Obsessed With Her Novel by Master Momo (Chapters 521, 522, 523, 524, 525, 526, 527, 528, 529, 530)

Chapter 521

“The first series we present to you is ‘Spring’, by Ms. Nicole Zanders.”

At the end of the host’s introduction, the lighting and the background changed. The stage transformed into a space full of greenery and vitality. As the rain dropped, the models slowly appeared on stage.

The dim lights, coupled with the greens on the costumes, exuded a refreshing and comfortable feeling.

When Yusra saw the stage effect, she instinctively tightened her grip on Aaron’s hand.

“Honey, look. The designs are outstanding. Will it affect Lilian?”

Aaron smiled and patted the back of her hand softly. “Trust your daughter.”

“I do.” Though Yusra quickly proclaimed her confidence in Jessica, her expression said otherwise.

After seeing the second series, Yusra was a little relieved. John’s designs were not as good as the first.

“That’s the end of our second series. Next is Ms. Tracy Murray. She was the last episode’s top-rated designer. Let’s enjoy her show.”

As the lights dimmed, thousands of sparkles filled the recording studio. The entire space had turned into a starry sky.

The models gradually appeared on stage, dressed in light purple and hundreds of tiny diamonds. The reflection from the diamonds formed thousands of sparkles and turned the stage into a sea of stars.

All the audiences were amazed by the scene.

“Wow. This is so pretty.”

“So beautiful.”

“I love the dresses. Where can I buy them?”

Yusra was astonished to see the dresses. She wrapped her hands tightly around Aaron’s, as she was getting anxious. Even Aaron was worried after seeing the show. They feared that it would affect their daughter’s chance of winning, as it was truly amazing.

“What can we do?” Yusra was worried.

“Believe in Jess.” Aaron tried to calm her down.

“Can’t you say anything else?” Yusra shot an unhappy look at Aaron as he had been repeating the same answer. Aaron was speechless.

Anger filled Jack’s face the moment he saw those dresses. The lights lit up at the end of the show.

Tracy then led her models to the stage to take a bow.

Snow was excited. “Tracy, what a great idea! I really love it. I want to buy the dresses for myself now.”

Tracy smiled at the host’s comment. “This idea came into my head unexpectedly. I was looking at the starry sky the other day, and I thought to myself, let’s put it on us.”

Snow was amazed by her answer. She then turned her attention to the judges. “May I ask the judges’ opinion?”

“The series is stunning. Anyone will fall in love with it easily, and that includes me. I love it.” Linda was the first to voice her opinion.

“Wow, this is the first time I’ve heard such a good appraisal from Ms. Linda,” said the host. “What do you think, Ms. Lawrence?”

“Excellent!” Oceana raised her thumb at Tracy.

“Another good review from Ms. Lawrence.” Snow turned her gaze to William.

“Sea of stars! It is a good idea!” William said with a smile.

“They took my words.” Frankie gave a wry smile. His comment also showed his satisfaction with Tracy’s designs.

Snow then turned to Jack, the only remaining judge who had not voiced his comment.

“Mr. Ferguson, what are your thoughts on this series?”

Chapter 522

Tracy was anxious and excited as she was looking forward to Jack’s comment.

After all, she was his fan. It would be the best day of her life if she could receive praise from him.

Everyone’s attention was on Jack, including the Ferguson couple. They wanted to know his judgment.

Jack picked up the microphone and shot Tracy an icy glare.

“Are you sure that these are your designs?” Jack questioned her coldly.

The audience gasped in surprise.

“What does he mean by that?”

“Why did he say that?”

“If I understood him correctly, he said she took someone else’s design as her own.”

“Plagiarism? I don’t think so. It’s a shameful thing to do.” “Maybe we misunderstood him.”

The recording studio was full of discussion.

The judges and the host, along with the models, were dumbfounded.

“Yes, it is my design.” Tracy’s face stiffened as she tried hard to smile.

Meanwhile, Benny ran toward the backstage resting area when he saw Tracy’s designs. Everyone was surprised to see him slamming the door.

“What’s wrong?” Jessica noticed Benny’s red face and the panic that filled his expression.

