Predestined Marriage
Chapter 1261 Quick Move

Abby was not stupid. She knew Jessica did not accept her apology.

When Abby became Jessica's agent, she thought Jessica had great potential in the industry.

After all, Jessica was a good actress, who was pretty and got Carl at her back. She would become a super star soon. The only problem was that Jessica was very arrogant and not easy to get along with. But it surprised Abby that Jessica was very nice and trusted her very much.

It was Abby's fault that she disappointed Jessica.

"I won't be your agent anymore. But you can come to me at any time if you need my help." Abby knew her apologies couldn't fix anything, so she tried hard to show her kindness.

Jessica was stunned and looked up at Abby.

Abby sighed, "Mr. Carl will be in charge of your work from now on."

A hint of mockery flashed through Jessica's eyes. "He's pretty quick on that matter."

Jessica had thought that Carl would take over her work, but she did not expect that he would replace Abby so quickly.

"Jessica..."

Jessica interrupted Abby, "I'm not angry with you. I know you have your concerns. But I have to go now."

Abby looked depressed as she saw Jessica leaving.

Jessica went back to her apartment to get changed. Then she drove to the jewelry store and bought a birthday present for Mrs. Jones.

Yesterday, Mr. Jones posted her new coat on her WeChat Moments. Jessica saw it and picked a pair of earrings for Mr. Jones to match her coat. The Hicks and Jones were old friends and neighbors. When Jessica drove back, she went straight to the Jones' instead of going back home. Before Jessica went into the house, she heard lots of people talking inside, noisy but cozy.

Carl's parents and Jessica's parents would invite many friends on their birthday. Perhaps people enjoyed gathering together when they grew older.

Apart from their birthdays, they would also invite friends over on traditional Chinese or western festivals. They were so energetic that they didn't look like senior citizens at all. Someone saw Jessica when she got in.

"The Hick girl is coming."

"Jessica."

"I haven't seen you for a long time. You look prettier..."

The Jones and Hicks had been friends for decades, so they got many shared friends. Most of people who came to Mrs. Jones' birthday party knew Jessica.

Jessica greeted them all the way through the courtyard to the hall.

When Jessica heaved a long sigh of relief, Ava came out with a glass of wine and was delighted to see her.

"Jessica."

Ava used to be a servant at the Jones' when she was very young. Ava had a good relationship with the Jones, so she knew Jessica. Jessica greeted Ava with a smile. "Ava."

The smile spread wider over Ava's face, and she said kindly, "Come in. Mrs. Jones is talking with your mother."

"I see. Thank you."

Jessica walked inside and saw Arabel and Nicole sitting together and talking.

"Mom, Mrs. Jones." Jessica walked up to them.

When Arabel saw Jessica, she stood up. "What took you so long?"

"I went to buy a present for Mrs. Jones." While saying that, Jessica walked to Nicole with a gift box.

Nicole was staring at Jessica. When Jessica walked closer, Nicole said with concerns, "Jessica, you're looking peaky."

"No, I've eaten a lot." Jessica lost some weight this month because she was too busy with her work. But she would not admit it. That would only break Nicole's heart.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
