Chapter 217
“I was wondering why you suddenly called to ask me to attend yourpany’s annual party. Do you
want me to support you, don’t you?”
After hearing Jessica’s words, Marina suddenlyughed.
Jessica knew that Marina was not a star–chaser.
Hence, when hearing what Jessica had said just now, Marina felt that it was a little strange.
It turned out that Jessica wanted to ask her for help.
“I’m not asking you to help me with anything. It’s just that… I’ll feel especially at ease when you are
beside me.” Jessica tightened her grip on the cell phone.
She did not know when Marina had be her mainstay.
The two of them were clearly about the same age.
However, Jessica could not help but rely on Marina.
“I see. Send me the time and address. I’ll be there on time tomorrow night.” Marina naturally
understood what Jessica meant, so she smiled and replied.
“All right, I’ll send them to youter!” Jessica raised her voice after she heard Marina agree.
After hanging up, Marina received a message from Jessica soon.
The message contained the time and address.
Marina continued with her work at hand after replying. [Received].
That organization was well–hidden, so she had to dig deeper.
The next night, Marina specially arrived at the annual party venue an hour earlier.
Jessica was standing at the door to receive the guests.
Tonight, she was charming.
Her originally long and straight ck hair had been styled tonight.
Now she had a particrly feminine wavy hairstyle.
She was wearing a light blue gown.
The makeup on her face must have been specially done by a professional makeup artist.
It highlighted all her advantages.
Though Jessica was standing in the middle of so many beautiful female celebrities, she was not inferior
at all.
More importantly, her social phobia seemed to have been not as serious as before.
She was still a little nervous when others came to talk to her.
But at least she was able tomunicate normally with people now, and she no longer stuttered when
she spoke.
Marina hadn’t expected Peter to have the ability to train Jessica to be like this.
“Hello, beautifuldy. I was wondering if you’d have time tonight. Would you like to spend a romantic
night with me?” Jessica heard someone say to her.
from behind in a low voice after having just said goodbye to an entertainer of thepany.
However, Jessica was not scared at all. Instead, she said without hesitation, “No problem.”
“Oh, you’ve be much bolder now, haven’t you?” Marina raised her eyebrows..
Only then did Jessica turn around with a bright smile on her face. “Because I know it’s you.”
“How could you recognize my voice when it became like that?” Marina was a little surprised.
Actually, Marina had specially learned vocal imitation. Even her family had been tricked by her many
times.
Moreover, she had never disyed this skill in front of Jessica before.
“Of course, as long as it’s your voice, I can recognize it no matter what it bes!” Jessica said
confidently.
It was as if she were looking at the faith in her heart.
She was extremely pious.
“You naughty girl.” Marina shook her head helplessly.
Marina had just said that Jessica had improved, but all of a sudden, she was back to her old self.
“By the way, did you have this ce set up?” Marina asked again.
“Yes, I did. This is the first time I’ve been in charge of such a big event. I wasn’t confident at first, but
Mr. Moore told me to go ahead and do it. If I mess things up, he can make up for them.” Jessica almost
let it slip.
“Peter did a good job.” Marina nodded in satisfaction after hearing this. Then, she praised Jessica
again. “You did a great job. The venue is beautifully set up.”
“Really? Mr. Moore said so previously, but I didn’t dare to believe it. I thought he was trying tofort
me,” Jessica said.
“Of course, it is true,” Marina said in a firm tone.
The smile on Jessica’s face instantly spread from the corners of her mouth to her eyes.
She looked like a primary school pupil who had been praised by her teacher.
Jessica felt as if she were surrounded by flowers.
“Marina, the annual party won’t start for some time. I’ll take you to your seat now.” Jessica, who had
been a little flustered before, seemed to have taken something capable of setting her mind at ease
after hearing what Marina had said.
Jessica became more confident.
“All right.” Marina nodded.
Jessica knew that Marina did not like to be seated among too many people, so she arranged a remote
seat for Marina in the front row.
However, although this seat was remote, Marina could have a superb vision. She could see everything
in the entire venue.
It was obvious that Jessica had made every effort to arrange the seat for Marina.
Jessica still had work to do. After Marina sat down, Jessica prepared to go to the door of the hall to
receive guests.
However, just as Jessica walked out of the door, arge hand suddenly reached out and pulled her into
the corridor behind.
She was quickly pressed by a man against the wall behind her.
12:05 Wed, 5 Jul A
The man’s movements were too fast for Jessica to see his face clearly.
But, she was extremely familiar with his smell.
Naturally, she was not too shocked.
“Stop fooling around. I still have work to do.” Jessica gently pushed the man who was holding her
down.
“I saw that you were so attentive to Marina just now. When you left, you even looked reluctant.
“Why am I feeling now that you can’t wait to leave when I’m still here?

“Tell me, if Marina and I fall into a river at the same time, will you save me first or Marina first?” Peter
looked at Jessica firmly.
“You’ll definitely let me save Marina first because she’s your most beloved younger sister!” Jessica
looked at him gently.
Peter was speechless.
Peter’s bellyful of anger waspletely stuck in his throat because of this sentence.
“You’re really getting less and less afraid of me now. You actually know how to dig a pitfall for me.”
Peter raised his hand and scratched Jessica’s nose.
“It’s only because I understand you.” Jessica smiled even more happily.
“Hmph, you’ve already known my weaknesses,” Peter snorted a few times indignantly.
Seeing him so unhappy, Jessica immediately tiptoed and quickly gave a kiss on his lips.
Peter hadn’t expected Jessica to take the initiative to kiss him.
In the past, even after he hugged her and coaxed her for a long time, she would only blush and bury
herself in his arms.
She didn’t dare to take the initiative to kiss him at all.
Why did she suddenly be so bold today?
Meanwhile, Jessica took advantage of the moment when Peter was in a daze and quickly came out
from under his arm.