Benny pointed outside as he was panting. “S-Something’s wrong. Tracy’s designs are exactly the same as ours.”

“What!” Everyone was stunned.

“What do you mean? Start from the beginning.” Jessica was puzzled.

Benny took a few deep breaths and said, “Her theme is the ‘

Sea of Stars. The dress designs are exactly the same as ours.”

Jessica’s theme for her designs was “Starry Night”.

Upon hearing that, Jessica immediately walked out of the room. The models followed behind as they were curious about the two similar designs.

When a person was labeled as a plagiarist, they would forever be considered a plagiarist. No international designing firms would be willing to accept the work. Hence, such a reputation was fatal for a designer.

The atmosphere on stage became awkward.

Tracy first thought that if she answered Jack’s question, he would stop questioning her. Unfortunately, she was wrong. Are you sure you designed these by yourself?”

No one would ask the same question twice. When the audience saw Jack asking Tracy the same thing again, they knew that something was wrong.

“Shit! Something’s wrong with the dresses.”

“Jack would never talk nonsense. He must have known that something was wrong.”

“What? She took someone else’s design?”

The four judges looked at each other in disbelief.

“Jack, are you sure it’s not a misunderstanding?” Frankie asked.

Jack ignored him and continued glaring at Tracy with his cold eyes. “Answer me!”

Tracy was frightened by his anger. She looked around and saw the audience gossiping while looking at her suspiciously.

She took a deep breath. “Mr. Ferguson, I’m not sure why you keep asking me this question. I am the creator of design, and I did it alone.” Her tone was serious.

“Really?”

Suddenly, everyone heard a chilling voice from the corner of the stage.

Jessica got up to the stage along with her models.

The audience was stunned as they saw the models.

Chapter 523

“Oh my! Their designs are exactly the same!”

“One of them must be the copycat!”

“If there’s an issue of plagiarism, then the person who plagiarized is truly shameless.”

“Jack must have known of the plagiarism. That’s why he kept asking her about it.”

“Tracy must be the copycat!”

“I agree!”

“Come on guys. Please don’t jump to a conclusion. What if Tracy is not the copycat? Jack may have seen the last participant’s designs and is trying to help Tracy.”

“Exactly. Don’t jump to a conclusion so soon. If Tracy isn’t the copycat, it will ruin Jack’s reputation.”

The fans were discussing the possibility of either designer becoming a plagiarist.

The judges were even more confused.

Jay immediately stopped the show.

Tracy, on the other hand, stared at the models’ dresses with her eyes wide open. “This is your design, but… Why…”

A smile crept across Jessica’s face as she saw Tracy’s reaction. “Tracy, are you sure you designed those?” “Yes! What about you? Why are your models wearing my designs? When did you get my drafts? How could you do that to me?” Tracy scolded Jessica angrily.

Yusra immediately stomped toward the stage in anger when she heard Tracy’s accusations.

Aaron held her back. He spoke softly in her ears. “Please, relax. Jack will help Jess with this. He won’t allow them to bully her.”

Tracy was full of confidence as she turned her attention to the audience.

“I know all of you are speculating about the identity of the plagiarist. Actually, we can just ask the production team. They requested us to submit our drafts four days ago, and they have seen our designs. So, they know who is the designer of this series.”

Everyone looked at Jay.

Jay quickly walked toward the two designers and requested, “We’ll deal with this backstage.”

“No!” Tracy retorted. “It’s better to deal with it here. I want everyone to see who is right, who is wrong.”

Her declaration had the audience sided with her.

“Look at how she reacts. I don’t think she is a copycat. She wouldn’t be so confident if she was.”

“I did suspect Tracy as the plagiarist, but now I’m not sure.”

“So, who is the copycat?”

Yusra’s anxiety worsened when she heard the audience’s comments. She was scared that her daughter would be framed.

“Help her!” She looked at Aaron and demanded, “Lilian is not the copycat.”

Jessica, on the other hand, agreed with Tracy. “Yes, do it here, in front of everyone.”

Jay sighed after hearing their answers. He then turned to the audience and said, “Our production team has requested the designers to submit their drafts before the show. Those drafts are now sitting in the safe deposit box. The drafts are totally different. I’m not sure why the last two participants have displayed the same designs. But we can retrieve the drafts to prove the identity of the designer.”

