Chapter 279

Millie had barely exchanged a few words with Rachel when Jake approached.

“Ladies, it’s too quiet chatting just between the two of you. Why not let me join in?” Jake suggestedwith a mischievous smile.

Millie crossed her arms and gestured toward Madison. “I saw you two were having a good chat.”

Jake glanced over at Madison and sighed. “Alas, I don’t even know her.”

“She’s the only person I know in the industry.” Jake suddenly pointed at Rachel.

Rachel, who was in the middle of eating, was taken aback by this unexpected encounter. Sheresponded with a warm smile and graciously replied, “It’s truly an honor to be remembered by you,Mr. Webson.”

Jake chuckled and leaned against the bar. He playfully commented, “Your smile seems fake.”

“There are even more fake ones. Would you like to see them?” Rachel glanced at Jake, her toneunfriendly.

Jake had been interacting with various people for many years, and his keen perception allowed himto quickly discern whether someone was treating him with hostility or respect.,

Feeling puzzled, he leaned forward and asked Rachel, “Ms. Shaw, have I ever offended you?”

Millie ate the cake as she observed them, feeling unexpectedly intrigued. Glancing to the side, shenoticed Winston surrounded by countless attractive women.

It was undeniable that his status would be highly appealing to women. With Winston present,scenes like this would always unfold, even if Joanna ended up in a relationship with him.

Joanna was different from her. Witnessing Winston being surrounded by numerous women,

she could feign ignorance.

However, her possessiveness was formidable. If Joanna were present today, this dinner partywould surely be fascinating. As Millie stopped thinking, she noticed someone entering.

“Mr. Webson, you never offended me. I simply don’t like you,” Rachel stated bluntly. She was notone to mince words. Similarly, Jake was much the same.

“I just don’t get it. We haven’t even had the chance to meet, so why do you already have an issuewith me?” Jake crossed his arms, feeling perplexed.

He wondered if this was what a woman was truly like, as there was no reason to hate a

person.

“Look who’s here,” Millie suddenly interrupted the conversation between the two.

Rachel and Jake looked over.

At that moment, Logan also walked toward the entrance.

“Isn’t she sick and in the hospital?” Jake was surprised.

“What happened to her again?” Rachel asked, taking the initiative to speak to Jake for the firsttime.

“You don’t know? Two nights ago, she argued with Winston and ended up abandoned on theroadside by him. She endured the rain all night long.

“For one whole day and night, she waited for Winston outside his house. As a result, she developeda fever last night and had to be taken to the hospital once again.”

Then, Jake sighed and continued, “I have no idea what she did. She had completely infuriatedWinston this time.”

Winston had never treated Joanna this way before. Whenever Joanna cried, he would

immediately and unconditionally give in. It was evident that Winston was genuinely angered by heractions this time.

“So, is she actually chasing him to the party and begging for forgiveness?” Rachel looked at Jake.

Jake turned his head and was captivated by Rachel’s stunning eyes. Never before had hewitnessed such breathtaking beauty in a woman’s gaze. In fact, he couldn’t shake the feeling thathe was in love.

She was undeniably attractive. It was no surprise that she had become a famous female celebrity.

“Hmm?” Rachel hummed lazily.

Jake cleared his throat to ease the awkwardness, realizing he had lost his composure. “I’m sorry.”

“It’s alright.” Rachel smiled to brush it off. After all, there were a lot of foolish men who gazed at herblankly like this.
