"Leila, if I said I didn't blame you at all, would you believe me?"
Jessica looked at Leila. Seeing her proud face, Jessica smiled.
No!
Leila wouldn't believe it!
Leila felt that Jessica was trying to hold on. After all, there were so many people here.
If Jessica didn't blame her at all, how was it possible? Women were jealous, not to mention that Lorenzo had lighted so many sky lanterns in order to celebrate her birthday today. Now, everyone knew it!
Leila felt that she was favored the most by Lorenzo now, which had long exceeded the time when Jessica and Lorenzo had the hottest relationship. She was also a woman. With such a big gap, wouldn't Jessica blame her?
Impossible!
"Jessica, you have to know that women can't be sulky. It's not good for your health. I'm your good sister. I'd rather you vent your unhappiness. I also don't want you to be angry. I will feel sorry for you. Our parents will worry about you too.”
Leila looked like she really cared about sisterhood.
Aminah specially invited a professional team to dress up for her today. Now, she appeared in front of everyone gloriously. Last time in the car, Aminah made Kevin happy. These days, she often had sex with him. Today, she looked so good.
"Jessica, when did you come? Your future brother-in-law has prepared a surprise for Leila. So many sky lanterns are just one of the birthday gifts. Although you two are my daughters, your starting point is different. The crow can dress up like the phoenix, but in the end, it will be debunked for its ugly face. Today is also your birthday. You should dress decently."
"Leila, Mr. Lorenzo is coming soon. I will accompany you to meet him."
Aminah was respected by others because of her daughter. In the past, she was ridiculed by everyone, but now she finally could show off.
Aminah smiled, held Leila’s hand, and walked in the other direction.
Leila looked at Jessica, just like the victor. She was arrogant. Other ladies and playboys all mocked Jessica now.
"Leila, just ignore her. Look at her dress, so vulgar."
"Before, Mr. Lorenzo was interested in her and gave her the Eternity Necklace on a whim. She really thought she was the queen? So ridiculous!”
"If Jessica knew that she would fall out of favor, she would definitely not show off in front of us. Now she must regret it so much."
"Shame on her! She still wants to seduce Mr. Lorenzo? How could Mr. Lorenzo like such a wild girl? Just the bad old man in private estate is more suitable for her."
As Aminah and Leila walked away, a group of people who liked to gossip followed them.
"Leila is really thick-skinned. Where did she get her confidence, thinking that Mr. Lorenzo lit the sky lanterns which fill the whole sky just to celebrate her birthday? So funny. It’s Mr. Lorenzo to celebrate your birthday, so he did that. But all the media reported it at random."
Looking at those guys, Jessica stood there and didn't move. Then she received a text message from Amara.
"The good show has just begun. Just let them be happy for a while."
Jessica quickly replied.
When the banquet began, all the guests gathered in the incomparably luxurious banquet hall. It was more like a wedding scene.
In order to give Jessica a blow to the greatest extent, Leila put two guide signs in the middle of the hall. One was to lead to Leila's birthday banquet, and the other was to lead to Jessica's birthday banquet.
Half an hour later, most of the guests gathered at Leila's banquet, while Jessica's side only had a few guests. There was a strong gap and a stark contrast.
"Kevin, see, how good Leila is. I also tried my best. For the sake of my sincerity, forgive me, okay?"
Aminah hugged Kevin, saying sweetly.
Kevin had been praised by everyone recently. He constantly entertained every day, chose the contract as he wanted, and used the money to make money. He lived a so comfortable life recently.
"Well, it's true. The birthday party makes us proud. The most joyous thing in my life is to have Leila. I also want to move on. Let us forget the past things. The good days are waiting for us. Go and accompany me to socialize."
Kevin smiled and hugged Aminah. He planned to introduce her to the big bosses. Aminah knew that her good days were about to begin.
Some young people with avant-garde thoughts didn’t mind it. True love was invincible, but traditional wealthy families would never allow women with such backgrounds to enter their homes.
"She’s really brave enough. Is she not afraid of scaring herself to death when she wakes up and sees that face at night?"
"At such a young age, she likes such an old man?"
"The fashion trend has changed? OMG, I can't keep up with the trend of the times."
Listening to everyone's discussion, Aminah and Leila were very happy.
"Jessica, since you married him, you have to live a good life with him. Got it? Don't do anything to make the family shame."
As Jessica’s father, Kevin had to stand up and say something no matter how he didn't want to face it.
"Son-in-law, although you are older than me, since you got married with my daughter, I accept it. Come here. Let's have a drink."
Kevin said first.
"That’s rubbish!"
Kevin directly took Travis’ hand and was about to go to the other side. Travis frowned slightly and his voice was cold.
Kevin thought that he had heard wrong. He was stunned for a while before he reacted. He looked at Travis, but was shocked by his cold eyes.
Although Travis was only the butler of the Armstrong family, he had followed Ganny Mrs. Fletcher all his life. What kind of occasion had he not seen before?
He looked away from Kevin's face and swept across the crowd. The banquet hall, which had been noisy, suddenly fell silent.
"Miss Jessica, I wish you a happy birthday!"
Travis walked to Jessica, and nodded respectfully.
