The Deserted Rich Beauty novel Chapter 178

Luna was still overwhelmed by Kai's sudden outburst and had not returned to her senses.

Hearing Nicole's words, she looked up, dumbfounded.

Everyone was staring at her.

The silence was intense and very strange.

Even if she was slow-witted, she could realize that something was wrong.

'Jenny told me about their marriage alliance and even showed me a photo of her father and Mr. Ferguson together... Isn't that solid evidence?'

Luna looked to Jenny for help. "Jenny..."

At this moment, Jenny looked at Eric Ferguson and saw that he did not have any intention to help her.

Eric even let Nicole question her like this in front of so many people.

This crowd was not the same as gossip columnists and need not press for questions.

Their silence was already humiliating enough.

Jenny bit her lower lip and tried to make up an excuse to alleviate the awkwardness. "Perhaps... It's a misunderstanding between the elders. It’s just a joke, s o please don't take it seriously, Ms. Stanton and Mr. Ferguson..."

Kai could not help but let out a cold laugh.

He sneered unceremoniously. "So, it's a fake? People nowadays even impersonate other people's fiancee, huh? The standard for liars these days is really getting lower..."

Jenny’s face turned pale as she was called a liar.

She was a celebrity, so if this got out to the media, it would be troublesome.

Before Jenny could defend herself, Nicole yawned. Kai saw this and immediately took over her purse.

He then wrapped his arm around her shoulders and cast a sidelong glance at the people around him.

"Let’s go home. We shouldn’t meddle in these people's affairs..."

Nicole nodded and looked at Julie. "Are you coming with?"

"Of course.” Julie took her things and followed them out.

After the trio left, Jenny wanted to salvage her impression in Eric's mind. She walked over and spoke hesitantly, "Mr. Ferguson, I only heard my family talking about our marriage. I wanted to wait for things to settle down..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Eric coldly interrupted her. "There’s no such thing. Don't overthink it."

These words were like a bucket of cold water that landed on Jenny's head.

It completely doused her fantasies.

Their marriage alliance would never happen.

Jenny's face was ashen as she watched Eric chase after Nicole without the slightest expression. 'Nicole...'

"Jenny, what are you afraid of? Why would Eric care s o much about that woman?" Luna could not help but ask.

Luna was vexed. 'The revered Kai personally changed Nicole’s shoes for her? I hate her!!’

Hearing Luna's words, Jenny instantly clenched her fingers.

She laughed and explained to Jenny with a deliberately amplified voice, "I'm not afraid. In fact, I have the same thoughts as Mr. Ferguson and don't want to get married yet. My career's still on the rise, and so many directors are asking me to act in their films. There's just too much pressure from our families about the marriage alliance. At least now I don't have to worry about offending Mr. Ferguson..." 2
