Chapter 290: Let’s Get Married
Jessie listens to it quietly. Although she is not as calm as she looks.
Victor once told her that all Ixora plants were ruined. Plus that John’s health condition was worsening,
she had been feeling sorry for John. Such kind of a feeling reached its peak when she met him in the
ball room.
It turns out that five Ixora plants are saved.
John’s life would be spared!
“Wow, Mr. Justin’s research team is really awesome. They will definitely make success in it!” Jessie
praises Justin’s team while pondering how to deliver this piece of news to Victor.
Leigh feels jealous and retorts, “It’s true that Justine is awesome. But it relies on the hundreds of
millions of funds we invested. He could only spend money. He’s even inferior to me!”
“Well, well, you’re the best.” Jessie waves her hand, “Get up and take a shower.”
“Honey, you’re the one who cares me the most!” Leigh is very touched and pounces over to kiss her, “I
will wash myself with fragrant body wash. Wait for me. I’ll warm up the bed for you.”
Jessie pushes him away.
When Leigh walks into the bathroom, she gets off the bed quickly, walks over the table, picks up a pen,
and writes down several words on a pad paper. She then tears the sheet from the pad and puts it into a
bag of chips.
She calls the restaurant of this hotel through the interior wiring and tells them to send over some food
as she’s hungry, and then shouts towards the bathroom, “Leigh, I’m calling them for some food. Would
you like anything?”
“I’m okay with any food.”
Jessie gives him a simple reply. When she ends the call, she secretly inserts another SIM card into the
phone and texts a person with a name ‘Z’ in the address book.
When she receives a line of phone numbers dozens of seconds later, she immediately deletes the
message and changes the SIM card.
As the food they ordered is still on the way, Leigh has taken a shower. He pounces onto the bed and
rubs against Jessie like a puppy.
If Jessie is not that agile, she would have been stripped.
“Don’t think of dirty things every time.” Jessie kicks him away and says furiously, “The photo I saw in
the noon has caused serious psychic trauma to me. I have a psychological shadow now.”
“I deleted all of them. Really. None of them is left.” Leigh vows solemnly. In order to prove himself, he
even hands her the phone for a check-up, “I also deleted their WeChat contacts. There are only a few
important cooperative partners in my WeChat contact list.”
Jessie looks askance at him, “Why do I have a feeling that you’re doing these out of your guilty
conscience.”
“Oh, Jesus, you wrong me, Honey. I didn’t mean it.”
“Your creditworthiness is quite bad in my eyes.” Jessie pouts.
Now that he has handed her his phone, she would definitely have a check-up.
All the photos of those famous models have been deleted. Leigh seems to have an intention to play up
to her and has saved her photos. When she opens the WeChat, she finds that he has chosen her
photo as the background of their dialog box and the person on the cover of his Moments is also her.
Leigh grins, “See, I’ve reformed myself, right?”
“Not bad.”
Jessie is relatively satisfied. When she’s about to return the phone to him, she finds a notification of
‘New Friends’. She stuns at the moment, clicks the notification and then the profile photo, and finds that
it’s a friending request from a stunning beauty.
The remarks of the friending request are: Mr. Leigh, we’ve met on the ML Show on May.
“This…I…” Leigh is lost for words at the moment and wears an innocent look, “I didn’t know her, really.”
“She said she met you on the ML Show. Now you said you didn’t know her?” Jessie sneers and
confirms the friending request of the woman called Jana. She then texts her: [Sorry, I have no
impression of this.]
Jana replies: [Mr. Leigh, you forgot it? I wore a black velvet long dress that day. You praised me for my
long legs and gave me your name card, asking me to add your WeChat later. I’m really sorry. I was too
busy recently.]
She then sends him a photo of her fair, long and impeccable legs.
Some of her private part is also exposed.
Jana texts: [I heard that Mr. Leigh is very generous and kind to girls. Are you in Yorkshire now? I’ll
come back to Yorkshire next month. Mr. Leigh, can you treat me a meal?”
“Leigh Lewis!” Jessie slams the phone onto the bed, shoots Leigh a glance that is full of killing
intentions, and says with her teeth gritted, “What the fuck. What did you say just now? You didn’t know
her? Huh?”
“It happened on June or July. I really can’t remember it…” Leigh touches his nose and brings her into
his arms while saying in a pitiful tone, “It’s the past. Now I love you only. I love my Honey so much!”
“Fuck off!”
“Honey, please don’t be angry with me. Please, forgive me.”
Leigh is really a cheeky person. And he’s now fully exerting this quality. He clings to Jessie to coax her
and pulls her closer, but Jessie keeps pushing him away.
The doorbell rings. Leigh immediately gets off the bed, “It’s the food we ordered. I will go and take it.”
“I’ll go by myself. Get away.” Jessie throws the phone to him furiously, “Register for a new account. If
you fail to handle this properly this time, I will…”
She waves her fist at him.
Leigh smiles ingratiatingly, “Rest assured. Honey, I will handle this properly! I promise.”
Jessie casts her eyes heavenward. When she leaves the bedroom, she takes away the bag of chips
casually. She opens the door and sees the waiter in a uniform standing outside of the door.
“Ms. Jessie, good evening.” The waiter greets Jessie, “Here’s the food you ordered.”
After finishing the words, the waiter mouths the alphabet ‘Z’.
Jessie nods and gives way for him.
“Come in please.”
The waiter puts all the foods on the fining car onto the table, and Jessie secretly hands him the bag of
chips.
Just as the transaction is finished, Leigh walks out of the bedroom.
Leigh walks over while fixating his gaze on the photo, saying, “Little Fairy, I would like to use the
abbreviation of your name and your birthday as my WeChat account. What do you think of it?”
“Ms. Jessie, these are all the foods you order. Enjoy.” The waiter then leaves the room quickly.
Jessie heaves a sigh of relief. She replies Leigh sulkily, “No! Don’t use my name. It would be very
awkward if we break up!”
“How will we break up? Honey, I love you so much!” Leigh leans on her shoulder and smirks, “You wore
the ring I bought for you, so you’re my woman. Other men have no chance to get you.”
“It’s just an engagement, not a marriage. They are many changes in life.”
“Little Fairy, I’m serious.” Leigh blinks at her and says in a serious tone, “Now that you want to have a
marriage so much, let’s select a date for wedding when we’re back.”
“What?” Jessie thinks she must have been misheard it.
“I said, let’s get married.”
Leigh wears a serious look with firmness in his eyes. Jessie’s heart misses one beat and she feels
quite complicated.
She knows Leigh well. He’s smart and is good at making money. But he also shares the bad manners
that many silver-spoon kids would have: he likes having fun. Her way of doing things, including her
characteristics, are all customized according to his preference.
But now, he told her that he wanted to marry her in a serious tone.
Jessie has expected that this would happen one day. But when he really says this, plus his serious Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
look, she thinks that this man is really silly and easy.
He has just known her for half a year and even has no idea about her family background. But he now
wants to marry her?