Chapter 524

“As a precaution, I will bring along Jack and the four judges with me to retrieve the drafts.”

His proposal had won everyone’s consent.

Half an hour later, the director came back to the studio with four sealed envelopes.

“These are the drafts submitted by the participants four days ago.”

Jay looked at Tracy and Jessica. “Do you want to open them here?”

“Yes!” The two replied in unison.

“Okay, I’ll respect your decision.”

Before the director unsealed the envelope, Jessica looked at Tracy again and asked, “Tracy, I’m going to ask you the last time. Are you sure you design those?”

“Yes,” Tracy replied with absolute certainty. “Jessica, I know you’re a newbie. I don’t mind if you have accidentally imitated my designs. As long as you apologize, I will forgive you.”

Jessica laughed at Tracy’s idiocy. Her answer would definitely cause an issue for herself later on.

“Open it.” Jessica turned her gaze to Jay.

Jay unsealed the envelope after hearing Jessica’s words. The first envelope contained Nicole’s design, and the second one was John’s.

Everyone started to get nervous as Jay moved forward to open the third envelope. All attention was on the envelope.

Inside the envelope, there was an entirely new design, but there was no name on it.

“Who is the designer for this?”

“Why isn’t there a name on it?”

“Exactly, there’s no designer’s personal logo as well.”

“I thought we could find out the truth by now. Who knew we needed to wait till the last envelope was unsealed.”

Though the design was not as good as the Sea of Stars series, everyone agreed that it was beautifully done…

Upon seeing that no one claimed to be the designer, Jay proceeded to unseal the last envelope.

Everyone held their breath as they watched Jay retrieving the envelope. As the anxiety built, everybody could not help but realize that Jay’s actions had become slow.

When he took out the drafts, it was the Sea of Stars.

Everyone turned their attention to the bottom of the drafts and saw Tracy’s name.

They immediately glared at Jessica with disdain and disgust.

Tracy scolded Jessica angrily, “Jessica! How could you! Your designs are pretty as well. You don’t have to imitate my design. Though they are not as good as mine, you are talented. You shouldn’t do this.”

“Impossible!” An angry female voice spread through the studio.

The people around turned their gaze to Yusra and saw her rushing to the stage furiously.

Aaron did not dare to stop her. He quickly followed her to the stage.

Jéssica and Jack were surprised to see them. The siblings did not expect their parents to attend the show. Yusra walked to Jessica’s side and coldly glared at Tracy.” The drafts may have your name on them, but it doesn’t mean that they belong to you. These drafts are locked in a safe deposit box for four days. Anyone could easily change the name on it. It doesn’t prove that you are the designer.”

Chapter 525

Tracy and everyone else stared at the odd female who suddenly stood out from the audience.

“And you are?”

The staff approached the female. “We are trying to sort this out. May I have you return to your seat, please?”

Yusra stood firm. “If the decision made is not reasonable, I, of course, must criticize it.”

Tracy scoffed, offended by what the woman just said. “Are you trying to accuse us of being a fraud with the production team? Please don’t make baseless assumptions. This is pure slander to me and everyone else working here. Why are you so protective of Jessica? Who is she to you?”

Jack pondered the situation. Someone from the production team must be in collusion with Tracy. Their purpose in doing this is very obvious. They do not want Jessica to prove her innocence. She will be forced to carry the guilt and shame of being labeled a plagiarist and suffer in silence. It will be a waste of effort to check the surveillance cameras if they even existed in the first place. Someone who dares do it would automatically be aware and avoid it as well. Who would be so stupid as to expose themselves to the surveillance cameras? The current situation is very unfavorable for Jessica. We need to have solid evidence to prove that the draft belongs to Jessica if we want to turn the tables around.

Jack stood out from the crowd and walked to Yusra. “This is my mom, and Jessica is my younger sister. Do you have any more questions?”

The confession caused an uproar in the crowd.

“OMG! My future mother-in-law is just sitting beside me and I did not know at all!”

“I must’ve been blind! I can’t even recognize my future in-laws!”

