Chapter 67
With a sly smile on her face, Jenny said, “I won’t tell you now, I’ll keep it a secret.”
The suits were packed in a very beautiful gift box.
When Jenny went to pay the bill, Penny frowned, and deep down in her heart, she actually liked the suit from the first moment she saw it.
A man like Jerome, who usually only wore black suits, would definitely look especially classy and phenomenal if he wore this blue suit, and not so old-fashioned.
But in what purpose and under what name should it be given to him?
Penny bit her lips and hesitated.
Jenny had already paid for the suit, and when she left the door, she handed the suit in the gift box to Penny.
“Just did you a favour, I bought it for you with Barret’s money.”
“For me?” Penny was naturally surprised.
“We’ve known each other for so many years, although now you’re busy, mostly filming, and the two of us don’t have much time to get together. But whatever is in your mind, I can still read it.” Jenny hit the nail on the head.
“That day I was going to ask you, are you and Jerome together?”
“No,” Penny answered in a crisp manner.
“Although I’m not very clear what kind of relationship we actually belong to now, there’s one thing I’m sure of, we definitely don’t count as a normal relationship like boyfriend and girlfriend.”
“Jenny, I’m in a mess right now, even I am not sure what it is between us now.”
Jenny handed the suit to Penny. “If you like him, it’s worth a try.”
“Although I’ve been hurt by love so deeply, Jenny, I still think it’s very rare to meet someone you adore in your youth. Some people may not be able to meet someone they like in their whole life, and some, when they do. meet, they miss out because they are too timid and afraid.”
“Maybe my ending wasn’t perfect, my marriage wasn’t perfect, but I still feel very lucky to have loved someone.
without any regrets, and I don’t regret it, really, not at all.”
“If I were to say one thing that I regret, I just regret that the person I love is Barret Smith.”
“So, Penny, if you really like Jerome, give yourself a chance. Jerome is so much better than Barret, at least his heart is pure, and he’s loyal and exclusive.”
Not so with Barret Smith. He was too complicated.
Long before Jenny came into his world, his heart had already been filled with other women.
So then, no matter how much she did or how well she did, she could only be defined by Barret as an intruder. “Jenny……”
Penny was about to say that, in fact, Jerome Cook was more complicated than Jenny had imagined.
But as the words came to her lips, she stopped them.
Jenny had already got so much going on in her life right now, and Penny couldn’t get Jenny bothered with her own stuff.
“What’s wrong?” Seeing that Penny didn’t carry on speaking, Jenny asked.
Penny shook her head and smiled. “Nothing, don’t worry, I’ll protect myself.”
“OK.”
About ten minutes later, Penny received the retouched pictures of Jenny.
When she saw the pictures, she couldn’t believe her eyes.
Gorgeous, absolutely gorgeous.
Her photography was already very skilled, and Jenny was also pretty enough, so it wasn’t difficult to take some decent photos.
But after all, it was taken by a mobile phone, and the lighting and other things were not professional at all.
After the fine retouching, the result was immediately different. It could totally rival the posters from the international blockbuster.
“Wow, Jenny, you should be in the entertainment industry too, let’s start a girl group! That will stun the whole world.” Penny said excitedly.
Jenny hadn’t reacted yet and felt a little confused.
Penny immediately sent Jenny a few photos that had just finished retouching.
Jenny looked at herself in the pictures and couldn’t believe it, marvelling, “Is this really me?”
“Of course, it has to be!”
“Penny, how did you get it done?”
“Had my own retoucher done it,” Penny replied.
“Penny, you’re simply incredible!”
Penny immediately sent all the pictures to Barret.
“All right, let’s wait for the good news.”
Jenny looked over just in time to see Penny sending these pictures to Barret.
“What’s the point of sending them to him? I don’t want them to be sent to him.”
“It’s for boosting your confidence, so that he, Barret Smith, can open his eyes and see properly, that Jenny, is so beautiful, and it’s his loss he doesn’t cherish you, because there’re other many people who will care and treat you well.”
When Barret received the pictures, he couldn’t believe it either.
Jenny was wearing an apricot-coloured dress. Her long, fair legs were perfectly highlighted, and although it wasn’t a slim-fitting dress, the curves of her body were just at the right angle, making Jenny look glamorous. Under the dim light, the smile on her face appeared gentle and innocent.
Her eyes were as bright as stars, as if there was a whole starry sky in them.
Barret zoomed in on the pictures with two fingers, and when Jenny’s features were once again clearly shown in front of his eyes, he dared to make sure that the picture was no other person. It was definitely Jenny.
For some reason, his hand trembled a little as he held his phone.
Barret immediately called Jenny, and only when he heard the response did he remember that he had been blocked by her.
He switched to Instagram again and immediately sent a message over. “Where are you? I’m coming to pick your up.”
Unread and unanswered.
Nowhere to be found.
Barret sent a message again. “Answer me!”
“Still angry?”
“Jenny, tell me where you are?”
Still, there was no response at all.
Barret immediately sent a message to Penny since she was with Jenny in the mall together. “Where are you guys?”
“Mr. Smith, what’s the rush? Why should I tell you?”
“Penny, I think it’s better for you to tell me directly, I don’t want to go to Jerome.”
Penny gritted her teeth. Barret Smith, you were such a bastard.
She returned, “It’s no point for you to talk to Jerome, he doesn’t know either.”Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“If Jenny has blocked you, I can also block Jerome Cook. Barret Smith, it’s no use to play tough in front of me, the only thing you can do is to coax Jenny and ask for her forgiveness, otherwise, there is no other way.” After finishing typing, Penny logged out and decided not to respond anymore.
A man like Barret Smith, was just spoiled. So, he had to be taught a lesson about how hard it is for someone to feel if he or she can’t get what they want. Then he would know how hard it had been for Jenny and how hard it was to love.
On the other hand, Barret was holding his phone to his forehead, feeling a big headache.
He prided himself on his ability to strategize and be decisive in the business world, but in the face of these two women, he felt so powerless.
Just when Barret’s face started to become as cold as ice, suddenly, he saw a text message pop up on his phone.
The text message said there were two payments about an hour and a half ago, and he took a closer look at the details.
One was at the women’s clothing shop and the other was at the men’s clothing shop.
Men’s clothing?
Jenny would definitely not buy clothes for Baron.
Could it be that it was for him?
Thinking of this, Barret was suddenly lit up, feeling that his previous bad mood had been all swept away.
