Fall in Love After the Flash Marriage

Chapter 160 Her Relatives

Michael’s endless pestering is annoying Shawn to no end, Shawn wants to strangle him to death so

badly.

“How about this, I’ll take the cab. You should give Michael a ride, Shawn.”

Cecelia glances at Michael and Shawn upon hearing what Jenny says, she goes along tactfully and

says, “Yeah, I’ll go with Jenny and will see her home safely.”

“No…”

“What now, she is not famous, and nobody will recognize her. You should be more worried about my

safety.” Michael is clearly determined that he is not going to leave unless things go his way. Though he

isn’t the wisest when choosing his words, no wonder Shawn doesn’t like him back.

Jenny gives Michael a look of pity, she then exchanges glances with Cecelia who is well aware of what

to do. They quickly hail a cab and leave, ignoring the yelling Shawn behind them.

Rather than her safety, Jenny is actually more worried that new gossips will hit the headlines the next

day just because Michael got into the same van as her.

Usually, it is not that easy to be on the headlines, but recently it seems like it happens way too often for

her.

She waves Cecelia goodbye as she reaches the front of her apartment building, she then turns around

and goes upstairs.

She sees a long silhouette of a person from the lights by the stairs when she gets to the second floor.

She looks up and at first glance, the person looks very graceful.

Tracy is originally an actress and a ballet dancer for the army academy of art. She has a good aura and

nice figure, she looks young and refined, and her taste in clothes is top-notch. She looks out of place

sitting in Jenny’s small apartment, her graceful and imposing manner makes it feels like she should be

sitting in a mansion and enjoying her afternoon tea instead.

Jenny is nervous, she pours some tea and put it on the tea table. She glances at Tracy carefully.

She must have something important to say, for her to come over so late in the night.

“Sorry for intruding, I hope I didn’t catch you at a bad time.”

“It’s totally fine.” Jenny quickly waves her hand, she looks at Tracy meekly and asks, “Is there

something I can help you with?”

“Well, it’s not something that important. Luke’s father wanted me to go back to Beijing, I just wanted to

see your family at least once before I leave. I wanted to sit down and have a talk with everybody, but

you were quite busy recently. Though, I understand that fully, hence I came here directly.”

Jenny stays silent for a brief moment, her heart sinks.

“What’s wrong, is it inconvenient right now?”

“Well, no…” Jenny hesitates, “It’s just that, my parents have passed away.”

“Well, how about your grandparents from your father or mother side? Or maybe the relatives of your

father or mother?” Tracy looks at Jenny up and down, “I heard that your family business was quite the

big deal at L County.”

“My grandparents died a long time ago, my father was an only son, and we don’t have many relatives.

Also… we don’t really see each other a lot.”

Jenny mutters and mumbles, she seems troubled.

“How about your maternal side? Is your mother an only child too?”

“My mother has a brother, but we don’t see each other either…”

She doesn’t really like to talk about her mother, or anything related to her.

It has been many years since her grandfather from her mother’s side passed away, but nobody from

that side wants to see her. And it’s not like she never tries to go there, her grandmother just shuts the

door in front of her face, and she is never welcomed.

“What happened? Why do you guys not get along?” Tracy mutters.

The expression on Jenny’s face turns rather stiff, she hesitates for a while and finally asks, “Must you

meet them?”

Tracy is taken aback, it’s like she is the bad guy and is giving Jenny a hard time on purpose.

“Well, it’s fine then.” Tracy maintains her perfect smile, “There is no need to meet them if you guys

don’t really see each other anymore, it’s just that it will be awkward if no blood relatives from your side

attend the wedding. It would make us look bad and disrespectful, people might also start talking behind

our back. I’m sure you know that the Lu family is prestigious, our guests are all famous and rich people.

It would be quite embarrassing for us if they realize that nobody from your side of the family came,

right?”

Tracy keeps insisting that she doesn’t mind, but reading between the lines, one can tell that she is very

bothered by it.

Jenny lowers her head and bites her lip, she feels complicated.

“I can try contacting them.”

“Yeah, that would be great. No need to force it though.” Tracy stands up as she finishes her sentence,

“It’s getting late, I’ll take my leave and will stop bothering you. Mother misses you a lot, do come by and Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

have a meal with her when you are less busy.”

“Okay…”

Tracy looks around the apartment as she leaves, her eyes fill with disdain and contempt.

The driver is waiting downstairs, she immediately orders the driver coldly as soon as she gets into the

car, “Have you not find out about Jenny’s background? She is just a small actress, why is it taking so

long?”

The driver turns his head with extreme deferential, “There was some problem when we were looking

into her parents, it seems like her file was amended by someone, someone is trying to hide something.”

“Fine, forget about it. I’ll ask Yuky to take over.”

Tracy takes out her phone from her handbag and dials the number from the list her frequent contact.

“Yuky, are you busy recently?”

“…”

“Could you help me investigate something? Your cousin works at the management department for

registered residence, right? I need you to look into somebody.”

“…”

“It’s about Luke’s upcoming marriage, I can’t dig out that woman’s background at all. I don’t care if

she’s not from a rich and wealthy family, I just want her to have a clean background. Grandmother is

happily preparing to send out the invitations already, we must prevent bad things from happening

during the wedding and not become the joke of the century.”

“…”

“Okay, I’ll leave it all up to you. Be quick and tell me immediately if you find out something dreadful. I

must tell grandmother in advance if anything happens.”

Jenny is sighing deeply as she sits on the sofa.

She doesn’t really like to talk about her family with other people.

Luke never asks her about her family and she always avoids the topic of her family. She thought that it

will not be an issue, but it seems like she has no way to avoid it this time.

All parents in the world are the same, she fully understands why Tracy is so persistent. Her parents

might do the same if they were still alive, they probably will dig into every nook and cranny of Luke’s

past.

She starts to feel like this will not be an easy feat.

There’s no other way, she has to go to her relatives. Otherwise, Tracy might make a trip herself.

She receives many calls from Frankie for the past two days, but she never picks it up to avoid arousing

suspicion. Maybe Frankie has some leads, but due to the incident with Jessica, Jenny tries to avoid

contacting Frankie to not get her involved. She decides to take matters to her own hand.

The next day, she receives a call from Shawn saying that Eshmour is ready to sign a contract with her.

She needs to make a trip to the Eshmour group to do that.

This contract is the best thing that happened to her, after what she went through in the past two days.

She signs the contract without any problem. Her interviewer Andy, the fashion designer, is not there

this time around. The people present are mainly salespeople from Eshmour. There is nothing much to

do after the signing of the contract, they just let her leave. It is a simple procedure, without any sense of

ritual. Jenny is a bit surprised.

What she doesn’t know is that Andy is having tea with Sky at the coffee shop on the ground floor of the

Eshmour group.

“Are you angry that we didn’t give you the contract?” says Andy, he looks at her as if he is trying to

provoke Sky.

“I’m not angry, just a bit astonished.” Sky smiles slyly and the expression in her eyes stern, “The

decision that the company made just felt a bit out of the norm. It’s just that, there’s nothing to compare

between me and Jenny, I am far superior in every aspect.”

“Nonsense, you had the upper hand in that interview, but she made a good recovery at the end. Jenny

is quite talented, you should not take her lightly.”
