Leaving The Country After Divorce novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 638

Chapter 638

There had been no other women around Jack other than her for all these years. Even though she was two years older than Jack, Jessica was already thinking of herself as Jack’s future wife until she encountered Roxanne.

The more Jessica saw others compliment Roxanne, the more she couldn’t stay seated. After scanning her surroundings and seeing that Jack was on the other side toasting to the doctors, Jessica filled at glass of wine for herself and walked over.“Jack, are you not done yet?” Jessica said as she walked over to Jack as if telling the others that he was hers. The women at the side cooed.

Jack was in the middle of talking about professional matters with the others when he was suddenly interrupted by Jessica. Instantly, the smile on his face faded. “I still need a little longer. If you’re bored, you can head back with the other girls first. Once I’m done, I’ll come and visit you.”

It was a subtle way of asking her to leave. Displeasure rose in Jessica’s heart, but she still smiled and moved closer to him. Then she raised her glass and looked at the other doctors at the table. “You’re all Jack’s seniors. As someone close to him, I have to give you a toast. Please allow me to do so.”

With that. Jessica downed the glass of wine. The entire time, she acted as if she was the lady of Jack’s household. The doctors exchanged a look. Despite how baffled they felt, they still politely took a sip from their glasses.

Jessica beamed with satisfaction and took the opportunity to stay by Jack’s side.

When the other women saw how intimate Jack and Jessica seemed, they cheered again.

However, Jack realized that he could not continue after the interruption anymore. Hence, he said to the other doctors apologetically, “Let’s talk about the details another day. It’s getting late now. Let’s

head back earlier after the merry meal.”

The others agreed to it. Jack turned to glance at the person beside him and frowned. He then suppressed the displeasure in his heart and brought Jessica back to their seats.
