Chapter 341: Cold and Trashy Personality


    Cold and trashy personality


    Jamie and Wendy exchange looks and immediately understands the other, they smiled sinisterly.


    “Dad, mom, this is Jamie. Do you still remember her? We wore the same trousers.” Wendy pulls Jamie


    to the sofa next to her parents, a distance from Duke.


    Who wore a pair of trousers with you? Jamie spits out a clot while smiling and politely greets, “Uncle


    and Auntie, how do you do. It has been a long time since west met. Somehow you look even


    younger than before!”


    Mr. and Madam Wales love to be praised for looking young, particrly Madam Wales.


    “Of course I remember, this is Jamie, wow, how you’ve grown and your mouth has be sweeter.”


    Madam Wales replies with a smile while seeing Jamie nodding.


    “How can we forget Wendy’s good friend? Jamie, treat this as your home and don’t stand on


    ceremony.” Mr. Wales says and gets the servant to serve them a ss of juice.


    Duke casually looks at Jamie and Wendy, without any changes to his mood.


    “Ms. Wales, Missus, how do you do.” Duke gently nods and politely greets Wendy and Jamie.

    Jamie finds it amusing. She is younger than Duke and for him to address her as Missus, is rather


    interesting.


    “Good day, Mr. Field.” Wendy simply replies Duke’s greeting. Now when she sees Duke, she doesn’t


    get excited but is calm as a pool of dead water.


    “Wendy, Jamie and Duke were from the same high school, weren’t you? You knew each other well,


    don’t you?” Madam Wales says as she remembers, without any motives.


    Jamie and Wendy are taken aback with surprise! Can it be that Madam Wales detects something?


    “That was so long ago, mom, I’ve long forgotten about it.” Wendy sticks out her tongue at her mother,


    acting spoiled.


    Madam Wales pushes her forehead with her finger, seemingly despising her for not behaving like a


    lady.


    “Don’t forget, previously you took a stab for…”


    “Mom, you are talking too much today.” Wendy worries that her mother will bring up the incident in


    which she took a stab for Duke and cause unnecessary misunderstandings. She quickly interrupts her


    mother.


    Madam Wales looks at Wendy, “This child, how dare you interrupt your mother in front of so many


    people?”


    The bantering between mother and daughter makes Jamie think of her mother. They used to do this


    too. But that can never happen again, she isn’t as fortunate as Wendy.


    “This is not bad. If it goes on smoothly, in theing year our profits will increase by approximately


    30%.” Mr. Wales looks at the document brought by Duke and praises him.


    “If there aren’t any problems, please sign on the document.” Duke smiles and takes a sip from the cup


    of tea.


    Mr. Wales nods and practically agrees but he doesn’t have a pen with him, he looks around, “Where’s


    the pen?”


    “I have one.” Duke ces the cup down and reaches into his suit for a pen. The pen identally hooks


    onto a ne and drags it out which drops on to the table.


    Mr. Wales wipes his sses, he picks up the ne and inspects it in detail.


    “It’s only a small thing.” Painful memories sh before Duke’s eyes but he pretends not to be affected.


    Jamie and Wendy were talking to each other and did not notice what was happening here.


    “Isn’t this Wendy’s precious Star of the sea ne? Why is it with you?” Madam Wales says faster


    than Mr. Wales when she sees the ne.


    Duke is surprised to see the expression on Mr. and Madam Wales. It is as if they had just seen a long


    lost precious treasure.


    “Uncle and Auntie, you’ve seen this ne?” He asks softly with curiosity.


    Joey once told him that the Star of the Sea was given to her by her mother as a birthday present. She


    never shows it to anyone. Then why has Mr. and Mrs. Wales seen it? And they appear to be so familiar


    with it?


    The answer is about to be revealed.


    “There was this birthday of Wendy and we wanted to give her a present. This child wants a totally one


    of a kind gift.” Madam Wales takes the Star of the Sea ne from Mr. Wales and reminisces.


    “Yes, there was only one Star of the Sea, even the pattern on it was designed by my wife and I.


    Furthermore, you can see in the middle, there is a grain of rice with Wendy’s name.”


    As Mr. Wales says, he lifts the Star of the Sea towards the light and puts it in front of Duke for him to


    take a look.


    Duke looks at the Star of the Sea. From the reflection of the ray of light, he can see the unique


    snowke pattern, and, in the middle, there is a little grain of rice. On it, there is a name, Wendy.


    This exins it all. This Star of the Sea was a present given by the Wales to Wendy and was not from


    Joey’s mother to her!


    Then Joey…


    Duke suddenly stands up and says to Mr. and Mrs. Wales “Sorry, I have to take my leave” and walks


    briskly to the door.


    The Wales didn’t bother with Duke and shows the Star of the Sea to Wendy.


    Wendy stares at the Star of the Sea with her wide-open eyes. Isn’t the Star of the Sea with Duke and


    returned to Joey as an engagement present? How did it end up in her parent’s hands?


    Jamie is also in shock while looking at the Star of the Sea in the Wales’ hands. She turns and looks


    towards where Duke was sitting and realizes that Duke had left without them knowing.


    Wrapped within the Star of the Sea are the secrets of Wendy saving Duke; Eddie saving Wendy but


    Duke had mistaken her identity and Wendy almost losing Eddie. This is the one item that will unravel all


    the misunderstandings and secrets.


    Wendy does not owe Duke and it is Duke who owes her. Eddie does not owe Wendy but it is Wendy


    who owes him a lot, a lot.


    If the secret is resolved, the person who will suffer the most will be Duke. Wendy and Eddie would be


    the victor with all the bliss.


    Jamie sighs and she worries what would Duke do if he realizes his mistake.


    “You child, didn’t you say that it was lost? Howe it is with Duke?” Madam Wales flicked Wendy’s


    forehead and gently gives the Star of the Sea to Wendy, “This time take good care of it.”


    Wendy is speechless, “Mom, it was really lost. If I had given it to anyone, why did I cry for that long?”


    “It doesn’t appear that Duke knew that the Star of the Sea belongs to Wendy and how could Wendy


    give something like this to him?” It was Mr. Gale who is logical and clear in his thoughts.


    “Still it’s father who is the most intelligent.” Wendy says to her mother and walks over to hug her


    father’s arm.


    Jamie shakes her head and looks out the window with apprehension.
