Terry looked at Jessica again, but Jessica avoided his eyes subconsciously.
To be honest, she was much more curious about Jeremy than Terry.
She was curious that where did Terry and Jeremy go that day, she saw their car. And she wanted to know how had Jeremy been these years.
However, she didn’t dare to ask all of those questions.
“Dad, is the welcoming party over? The party just gave the company foul atmosphere and bothers everyone’s working.” Anna couldn't wait to complaint since she had put up with that the whole morning.
Henry glanced at her unhappily, and pulled her aside and whispered, “Don’t you know that Louis Carter likes your sister now and there is no benefit for us if we offended her. So, you’d better be convergent.”
Anna was convergent after being rebuked by her dad.
But her angry face and fierce eyes still sold her out.
Jessica didn’t care about that.
She thought she was just an onlooker who was watching The Wilson family arguing.
Terry had a glanced at Henry and Anna, then looked at Jessica. He asked slightly, “Vice president, does the Wilson Group mean that important to you?”
Jessica was surprised and she looked up at Terry since she didn’t expect that he would ask her such a question.
Besides, Louis questioned her so many times that did the Wilson Group mean that important to her.
Jessica smiled bitterly and her head ached when she thought of Louis Carter. It seemed that he was the name that always showed up in her mind her whole life. “Why do you say so?”
Terry blinked his eyes and replied, “The Wilson Group was eliminated by the Carter Group but you figured out an idea to make it in the shortlist and changed Louis Carter’s mind. You must have done a lot for the Wilson Group. If it doesn’t mean important to you, why did you take so many efforts?”
“Really? You also think like that?”
She smiled bitterly and no one knew the truth was that her parents betrayed her. How could she tell others the truth?
Terry looked at her bitter smile on her face, and he was a bit confused but he hid it.
“Not me, but someone thinks like that.” Terry said a word of double meaning.
“Someone? Who?” She came up with a name subconsciously but she didn’t ask him.
Terry was keen and said, “You know who he is, don’t you?”
“No, I don’t know.” Jessica turned around and was about to leave since she was afraid that Terry saw through her mind.
Terry said in a low voice behind her, “You know who he is and he will help your wish come true.”
Jessica was shocked and trembled.
But she didn’t dare to look at Terry. Her fists couldn’t help trembling.
“He will help your wish come true.”
After hearing what Terry said, her tears fell…
Who? Jeremy?
Why did he help her wish come true?
She was qualified!
Jessica strove to the balcony without hesitation…
She just worked as a vice-president for a few days and now she was forced to do some preparation for the bid.
Her fingers would touch her phone and had a look at the screen from time to time, but it was strangely quiet.
Since that day, Louis didn’t call her anymore.
But he was the one who told her to keep her phone on 24 hours…
Thinking of this, Jessica shook her head and thought in mind, “What’s wrong with you Jessica Wilson? You should be happy that he didn’t call you! Now he might be lying on Brenda’s bed and sleeping soundly!”
But her heart ached…
The door was kicked open suddenly.
Jessica saw Anna who was in a rage.
She was carrying a pile of files and put down on Jessica’s table fiercely.
“Read all these files, vice president!”
Anna was still haughty but maybe she was given a lesion by her dad or she might be surprised at Jessica’s competence that she could help the Wilson Group be added on the shortlist for the bid. Therefore, she tried to restrained her anger but she failed to hide her complaints.
Jessica frowned and flipped open the files.
“You should give these files to Terry.”
Actually, she knew nothing about architecture.
But Louis Carter made her realized that as long as knew more powerful people and with a strong background relationship, she would be able to have a high position with great power.
Anna sneered, “Don’t rely on Terry Wright. He is just a dog raised by the Wilson Group!”
Jessica frowned and she felt it so unfair for Terry. “Though I have no idea why Terry would like to subdue himself to work for the Wilson Group, he is an expert in architecture!”
“I can tell you why! Because he likes me!” Anna was picking her fingernails proudly.
Jessica was so shocked, “How could that be…”
She didn’t expect that the purpose of Terry to stay here was out of that reason.
“Why he can’t? When I was dating Jeremy, he liked me from then on. He tries to make me happy in different ways. When he makes love with me on the bed, he is just like a playboy. Or do you think he is a gentleman? Or do you think all men will like you only?”
Anna was aggressive when she mentioned Jeremy.
