Chapter 139 Are You Praising Me

Early in the morning, Jessica was eating porridge, deep fried dough sticks and soybean milk at home leisurely. By her side, her parents were also eating breakfast.

"Jessica, you are not a little girl anymore. Heidy had become a big winner in her life. Although she has divorced before, her husband is excellent now and she will soon have a child. You should hurry up," Vicky said.

Jessica narrowed her eyes into a slit, pressed her lips and said with a smile, "Mom, my ears are getting tired. Heidy is a good girl, but I'm different from her. Different people had different fate. Maybe I'm not that lucky. Mom, don't worry about it. Just let nature take its course."

When her mother was about to continue her nagging, her father, Dean, smiled and said, "All right, don't push her again. Now that she had grown up, she knew what she wanted. Are you worried that you can't have a grandson? She is still young enough."

After Jessica gave him a thumbs up, she smiled and said, "Great! You are so smart, father. I'm such an outgoing, beautiful and generous woman. How could I not find a good man. Father, mother, I will find you a good son-in-law. As for now, I will take my time."

Vicky glanced at her and said, "You are really good at making dad and mom happy. I'm so glad that you can find someone nice."

While they were talking, Dean's phone rang. He took out his phone, listening to the conversation. He frowned. Seeing that, Jessica hurriedly asked, "Dad, what's wrong?"

"A student fight happened in the school. Two of them are injured and hospitalized. I have to deal with it right now," Dean said in a serious tone.

Jessica stood up in a hurry and said, "Father, let me handle this."

Dean looked at her in astonishment and asked, "You?"

After she wiped her mouth, Jessica nodded firmly and said, "Haven't you told me a few days ago that I have to inherit the company in the future. So, I have to adapt to it ahead of time. So, let me handle it."

Dean agreed after thinking for a while. "That's good. You are in your twenties and you should gain some experience. I'll ask my secretary to come with you later."

Before he finished his words, Jessica rushed out of the house. "I guessed she didn't want to hear me nag about her marriage, so she came up with this reason," Vicky said with a sigh.

Dean patted her on the shoulder and said with a bright smile, "Since you know what kind of person your daughter is, you don't have to worry about her. Our child has her own live. Don't push her too hard."

Vicky glared at him and scolded, "You spoiled her." She lowered her head and continued eating.

Then the secretary accompanied Jessica to the hospital. Looking at the young man who was lying in the bed and crying out of pain, Jessica walked up to him and took a glance at him. "Are you the boy who took the initiative to make trouble?"

Upon seeing her, the young man shouted, "I'm not making trouble. I was hit. Are you the one in charge? Just say it. As I was injured by

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."

She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

e are even now. It's not a good thing that Colin will be put on the blacklist of her company because of this."

the middle-aged man thought for a while and then said, "Well, Noah, I agreed."

It never occurred to Jessica that the matter would be settled in this way. A few seconds later, an evil smile appeared on her face. She turned to Colin and said, "Don't bully others anymore." Then, she turned around and left.

After saying something to Colin, Noah left the ward. When he walked to the hall, he found that Jessica was leaning against the wall. "Are you waiting for me?" Noah was flattered.

Jessica smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to be so reasonable. I thought you would be as arrogant as your cousin."

When Noah stood in front of her, he leaned forward and asked, "So, are you praising me?"

"Of course, you can put it this way. Anyway, thank you for helping me out today. Otherwise, I might have spent more time dealing with it," said Jessica, with a smile on her face.

If it weren't for Noah, she would have needed to waste her time on this thing. It turned out to be a good result which could save her some time and energy.

"You are welcome then. Why don't you invite me for dinner?" Noah asked with a smile

"No way," Jessica refused straightforwardly, "I want to have dinner with a rich man like you. Rich people are extravagant and wasteful. I will die of hunger if I take you out for dinner."

"You sounded as if you were poor," Noah teased with a twist of his mouth. "Sure enough, rich people like to pretend to be poor when they have to invite others for dinner," Noah added.

Jessica slapped on Noah's shoulder and said proudly, "I'm not stingy. What would you like to eat? It's my treat."

A few words successfully changed Jessica's mind. Suddenly, Noah felt that although she was a little unruly, she was very cute. "Okay, it's a deal. Let's go," said Noah with a smile

Jessica paused for a few seconds with a bitter smile. Then she followed Noah.
