Chapter 77 No Way


    Jessica was stunned.


    A frozen silence trailed along the air between them.


    A few secondster, she burst into a smile.


    She looked up at Natalia and blurted coldly, “You think you can fool me?”


    Natalia shook her head, “Forget it if you don’t believe me.”


    Jessica’s face darkened.


    “What exactly do you mean by saying this?”


    “Nothing, it is great if you can understand, but it doesn’t matter if you don’t. I just want to remind you,


    you brought me down five years ago because I was off guard, but now it is different!”


    “Do you really think I am so silly toe without fully prepared, knowing that you and Tammy are trying


    to set me up and destroy my reputation again?”


    Jessica''s face changedpletely.


    She shook her head in disbelief.


    “It is impossible! If you had evidence, why didn''t you disclose it five years ago?”


    Natalia smiled with faint mockery.


    Without another word, she turned around and was about to go inside.


    Caught in a panic suddenly, Jessica reached out her hand to pull Natalia.


    “Stop! Make it clear...”


    However, a figure rushed over at this moment and bumped into Jessica.


    “Ah!!”


    Amid the scream, Natalia hurried over to hold Victoria, and found that Jessica''s gown was stained with


    red wine.


    “Oops! I''m sorry. I''m really sorry. I failed to stop in time running here and bumped into you by ident!”


    Victoria smiled and took out a handkerchief to wipe the red wine for her.


    How dare Jessica let her wipe the stains for her? She was afraid that she would push her intentionally,


    so Jessica retreated quickly.


    “Don''te over!”


    “Tsk! It is you who don’t allow me to wipe it for you! Don''t me me for not apologizing!”


    With that, she felt at ease and withdrew her hands.


    Jessica''s face turned blue with anger.


    Victoria said with a smile, “Don''t be angry. It''s only a dress. It is so ugly that it makes you look like a fat


    old nanny. I have done you a favor to get it dirty. At worst, I will buy you a new one.”


    Jessica was speechless.


    “Besides, pregnant women shouldn’t be angry. What if your anger has an negative impact on the baby?


    This is the only bargaining chip you have to marry into the Miller family! Be careful.”


    Jessica was fuming.


    Marie who had sent Marie into the room was worried about Jessica and came downstairs to her. At the


    sight of Jessica’s gown ruined with red wine, she quickly ran over.


    “Jessica, what happened to you?”


    Jessica said nothing but stare at Victoria, as if she wished to eat her alive.


    Victoria turned a blind eye and said to Marie with a smile, “Nothing. Her skirt got dirty identally.


    Since you are here, we will leave her to you. Pregnant women should be taken care of, we will leave


    you alone. Bye.”


    With that, she pulled Natalia to walk away.


    Marie was left behind, speechless.


    Natalia did not expect that Victoria would suddenlye over.


    As long as she thought of the fact that Jessica got spilled with red wine, she could not help butugh.


    She tugged at Victoria’s hand and asked, “Hey, where were you? What took you so long?”


    Victoria''s eyes flickered.


    “I just talked to a few people I know.”


    Victoria switched the topic to avoid continuing discussion about it. “Did you tell Jessica?”


    Natalia smiled, “Yes.”


    “Did she believe it?”


    “I am not sure, but at least she doubts it.”


    With her eyes casting slightly down, Natalia said quietly, “Sorry to trouble you tonight.”


    Victoria sniggered, “It''s no big deal. I may not be able to help you with other things, but I can handle


    this. Rest assured! If anyonees tonight, I will get her to you.”


    Seeing her confident look, Natalia nodded, smiling.


    On the other side, Jessica, in thepany of Marie, came back to the guest room to change clothes.


    As the entire hotel was booked for the celebration, most attending guests present were allocated with


    separate guest rooms so that they could stayte in the evening. There was no rush for them to leave.


    Both Jessica and Marie''s rooms were on the eighth floor. After entering the room, Marie could no


    longer hold her tongue anymore and shouted angrily, “They crossed the line! How could they pour the


    wine at you in public?”


    Jessica''s face turned sour too.

    “Natalia dared not. It''s Victoria.”


    “That b*tch!”


    Marie was so angry that she gnashed her teeth and said, “It is just because her father is the chairman


    of Ambario Prosperities. What is it? A public disy of power?”


    Jessica sneered.


    “Her identity as the daughter to the owner of Ambario Prosperities is powerful enough! At least she is


    way more powerful than you and me!”


    “But...”


    “That is enough. It is the end of the conversation, and get a gown for me now. Shawn is still waiting for


    me downstairs. I must get down at once.”


    Marie dared not say anything anymore and had to help her to find a dress.


    After Marie left, Jessica went into the bathroom and thought of something as she was washing her


    hands.


    After that, she looked at her pretty face in the mirror and got slightly distracted.


    Natalia''s words echoed in her mind again.


    “Are you really so sure that the manuscript you stole from myputer five years ago is the original?”


    The certainty and confidence in her face seemed to be obvious, and she became nervous.


    No, No way!


    She had literally copied the manuscript from herputer, and by rights, she couldn''t have had


    another copy!


    But why was the uneasiness brewing in her heart?


    She knew Natalia so well!


    She could not have uttered such words in front of her if she had not been so sure!


    She would never put on a show!


    But what if it was not true?


    What good did she get by lying to her?


    Trying to scare her? To ask her to stop getting her into trouble?


    Not likely.


    Jessica frowned and her brain was so messy that she could not figure it out.


    She felt panic.


    In the past five years, outsiders thought she had a good life, but they didn’t know she had paid a lot for


    it.


    Marketing alone could not go far, and she did put in solid efforts and hard work.


    She had worked so hard to get to where she was now and how could she give it up easily again?


    She had spent so much effort to drive Natalia out of the family, to seize Shawn, to get the life she


    wanted, how could she allow it to be destroyed so easily?


    No, no!


    She took a deep breath at the thought.


    There came a knock on the door.
