Chapter 3417
Lettie huffed. Tell her family to pick her up quickly.
Lettie harbored a strong aversion to Jeslyns presence. Every time Lettie laid eyes on Jeslyn, it reminded her of the pain Jessie had endured because of Albert. Therefore, Lettie opted to feign heading to bed as soon as she entered the room, avoiding any interaction with Jeslyn altogether.
Jeslyn and Jessie locked their gazes for an extended moment.
Jeslyn observed the apartment for a while before commenting, its quite tiny, isnt it? Jessie, mindful not to indulge Jeslyn, fetched a bottle of mosquito repellent and sat Jeslyn down on the sofa. She grabbed one of Jeslyns legs and sprayed the content onto it. Its not as spacious as your room, is it? Jeslyn replied truthfully, No, its not even as large as my bathroom.
Despite her urge to kick Jeslyn out once more, Jessie suppressed her frustration.
With her legs no longer itchy, the soft glow of the lights and the
plushness of the sofa enveloped Jeslyn in an inexplicable comfort.
Once Jeslyn felt at ease, her impudent streak resurfaced. She rested her chin on her hand and remarked, Elsie mentioned that you used to reside in a grand mansion as well. This place is so tiny; you must find it quite uncomfortable living here. Well, I hereby grant you permission to be my mother, and then you can live in a big house with me.

Jessie pondered for a moment before adding, I promise to treat you well and never mistreat you.
Jessie tightened her hold.
But Jeslyns pride prevented her from crying out. She simply stared at Jessie with watery eyes.
Setting aside the mosquito repellent, Jessie impatiently declared, I have a boyfriend. But even if I didnt, I couldnt be your mother.
Ask your father to find someone else for that role.
Feeling at a loss, Jessie lamented, Elsie claims that if you dont agree to be my mother, my dad will likely remain single forever.
Have you considered it? There are plenty of beautiful women vying to be my dads girlfriend, some even intentionally getting close to him.
This brought to mind Alberts romantic affairs in the past.
Jessie felt discontented.
Jeslyn persisted. Are you upset? How could Jessie confess? She scoffed. Stop mentioning your father in my presence.
Jeslyn, insightful as ever, countered, If you dont want me to talk about him, it means you care about him. Youre jealous. Her words nearly sparked a confrontation between Jessie and Jeslyn.
Jeslyn leaned back on the sofa, her hand on her belly. Im hungry.
Could you make me something to eat? No. Jessie wouldnt spoil Jeslyn.
