the door and left.

As she walked out of the office, she quickly called her parents, crying, “Dad, I was bullied, and the school is on the bully’s side. They want to expel me.”

Faith’s father, Cody Steward, was upset to hear his daughter crying. “Don’t cry, sweetheart. I’ll get someone to take care of this. I won’t let anyone harass my daughter.”

….”Dad, expel that girl. She’s a sugar baby! I don’t want to stay with her. She makes me sick!”

“Okay, okay. I’ll find someone now. Don’t be mad,” Cody comforted.

“Promise me you’ll do it.”

“When have I ever lied to you?”

Faith heaved a sigh of relief after she hung up the phone.

Now, I just have to wait for Jessica to be expelled from school. If it was not for my high school classmates who knew Jessica, I almost fell for it.

Since the incident at the hotel, she had been afraid of Jessica until she found out that she was nothing but a sugar baby.

Faith couldn’t restrain her outrage whenever she recalled that Jessica, an orphan, had trampled on her.

She was waiting happily for her father to take action, not knowing that Cody was currently having a hard time.

“What? Eiffel Hotel withdrew the orders? Find Mr. Woods, and ask him what happened.”

Cody’s phone rang again shortly after he hung up.

“Bad news, Mr. Stewart! Someone got hurt in our bathroom and has filed a complaint to the relevant department. The authorities came over and found the defective products we kept in the warehouse.”

“Hang on! I’ll go get some men.”

The phone rang again. “Mr. Stewart, we’re in big trouble!”

Cody’s mind was abuzz with chaos at the word “big trouble”.

He knew he had messed with the wrong person.

He tried to recall who he had offended, then made a call to his acquaintance. “Tell me who’s coming up against me.”

The person on the other side sighed. If it were in the past, I would have told him beforehand. But this time, he had offended someone prestigious.

“Cody, the truth is, that person hasn’t made his move. He only asked Aidan Cox to teach you a lesson. Even Aidan has to butter up that person. What exactly did you do? How have you offended him?”

Cody paled at his question.

Chapter 417

He had been staying at home all the time. He would not have been able to offend such a big shot.

All of a sudden, Cody thought of his daughter.

Instantly, he dialed Faith’s number.

“Faith, did you mess with the wrong guy?” Cody bellowed.

Faith was startled by the sudden scolding. She replied, “Dad, are you mad at me?”

“What did you do, Faith?”

It was her first time being scolded by Cody. She was taken aback.

“I didn’t do anything.” She felt wronged for the false accusation. Tears started welling up in her eyes.

“Didn’t do anything? We almost got destroyed by other people. And now you’re telling me you did nothing?” Cody scolded furiously.

A person that even Mr. Cox has to butter up – he must have an unfathomable background.

Luckily that guy hadn’t been doing anything yet. Once he did, the Stewart family would be in demise.

Faith was stunned by his words. “Dad, I only have some issues with Jessica, no one else. She’s just an orphan, so there’s nothing to be afraid of.”

It seems Jessica is the root of the problem.

“You need to apologize to her immediately. Right now!” Cody ordered.

“No, I will not.” Instantly, she hung up the phone.

Why should I apologize to her? Why did Dad say messing with her would result in our family’s demise? That is so ridiculous!

Immediately, Cody ordered the chauffeur to head to Dellmoor after the call ended.

He arrived at the school in the evening. When he had found Faith, he dragged her into a lecture hall.

The class had just ended by that time. Many students were wandering around in the school. When they saw Cody dragging Faith, they stopped in their tracks.

Dragging Faith with his right arm, Cody approached Jessica and said, “Jessica, I am sorry. I should have taught my daughter well. I am the one at fault for her wrongdoings. Please, accept my apology.”

Upon finishing his words, he turned to Faith and ordered, “Apologize now!”

Faith was stubborn as a mule and she refused to ask for Jessica’s forgiveness.

“No, it wasn’t my fault,” Faith responded obstinately.

“Are you apologizing or not?”

Anger started to engulf Cody. He looked into his incorrigible daughter. l has pampered her too much. Now she has grown to become a spoiled brat.

Suddenly, Cody raised his leg and gave Faith a kick at her knee. Her legs became numb, and she fell into a kneel.

Cody lowered her head in front of Jessica.

Faith was dumbfounded. She only regained her senses the moment her Dad forced her to apologize by pushing her head.

Jessica was taken aback upon seeing that. It was out of her expectations.

“Mr. Stewart. There’s no need for this.”

However, his palm was still pressing hard on her head even though she was struggling in tears.

If I don’t teach her a lesson today, she will never know the severity of this situation. One day, she will ruin the Stewart family.

He intended to teach Faith a life lesson so she would remember her mistake.

The students were astonished by the commotion, and they looked at Cody in awe. Then, they glanced at Faith.

Then, Cody commanded two of his subordinates to keep Faith in her place.

“You don’t get to get up if you don’t apologize today. If you continue with this behavior, I will cut ties with you.”