“The gentleman sitting beside my mother-in-law must be my father-in-law. No wonder my husband is so handsome. That’s where he got his perfect genes.”

“My husband is so handsome, and his family members are so outstanding and elegant. I can’t take it anymore. I’m going to faint from the family’s perfection!”

“Oh! If she is Jack’s sister, then she is my sister too!”

“I finally understand why Jack questioned Tracy after he saw her line of clothing. He must have seen it before when Jessica was drawing it.”

The truth was exactly like how the fans guessed. Jack actually saw the drafts when Jessica was designing them. Jay never expected Jessica to be Jack’s sibling, albeit knowing that Jessica was somehow related to him.

Nobody ever assumes that siblings from the same family will have different family names. Who would have thought that they were a family?!

The judges were just as shocked as the rest of the audience. They were all staring at the family.

Jack’s attention was focused entirely on Tracy, not giving a damn about the crowd’s reaction.

“I saw this draft when my sister was drawing it. It is identical to what you are presenting now. I’m curious as to how it has become yours.”

Tracy snapped back to her senses, took a deep breath, and suppressed her chaotic thoughts. “Mr. Ferguson, I adore you very much. However, you can’t just accuse me of plagiarism just because you want to clear your sister’s name and reputation. They are like my children; they are my hard and honest work. It’s unfair to me if they are claimed to be someone else’s just because you say a thing or two about it.”

Chapter 526

“I know the majority of the audience here are fans of Mr. Ferguson, even myself. However, I am willing to swear to God that I am the one who created this draft. If my signature on it proves nothing, then I don’t know what else can I do to prove it. If you insist that Jessica is the creator of this draft, please provide the evidence. Otherwise, this is all hearsay and an act of blatant defamation.”

Tracy looked at Jack and the others as if she were innocent and people were mistreating her.

Jessica, who had remained silent all this time, walked to the front and took the draft.

“Tracy, please take a good look at it. This is your draft, yes? This is the drafting paper you used, right?”

“Of course, this is my draft. How could I possibly not recognize it?”

“Good.”

Jessica walked toward the audience. “Who has a bottle of water?”

“Me.”

“Mé too.”

“I have one too.”

Jessica walked over to a young lady who offered her a bottled water.

Everyone watched Jessica closely, curious as to what she was planning to do with the bottle of water.

Jessica took one of the drafts and placed it on the table.

Tracy scrunched her eyebrows. “Jessica, what are you doing?”

She had a bad feeling about it.

“Proving that the drafts belong to me,” Jessica merely replied.

The next thing everyone knew, Jessica poured the entire bottle of water on the draft in front of everyone.

The crowd gasped and their eyes went wide with shock. “What are you doing?!” Tracy frantically shouted.

“You failed to copy my design and now you are destroying my draft? Are you trying to get rid of the evidence so that you can get away with it?”

“Jessica, h…-how could you destroy the draft?” Jay muttered in shock.

The judges wanted to say something, but none of them dared to speak. This was because they felt that Aaron looked familiar, and they thought of the rumors about Jack’s identity. Then it finally dawned upon them who was standing in front of them.

They were not in a position to mess with Aaron.

They were trying to recall if they ever made mean comments and were afraid anyone would remember and point them out.

“Shut up, Tracy. Why are you so worried? We haven’t concluded if this draft belongs to you or me yet,” Jessica snapped at Tracy, who condemned her actions earlier.

While Jessica was lashing out at Tracy, a change was forming on the drenched piece of paper.

Beneath the draft, a hidden painting revealed itself.

It was composed of alphabets spelling out Jessica’s name.

Jessica showed the draft to the crowd so that everyone could see it clearly.

The entire room, including the judges and all the other staff, exclaimed loudly in utter shock.

“I’ve never expected to see a plot twist like this in my life! I thought it only happens in TV dramas!”

“Tracy, how could you shamelessly claim that the drafts belong to you?”

“Yes! Now we can prove that Jessica is innocent and Jack was not lying.”

“This designer is so shameless! She was trying to frame them.”

“Damn, I almost got deceived by her pitiable face pleading innocence.”

Some of the audience even cursed out of anger. “You bitch! You should be ashamed of stealing other people’s ideas! You and your family will receive karma one day!”

