Chapter 78 “She’s My Sister.”
Only a few girls who were very good with Jessica, sat beside Jessica, looked at the many boys surrounding Ava and sneered, “This Ava, her charm is really not ordinary, she had became someones mistress, but she can still go back to school.”
“Yeah, it’s back, and there are actually boys from our class who don’t mind her at all for who she used to be.”
“Hey, could it be that she’s particularly skilled in bed? Or else so many boys would rush to ask her questions?”
“Hahaha, Lily, that’s a sharp statement, but what about the possibility?”
“that’s not necessarily true, wasn’t that Noah’s mistress at the time? How come all of a sudden it’s out? How come Noah suddenly stopped coming? Maybe maybe it’s just that she doesn’t have the eyes for it…”
“Yes Oh, did you see? She can not smile ah, the other day she wanted to smile, the result of squeezing out that smile, so scary, feel and cry the same…”
“Em… mm… Yes yes, I’ve seen that, several times, and it’s like that, really, I understand now what it means to have a leathery smile.”
A group of girls are extremely demeaning to Ava in front of Jessica in an attempt to get Jessica to consider herself as her best friend.
Jessica just quietly listened to the girls and didn’t say anything, suddenly she said with some distraction, “Don’t you ever say that again, Ava is my sister!”
For some reason, Jessica suddenly admitted in front of many people that Ava was her sister, and all of them froze and were dumbfounded.
” Jessica, don’t you joke… that woman from the slums, how can she be your sister? that’s a bit of a joke, don’t you think?” One of the girls who was close to Jessica smiled sarcastically.
“Yeah, yeah, I’ve never heard of it before, how could it be? Jessica, you’re kidding, right?”
“I’m not kidding, my mom is Ava’s mom, we are half-sisters, so she is my sister, I ask you guys to stop talking nonsense in the future.” Jessica said seriously.
Now, the girls around her didn’t know what to say, but Jessica had taken the woman she once hated as her sister.
Jessica looks at Ava, who is surrounded by a group of boys in the distance, and she suddenly makes up her mind. If she wants to keep this woman away from Noah, away from the city, she must first enter Ava’s heart, to make Ava psychologically admit that she is her sister, and everything, must start with her to disclose their sisterhood. The first step is for her to reveal their identity as sisters.
After school, Ava was about to go to the cafeteria to get some food when Jessica grabbed Ava’s arm, Ava then saw Jessica and asked softly, “There is no class this afternoon, can’t you go home? Why do you want to go to the cafeteria with me?”
“Sister, I know you’ve been unhappy lately, I want to keep you company, originally thinking what to do, to be more appropriate, so I haven’t bothered you too much, yesterday mom and I had a heart-to-heart talk, I know I’m a bit willful and petty, but, sister, were the only family you have now, aren’t we?” Jessica smiled gently and brightly.
Ava was touched by Jessica’s smile, but she still had hesitation, she didn’t know how to deal with others: “Sorry, Jessica, I really want to say something, but I don’t know what to say, I hope you don’t mind!”
“Silly sister, how can I mind it, in the future, ah, I am willing to accompany you all the time, at least I won’t let you be lonely anymore, okay? Sister, is it okay?” Jessica was like a little girl, holding Ava’s arm and swaying.
Ava could only nod her head.
For this lunch, Jessica followed Ava to the cafeteria and ate in the cafeteria.
Ava is accustomed to the bland food, but although Jessica is not treated well at the Roth Family, she does not eat badly, and she is not used to eating in a big pot like this, but she has to pretend that it is delicious.
Ava finished her meal and looked at Jessica chewing slowly, she said with some guilt, “I’m sorry to make you follow me to eat such a meal, you shouldn’t be used to it, right? Why don’t… come back to my apartment with me to eat afterwards.”
Jessica’s heart secretly laughed, but on the surface, she had to pretend to be surprised: “Sister, you know how to cook? Will it disturb you too much?”
Ava shook her head: “It’s not hard at all, I can cook, why don’t you come back to the apartment with me for dinner later, it’s not that far anyway, just your high heels for ten minutes, I don’t know if you can adapt?” Ava’s eyes fell on Jessica’s ten centimeter high heels.
Jessica laughed: “I can shop all day in these high heels, don’t worry, sister, it’s fine, then it’s a deal, in the future, ah, I’ll eat with you, how about it?
