Chapter 309 You Have My Affection

Jessica had a grim look in her eyes when she heard her uncle say that. “I won’t let things slide! I will never let them off the hook even if it means I will have to sacrifice myself!” she notified him solemnly.

“Jessica—”

Although Oliver seemed to have more to say, Jessica hung up directly and gripped her phone in her hand.

She had almost been swayed by Wyatt’s love for her, but Oliver’s call at such a time knocked some sense into her and reminded her of the reason she dated Wyatt in the first place.

Haven’t I plotted until now to seek revenge for my sister? Why should I go soft on them?

Jessica glanced outside the window. It was snowing, so there was a thin layer of snow on the roads. She could even hear Christmas carols in the air.

It was also on a snowy day that her elder sister Bianca passed away.

There was a knock on the restroom door before Wyatt’s concerned voice came through. “Are you okay, Jessie?”

Jessica gathered her thoughts before replying, “I’m fine!”

She checked herself in the mirror, took a deep breath, and then fixed her wet hair. After making sure that nothing seemed abnormal about her, she walked over to open the restroom door.

Upon seeing the worried expression Wyatt wore while standing outside, she punched him jokingly before muttering in annoyance, “I was merely taking my time! Aren’t you worried about the other ladies’ opinion of you by coming here?”

“I was worried that you might be feeling unwell. Besides, what’s wrong with me waiting for my fiancée here? I didn’t barge in anyway,” Wyatt retorted cheekily while checking on her. “Babe, why is your hair soaked?”

Jessica lowered her gaze to glance at her hair. “Oh, I must’ve been careless when I was washing my face.”

“You dummy.” Wyatt pinched her face, removed his scarf, and wrapped it over her hair. “Let’s head to the VIP room. I’ll dry your hair with a hairdryer.”

“Nah. The mall is warm enough with the heating on. Take your scarf off.” Jessica tugged on the scarf. “It’s embarrassing to have my head all wrapped up like this. It’s dirty too.”

Wyatt held her in his embrace to stop her from making a fuss. “It’s not dirty. It’s a new one I put on before coming out. Keep it on. People can gossip all they want. What matters is that I like how you look!”