Tracy’s eyes were fixed on the draft paper, her mind in a state of shock. “H…-How can this happen?” she muttered under her breath.

She initially hoped to become famous by taking credit for Jessica’s artwork. She wished that the current conflict going viral would boost her fame, but it turned out that there was a miscalculation in her seemingly perfect plan. She did not expect the draft’s unique mechanism to be revealed.

Chapter 527

Jessica glared at Tracy with murderous intent and said in a condescending tone, “Care to explain how my draft became yours?”

“H-…”

Jack turned and gave Jay a side-eye. “Mr. Taylor, my sister’s draft was handed over to your team for safekeeping. Yet it somehow landed on someone else’s hands. Please give us a valid explanation.”

Jay quickly attended to Jack and gave out a nervous chuckle. “Mr. Ferguson, this incident is clearly a careless mistake on our part. We are really sorry for this mess. We will definitely give you an update once we have everything sorted out.”

Jessica looked at Jay, then at Tracy. “I have only one request. Both the production team and Tracy need to publicly apologize on Twitter and explain what happened. I will not pursue this matter legally.”

Jay’s face turned uneasy. “Jessica, this request seems…”

Not wanting to hear what poor excuse Jay was about to spew, Jack cut him off. He said in a grim tone, “It’s just a simple Twitter post, and you are already giving excuses. How do you expect me to entrust you guys to handle this mess?”

Jay pursed his lips as his face turned bitter. “Mr. Ferguson, once we apologize publicly, that’s the end of our TV program. Can we manage this with an alternative solution?” While Jack was confronting Jay, no one noticed that Aaron walked to a quiet corner to make a phone call. The call was quick, and he swiftly snuck back to where Yusra stood. After a few minutes, Patrick rushed in with a very obvious look of worry on his face. His eyes frantically looked around the hall for Aaron and hurried toward him once he spotted the man.

“Mr. Ferguson, please accept my sincere apologies for letting your daughter suffer such a big grievance. I will most definitely investigate this matter thoroughly and follow up closely on it. I promise you that I will get to the bottom of this.”

The production team and the judges recognized Patrick, who was their Director.

The way everyone was staring at Jack and Jessica changed after seeing how their director treated Aaron.

He waved off angrily at Patrick as if brushing off his statement. “Mr. Patrick, my daughter submitted her work to your team. It ended up in someone else’s hands. If it wasn’t for Jessica having her own way of proving that the draft was hers, our family’s name would’ve been tainted badly and she would become a laughing stock. Are you trying to make us famous in a twisted way?”

When Aaron spoke his last sentence, his stern face became that of a friendly one with an underlying expression of threat. He was smiling at Patrick, who felt like he was stabbed in the chest with a knife.

“Mr. Ferguson, please don’t say it that way. I would never do this to you even if I had the courage of a lion.”

Going against one of the most prestigious families in Summerdale would be the dumbest decision ever.

Jay was terrified when he saw how his company’s director was being so humble and cautious toward Aaron.

“Mr. Patrick, my daughter was just asking your team to make a public apology. It seems that this is an impossible task for them.”

Patrick turned to Jay and gave him a quick glare before turning back to smile at Aaron. “My team doesn’t know better. This is obviously a grave mistake on our part. We will clarify the entire situation and publicly apologize on Twitter.”

He then turned to Tracy. “Ms. Tracy, if you can kindly confess who was your accomplice in this case, you will be given a lighter punishment. Otherwise, we will hold you legally responsible.”

Chapter 528

Tracy pursed her lips and curled her fists into a ball. Patrick, my father is the sponsoring party for this show.”

Upon hearing that, the production team and contestants looked at her, their eyes wide with surprise. They had no clue that Tracy’s father was sponsoring the show.

If her father’s the sponsor, then it wasn’t a surprise that she could steal Jessica’s draft.

The audience’s attention shifted to Patrick and Jay.

Someone here must know something about this.

Patrick gasped as a moment of realization flashed across his thoughts. “Jay Taylor.”

His face became pale as soon as he heard his name. “D- Director, I…”

The room was filled with tension as the Ferguson family looked on at Patrick and the production team trying to solve the issues internally.

