Wait, She’s a Billionaire by Ms. Shadow

Chapter 69

Vanessa was about to question Jennifer when Kennedy and Elijah walked over.

Seeing the reassuring figure, Jennifer rushed toward him in tears. “Eli…”

Elijah glanced at her without saying anything. No one could read his expression under the dim lighting.

Kennedy noticed Jennifer’s disheveled appearance and asked, “What happened?”

The gathered guests joined in explaining. Although their words were somewhat biased toward Jennifer, they refrained from saying anything too harsh, given Skye’s reputation and Sheena’s stunning performance.

After getting a rough idea, Kennedy understood the situation. He smiled and reassured the guests to continue enjoying the night. After briefly comforting Jennifer, he then returned to the hall with the other guests.

Jennifer sobbed as she reached for Elijah’s hand, gently leaning on him and looking pitiful.” Eli, please don’t blame Sheena. She’s probably upset about our engagement.”

Elijah looked at Jennifer and asked coldly, “What did you say to her?”

Caught off guard by his question, Jennifer noticed that he was displeased, so she quickly explained, “We’re about to get engaged. I just wanted her to give us her blessing. I didn’t expect her to be angry and splash me with wine.”
