Jessica saw Brenda stood up with excitement, and she was the first one who applauded for Jessica.
Then everyone applauded for her as well.
Jessica could notice that Louis looked extremely gloomy and his twitched lips seemed like showing his anger.
Though she felt so sorry for Brenda, she raised her lips haughtily. Since Louis was so heartless to her, she would of course do the same to him! Therefore, she was helping Brenda to prove the rumors to be true.
Brenda White was the first one who applauded for her.
And she did it on purpose obviously.
Because Jessica was helping her!
Then, the second round of the competition was over.
Jessica didn’t even need to recite that tedious report of the concepts.
And she just said the concept related to the relationship of Brenda and Louis, then she could manage to win Brenda’s admiration.
Everyone was waiting for the result of the competition.
Only two companies could be qualified to the final round.
But no one knew the result. However, Jessica was sure that the Wilson Group must be eliminated unless she got a strong background.
Louis was gazing at her with his hollow eyes.
Jessica could even feel his anger through the air.
However, her face was so pale and she was too weak to care about him.
Terry walked over to her as soon as the competition was over, and said, “Are you OK?”
She smiled weakly while covering her griping abdomen then gnashed her teeth, and answered, “I am fine.”
But she kept bleeding and her lips were paler.
That hurt so much!
Since there were so many people in the hall, so Louis could do nothing but just gazed at Jessica who was weak and pale.
He left the hall holding Brenda’s arms.
When he passed Jessica, he frowned and had a cold peek at Terry then said, “I’ve seen your drawing.”
He could check everyone’s drawing from the computer since the competitors were drawing on it at the first round of the competition.
Terry was nervous unconsciously and said, “I hope that Mr. Carter could give me more advice.”
Unexpectedly, Louis said disdainfully, “do you think you can pass if you used someone else’s work? There are indeed a galaxy of talents working in the Wilson Group.” He was mocking at the Wilson Group that it wasn’t the first time for them to compete with others in a dishonest way. Then he peeked at Jessica who was sweating and chimed, “Do you agree? Jessica?”
He emphasized the word “Jessica”, but it seemed like a mock.
Jessica was in astonishment.
Then she looked at Terry and she was so confused that he couldn’t use someone else’s work since she saw he was drawing by his own hands…
Terry wasn’t angry but smiled and it seemed that he had expected that Louis would say something like that, “I think Mr. Carter misunderstood me. The competition means so important, I don’t dare to cheat. Besides, I was drawing in the hall, how could I cheat?”
“Really?” Louis lifted his eyebrows and chimed, “so, there must be an expert teaching you how to do.”
“I don’t understand. If there must be an expert, she must be Jessica. Though she knows a little about architecture, she often brings me some creative inspirations…”
Louis sneered but he didn’t say a word.
Then he strove away holding Brenda’s arm…
Jessica was shocked when she smelled the perfume from Brenda.
The perfume smelled the same from Louis when they were his office just now!
So, someone did come to his office when she was sleeping.
And she was Brenda!
Jessica leaned her palm against her brow since her abdomen really hurt, she couldn’t ponder over it.
But what made her confused was only one thing.
“Terry, why did Louis Carter say that you used someone else’s work?”
Terry peaked at Jessica and saw Louis was walking farther. “Jessica, I told you that someone will help you make your wish come true. Therefore, it doesn’t matter whether it is someone else’s work or not.”
Jessica’s nerve was tight!
But she didn’t have any mood to ask more about that. What’s more, she was afraid that the one he was talking about was Jeremy. She didn’t dare to think about that!
“I don’t feel well and I need to go home now. Terry, help me ask for a leave, I won’t go back to the company.”
Terry frowned and asked, “Jessica, do you need to go to the hospital?”
“No, no, I am OK.”
She was so embarrassed to say she had bad cramps. And before her period came, she was forced to have sex with Louis, that asshole! Now, she felt it so painful and bloated.
She took her handbag and said goodbye to her team then strove out of the mansion…
But she didn’t notice that there was someone who looking at her with resentment.
The Star Primary School.
It was sunny today.