“It doesn’t matter who your father is. We don’t give leeway to rule-breakers. We will deal with this accordingly.”

“You…”

Tracy felt helpless, as even her father’s name couldn’t save her. Then she turned to look at the Ferguson family.

“Jessica, can I have a word with you in private?”

“Whatever you have to say, you can just say it here.”

Tracy frowned. “It’s not convenient for some of the things I want to say.”

“Well then, don’t.”

Tracy gritted her teeth in frustration and huffed angrily. “I’ll buy this draft from you. Just name your price.”

When Jack heard that, he seethed with anger.

The audience in the front row heard what Tracy said as well, and they gave her a disapproving look.

“Who is she trying to insult?”

“Nobody wants your dirty money, you bitch!”

“What! You think you can just buy someone off their artwork?”

“Such an arrogant thing to say. Does it look like Jack is someone who needs money?”

“Yeah, Jack already earns millions in endorsement fees every year. I can’t even guess where you got the nerve to say such things.”

“How dare she use money to humiliate Jessica!”

“Who is this bitch looking down upon?”

“I’m so pissed I’m about to beat some sense into her. First, she steals other people’s artwork and heinously claims it’s hers. Now she’s shamelessly using money to humiliate the rightful creator by trying to buy it off from her! This is too disgraceful!”

The audience was fuming with rage as they threw insults at Tracy nonstop. The judges and other contestants were speechless and taken aback by her behavior. They could not fathom how she turned out to be someone like this.

In everyone’s eyes, Tracy gave away the impression that she was merely an arrogant person who didn’t speak much to the surrounding people.

No one would have ever thought that she was way worse than that.

A plagiarist who would dare frame the original producer for copying.

After getting caught, she tried to solve the issue using money.

She thought that there was nothing wrong with what she did, and it was all because of money.

But Nicole and the rest observed Jessica and her family. They did not look like people who lacked money.

“Buy!?” Jack scoffed in disbelief. “Can you afford it?”

“A hundred and fifty thousand dollars.” Tracy voiced out in a strained tone.

To most people, having that amount of money is but a dream far unachievable. Yet, for the Ferguson family, the amount was so puny that it was like a mere bucket of water compared to their sea of wealth.

Jack was about to retort, but Jessica spoke first.

“Do you know what my paper is made of? Do you know how much it costs to make such a piece of paper? A hundred and fifty thousand dollars is not enough to buy it. Frankly speaking, I don’t think you can even afford it.”

Even though the manufacturing cost was not high, the cost to research and develop the paper was very high. The patent fee was also costly.

But these facts won’t hold Jessica back from teaching someone a lesson.

Jessica stepped forward and pointed her index finger at Tracy. “You should save that bit of money of yours!”

Chapter 529

Tracy felt insulted.

Today, she realized that money was not invincible.

Jack was a celebrity, so he must be well off.

Even though Tracy knew that Jessica was Jack’s sister, she still chose to use the money to solve her problem.

She believed that there was nothing money could not buy.

It was only a matter of the amount offered.

Tracy took a step back. Emotionlessly, she named a price. “750 thousand dollars.”

Jack noticed that she did not understand the problem and wanted to use the money to settle the issue. “Ms. Murray, you must be confident about the assets your father has.”

“My father has just invested in a major film production. If 750 thousand dollars is not enough for you, I can convince him to hire you as the male lead. I’m being very generous with my offer.”

Patrick and a few of the judges were speechless.

This brat must have been spoiled by her family. She’s so arrogant. Ignorance will eventually lead to the downfall of the family.

Jack approached her. He bent down and whispered in her ear, “We’ll see if your father can still keep his assets.”

With widened eyes, Tracy berated, “Are you threatening me? You’re just an insignificant actor. How dare you threaten me?”

Jack ignored her.

“Benny, get the lawyer on the phone.”

“Yes, Mr. Ferguson.”

l don’t have to waste my time with people like this. Tracy smirked when she heard Jack’s words.

She thought that he was just trying to scare her with his words.

“Then there’s nothing else for us to discuss,” said Tracy. She threw her nametag onto the ground and left.

