Chapter 49 Engaged in Hot Battle
"What do you mean, Miss Wilson? Are you jealous?" Jessica noticed that Anna's face was white with rage, and she felt so happy. Unexpectedly, Louis got rid of her and took his arms out.
Before she could react, Louis hugged her into her arms and kissed Jessica on her lips...
Jessica was shocked.
Louis kissed her all of a sudden and everyone was in a great shock expect him.
Anna was shocked.
Terry went blank for a second but he hid his feeling immediately.
However, Jessica was in a rage.
She was kissed by him again!
His lips were cold and the kiss was like a punishment which made her out of breath.
Jessica wanted to resist and get rid of him...
However, when she glanced at Anna whose face was dark, she was so delighted and gave up the thought. She reached her arms out instead and placed her hands on Louis head and rubbed his hair smoothly. Jessica even made some sound when kissing on purpose.
She wanted to piss Anna off.
Anna was sick of it but she put up with it so as to preserve her image. "Louis, Let's eat the food..."
Then Louis stopped the kiss.
And Jessica could feel the air around was cold.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Seeing that Louis let go of her slowly and then elegantly looked at Anna saying in a lower voice, "See, she is so sticky that I can't eat the food quietly."
What he said was like he was in a relationship with Jessica.
Jessica twitched her lips and thought that how could he be that calm?
But she sighed in relief and to be honest, the kiss did make her heart pound so fast and the blood pressure went up in a straight line.
She had to calm herself down.
Anna however was white with rage and she stared at Jessica fiercely, "Louis, I know. But I don't care. I am patient enough to wait for you." Jessica found what she said was so phony.
Louis lifted his eyebrows but didn't say anything.
He picked up the chopsticks and ate the vegetables that Jessica put in his bowl.
Jessica was shocked.
He just said that what she ordered was the food for rabbits.
Anna was in a shock too. But she was shocked because Louis ate the vegetables in his bowl.
Then, the meal just started in a weird and creepy atmosphere.
During the meal, Anna still lured Louis shamelessly from time to time.
"Louis, I heard that sea cucumber is good for man. You should eat more..."
Seeing that Anna was putting some sea cucumbers into Louis's bowl, Jessica reached her hand and stopped her immediately.
They were engaged in hot battle
Jessica smiled friendly at Anna, "sea cucumber is good for invigorating the kidney. Miss Wilson, are you implying that Louis's sexual performance is not good?"
Then she had a look at Louis innocently and smiled.
Anna was shocked when she heard what Jessica said.
Then she put the sea cucumber into her bowl and shook her head, "No, I don't mean that. Don't wrong me, Louis..."
Louis twitched his lips slightly and kept silent.
Then they all lapsed into silence again.
The dinner still continued...
Anna couldn't just sit there still and quietly, and suddenly she said something that surprised Jessica a lot.
"Louis, thanks to your appreciation that We Wilsons Group could get such a good mark at the first round of the bid... My mom tells me if I get a chance, I must learn from you!"
Jessica took a log breath and she was nervous when she heard Anna was mentioning about the bid.
And she peeked at Louis and she noticed that his face twitched a little bit.
Jessica's fingers were trembling.
Anna didn't know that the drawings her dad sent to her were stolen from Louis by Jessica who risked her life to do that.
Though Jessica knew that her father always protected Anna so well, she didn't expect that his father would never tell Anna the dirty things he did, but pushed Jessica fiercely into a fiery pit and let her just die there.
Jessica was so disappointed that she felt her heart was bleeding. She sneered and swore Anna quietly, "You bitch, Anna!"
Anna kept talking about the bid and chimed, "I am not sure whether Louis is satisfied with the performance of the Wilsons Group or not. I hope Louis would keep an eye on us at the second round of the bid..."
Jessica couldn't help rolling her eyes and she wanted to seal Anna's mouth with tape. Jessica didn't care Anna would be revenged but she didn't want to be dragged by her anymore.
Jessica lifted her legs under the table.
"Ouch, who kicked me?"
Anna screamed and touched her legs and then she stared at Jessica and lifted the juice in her hand without hesitation.
Then she poured the juice on Jessica's head relentlessly, and the juice dripped into her chest, her clothes...
Anna was so quick and accurate and no one could be that better at pouring others than she did.
More importantly, Louis wasn't spattered by the juice at all.
Jessica sighed and she was clenching her fingers tightly.
That was the second time!
It was the second time Anna poured at her since she did that to Jessica with tea last time at the Louis's office.
Jessica would slap Anna's face if there wasn't anyone passed her a Kleenex.