Ava still just nods or shakes her head in a gesture: “Yes, it’s fine. I’ll get what were going to eat ready for the evening. And in the evening? You are going home…”
“In the evening, I have to go home, mom said that I can not go out at night. ” Jessica lowered her eyes, ridiculous, how could I tell you that I was going to see Noah at night? Let you remember that man, won’t I have no chance?
“Oh, well then, it’s settled then, I’m going to the library, what about you?” Ava looked at the time, it was almost time to go to the library to study.
Jessica is not going to the library, what is it like in the library, she does not even know, she smiled: “I have to go and do something with my mother this afternoon, I will go home first, tomorrow at noon it is agreed, I will come to your place for dinner, sister.”
Ava grabbed her book and left the table, followed by Jessica.
This afternoon, Jessica decided to go to the Brown Group to check on Noah, and for once, Noah would talk to her.
Jessica went straight to Noah’s elevator as usual. The lady at the front desk was used to Jessica’s daily arrival and just smiled politely at Jessica.
Noah was not in the office, and Jessica knew he was in a meeting. It seems that she saw on the news that the Brown Group had recently met a strong rival or something.
Jessica sat on the sofa waiting for Noah to come back, she was bored, she could only look around the office, then she found a hidden door in the office, she gently pushed it, there is actually a not big but not small world inside, there is a bed, a closet, and a bar, it seems to be Noah’s resting place, Jessica pulled open the cabinet by the bed Jessica pulled open the cabinet by the bed, but saw a picture, very familiar, it was Ava, Ava turned around in the fallen leaves and smiled.
“What are you looking at?” The sudden male voice startled Jessica’s hand, and Ava’s picture fell on the carpet.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Jessica turned around and saw that it was Noah, her face was already red, as if she had been caught stealing something.
Noah walked up to Jessica, looked down at the red-faced Jessica, slowly squatted down, picked up the photos that had fallen on the floor, and put them back in the drawer.
Standing up straight again, he said to Jessica, “There are places that you should not come in, and there are things that you should not know.”
The cold sweat on Jessica’s back came out, she had heard long ago that Noah disliked people doing what he did not want them to do, she nodded desperately, turned around and walked away from the small room. She nodded desperately and turned around and walked to the small room. She sat down carefully on the couch as if she were a child who had made a mistake.
Noah closed the hidden door with his hand. He sat down in his place, turned on his computer, and as usual, ignored Jessica’s presence and went back to work.
Jessica saw that Noah did not pursue the question, then put down her heart, heartbeat slowly fell down, she said softly: ” Ava…”
“Oh?” Sure enough, Noah stops what he’s doing when he hears Ava’s name, not looking at Jessica, but indeed stopping what he’s doing.
” Ava asked me to come to her apartment for lunch tomorrow, and I agreed, she is quite lonely and I want to keep her company.” Jessica talks about herself as if she is very affectionate in general.
“Oh, that’s good.” Noah paused for a moment and then went back to his work, as if what Jessica had just said had nothing to do with him at all.
Jessica looked at the side of Noah at work and her heart started to beat so fast, why could this man be so charming? She never knew that a man who worked hard could be so charming. Such a wealthy and handsome man is rare in life, one must get him no matter what!
Jessica thought silently in her heart. It just seems that this man doesn’t seem to care about all the people and things around him.
By late afternoon, Jessica had fallen asleep on the couch and was slightly surprised when she opened her eyes and found herself covered with a blanket, which she thought Noah had covered her with.
She said somewhat apologetically, “I’m sorry, I didn’t know when I fell asleep… Thank you for covering me with a blanket…”
Noah is still doing the work at hand, don’t take your eyes off the computer at all: “It’s okay, it’s the secretary who covered it for you.”
A sentence, as if a pot of cold water splashed on Jessica’s heart…
She thought it was Noah who covered himself with something, but it turned out that she was just being selfish, this man, indeed, is very heartless.
Jessica wanted to wait for Noah to go out for dinner, but the secretary had already brought in dinner and Noah asked Jessica, “Do you want some?”
Jessica shook her head and said, “I’d better go back, mom must be anxious to wait for me, wait until next time I’ll accompany you to dinner.”
Noah didn’t stay and just had his secretary take her to the elevator door.
Jessica got on the elevator, her heart and the elevator in general, gradually sank…
When Jessica left the office, Noah sat on the couch, eating the meal prepared by his secretary, he remembered Jessica’s words that she would cook for her tomorrow at noon.
