When Jessie had just stepped into Rosy's place, she heard a sound like a vase shattering to pieces on the floor.
Rosy was burning with wrath at that moment. The more she thought about the matter at hand, the more indignant she got. She was even throwing vases onto the floor. The servants nearby trembled with fear as they saw how angry Rosy was, breaking things here and there. No one dared to step up and stop her from doing it because she always had such a violent temper. Whenever she would immerse herself into rage, no one could make her stop. Thus, they all just kept silent, waiting for Rosy to cool down on her own.
"What's wrong? Rosy? Why are you so angry? Who has displeased the Lady of the Nalan clan this time?"
Rosy was disgusted to hear Jessie call her 'the Lady of the Nalan clan', so she immediately shouted at Jessie, "Are you mocking me?"
"No, I'm not! I will never do that to you. Rosy, what's wrong? What made you this furious? Would you like to tell me about it?"
Seeing Rosy in a bad mood, Jessie immediately walked up to her and took her hand. Then, she drew her to aside and said, "Calm down. You shouldn't lose your temper at home. Come on. Let's go to a coffee shop. I will treat you to coffee. Then, you can tell me all about it, okay?"
Rosy couldn't find a better way to relinquish her anger, so she nodded and replied, "Fine, let's go!"
Jessie tipped the servants with a wink and beckoned them to clean up the mess. After that, she walked Rosy outside and went toward a high-end coffee shop nearby. After they had reached the place, they opted to be put in a private VIP room. Then Rosy began to tell Jessie about her unpleasant experience and express her grievances.
After hearing what had happened to Rosy today, Jessie slammed the table and said, "Linda is so unreasonable! She is nothing in the Nalan clan, and how could she be this shameless? Does she want to take away all of the Nalan clan's properties? Rosy, this is an injustice to you."
"What should I do now? Every property of the Nalan clan is owned by my grandfather. First the companies, and now the estates; he always gives properties of our clan to Linda. It is obvious that he has bias toward Linda. If Linda would get everything someday, what should we do then?"
Lord Nalan had control of all the properties of the Nalan clan, so the others couldn't use them as they would please. He could give all of the properties to Linda if he wanted to. By then, Rosy and the other family members could do nothing but cry in despair.
Suddenly, there was a grim expression in Jessie's eyes. She took a slow, meaningful glance at Rosy. She had come up with a cruel plan, but she wondered whether she should tell Rosy her idea or not. After all, she had intended to set up Lord Nalan, Rosy's dear grandfather.
Jessie was also worried that Rosy might not agree with her plan. Rosy might even despise her for it. If that would happen, she would not know what to do.
"Rosy, I've figured out a way to change the current situation and prevent Linda from getting any properties of the Nalan clan. But it's a cruel and dangerous plan. Do you still want to hear it?"
"Tell me." Rosy's eyes lit up with surprise and said, "If you really have come up with a good idea to stop Linda's attempt to get the Nalan clan's properties, I'd like to do it."
"But don't take it seriously because this is..."
