"I don't know what you're talking about." Jessica tore her gaze away from Cynthia. She was all frustrated and flustered. Cynthia was a sharp woman. It was said that beautiful women were brainless. But this beautiful woman in front of her was by no means a fool.
"You of course know what I'm talking about. I'm talking about your purpose of seeing me here. Tell me why you asked to see me." Cynthia wasn't afraid of coming here alone as she was fully aware that she was well protected. Her bodyguards were posted around her and hid quite skillfully. It was impossible for the so called Miss Xue to set her up. She just came here to figure out who this Miss Xue was. No one dared to threat her. But this Miss Xue, who even threatened her with Daisy's life, seemed to be an exception. She was either ignorant or reckless in posing such a threat. Cynthia was really curious who this Miss Xue was and why she was so fearless in challenging Jonathan's wife. That was the reason why she came here.
"Since you knew what I was doing, why did you come?" Jessica asked plainly. She didn't bother hiding her plan, since she'd already been found out. As Cynthia had come alone, Jessica was confident that Cynthia would never escape the strong thugs she'd hired. In fact, Jessica intended to get Cynthia and Jonathan both. But she didn't dare to do anything to Jonathan. She had learned from the time she met this man at the anniversary party that he was a dreadful enemy. However, she was sure that if Cynthia died, that would give the Mu clan everlasting pain and suffering. Jessica didn't know how much Jonathan loved his wife until recently. He treated Cynthia like the queen of his heart. What would become of Jonathan if he lost his beloved wife forever? Edward was proud of his family, of his amiable parents and his beloved wife. Would his perfect family stay intact if his mother vanished from the face of the earth?
Daisy was a superb soldier. The last time she tried hink about your husband when you said such a sick thing? You're a mother. What a good example you have set for your daughter-in-law!You are no better than a bitch." Jessica twitched her mouth to show her contempt for Cynthia. It was beyond her expectation that such a dignified woman would have such an abject idea and would even speak it out.
"Bitch? Jessica, do you think it is a fault to be fond of a beautiful face? So, Jessica, do you mean you don't like good-looking men? Then what do you think of my son? Do you think he is handsome or not? If he's not handsome, why did you fall in love with him instead of picking some ordinary guy? And you have gone crazy for him!" A mocking smile broke across Cynthia's face. What a stupid woman Jessica was! She was teasing Jessica and she was totally falling for it. Jessica didn't know what true love was. She'd never understood the faithfulness of lovers. She didn't even try to understand why Cynthia loved her husband. Nor did she understand Cynthia's love toward her husband. Cynthia just said those words to paint Jessica as a whore. But Jessica was foolish enough to misunderstand it. Jonathan was charming. In Cynthia's opinion, no other men were more enchanting than Jonathan. Her husband was the only one to whom she was willing to surrender her heart.