Faith noticed his gloomy face. She became agitated when she heard the cold words from Cody. At that moment, she knew he was serious. Certainly, Jessica was capable of putting her family in demise.

It was time for her to put aside her pride and arrogance.

“I’m sorry, Jessica. I was jealous, so I intentionally spread those rumors. I’m deeply sorry. Please forgive me.” Tears started rolling down her cheeks, blurring her vision.

Ħ

Chapter 418

More people started to gather around them.

Jessica took a glance at the crowd, and then she said to Cody, “

There’s no need for this. Please help her up.”

“Jessica, you are indeed a kind girl. I am sorry for not teaching her properly. I should apologize to you.”

Cody shook Jessica’s hand sincerely.

Jessica was stunned by his action.

That same day, Cody left with Faith, who dropped out of the school after the incident. It caused a commotion in the design faculty.

Jessica’s name became a hot topic in the faculty following the incident.

“We haven’t started doing anything, but Faith’s dad already brought her to apologize. Could it be…” Samantha suddenly thought of the Ferguson family and the lunch they brought every day.

They have been keeping an eye on Jessica by bringing her lunch every day. Surely, they knew about this. I never thought that they would be this fast to take action. It only took a day for them to apologize.

Jessica shared the same thoughts as Samantha.

Samantha took a glance at Jessica and remained silent. Since Faith had withdrawn herself from school, her bed- space was vacant. When Ruby and Madelyn came across the news, they started to fear Jessica. But they were more curious regarding her identity.

When Jessica walked into the dorm, Madelyn was hesitant to ask her questions.

As Jessica was about to get up to get some hot water, Madelyn chuckled and said, “I have some hot water here. You can take it if you want.”

Jessica looked at her and replied, “Oh, no thanks.”

Jessica grabbed a flask and left the dorm. Madelyn’s expression fell, and she grumbled, “Who does she think she is?”

Ruby glanced at her, and she continued reading with her head lowered.

Madelyn was furious when Ruby ignored her. Then, she went to her bed and started scrolling through her social media. When she logged onto the school forum, the eye-catching title successfully garnered her attention.

The moment Jessica returned to the dorm, Madelyn uttered in excitement, “Quick, Jessica. You need to log onto the school forum right now. You’re in the contest for the campus belle. Currently, you are in the top three.”

“Oh,” Jessica answered nonchalantly. Then, she got back to her table and started flipping through her book.

Madelyn’s expression fell instantly the moment Jessica treated her coldly. She almost cursed out loud, but she did not have the guts to do that.

Faith, who was rich, did not dare to offend her. Let alone Madelyn, who came from an ordinary family.

In one of the dorm rooms of the Faculty of Finance, everyone was discussing the campus belle contest.

Suddenly, a girl pushed the door open and entered the room. The other girls approached her upon seeing her arrival. They asked, “Raegan, did you get Jack’s autograph for me?”

Raegan looked upset and said, “Speaking of that, the fan site moderator gave me the wrong information, and I just wasted my time for nothing. Luckily I went earlier and got the best seat.”

Raegan was Jack’s top fan. She was popular and had a good reputation in Jack’s fan support club.

Most of the girls in the dorm were Jack’s fans, so they showed respect to Raegan, hoping they could be closer to their idol.

“What were you all talking about?” Raegan added.

“We were talking about the annual campus belle contest.

Come over here. A few of this year’s freshies look gorgeous. Emma might lose her title this year.”

Raegan perked up and said, “Let me have a look.”

Raegan slowly scrolled through their profiles, and suddenly she saw Jessica. She looks so familiar, but I can’t recall where I’ve seen her before.

After browsing her profile, she knew that Jessica was one of the freshies. l might have met her somewhere outside of the school.

Chapter 419

“She’s beautiful, isn’t she? I heard she’s the most beautiful girl from the Faculty of Design, and I think she comes from a pretty rich family,” Raegan’s roommate started, seeing that she had been staring at Jessica’s photos.

“I feel like I have seen her before.” Raegan narrowed her eyes, staring straight at Jessica’s photo.

“Well, beauties all look identical,” her roommate said casually and then started to chat with the rest about who was the most beautiful girl on campus.

Raegan did not think too much about it, as she failed to recollect who Jessica was. She simply joined in the lively discussion with the rest.

The dorm was filled with laughter. As for the beauties who were nominated from the discussion, some were always staring at the vote, and some seemed to be indifferent but were secretly canvassing for votes. The only one who could remain calm in this situation was Jessica.

Madelyn, who was lying on the opposite bed, would glance at Jessica from time to time. Eventually, she couldn’t help but say, “Jessica, you’re in second place now. The number of votes is still rising, and from the looks of it, your votes might just surpass last year’s campus belle.”

Jessica closed the book she was reading and raised her eyes to look at Madelyn. She took out her phone to look at the votes on the school forum before sending a message to Samantha.

Jessica: Do me a favor, and vote for those who are taking first and third place.

Samantha was about to get her roommates to vote when she received the message from Jessica.

