Chapter 91 Jerk Is as Jerk Does
Jessica pouted. “Nothing now. I was going to treat you to a meal as thanks, but I don’t
want to get in the way of your date.”
“What date?” Gianna frowned. “That’s nonsense. He’s just my patient’s family, nothing
else.”
Jessica chuckled. “Oh, how incriminating. If there’s really nothing else, why are you so
nervous?”
“Because you guys keep coming up with stupid rumors,” Gianna replied. “Someone
thought we’re a couple, and I almost got into trouble for that. Now you’re doing the same
thing. Isn’t that a bit ungrateful?”
“That just means I’m not the only one who thinks you two are a couple.”
Gianna glared at her, then said, “Anything else? I’ll be leaving if you have nothing else to
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsay.” A tad startled, Jessica quickly held her hand. “Okay, okay. It’s just a joke. If you say
it’s nothing, then it’s nothing. I really want to thank you, so call me when you have time.
I’ll treat you to a meal.”
“It’s fine. This is nothing,” Gianna replied. “I still have to thank you,” Jessica insisted. “If
it’s not for you, I couldn’t have gone on with the decision to break up with him. I liked him,
you know.”
Gianna glanced at her. “Now you make me feel guilty. I sound like someone who separated
a loving couple. He’s a jerk, so throwing him out ASAP is a good idea.”
Jessica chuckled. “I like talking to you, Gianna. What I’m trying to say is that you helped
me see through him. I’ll maybe be down for a bit after the breakup, but I won’t regret it.”
Gianna patted her shoulder. “Don’t be down for too long. Remember, you can fish a lot of
fish now.”
Jessica nodded. “Yeah. I’ll change a ton of boyfriends. Give me your number. We can meet
up when we have time.”
After they exchanged numbers, someone called Jessica. She frowned before swiping on
her phone to answer the call. “Da-”
The caller said angrily, “Where are you? What happened between you and Ben?” Jessica
was exhausted from this. “I’m outside, and I can’t explain this easily. All you have to know
is that we broke up.”
“This is a marriage of convenience. You can’t just break up. Do you know how much the
company stands to lose from this?” the man bellowed furiously.
Jessica didn’t back down either. “Am I really your child, Dad? Is your company more
important than my happiness? We haven’t even gotten married yet, and he’s already
cheating on me! How do you expect me to stay together with him?!”
The man then tried to advise, “Please understand his circumstances. Ben told us she’s just
a client. Men always have to socialize, so take a step back. They were just sharing a room.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThat isn’t proof anything happened. Ben told me you hit him in public. Is that true? That’s
unacceptable! Come back right now! Ben’s father will come not long from now!” Then the
call was cut.
Jessica’s hand was trembling, and her face was ashen from fury.
“What happened?” Gianna asked.
Tears almost fell down Jessica’s cheeks as she complained, “That b*stard shamelessly
smeared me! He told my parents ! humiliated him for nothing! I caught them red-handed!
But still he tries to justify it!”
That didn’t surprise Gianna at all. “And your father believed him?”
“He can twist the facts like nobody else. Of course, my stupid old man believed him.”
Jessica wiped her tears. “I’ll be leaving now, Gianna. Let’s meet up sometime.” Before she
left, Gianna called her, “Hold up.”
