Chapter 141 Jazlyn, Your Acting Is Pretty Good


    Seeing this, the others at the table fully understood what was going on, as it did not take a genius to


    figure things out.


    However, they were not gossipers. Even if they still found the whole matter confusing, they would not


    press for more answers.


    Jazlyn, on the other hand, was exceptionally frank. She raised her wine ss and said, "I forgot to


    introduce him earlier. This is Petit Corporation''s CEO, Olivier Petit, and he is also my cousin."


    Everyone was suddenly enlightened.


    It turned out that they were cousins...


    Karter chuckled. "Jazlyn, your acting skills are pretty good."


    He had reallye close to thinking that Olivier was her lover.


    "Of course!"


    Jazlyn raised her eyebrows.


    "Eat more, will you?"


    Olivier dropped a fatty piece of meat on her te.


    Seeing this, Jazlyn snorted and rolled her eyes at him. She could not be bothered to respond to his


    little act of "retribution".


    The atmosphere at the dining table was much better than before, and the upants were no longer


    reserved.


    ...


    An hourter, dinner was over.


    When they were leaving the private room, Jazlyn stopped Gwenda and said, "Miss Evans— no,


    Gwenda, please don''t be upset with what happened tonight. This was all arranged by gramma as she


    just wants you two to be together. I hope you can understand that."


    "It''s fine."


    Gwenda smiled faintly.


    "If you''re really angry, you can just vent your anger on Olivier," Jazlyn said jokingly with augh, "I think


    he''s more than willing to be your punching bag"


    ...


    Gwenda blushed.


    At this time, Olivier, who had been behind them, sped up and pulled Gwenda to his side, ring at


    Jazlyn as he warned her. "Don''t talk nonsense!"


    "Humph, you are the one talking nonsense!"


    Jazlyn rolled her eyes at him before returning her attention to Gwenda. "I''m really sorry about today,


    Gwenda. How about shopping and having a meal together next time? Consider that my apology to


    you."


    "Oh, no worries about that. You don''t have to."


    "Oh, it''s necessary. It''s a date!"Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.


    Jazlyn patted her shoulder before letting the couple have some space as she left.


    Seeing this, Olivier smiled helplessly. "Let''s go."


    "Okay."


    Karter''s "scandal" stayed on the Inte for two days before dying down.


    But this incident attracted the attention of many people in the entertainment industry.


    In that time, Gwenda''s reputation gained prominence.


    Seeing that she was getting better and better, Pauline and Gretchen were distraught, but there was


    nothing they could do.


    In desperation, Pauline agreed to let Gretchen enter the entertainment industry.


    In order to pave the way for her, Benson found the most professional manager to help her create her


    celebrity dream.


    ...


    On this day, Pauline and Benson''s sister, Arely Evans, were shopping together, and they talked about


    it.


    "Gretchen is beautiful, smart, and well-behaved. With her father''s support, entering the entertainment


    industry shouldn''t be an issue for her. However, Gwenda is quite problematic. I heard from Benson that


    she has severed ties with you guys?"


    "Well, she''s grown up and has her own ideas. Us adults can''t do much about it."


    Pauline sighed and said resignedly.


    Hearing this, Arely frowned. "Pauline, I''m not trying to criticise you, but you''re just too good to Gwenda!


    You''re too lenient with her. Otherwise, how could she be so arrogant? She actually cut off contact with


    her own family. What an unruly child!"


    "She''s just a little bad-tempered. It''s not a big deal. Please don''t talk about her like that."


    "You''re still protecting her? Gretchen told me everything! When she left, she was yelling at you! What


    an ingrate. You''re so good to her, but she doesn''t even know how to appreciate your efforts."


    Anger shed briefly across Arely''s graceful features and her voice was filled with disappointment. "In


    my opinion, you should be more assertive and put your foot down."


    Pauline said, "Arely, you don''t understand. I''m her stepmother, and I can''t be so harsh on her like I am


    on my own blood daughter. Besides, I really love her. I could never be angry with her no matter what


    happens."


    "You..."


    Arely was so frustrated that she red at her. "Pauline! You''re too lenient and kind. Otherwise, you


    could not have allowed her to walk all over you."


    "Please, that''s enough. Don''t say more."
