Chapter 486
At the hotel entrance, Pearl cursed under her breath when she stepped out of her car and spotted
Jenny wearing a smile.
As they said, enemies often cross paths.
“Wait a minute, Pearl? Is your crew having a farewell party here today? What a coincidence!”
Although Jenny’s words appeared polite, Pearl detected an underlying tone of provocation, especially
in the way she said, “Wait a minute…”. It was evident that Jenny hadn’t reached her breaking point
yet.
“Yeah, let me see if your face has healed, Jenny. It was quite swollen and scary before, but there seem
to be some scars now,” Pearl remarked casually while examining Jenny’s face.
Jenny panicked at the mention of scars on her face. She quickly retrieved a small mirror from her purse
and checked her complexion. Finding no flaws, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Pearl found the situation hilarious and couldn’t hide her laughter, “Alright. Stop checking yourself in the
mirror. There’s a restroom to your right once you’re inside. Bye.”
“How dare you-” Jenny shot Pearl a vicious glare but then spotted Richard approaching. She restrained
the harsh words on the tip of her tongue and said, “I know you don’t like me, but you shouldn’t speak to
me in such a tone. Your words are rather unpleasant. If others hear this, they might think you’re
bullying me.”
Jenny truly lived up to her reputation as a top actress. When she shed tears, it was
convincingly heart-wrenching and could tug at anyone’s heartstrings.
“Who’s the bully here? You’re the one who started it. Do you want me to list all the things you’ve done?”
Esther retorted.
Birds of a feather flock together, as they say. Esther, born into a wealthy family, was accustomed to
being straightforward. Though her words might come across as harsh, she was merely standing up for
what was right.
Pearl couldn’t help but chuckle as she observed the feisty little firecracker beside her.
“I know you like Pearl, Rick. But you shouldn’t let her bully others like this.” Jenny no longer expected
Richard to take her side. She just wished he would be fair and not let the group gang up on her.
“I don’t mind.” Richard would stand by Pearl’s side even if he didn’t know who Jenny was. Moreover, he
was well aware of Jenny’s cunning nature.
“Did you hear that? Even your old flame, Eric, wants nothing to do with you. Not to mention Richard,
who has disliked you for a long time. You compete with Pea in everything. Aren’t you afraid of fallingnovelbin
into a pit someday?”
Esther had been hanging out with Mobius for a long time and had developed a fiery temper. Now, she
had a spunky charm that made her a delight to be around.
Pearl appreciated Esther’s straightforwardness regardless.
“Alright now, Miss Jenny. Este has a way with words. If she said something that hurt your feelings, it
might cause more trouble than it’s worth,” Pearl commented, glancing at Jenny,
whose face had turned red with anger. It was the first time she hadn’t said much, and witnessing her
visibly agitated brought an unexpected satisfaction.
“Why you!” Jenny realized she was outnumbered and temporarily suppressed her tears. She chose to
leave for the time being, but the resentment she felt toward Richard’s indifference and Esther’s
unyielding stance simmered within her.
One day, she would shut Esther up for good!