After Tracy had left, Patrick turned to look at Aaron. “Don’t worry, Mr. Ferguson. When we find that person, we’ll give you an explanation and bring justice to Ms. Jessica.”

A few more scenes were recorded before they ended the recording.

Before the audience left the studio, Jack approached his fans. “Please don’t publicize the incident that happened today. Jessica is my sister and I don’t want her to be in the spotlight.”

The fans nodded.

“You must never speak a word about it.”

“Jack, don’t worry. We’ll keep it a secret.”

Jack turned to look at Benny.

Immediately, Benny said, “Jack has prepared some snacks for all of you. You can each take one.”

When Jack left, the fans were extremely excited.

“Oh my gosh! Jack is so caring. He’s so good to his little sister.”.

“I wished I was Jack’s little sister. That way, I can be protected by him.”

“Dream on. Did you all notice that Jessica was amazing too? It probably runs in the family.”

The leader of the fans warned. “Previously, I’ve heard that when Jessica was harassed, Jack left the industry out of anger. You should not make the same mistake. Jessica’s identity must not be revealed. We’ll be at a loss if Jack leaves the industry again.”

“Don’t worry. We’ll keep it a secret. We’ll deny it if anyone asks about it.”

“Why don’t we form a fan club to protect Jessica’s identity?” Everyone immediately agreed with the idea and started discussing the details of the club.

Chapter 530

As they left the television station, Yusra held onto Jessica’s hand, feeling sad.

She turned and looked at Aaron and Jack. “Make sure that you bring justice to Lilian. She should not be mistreated. It’s unacceptable.”

If her paper was not unique, she might have taken the fall.

Both Jack and Aaron nodded. Then Aaron assured, “Don’t worry, Yusra. We’ll avenge her.”

“No, I must inform Hugh and Sebastian. They are more meticulous,” muttered Yusra.

Aaron and Jack were speechless.

Yusra did not trust either of them.

Aaron thought that his wife must have treated Jack as a fool. That was why she had no confidence in him too.

He looked daggers at Jack.

Jack could sense the danger around him. He turned his head and met his father’s glaring eyes.

He’s blaming me because his wife doesn’t trust him!

Jack gritted his teeth. However, he decided to hold back after studying his father’s expression.

l won’t argue with my elders! I’ll be the bigger person! Hugh was working in his office when he received a call. He wanted to ignore the call but decided against it when he saw his mother’s caller ID.

“Mom, what is it?”

“Hugh, someone bullied Jessica.”

Hugh froze. “What happened?”

Yusra explained the whole incident to him.

Right then, Brandon came in with an urgent report that Hugh had asked for.

Hugh gestured for him to place the report on the table.

Before he left, Hugh instructed, “Brandon, get me information on the Homeland Group. I want the company’s financial reports from two years ago.”

“All right.”

After Yusra ended her call with Hugh, she immediately called Sebastian.

“Sebastian, Jessica was bullied.”

Jessica wanted to say that she was not bullied.

Jack wanted to say that he could handle the situation.

Aaron did not want to say anything at all.

“What happened to Jess? Who bullied her?” questioned Sebastian.

Yusra repeated the whole incident again.

“Sebastian, you have to bring justice to Jessica. It seemed like it was not the first time that woman had done something like this.”

If it was her first time, she would have been flustered. However, she was insistent on solving the problem with money. She must have done it a lot of times.

“All right, I understand.”

After ending the call, Yusra held onto Jessica’s hand and comforted her. “Don’t worry. You have your brothers supporting you. She won’t be able to get away with it.” Smiling, Jessica replied, “Yes.”

A thought came to Yusra’s mind. She asked, “Lilian, where did you get that paper? It looks special.”

“Uncle gave it to me.”

“When did Uncle Jackson prepare a gift for you?” asked Jack.

Jessica knew that they had misunderstood her.

“I’m talking about Charles, not Uncle Jackson.”

It seemed all right to call Charles an uncle.

After all, Charles and Aaron were roughly the same age. Jack gritted his teeth. “That jerk.”

Aaron gave Jack a good slap on the back. “Mind your manners. He’s your uncle.”

Jack winced in pain. “Dad, why did you hit me? Your princess will soon run off with a horrible man.”
