Chapter 63 No Longer Afraid of Anything

Ten minutes later, Anna quickly went to Ally after hearing that the latter had gotten into trouble.

A few of the employees from MON & Co. were there, including Sally. All of them were trying to calm Ally down, but she held her luggage tightly, not letting go of it no matter what they said.

“I want to go home, and I’ve already bought the tickets. Don’t even think of stopping me!”

Knowing her background, Anna quickly flashed them a look.

“I’ll handle this.”

Sally was the last to leave, and she asked before walking out of the door, “Should I stay? She doesn’t look good. If anything happens, you will have another person to help you.”

Anna nodded. “Sure. I’ll take a look at her then.”

As soon as she walked over, Ally yelled hysterically, “Don’t stop me! I want to go home! I can’t stay here for another second!”

“Sure. Of course you can go home. I’ll explain everything to the company on your behalf, but you have to tell me the reason. Did you get into a fight with the others?” Anna asked patiently.

She had overheard the incident on the plane.

If Ally really hates Jean, I can use some tactics to switch Jean away.

Ally bit her lips, but as soon as she remembered the expression on Jean’s face when she gave the warning, Ally immediately jolted.

“No!” she yelled. “I’m just homesick. Let me go!”

She almost resorted to begging Anna while weeping.

Just as they were in the middle of this commotion, someone knocked on the door.

Ben was standing next to a waiter outside the door.

Sally opened the door and turned around to look at Ally. “Is this your friend?”

With tears still on her face, Ally immediately covered herself in the blanket as soon as she saw Ben. “Don’t come here, Ben. I’m too ugly now! Let me recollect myself before meeting you later.”

“O-Okay…” he replied in confusion and walked to the room he had just checked in to.

He was here to give Jean a surprise, so he asked Ally about the hotel they were staying in. Apart from that, Ally had dressed up to go to the airport to pick him up just now.

However, because of Jean’s threats, she did not even dare to walk out of the room after that.

Once the door closed, Ally calmed down slightly.

Ben really is here. If he knows the truth about Jean, would he still court her? Ally clenched her fists around the sheets. Even if he is still into her, I bet his family wouldn’t want a woman with a criminal record.

With that thought in mind, she found some of her confidence.

In a low voice, she said, “Anna, I don’t want to go back anymore, but I’d like to go to fashion week. Can you buy the tickets for me?”

I want to let Jean know that I’m the daughter of the prestigious Sans family, and I’m the only woman who is good enough for Ben.

The tickets for fashion week had a VIP price. Some socialites would walk down the red carpet with branded gowns because it was something new to them.

Hence, Ally’s request was considered reasonable.

“You’re like my younger sister. Since you asked for my help, I’ll get a ticket for you no matter what! Of course, I’ll make sure that it’s a good spot!” Anna smiled at her.

With her reassurance, Ally felt a lot better.

Since fashion week was about to start the next day, Anna quickly brought her phone out to ask about the tickets, leaving Sally in the room to witness how Ally touched up her makeup and changed into an expensive dress.

After she was done, there was no trace of her hysteria from moments ago.

“If my friends ask what was wrong with me, just tell them that I was not feeling well. Don’t tell them about anything else, understand?” Ally said in a commanding tone.

“Sure. Since you are fine now, I’ll take my leave. I have some other work to carry on.”

“Wait!” Ally looked at her before asking through gritted teeth, “Where is Jean?”

Sally frowned. Doesn’t she usually call her more affectionately’?

“Where is she?”

“Anna arranged some work for her just now, so I think she is busy now.” With that, Sally could not be bothered with Ally anymore and left.

The only reason she stayed just now was because both of them were interns. If Ally wanted to go back first, she might also be affected.

Meanwhile, Ally sat in the room and admired her beautiful reflection in the mirror with a smile. “A resentful woman who was deserted by another man can never match my standards!”

It was true that Jean was busy at this moment. Following the sequence on the name list, she knocked on every door and spoke to the female celebrities respectfully and professionally.

“Ms. Chance’s necklace has a golden flower as an ornament, giving an air of our local culture. It matches her evening gown for tomorrow. As for the bracelet, I’ll talk to the designer again to replace a suitable match. Personally, I think a bracelet with some jade elements would be nice. What do you think?”

“Ms. Chance?” the assistant asked.

Melody Chance, a female celebrity who was laying on the reclining couch, shot a glance at Jean before smiling at her.

“You are very efficient. I’ll hand this over to you.”

“Thanks, Ms. Chance. I’ll give you an answer by 8PM today.” With that, she took a note on her paper. “I’ll take my leave first so I won’t interrupt your rest.”

She turned around to walk to the door, but Melody suddenly called her. “You are Jean, aren’t you?”

Jean had a bad feeling about this, but she turned around and smiled. “That’s right.”

Melody stood from the couch. Her slender figure was very elegant-looking. With a shawl around her shoulders, she walked to Jean. “Aren’t you mad that instead of being a rich man’s wife, you have to work as an intern at a design company?”

Jean’s temples throbbed, but she replied, “I don’t understand you, Ms. Chance.”

Melody beamed. “It’s nothing. I have a feeling that we will meet again.”

With that, she turned around and took a glass of wine before walking to the balcony.

Jean walked away with her words replaying in her thoughts.

As the breeze caressed Melody’s hair, she finished the contents of the glass in a gulp. “Jean Eyer, Royden Group…”

The last person on the list was Gigi’s assistant, Linda.

Standing in front of the door, she jotted down the room number and instantly made a remark.

‘Not in the room.’

After that, she left immediately.

As soon as she walked out of the elevator, she saw Sally waiting for her in front of her room.

“What’s up?”

Sally wanted to say something, but she looked hesitantly at Jean for a while.

“If you have something to tell me, just shoot away. Otherwise, I’m going to close the door,” Jean said with a frown as she was quite tired. Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org

“I’ll come in then.” Sally felt sorry for her after seeing that she knew nothing.

Jean did not understand her intentions, so she frowned as she closed the door.

“Jean, you helped me out at work once, so I’d like to return the favor.” After giving it a thought, Sally told her what she saw at the cafe just now.

A few minutes later, Jean asked calmly, “So, according to Ally, I’m about to be sued by the local police?”

Sally was shocked to see her reaction.

“Aren’t you worried?”

Jean poured a glass of water for herself.

“There’s nothing to worry about.”

Sally bit her lips. “You don’t have anyone you know here, unlike Ally, whose father has a lot of business partners in this region. If she is the witness, you might be sued by the local municipality because you injured that man. When that happens, it would be difficult for you to go back to Yorktown.”

Be it getting detained and leaving behind a criminal record, or being deported back to her home country, neither was good for her.

Jean gulped down the glass of water and said coolly, “I already have a criminal record. I’m not afraid of anything anymore.”
