Chapter 189
Jessica was only hiding her true identity when she mentioned another city abroad. She actually used to be the recurring snooker champion in Horington.NôvelDrama.Org content.
If it was not for Trevor, she might still be the number one snooker player in Horington.
She had to become the second best snooker player once Trevor showed up.
"Oh, really? We shall see then."
Trevor smiled happily as he knew she was not bluffing.
He really did not know how to play snooker when Jessica was the number one player in Horington. He only learned to play by studying hard because he wanted to date her. After that, both of them brought Bennett to the snooker room in the Gulliford residence.
After they chose their cue sticks, they started playing-
A lot of the housekeepers came over to watch the match. Old Mr. Gulliford would occasionally play
some snooker, so everyone knew about the rules.
Trevor took the first shot and immediately sank three balls.
Jessica also became serious. She knew Trevor was great at snooker so she did not focus solely on how to score. Thus, she decided to play defensively instead.
She played cautiously and defensively, and Trevor had a hard time scoring.
"Do you have to play like that? Ms. Lockett, you are being so competitive," Trevor grumbled.
The smile on Trevor grew wider when he saw the state of the snooker table.
Jessica is so serious when she is trying to beat me. She will observe the angles and the distance carefully before she makes her move every time. She even takes a long time to aim and take her shot sometimes, he thought. "We should be serious when we're doing things. Isn't that right, Mr. Gulliford?" Jessica said as she smiled.
She did not really care if she was serious or not. She had been playing snooker for so many years, and Trevor only learned to play. Hence, she was frustrated that he was overwhelming her.
Trevor smiled and said, "That's right. As expected of you."
However, he did not show any mercy at all as he quickly sank all the balls and defeated Jessica easily.
Jessica felt a little dejected as she grabbed her cue stick and leaned on the wall.
"He just learned to play snooker! Why can't I even beat him for one round?" she wondered.
"Ms. Lockett, you can call me master. I can teach you."
Trevor could not help but laugh out loud when he saw her cute face.
"There's no need for that. Thank you," Jessica said as she put down her cue stick.
She refused to play anymore as she thought Trevor was making fun of her on purpose.
"Is he going to beat me in one round if he gets serious?" she wondered.
"All right. Don't be angry. Let's go watch some TV together," Trevor said.
Trevor also put down his cue stick and walked to her side. Then, he put his slender fingers around her waist and pulled her into his arms.
"What should I do? She is angry because teased her! I shouldn't have bragged about teaching her, and I should have let her win a round. Why did I get serious and beat her?" he thought.
"I'm not angry. Please let go of me, Mr. Gulliford."
Jessica frowned slightly as she looked down at Trevor's hands on her waist. He could feel anger emanating from her body.
"All right," Trevor said as he quickly withdrew his hands.
Jessica turned and left. After going back to her room, she was bored so she sat on the couch and browsed the news on her phone. The Queen family was not doing very well right now. Camila's children, Lilia and Lionel had been backed into the corner by Jonathan. Lilia and Lionel would end up living on the streets if this continued.
"No, I have to help them!" she thought.
Jessica then transferred all the
money that Trevor gave her last time to the Queen family's company accounts. Naturally, she did not put her name on the transaction
swn?
She used a throwaway account, so the Queen family had no idea who she was.
She was not trying to be anonymous, but she was ashamed to put her name down after she helped them.
Granny and Granddad did not have a son, and they only had Jessica's mother and Camila. Their other family members were just some distant relatives.
Camilla wanted to continue the
family bloodline, so she did not marry anyone. Instead, she
underwent artificial insemination
and gave birth to two children.
