Melissa clung to his arm and deliberately leaned against him as she asked worriedly, "When did you return, Jessica? Why didn't you come home? Dad has been missing you like crazy! By the way, the Gulliford family will be having a banquet tomorrow night. Trevor and his parents will be present. Will you be coming too, Jessica?"
Her coquettish act formed a huge contrast to her vicious behavior back in prison.
"I..." Jessica was about to turn her down, but nodded obediently when she saw the look on Trevor's face. "Okay."
In order to ensure her survival, she had to attend that banquet even if the Jackson residence would be filled with dangerous people.
"Great! I'm sure Dad will be really happy!" Melissa exclaimed happily like an innocent little girl.
She was indeed really happy as she would get to witness Jessica's suffering.
That was especially the case since Jessica had caused the death of Samantha, so Trevor's parents would
never let her off the hook.
Having recalled something, Melissa added, "Since we're all here, how about you help Trevor and I pick out a wedding ring? We've spent a lot of time trying to find a nice one, but to no avail.
Even Old Mr. Gulliford has joined us to help out today, so will you come with us too?"
Jessica tightened her grip on the magazine in her hands. She could tell that Melissa was trying to spite her with how much Maximilian valued their marriage.
However, Jessica couldn't care less about that at all. The only thing that mattered to her was her children.
"Someone get Ms. Jackson to accompany my fiancee while she picks out a wedding ring!"
Trevor ordered coldly while glaring at Jessica, who had escaped the house.
