Chapter 254

Third person's POV

"Catherine, will you stay for a bit longer? You are Blake's fiancee after all. I won't be afraid of her withyou by my side." Jessica pulled Catherine's arm.

Catherine pulled a wry face.

"Alright, let's go inside. Let me take a look at that woman!" Catherine patted Jessica on the shoulderwith sympathy, and also tried to comfort her.

Lillian was already here to challenge Jessica. She should fight back and not back off.

"Don't defeat yourself. Chin up. Be confident!" Catherine encouraged Jessica with a smile.

The two of them returned to the private room. Then, they heard a woman's loud laughter.

"It's her!" Jessica winked at Catherine.

Catherine looked over and was a little stunned. Lillian was around 1.7 meters tall and had a slenderand exquisite figure. She had the look that most men would prefer.

Lillian had an attractive face, and her slender, ice-blue dress made her look even more ladylike.

A woman like her would make most women feel less confident.

Even Catherine began to hope that it would be best to prevent Blake from seeing Lillian, or she wouldbe jealous.

As Catherine was lost in her thoughts, Lillian took a glass of wine and walked towards them.

Lillian's presence made Jessica tense like a kitten. She grabbed Catherine's arm tightly as if Catherinecould give her strength.

Catherine sized Lillian up with her clear eyes. Lillian's height advantage was already enough to wipeboth Catherine and Jessica out.

Lillian was curious about who Catherine was. She had just returned from abroad and did not knowmuch about things back home.

Lillian figured that Catherine was just one of Jessica's friends. Both Catherine and Jessica were young,which made Lillian feel a little jealous.

"Miss Hall, I am very sorry. I came in a hurry and did not prepare a gift. This is my business card. Youcan pick a gift you like from any of my brands." Lillian took out a blue business card from her handbagand passed it to Jessica.

Jessica gawked at the business card. She didn't expect that Lillian would use such a way to attack her.

Catherine nudged Jessica.

"Catherine." Jessica had no idea whether she should take Lillian's business card or not.

Catherine knew that Jessica was out of her wits at this moment. She sighed in silence, wondering howJessica had ever managed to become an actress in the first place. For now, all Jessica had to do wasplay along with Lillian and not take things too seriously.

"Thank you. Let me take it for Jessica for now. I wonder what the brands are. Will you tell me moreabout them?" Catherine smiled and threw back a question.

Lillian's lips curved up slightly, and she proudly introduced the brands that she owned.

Catherine knew these brands, but she must take Jessica's side. So she said indifferently, "I'm afraid Idon't know any of the brands that you mentioned. Jessica is my friend, and I know her style. Thesebrands don't quite suit her since she is still a young lady. I guess your brands are customized formature women, right?"

Lillian's elegant face darkened instantly.

She looked at Catherine with a trace of contempt. "Is that so? These are already international brands.How come you've never heard of them? Unless... You can't afford them."

Jessica felt great when she heard Catherine's words. And now, hearing that Lillian was tauntingCatherine, she no longer wanted to be a coward. She imitated Catherine's indifferent tone and said,"Ms. Watson, I don't think you know who she is yet. There is no way she could not afford to buy yourproduct. They are simply not good enough for her. You know what? I think it's the other way around.You can't afford to use the products she uses."

Catherine turned to look at Lillian, who started to fight back. Catherine chuckled.

Lillian sized Catherine up. Catherine was wearing common luxury, she raised her eyebrows and said,"Oh, really? Then, maybe you should introduce yourself."

Jessica was about to speak, but Leo's indifferent voice came from behind Lillian. "Lillian, do you have aproblem with my brother's fiancee?"

Lillian turned around and saw Leo. She was shocked.

Leo stood beside Catherine. He revealed a hint of displeasure when he looked at Lillian. "It's Jessica'sbirthday party. Why are you here? You are not her friend, are you?"

Lillian looked at Catherine in shock, her eyes filled with disbelief. "Leo, is she Blake's fiancee?"

Lillian knew Catherine's name, but she had never met her in person. Therefore, she regardedCatherine as a mere nobody, meddling in other people's business.

Catherine was a little surprised that Leo would back them up.

"Boss, you are right. She's not a friend and I didn't invite her here. Since you know her, will you keepher company for me?" Jessica was not afraid of troubling Leo.

Since she knew that Cedrick had already told Leo to watch out for her.

Lillian knew she had screwed up. She wanted to show off, yet she offended Blake's fiancee. She waswell aware that Blake was more than capable of making all her brands disappear at once.

"Sorry, I might have come to the wrong place!" Lillian no longer dared to stay here. She took herhandbag, lowered her head, and quickly walked towards the door.

Jessica watched Lillian leave dejectedly and hugged Catherine. "Catherine, thank you so much. Finally,we got rid of her!"

Leo stood next to them and said lightly, "I deserve some credits too. Don't forget to remind Cedrick toinvest more in our company!"

Jessica smiled while looking at Leo, "Of course. If Cedrick and I get together someday, I'll repay you forsure!"

"Seriously? Do I have to wait till you two get together? How long will that take? Maybe... in the nextlife!" Leo shrugged and joked.

"What did you say..." Jessica was so angry that her face turned red.

Leo chuckled. "Just kidding. Don't take it seriously."

Jessica stuck her tongue out at him and made a face.

Catherine was amused by Jessica's childish behavior.