"Wipe the juice." The one who was talking to him was Terry who kept silence for a long time.
Jessica got the Kleenex from him with her hands trembling then she looked at Terry gratefully, "Thanks."
She almost burst into tears when she looked at Terry.
She stood up and said, "Excuse me. I need to go to the washroom."
Then she turned around and strove to the washroom before her tears dripping down.
Jessica cleaned up herself in the washroom.
But the juice was just stained on her white shirt and she couldn't clean it out.
Forget it.
When she walked out of the washroom, she saw Terry was leaning against the wall and he was smoking.
Seeing Jessica was out of the washroom, he put out his cigarette.
He walked over to her and glanced at her then said, "Jessica, it's been a long time."
She nodded and smiled at him politely, "Yes, it's been a long time. How are you?"
Terry nodded his head but his eyebrow's slightly furrowed, "not bad, as you can see, I work as an architectural consultant in Wilsons Group."
Jessica smiled lightly.
"Aren't you curious?" Terry asked.
"Curious about what?" Jessica lifted her eyebrows and asked him confusedly.
"Aren't you curious that why am I working for the Wilsons Group and be a dog of Anna Wilson?"
Jessica was shocked when she heard what Terry said straightforwardly.
"Everyone has their own choice, and I respect their choices." She smiled.
Then she turned around and was about to go back to the hall.
Terry wasn't reconciled to what she said and then shouted at her, "Jessica Wilson, you've changed. If you had fought with Anna for Jeremy like what you did today, our destiny would be so different."
Jessica trembled when she heard the name of "Jeremy".
She stopped but said nothing.
Terry chimed, "Jessica, Jeremy is back to Chicago. Do you know that?"
Her body trembled again.
At the moment she saw Terry, she almost cried. But she didn't cry for him, but he reminded her of the kind and quiet boy...
Terry was the roommate of Jeremy at that time.
"Is he?" Jessica's voice was a bit husky.
And she choked with sob.
She recalled the crush on Jeremy at that time, which made her heart pound so fast.
Terry went up and saw Jessica's tears welled up to her eyes, and then he sighed, "Jessica, when Jeremy was really ill at that time, you didn't even pay a visit to him. Do you know you hurt him so much? Since then, he went abroad. He didn't want anyone. You know that, no matter how Anna haunted him, Jeremy always waited for you. I thought you gave up Jeremy because you are the younger sister of Anna, and you did it out of your love to her. But you made me so disappointed tonight. You can even fight with Anna for Louis Carter. Jessica did I or Jeremy misjudge you? Is it because Louis Carter richer than Jeremy?"
What Terry said made Jessica's heart ache and she could feel the bitterness of her eyes.
Money?
She had asked herself for many times that if Anna didn't disturbed the relationship between her and Jeremy, if she didn't need those five millions dollars, would she have a chance to be in a relationship with Jeremy?
However, everything changed these five years. Her son was growing up. Could she go back to the pass?
No, she didn't.
She was so suck. How could she ask a kind and pure man to back to her?
Jessica was afraid that she would smear him.
She looked up at Terry and smiled, "You are right. You can think that I prefer money. Sorry, Terry, I don't want to mention what happened in the pass."
Then, she passed Terry and walked away like what she did at that year...
She was back to the hall.
Louis always finished his meal
He wiped his lips and didn't leave any oil stain.
Jessica even doubted that he ate nothing but air. How could he be so clean?
Anna who was sitting next to Louis smiled decently.
When he saw Jessica was back, he didn't give any chance for her to reject and then he stood up from the chair and picked up his jacket at the back
of the chair, said in a lowered voice, "go and check the bill."
"What?" Jessica was shocked.
Anna took an almost gleeful delight in waving to the waiter and asked him to come and check the bill.
When the bill was placed in front of Jessica, she saw the total came to 1400 dollars.
That was the most expensive restaurant in Chicago! That cost her an arm and a leg.
She gnashed her teeth and gave a gloomy look at Louis. It was because of him who had ordered so many dishes but he only ate few of them. Besides, he even attracted the attention of Anna Wilson!
When he finished his meal and wiped his mouth. Louis just said that she needed to check the bill which cost a half of her salary this month!
Jessica was swearing Louis in mind, "Louis, you such an evil capitalist. You are so mean, the kind of person to bear anyone a grudge! Fine, you win!"
Jessica looked at those dishes on the table, and her heart was aching for her money.
She had to submit an expense account to Benjamin Carter...
They walked out of the Chinese Restaurant.
Anna was reluctant to say goodbye to Louis and then left with Terry.
