Chapter 531 Dagger

When the servers brought their dishes, Jennifer cleverly changed the topic. “Try this out, June. The food in this restaurant is pretty good and authentic. You’re a foreigner, so you should definitely give these a try. Maybe you’ll learn to love it.”

June picked up his fork and tried a bit of everything from the dishes laid out. “Not bad.”

“Are you going to stay in Chanaea from now on?”

“I don’t think we’re close enough for me to answer that question, Ms. Larson.”

“I’m simply curious because I want to know why a foreigner like you is willing to do so much for Ms. Yard, yet you still can’t make her look in your direction. I heard she had been camping at the Clinton Corporations for a couple of days now, like a homeless stray that no one wanted. It’s quite pitiful, really. Aren’t you going to play the part of a hero and save her?”

Her words were like a bomb exploding inside his head.

His expression turned extremely dark. “You know, it’s quite despicable to reveal people’s scars sometimes. Don’t act as though you know me very well. I’m leaving right now. Consider this meal my treat.”

He immediately stood up and tried to leave. Jennifer, on the other hand, calmly spoke. “Is that all it takes to piss you off, June? Seems like you don’t handle being upset that well.”

That caused him to return to his chair.

 

“Oscar played with your woman and abandoned her, June. Now she can’t even get pregnant. Are you really okay with this? If I’m you, I sure as hell won’t be. Of course, your attitude dictates your actions because you foreigners have a different way of thinking compared to Chanaeans.” She waved her hand.

He pulled out a cigarette, lit it, put it into his mouth, and puffed out smoke. The stench of the cigarette entered Jennifer’s nose. She furrowed her eyebrows, though she didn’t stop him from continuing to do that.

“What’s your plan?” June puffed out smoke again.

“I have the same goal as you. If we want to crush Oscar, we need to start with the woman he loves. I think you’re doing a better job than me on that front.” She grabbed a bite of vegetables, put it into her mouth, and chewed slowly.

He kept smoking cigarettes instead of eating. “You hate Oscar? I didn’t find a woman called Jennifer having any sort of affair with him in my investigation.”

“That’s because I didn’t. However, if your mother was driven insane by him, you’ll know how I feel.” She didn’t hide the truth. “The enemy of my enemy is my friend. I have people in Amelia’s company. So, if we work together, I don’t believe we can’t ruin her reputation forever.”

“No wonder there’s a saying in Chanaea that women are wicked. Seems like it’ll be my best call not to offend women here.”

“Men are the ones who spread that saying. If you ask any women, they’ll say men are wicked. After all, there are times when men are so wicked that they can cut off all of their connections to achieve their goal.”

June stayed silent.

Both of them had an unpleasant lunch before exiting the building. Jennifer showed him the pictures on her phone. “Say, if Ms. Yard sees these pictures, do you think she’ll get jealous, June? I’m telling you. You can’t always treat women nicely when you’re trying to court one. You need to make them moderately jealous so they’ll only keep you in mind. Besides, Amelia is her nemesis. If you change your mind and chase after her nemesis, I bet she’ll get jealous, even if she doesn’t want to. Consider this my gift. What do you say? Wanna make a bet with me?”
