Chapter 7934
Jessica looked at Della incredulously, and her blood boiled.
"Listen here, Della.First of all, you do not need to apologize to me.Secondly, I do not need your help.I'm doing great now.There is no need for you to worry.You can leave now” said Larry mercilessly.He finally had some peace and quiet after Della had gone overseas.Now, she came back all of a sudden.
Fate was playing games with him.
Looks like even Mr.Duff cannot reign her in anymore.
Too bad he is still keeping her in the dark about his health condition.
Larry shook his head sadly.
Mr.Duff was a good father, but Della was not a good daughter.
"You're not mad at me anymore, right? Can you please forgive me? I guarantee there is no next time! I will stand by you and accompany you come hell or high water" Della pleaded in a touching tone.
Jessica could not keep quiet any longer.
"That's enough, Ms.Duff.This is my place and not a stage for you to practice your acting chops.You may leave, for you are not welcome here."
Jessica stated bluntly.It's bad enough that this woman is distasteful.
On top of that, her skin is thicker than the wall of a fortress! Della walked over to Jessica and grasped her hands tightly.
"Jessica, I'm really grateful for your care and support toward Larry.Be rest assured that I will work hard from now on to take care good of Larry" said Della earnestly.
Taken aback by her unexpected gesture, Jessica was spooked.
"Enough!"
Larry suddenly bellowed.
How long does she plan to keep up the act? Larry snickered coldly and kept his eyes pinned on Della unflinchingly with an icy expression.
That's right.She was just putting on a show! A frighteningly cold glint flitted across Della's eyes.She instantly gave off an offensive vibe in contrast to her demeanor just a moment ago.
Since he was not interested to watch her performance, there was no point for her to continue acting.She ran her fingers through her silky hair and lifted her chin ever so slightly.
