Chapter 19 Fiancé
“Jessica, don’t be mad. We are wrong.”
The reason that Aminah was so popular in this circle was that she knew what to say at any times and hurriedly apologized.
It would be rude for a junior not to accept senior’s apology, so Jessica answered, “Don’t say that, auntie Aminah. You are making me feel worse! I knew that it’s all my fault and I just make Juliette look bad and cry. You can continue having fun and I will just leave. I’m sorry, everyone. Sorry, auntie Aminah and Juliette.”
It was not only Aminah who knew simple logics. Jessica certainly play the nice guy in front of everyone.
Jessica acted like she did something wrong and left.
Aminah meant to let her stay but didn’t know what to say.
After leaving the party, Jessica took out her phone and scrolled over the unread messages.
“Tell me! Did it go well? Did you fake it?”
Amara sent her this message a while ago.
“I tried really hard to make things awkward for them!”
Jessica replied.
“Great! Well done!”
Amara sent Jessica a string of stickers.
Jessica contacted Amara the day she went back and asked her to monitor Aminah.NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
Aminah spent a fortune on buying this dress so that she can frame Jessica.
Amara told her instantly so that she can be well-prepared.
Amara was the most sought-after actress in the business and had won countless awards and a great number of endorsements. Moreover, she got a great team that was incredibly competent.
She was always the center of attention wherever she went.
“Okay, don’t fall in love with me, love you.”
Jessica then sent Amara a cat emoji with rose in its mouth.
While she was just about to leave, she nearly bumped into someone.
A tall figure blocked her road and she looked up and found it was Preston.
The Saunders was one of the prestigious families in Country A and as the oldest son of the family, he was considered as one of the possible fiancé of Jessica while her mother was still alive.
Preston sent out the vibe of warmth and love. He looked like a prince in with suit and all of his attention was on Jessica who wanted to ignore him and just pass him.
“Jessica, it’s been a while. Don’t you remember me?”
Preston pulled Jessica’s wrist lightly.
“I don’t have anything to say to you. I don’t know who you are.”
Jessica’s voice was indifferent and wanted to broke away from Preston’s grip.
Well, she sort of fell in love with him the moment she met him and her mother really loved him.
Preston can always make her feel warm and secure.
But then he stood as a witness by saying that it was Jessica who framed the head of the Armstrong Family.
Now that he had finished his study from abroad and became the general manager of the Saunders Group which basically monopolized the medical consumables market under his leadership and the Saunders just became one of the prestigious families.
“I heard that you married that terminally ill Lucian ? Do you really have nothing to say to me? Would you rather talk with a nearly dead man?”
Preston turned to Jessica and suppressed his voice.
“This is my personal business and it had nothing to do with you. Thank you for worrying.”
Jessica remained aloof.
“I was your fiancé once!”
“Well, right, you were my fiancé! But don’t you remember that you framed me by claiming that I hurt the head of the family? I’ve already returned you the family token!”
Jessica would never forget the felling when she was framed by her loved one!
She can well understand other people to do that, but it was Preston who schemed her, so she would get calculated. Why would believe that he would hurt his fiancée?
Jessica was cursed by everyone and was in hell. She had sworn to part ways with Preston after giving back the token.
“You can only be my woman! How can a terminally ill man satisfy your needs? How can you betray me and marry other men?’
Preston sneered and sized Jessica up and down.
Jessica then slapped Preston on the face and her hand even felt numb.
“Preston, you are always perfect to me apart from that incident! Don’t ruin your image in my mind!”
Jessica got fierce and said coldly.
“Stop pretending to be pure! I know that you have been screwed up many time by men! Do you really think that I would touch you in my current rank?”
Preston talked dirty.
Jessica sneered and thought how brazen was this man! She didn’t have a boyfriend before and though she married into the Fletcher family, she even didn’t sleep with Lucian . How did she become so low to him?
Preston was in some illegal clubs all day and was encircled by all kinds of different woman! Who was the real disgusting one here!
“Well, I might well tell you that I just got a new fiancée and you knew her.”
Preston cracked a mile.
Jessica had no interest in knowing who was his fiancée. She didn’t really care a nobody’s business.
But she had guessed who it was as Preston put it that way.
“Preston, I’ve waited you for two hours! I thought you wouldn’t be here!”
A familiar voice sounded and a girl charged into Preston’s chest.
As expected, it was Juliette.
“Well, it’s my baby’s celebration party today. As your fiancé, of course I would show up. I was just held up by some business. I’m sorry. This is the gift that I prepared. Hope you will like it.”
Preston put on his prince-like persona again and took out a delicate box from his pocket.
“Love at first sight? This ruby necklace is limited edition! I just auctioned it. Do you like it?”
“It’s gorgeous! I love you, Preston!”
Juliette was immediately enchanted by the necklace and pecked Preston on the lips.
Well, the heir of the Saunders Family just attended her celebration party in person and sent her a luxurious gift! The Armstrong can definitely climb the social ladder and her parents would be proud.
“Welcome in, Mr. Saunders. We’ve been waiting for you! Juliette, how can you let Mr. Saunders stand outside? Come in!”
Aminah grinned and was respectful.
“Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Armstrong. I’ve asked someone to work on the capital financing of the Armstrong Group and you didn’t have to ask Mr. Lee for help anymore. We are all a family now and I would definitely help you.”
Preston held Juliette gently and said respectfully.
Thanks to Juliette, the Armstrong’s trouble was taken care of and it also got a strong support, so Aminah was beyond merry.
“Jessica, you haven’t left yet. Let me introduce you to Preston. He is one of the Saunders and your future brother-in-law. You would give them your blessings, right?”
Jessica laughed. No wonder that Kevin was so generous this time. Well, he just got a cash machine.
Preston raised his eyes and turned to Jessica and acted cocky.
“Preston and Juliette look perfect together! Let’s all just forget the past and wish them a happy life together.”
All the guests instantly started buttering up Preston when they saw him.
