Chapter 209 Drop the Act, Jenny
Jenny didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at the attention. “Since you’ve already worded it this way, Mr.
Bloom, I can’t refuse.”
It was expected that Jenny wouldn’t give Yvonne the time of day, but she didn’t want to antagonize the
Blooms just yet. At the very least, she couldn’t be downright rude. Hence, she said she would not refuse
Sam.
“So, you’re going to forgive Yvonne?” Sam was surprised that Jenny was such a nice person.
“Of course.” Jenny nodded.
Sam was happy to have gotten her confirmation. He glanced at Alec. “And Mr. Faust?”
“Whatever Jenny says.” He appeared to others as if he’d listen to anything Jenny said. Someone in the
dark would think that they were close.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSam smiled happily. He didn’t want to be at war with Alec if he could help it. He was delighted with how
things worked out. He raised his glass and said to Alec and Jenny, “I’m here to thank both of you. If
there’s anything that the Blooms can help out with, I’ll do it fully.”
Jenny smiled, thinking that Sam was a nice person. What a pity it was that he had fallen in love with
someone who didn’t deserve him.
They ate in pleasant silence. It was as if everyone was happy with what had happened.
Jenny got up to use the washroom, and Yvonne quickly tagged along.
While in the washroom, Jenny retouched her makeup. When Yvonne appeared, Jenny thought to herself,
” So, she’s here.”
Yvonne stood next to her, doing nothing except staring straight at Jenny.
Jenny was soon done with her makeup, and she turned to look at her. “Do you have something to say.
Yvonne?”
Because of how great their conversation from before had gone, they were already calling each other by
name, like friends of many years.
“Don’t call me that. It makes me sick.” Yvonne’s face was cold. With no one around, she didn’t conceal
her disgust toward Jenny.
Jenny, on the other hand, was stunned. She put a hand over her lips and said in disbelief, “What do you
mean, Yvonne? We said we would be friends.”
“Friends?” Yvonne smirked. “Drop the act, Jenny. I don’t believe for one second that you’re that naive.”
Since Yvonne had already pointed it out, Jenny thought it would be disrespectful if she kept up the act.
Alright. Calling you Yvonne made me feel sick, too. So what’s up with your performance tonight? Who’s it
for? Sam?”
Jenny was surprised that Yvonne would reveal her true colors so quickly. She thought that Yvonne would
at least keep the act for a little while longer. Yet, before lunch even ended…
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“You’re right. I have my motives for tonight.” Yvonne didn’t deny it, walking toward Jenny.
When Yvonne drew closer, Jenny’s back turned cold. Her guard was up.
But nothing prepared her for what was about to happen.
Yvonne slapped herself. Jenny was stunned. And then, Yvonne slapped herself again.
Just like that, Yvonne slapped herself several times. Soon, her five fingers were imprinted on her face.
Jenny was in a daze. What was Yvonne doing torturing herself?
Once Yvonne was done, Jenny looked at her thoughtfully. “So you’re going to frame me?”
If that were the case, Jenny thought that Yvonne truly had nothing else better to do.
Yvonne said nothing. She walked out of the washroom. Then, Jenny heard her sobbing as she rushed
toward the dining area.
As the sobs faded away, a smile appeared on Jenny’s lips. She walked out of the washroom, eager to
see what Yvonne would play at next.
