Hatred instantly flashed past Jake's eyes. So she hasn't forgotten about them, huh?Could it be... Is she really that eager to regain her memories and go back to them?
Jake clenched his fists as his gaze turned sharp. Oh, my dear Joan. Even after everything, I still can't get your heart, huh?
"Well, that depends on you. If you want them to come to our wedding, then we'll send them an invitation," replied Jake.
"Were you not planning on inviting them? Are they not your friends?"
Of course not! thought Jake, who was trying to suppress his emotions, They are and will always be my enemy.
"I know them, but we're not close," answered Jake with a smile. A strange glow was hidden within that smile, though.
Joan didn't know why, but she was scared when dealing with the man in front of her.
At that moment, everyone looked nervous as they strategized inside Larry's office.
"Hey, what's going on? Why is everyone here?" asked Della as she entered the room. She looked ever so excited and gleeful.
This b*tch! She must have some malicious intentions for coming over, thought Jessica as she glared over. After that, she turned her head and ignored Della completely.
"What are you doing here?" demanded Larry directly and in a hostile voice.
"I came to see how you're doing. I heard that you have been busy looking for Joan lately," commented Della in an amused tone.
Her words got everyone to turn their attention to her. Does she know something we don't? Jessica sprang up instantly. Anticipation donned her face.
"What did you hear? Tell us!" demanded Jessica without holding back.
Della walked to the sofa and sat down. She looked proud when she opened her purse and fished an invitation card out of it.
"Here. Jake just sent me an invitation to his wedding. What's wrong? Did you not get yours?" asked Della. She had her eyes on Larry and deliberately kept her voice loud when she spoke.
Wow, they're moving fast! Larry snatched the invitation card from her and examined it carefully. As promised, the names written on the car were Jake's and Joan's.
