"I don't know what you're talking about." Jessica tore her gaze away from Cynthia. She was all frustrated and flustered. Cynthia was a sharp woman. It was said that beautiful women were brainless. But this beautiful woman in front of her was by no means a fool.
"You of course know what I'm talking about. I'm talking about your purpose of seeing me here. Tell me why you asked to see me." Cynthia wasn't afraid of coming here alone as she was fully aware that she was well protected. Her bodyguards were posted around her and hid quite skillfully. It was impossible for the so called Miss Xue to set her up. She just came here to figure out who this Miss Xue was. No one dared to threat her. But this Miss Xue, who even threatened her with Daisy's life, seemed to be an exception. She was either ignorant or reckless in posing such a threat. Cynthia was really curious who this Miss Xue was and why she was so fearless in challenging Jonathan's wife. That was the reason why she came here.
"Since you knew what I was doing, why did you come?" Jessica asked plainly. She didn't bother hiding her plan, since she'd already been found out. As Cynthia had come alone, Jessica was confident that Cynthia would never escape the strong thugs she'd hired. In fact, Jessica intended to get Cynthia and Jonathan both. But she didn't dare to do anything to Jonathan. She had learned from the time she met this man at the anniversary party that he was a dreadful enemy. However, she was sure that if Cynthia died, that would give the Mu clan everlasting pain and suffering. Jessica didn't know how much Jonathan loved his wife until recently. He treated Cynthia like the queen of his heart. What would become of Jonathan if he lost his beloved wife forever? Edward was proud of his family, of his amiable parents and his beloved wife. Would his perfect family stay intact if his mother vanished from the face of the earth?
Daisy was a superb soldier. The last time she tried to attack Daisy, Jessica failed. So she decided to go after Cynthia instead. She thought that no one would even figure out what she was doing until it was too late. Jessica was quite confident that she would not fail in dealing with an old woman. Cynthia was beautiful with feminine charm. But it was unacceptable for Jessica that there was another woman who was more beautiful than her. Jessica wanted to destroy everything that was prettier than her.
You're bat-shit crazy, Jessica. If you had told me who you were earlier over the phone, I would never have come here. You really think that we have tons of time to waste like you?" Cynthia tidied her hair while speaking to Jessica. Although she was getting old, her beautiful face was not wrinkled by time. She looked exactly the same as she was young. Everyone wanted to stay young as long as possible. But not everyone would have that wish come true. As one of the few women favored by Lady Luck, Cynthia's beauty and charm could still win the hearts of men, and arouse jealousy in the hearts of women. With the passing of time, Cynthia's maturity had added to her natural air of grace and nobility.
"Mrs. Mu, stop pissing me off. Whatever you say will do you no good. Don't you see that there is no one around us? You see some men in the cafe, of course. But those are my people. So, you know what will happen." Jessica glanced at Cynthia arrogantly, expecting her to be scared.To her surprise, Cynthia still retained that graceful smile and stared at her with an unmatched calmness.
"So what will it be this time? Will you ruin my face like you ruined Daisy's? But I wonder why you picked me. Wasn't it enough that you left scars on Daisy's face? You want to take it out on me this time?" Cynthia turned and took a look at her surroundings. She knew the risks and came here prepared. Even if she had known Miss Xue was Jessica in advance, she still would not be afraid of coming here alone.
"I told you, Mrs. Mu, be careful of your daughter-in-law. She may drag you into an abyss of suffering. You see, what you will suffer is all because of her. You need to pay the price for the pain your daughter-in-law brought to me." Jessica clapped after finishing speaking. Suddenly, a gang of strong men gathered behind her. Jessica had prepared for this moment a long time. But how stupid she was to overestimate herself and underestimate others. It was silly to use the same trick twice. But it was obviously beyond Jessica's ability to realize how true that was.
"Jessica, it seems you are only capable of poisoning and renting the whole cafe to carry out your plan of revenge. This is all old hat. Do something different. All your plans are outdated. If I were you, I would find a handsome guy and find a way to trap me with his charms. That might work on me. Don't you agree?" Cynthia was being monitored. As soon as she spoke those words, Jonathan flew into a rage. How could he retain his reverence as father in front of Edward and Daisy if this tape got out? So Jonathan locked Cynthia in their room after today to prevent this from happening, until people forgot hearing it.
"You're very calm. That's not strange. You and Daisy are the same kind of people. You're cold-blooded with hearts of stone. Did you think about your husband when you said such a sick thing? You're a mother. What a good example you have set for your daughter-in-law!You are no better than a bitch." Jessica twitched her mouth to show her contempt for Cynthia. It was beyond her expectation that such a dignified woman would have such an abject idea and would even speak it out.
"Bitch? Jessica, do you think it is a fault to be fond of a beautiful face? So, Jessica, do you mean you don't like good-looking men? Then what do you think of my son? Do you think he is handsome or not? If he's not handsome, why did you fall in love with him instead of picking some ordinary guy? And you have gone crazy for him!" A mocking smile broke across Cynthia's face. What a stupid woman Jessica was! She was teasing Jessica and she was totally falling for it.Jessica didn't know what true love was. She'd never understood the faithfulness of lovers. She didn't even try to understand why Cynthia loved her husband. Nor did she understand Cynthia's love toward her husband. Cynthia just said those words to paint Jessica as a whore. But Jessica was foolish enough to misunderstand it. Jonathan was charming. In Cynthia's opinion, no other men were more enchanting than Jonathan. Her husband was the only one to whom she was willing to surrender her heart.