She blinked a few times to make sure she didn’t read the message wrongly.

Samantha: Jess, are you sure about that?

Jessica: l am very sure.

Samantha finally understood. Given Jessica’s personality, she wouldn’t be bothered with such a campus belle title.

Samantha took out her laptop and clicked into the school forum.

“Samantha, aren’t we going out to canvas for votes? What are you doing turning on the laptop?” her roommate asked. “Forget about it. Let’s just go with the flow.”

Hearing her reply, the rest went about their own business.

Samantha thought she had found a like-minded companion in Jessica. But it turned out she had been deceiving herself.

Since Jessica had discovered her talents, she had been dumping all the work on her.

Despite her complaints, Samantha did not slow down at all. The manipulation of votes had to be done skillfully, lest anyone find out.

Samantha handled it with attentiveness. Although it was troublesome, the results seemed genuine.

There was a saying that life was as unpredictable as the weather.

The more one desired, the less attainable it was, and vice versa.

Perhaps that described Jessica’s current situation.

“What did you say? I am the new campus belle?!” Jessica stared at Samantha in disbelief.

Samantha nodded. “The first place, Emma, cheated when your votes almost surpassed hers. She hired a skilled student from the Faculty of Computer Science to manipulate the votes, but it was reported. Due to the crowd’s anger, she was disqualified.”

“Then, what about the third place?” Jessica asked.

“The third place is an idiot. She was gonna buy votes for you so that you’d be disqualified when they found out.”

Jessica nodded. This is a good idea, but it’s not that simple.

“But, Emma found out about this and reported her, and so she was disqualified as well. I heard it was her who reported Emma for cheating. Well, it’s not that surprising, I guess. Both of them had quite a fierce competition last year. I was gonna increase the votes for those who ranked below, but their votes were too little. It would be too obvious so…” Samantha looked at Jessica innocently.

Jessica was speechless.

She understood well, but she preferred not to.

Chapter 420

With that, Jessica was crowned the new campus belle. Seeing that Jessica looked unhappy, Samantha smiled and said, “Cheer up! You are the new campus belle.”

“Campus belle? What a joke,” Jessica replied. This feels like shit.

In the middle of the night, Jack and his party arrived at Dellmoor discreetly, without alerting any media and fans. Everyone thought he was still shooting for a magazine abroad, but he had boarded a private plane and came back.

Matthew glanced at the tired-looking Jack, feeling distressed.

According to the original schedule, they should be staying in Frosa for a week. However, Jack had completed his work in four days and rushed back because he wanted to celebrate his birthday with his sister.

“Have you made an appointment with her?” Matthew asked.

Jack replied, “No.”

Matthew was dumbfounded. He could feel his blood pressure rising.

“Free my schedule for tomorrow, and book a restaurant for me.”

“I have made the arrangement. There will be no work for the next three days. You can rest well,” replied Matthew.

Jack took out his phone. He intended to send a message to Jessica, but he kept his phone after looking at the time.

At noon, Jessica received Jack’s message.

Jack: Jess, today is my birthday.

The second message came before Jessica had the chance

to wish him a happy birthday.

Jack: Will you have dinner with me?

Jessica looked at the simple invitation for a long time. Finally, she replied: Okay.

Jack smiled when he saw her reply. He knew better that Jessica was soft-hearted.

In the evening, Jessica went straight to the school gate as soon as class ended. A black Maybach was parked there. When the chauffeur saw Jessica, he went down and opened the door for her.

Coincidentally, Raegan and a few others saw her getting into the luxury car.

“Isn’t she the new campus belle?”

“Yeah, that’s right.”

“Her family is that rich? That’s a Maybach. A Maybach!” The girls watched as the car drove away enviously.

This day, a famous restaurant located on the outskirts of Dellmoor accepted only one table of guests. The restaurant wasn’t big, and the setting was very peaceful.

“The food here is good. What would you like to eat?” Jack passed over the menu.

Jessica saw that there were only two sets of tableware on the table. “Is it just the two of us today?” she asked.

Jack looked sad and said in a low voice, “They’re busy.”

He felt guilty when he said that. However, he could only be shameless in order to gain Jessica’s sympathy.

“I didn’t know it was your birthday today, so I didn’t have time to get you a gift.” Jessica took out a box from a gift bag. “I bought this from the mall. I hope you’ll like it.”

Jack accepted the gift happily. “Thanks.”

Jessica smiled.

Both of them talked and laughed. The atmosphere was wonderful.

Halfway through the meal, Jack saw that Jessica’s mouth was dirty. He stood up, leaned over, and wiped the gravy off Jessica’s lips.

At this moment, the paparazzi who had been hiding in the dark outside took a picture of that intimate scene.

The paparazzi had received news that this whole place was booked, and that person was a celebrity. He had been hiding in a dark corner outside, waiting for that person since morning.

He was thrilled when he saw that the person was Jack. He was all the more excited when he saw that Jack was having dinner with an unfamiliar girl, celebrating his birthday.

I am going to be famous!
