Chapter 86

The waiter maintained a polite demeanor, saying, “Miss, the building behind me is only accessible to our VIP guests. Please understand.”

“VIP guests?”

The area in front of Jessica was reserved exclusively for VIP clients.

Ashley could enter, but Jessica couldn’t.

This was a direct blow to Jessica’s vanity, which was something she couldn’t tolerate.

Jessica then glared fiercely at the waiter blocking her path, feeling increasingly frustrated.

She hadn’t seen the man embracing Ashley yet and was far from ready to give up.

Jessica thought about calling Matthew to come over.

David was one of her suitors. He came from a notable family, but he was unattractive and notorious for his philandering ways, surrounded by many women, which was why Jessica had no interest in such a man.
