It felt like a cruel joke from fate Jessica couldn t bring herself to believe it
Meanwhile Sienna stood frozen unable to comprehend
Halsey smiled Jessica I heard from Stanley that you were desperate to befriends with me You were so chatty earlier but now that you ve seen me you can t seem to get a word out
Halsey s at back on the s of a while Isabel and the bodyguards stood respectfully behind her She watched with amusement as Jessica s face twisted with embarrassment
Jessica clenched her fists mortified
Thinking back to her words outside the estate gates she realized how foolish she had been At the time Halsey hadn t revealed her true identity playing her like a fool

Halsey gave Sienna a sharp look I wasn t talking to you Do you think you have a right to interrupt

Jessica s face drained of color her heart sinking Halsey was flat out rejecting her and worse blocking her path of getting into the Lincoln family s good graces
