Chapter 604

“Stop making excuses! You did it on purpose just because I bumped into you!” Anahi snapped and wiped the lipstick from her face with a tissue.

Jessica crossed her arms and raised an eyebrow. “Oh, so you admit it was you who bumped into me first p>

Anahi was momentarily speechless when she realized she had fallen into Jessica’s trap.

Humiliated and enraged, she snorted coldly. “Even if I did it on purpose, so what? Who do you think you are, daring to argue with me p>

Jessica sneered and retorted, “Who are you then? An Empress? Even if you were, your time is long gone.” As she spoke, she rolled her eyes at them and stepped forward. She was fairly skilled; even if these pampered young ladies teamed up, they weren’t necessarily her match.

“You b*tch!” Anahi was furious.

Just then, she grabbed Jessica and raised her hand to slap her across the face. However, Jessica grabbed her wrist firmly and twisted it.

“Ah!” Anahi screamed as she was flung to the ground.

“Anahi! Oh my god, you are bleeding!” The woman who tried to help Anahi shouted when she saw blood trickling from Anahi’s forehead.

Looking at the scene, Jessica frowned. She hadn’t expected Anahi to be so fragile. After all, she had only lightly flicked Anahi’s hand, yet the latter had fallen and hit her head on the sink, which would make things troublesome.

Jessica instinctively stepped closer to check the situation.

In that split second, a glint flashed across Gianna’s eyes. She stepped in front of Jessica and said to her friends, “Call the police now p>

The woman beside her immediately took out her phone and glared fiercely at Jessica.

Seeing that they were actually going to call the police, Jessica frowned and said, “Is that really necessary? I can apologize and take her to the hospital p>

After all, it was her responsibility that Anahi had fallen and hit her head.

“Do we look like we can’t afford to go to the hospital?” Gianna said coldly, her disappointed gaze sweeping over Jessica.

Earlier in the private room, she had overheard Jonathan and Zane talking and realized that Anneliese would be bringing Jessica along tonight.

Jessica seducing Zane was one thing, and Gianna had assumed it was just a fling. However, she hadn’t expected that Zane would introduces Jessica to everyone. There was no way she would allow Zane to show Jessica in the open.

This year, both the Shayman and the Malone families had been pushing for a marriage between her and Zane, which meant they might be engaged soon. Hence, Gianna would not allow Zane to have another woman by his side at this moment. She had been watching Jonathan and saw him leave the private room, confirming that Anneliese and her friend had arrived.

From her perspective, Jessica was average-looking and utterly crude in personality, which she found disappointing. She wondered how Zane could tolerate Jessica.

In the meantime, Jessica also studied Gianna. By instinct, she immediately felt Gianna’s hostility toward her.

If she had not yet been certain if the Zane they spoke of was who before, she clearly knew now. She was certain that this encounter had been deliberately arranged as part of some scheme.

“I thought it was an accident, but it turns out to be staged,” Jessica said with a laugh as she looked at Gianna.

Gianna was surprised at how quickly Jessica had caught up with the situation. Still, she feigned innocence and said, “How can you blame us when you are the one who injured our friend p>

Anahi, now supported by her friends, stood up and clutched her injured forehead while glaring fiercely at Jessica.

“Gianna, there’s no point in talking to someone like this. I’m calling the police! Let’s see how stubborn she’ll be at the station p>

Realizing there was no way to smooth things over, Jessica took a step back and pulled out her phone, intending to call Zane.

Noticing her reaction, Gianna signaled to her friend, who immediately snatched Jessica’s phone.

“Give it back p>

Jessica lunged for the phone, but the woman threw it into the sink that was filled with water. The phone flickered twice before shutting down.

At that moment, the manager arrived with two security guards. Jessica and Gianna’s group were escorted to the lobby, and the police, who had been called, soon arrived.

Meanwhile, Anneliese had no idea that Jessica had already been set up in such a short time.

After a week apart from Jonathan, Anneliese had gone through many emotional shifts in that week. Now, the reunion made them grow even fonder of each other.
