Chapter 279 Back at You
“You were saying if someone picked her up, you would…?”
Jessie’s countenance turned gloomy. She was relieved she hadn’t made a vow just now.
She let out a cough and said, “I was going to say, if someone picks Cherise up, I-I’ll apologize to her.”
Then, she quickly yielded. “Sorry, Cherise! I shouldn’t have mocked you just now.”
“Hmm?” Damien lifted his head to realize Mr. Kolson and Mandy were present. He glanced at Mandy coldly. “What a coincidence. Ms. Wool is here too.”
Once again, the scene fell silent.
Because of Jessie’s flattery, everyone thought Damien and Mandy were in a passionate relationship. However, it turned out that Damien personally drove to pick Cherise up. If Jessie had kept quiet, he wouldn’t have noticed Mandy’s presence.
He didn’t appear to care for Mandy at all, let alone thoughtfully lending her the car and the
driver.
In contrast to the others who were astonished, Mandy was calmer, as she had expected this. outcome. She smiled at Damien courteously. “Yeah. Cherise and I were in the same class. So, we’re waiting for our rides here after class.”
“I see. You should go home soon.”
Then, Damien glanced at Jessic. “Miss, did you say you mocked my wife just now?” His deep, magnetic voice was filled with threat.
Pressing her lips, Jessie was a bundle of nerves. “I-I’m just joking with Cherise.”
Damien lowered his head to look at the harmless, innocent girl, knowing he couldn’t get an answer from her. She was kind and forgiving.
So, he looked at Lucy and asked, “What happened just now?”
Lucy narrowed her eyes revengefully and told Damien what had happened.
