Chapter 1169 You’re A Disappointment
Rachel stood there and could not move at all, as if she had grown roots.
She watched as the red figure walked through the door, beaming in youthfulness, and then slowly walked in towards the place where she had just come out from.
From where she stood, she could see what was happening behind the glass wall.
She saw that after Jessica entered the room, Jarred placed the bouquet of flowers in front of her.
Jessica lowered her head and flirted with him, and then the two of them walked to the table and sat down with smiles on their faces. Jarred took out a gift from his pocket and gave it to Jessica.
During the whole process, both of them were full of smiles. Outsiders who did not know the situation better would think that they were a happy couple.
However, Rachel thought of what Jarred had just said.
He said he was unwilling to go home because while he was exhausted from work, what welcomed him home was Bianca’s frowning face.
It was really ironic.
He could only see Bianca’s sad face, but he had never thought about how he had treated the woman who had assisted him for a lifetime and had accompanied him through hardships!
He had never given her even a stalk of flower on his own accord, let alone a present.
Even after being married for so many years, he had never accompanied her out for a cup of coffee.
On the other hand, the youthful Jessica had branded clothes on, and she even drove a sports car.
Rachel wanted to tolerate all of Jarred’s doing, but at that moment, she could no longer restrain herself anymore.
She clenched her fists and strode in.
In the room, Jarred was gently stroking Jessica’s hand. When he saw Rachel entering, he could not help but feel embarrassed.
He let go of Jessica.
Then, he scolded Rachel, “Who told you to come in? Don’t you have any manners? Did your mother teach you this way?”
Rachel sneered, and before Jarred finished his words, she took the opportunity to pick up the coffee on the table, splashing it on Jessica.
After a splash, she destroyed the perfect scene, and only Jarred’s anger and Jessica’s scream were heard.
“What are you doing?” Jessica was about to argue again when Rachel picked up another cup and poured it on her.
However, to her surprise, Jarred came forward and blocked it for Jessica.
“That’s enough!”
Jarred gritted his teeth and said, “Didn’t your mother teach you to be a virtuous and graceful lady? She has been repeating those words beside my ears for years, yet she brought up such a devil like you! You’re such a disappointment!”
Rachel’s heart fell to the pits, and she could not help but smile bitterly.
“So in your heart, I am my mother’s child. What about you? What are you to me?”Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
“Of course I’m your father, you rebel!”
Knowing that Rachel was Jarred’s daughter, Jessica did not dare to be presumptuous anymore.
Everyone knew that Jarred only had one daughter. Not only that, but she was married to the son of the Granger family.
In the future, Rachel would be in charge of the Gellert family and the Granger family.
Jessica could not offend Rachel!
As she thought about that, her face changed and she pretended to soothe things over.
“Oh, you’re Miss Gellert! Please don’t misunderstand this. It’s not what you think!”
Rache did not want to talk to her, therefore she only spoke to Jarred.
“I hope you can end this ridiculous relationship as soon as possible and give Mom an explanation!”
Jessica was ignored, and Jarred became upset.
“What’s with your attitude? Can’t you see an elder is talking to you?”
Rachel was so angry that she wanted to laugh. “Her, an elder? How old is she and how old am I? She might even be young enough to be my younger sister! Is it because I’m too naïve, or that you’re too disrespectful and don’t respect me enough?”
“Shut up!”
Jarred slapped Rachel in the face.
With a loud sound, the whole room became quiet.
Rachel was also stunned, “You hit me?”
She was the only child of the Gellert family and since she was a child, she had been cute and lovable. The whole family doted on her and she had never suffered at all since she was a child.
That day, she was hit by Jarred, her father she had respected the most, and it was all because of a mistress who was about the same age as her.
Jarred withdrew his hand as he retorted, “You are my daughter, and it’s my duty to educate you. Otherwise, when others say that you have no manners, you will be laughed at. You should go home now! You are Mrs. Granger now, and fulfill your duties well. Don’t meddle in the business of the Gellert family!”
“Mrs. Granger?”
Rachel sneered.
“The reason why you raised me to this age was to sell me at a good price, isn’t it? Was that why you tried your best to meet my demands and marry me into the Granger family? In fact, you’re doing all this for yourself!”
Jarred frowned, “You were willing to do all that as well!”
“Yes, I was willing, but now I’m not. Oh, I forgot to tell you. Eddison and I haven’t registered our marriage so I’m not Mrs. Granger either. We will be separated soon. Your dreams will soon be shattered!”
“What?” Jarred’s face changed dramatically.
“What did you say? You and Eddison didn’t get your marriage certificate?”
“Yes, that’s right! Are you incredibly disappointed? Your great career is ruined like this!”
“You…” Jarred grabbed Rachel by the wrist and said, “Call Eddison here now. I want to ask him in person!”
“I won’t!” Rachel shook his hand off. “Didn’t you say that I am my mother’s daughter? Then, this has nothing to do with you! You don’t have to worry about my business!”
After that, she turned around and left.
Jarred was so angry that he felt dizzy. When he was about to run after Rachel, he felt his head spinning.
Jessica immediately supported him comfortingly, “Alright, don’t be angry. Let me talk to her!”
Jarred took a deep breath and said, “Thank goodness you’re sensible!”
…
After Rachel came out, she could not stop her tears from falling down.
She was extremely disappointed in Jarred. Although she had said that she had nothing to do with him anymore, he was still her father, so how could she not be crestfallen?
Footsteps sounded behind her. It was Jessica who chased after her.
“I thought the daughters of the rich and powerful were all so high and noble, but it seems like you are just an idiot!”
Rachel wiped her tears and turned back to glare at her.
“You think that you’re the noble one here?”
“No, of course not! However, I won’t hide my intentions. I can tell you directly that I want your father for his money. What can you do about that?”
“You’re shameless!”
“Ha!” Jessica laughed proudly. “The loser is always filled with resentment! So what if I’m shameless? I’ve won! Don’t misunderstand, I’m not here to comfort you. I’m just putting on a show so your father will love me more!”
Rachel clenched her fists tightly.
“You’re really shameless! Even if you’ve won now, so what? Will a man who abandoned his wife not abandon a mistress like you in the future? How many more men can you be with? Do you want to tell your grandchildren about your glorious conquests when you get old?”
Rachel was really mad. She swore that those were the most vicious words she had ever uttered in her life.
Jessica was also enraged, and the arrogant look on her face gradually began to fall.
She looked fiercely at Rachel’s back and all of a sudden, she kicked Rachel with her red pointy high heels.
