NovelEnglishBefore Jonathan even said anything, the woman who was standing beside him spoke up.
Having heard Janice Durant’s voice, Sasha glanced at her.
Janice appeared to be around forty years old. She had porcelain skin and was dressed up elegantly. At
that moment, she was looking at Sasha with a gentle smile on her face.
Sasha did not know what to say. Aunt Janice? When did such a person appear among the Jadesons?
Also, she doesn’t look like an arrogant person like Jasmine.
“Yes. Janice’s right. It has nothing to do with the Jadesons. Don’t worry about that. Just bring the
children over tomorrow,” Jonathan said.
He was insufferably arrogant as usual, as if other people did not exist.
Sasha knew that she could not reject them anymore. She could only leave with Janice.
“I heard that you were coming back. Everyone was delighted at the news. That’s why they suggested
holding a reception party for you, and I volunteered to help you.”
When both of them left Oceanic Estate, Janice explained to Sasha in a gentle voice.
The latter glanced at her several times.
Ever since Sasha came back, she had met many women around Janice’s age, including Jasmine,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCandice, and also Yancy.
However, Sasha knew that all of them were scheming women. Although they looked friendly on the
outside, they were secretly plotting to destroy her.
Yet, Janice seemed to be different.
After Sasha and Janice left Oceanic Estate, they went to the most bustling area of the city and found a
high-end store that specialized in customized gowns.
“Niece-in-law, this is the best boutique in town. Which kind of design do you like?”
“Me?” Sasha was stunned.
She came to the realization that Janice had brought her there to customize a gown. Is this necessary?
It’s just a dinner party.
Sasha looked at all the dresses in the store and said, “I don’t think this is necessary. We’re just going to
have dinner together.”
“No, it’s a must. Dad ordered me to do this. Just accept it with an open heart. After so many years, this
is the first time I’ve seen him be so meticulous over something,” Janice persuaded solemnly.
Sasha pursed her lips and kept quiet.
After buying a gown, Janice brought Sasha to buy some jewelry in a jewelry store. The older woman
chose all the best ones for her. All the passersby were casting envious glances at Sasha, including
Janice, who was coincidentally shopping there.
“Mrs. Jadeson, isn’t that the branch descendant of the Jadesons? How did she suddenly become so
rich? She’s buying such expensive jewelry for that other woman.”
“That’s right. Mrs. Jadeson, you’ve never experienced that before, have you?”
All the wives of the various prominent families around Jasmine started asking her about Janice.
When Jasmine heard all their comments, her face darkened.
Some time ago, Devin had gotten her out of jail after the poisoning incident. Ever since then, she had
obediently stayed in Red Pavilion and had not gone out in a while.
Today was the first time she mustered up the courage to go out with several wives of other wealthy
families. Unfortunately, they had witnessed that scene.
Jasmine was staring at Janice and Sasha. Who’s that young woman? She must be Sebastian’s newly
wedded wife. The news has spread widely among the Jadesons. Now, everyone knows that she’s not
dead. I can’t believe she has returned here. But why is Janice Durant the one buying her jewelry and
gown?
Jasmine was beyond jealous.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn her opinion, Janice was not qualified to greet and take care of the granddaughter-in-law of the
Jadesons. I should be the one doing that!
“Mrs. Jadeson?”
“I’ve got something to do. All of you carry on. I’ll go first.”
Jasmine turned around and left, leaving all the other women befuddled.
In the jewelry store, Janice and Sasha had not seen Jasmine. They left the shopping mall after they
were done with their purchases.
“Niece-in-law-”
“Just call me Sasha,” Sasha interrupted Janice.
Janice was taken aback for a moment.
Shortly after, she smiled and said, “All right. Sasha, shall we go home now?”
Sasha shook her head and said, “No. It’s time to pick the children up from school. I have to go now.”
“Okay. I’ll have to drop by Chartreuse Heritage Kitchen to order some dishes for tomorrow. Take care of
yourself, Sasha,” Janice reminded before she left.
As she nagged, she reminded Sasha of Wendy.
Later, Sasha drove toward Opal Garden Academy.
It was the first time she went to the school. Before that, although she knew that her sons were studying
there, she had not dared to make an appearance because her identity had still been hidden.
