Chapter 528
Earlier, Jessica had watched Griffon help Taya put on the
helmet. His gentle and nostalgic actions made Jessica envious. and jealous at the same time.
She and Taya were equally pretty, and even her background
and academic qualifications were much better than that of
Taya.
Even so, Griffon just didn’t like her, and instead fell in love with Taya who was nothing compared to her. It was unbelievable.
Taya glanced at the confident and calm Jessica before softly replying, “You’ll have to ask him yourself.””
Taya didn’t know why Griffon fell in love with her at first sight
either, so she couldn’t answer Jessica’s question.
However, Jessica took that as a provocation, and her pretty face darkened in an instant. “Where do you get that sense of
superiority from, Taya?”
Taya frowned with a puzzled look on her face and asked her: “Well, since you’re asking, Dr. Simmons, I’ll answer you truthfully. What does this have to do with a sense of
superiority?”
Jessica pursed her lips slightly and snorted coldly. “You only have the guts to put on airs in front of me because you have Griffon backing you up.”
Taya felt like it was pointless trying to communicate with Jessica, so she pursed her red lips and stopped replying to her.
Seeing that she didn’t say anything, Jessica thought it was a sign of Taya’s submission. A hint of disdain appeared on her haughty face.
Despite that, she continued to act superior as she questioned Taya, “Did he propose to you, Taya?”
When Taya heard that, she subconsciously lowered her slightly curled eyelashes. She stared at the black riding boots and
remained silent.
Jessica could see through her at a glance. “I knew it. How could he propose to you so easily?”
She seemed to relax all over as she leaned back on the bench,
and folded her arms over her chest. She raised her chin and
gave Taya a warning.
“As your former doctor, I would like to give you a quick reminder. Don’t think that he’ll marry you just because he’s treating you like you’re special right now,” she thundered.
“Noble sons like him usually get mated to young ladies from aristocratic packs. the Knight pack will definitely look down on someone with your status.”
She continued, “So, you have to accept reality. He’s nice to you now, but he’s just playing with you. When he gets tired of you, he’ll dump you without any hesitation.”
“A woman in her thirties won’t be able to entertain a man for long. Don’t waste your time and effort with a man who won’t mate you.”
When Taya heard those harsh words, she was even more embarrassed, especially since she already felt inferior.
She clenched her hands tightly. With clear and bright eyes, she looked away from the riding track and looked at Jessica beside her.
“Let me give you a reminder as well, Dr. Simmons. You have liked Griffon since you were in college, but he has no interest in you. You’ve wasted more than ten years of your youth fighting for a man who’s never loved you. What’s the point?” she fired back.
Jessica’s face froze after getting slapped in the face like that. Just as she was about to refute, Taya spoke again.
“There’s one more thing that you’re wrong about. There are many people like me in the world, and many wealthy packs started out the way I did. How do you know that I won’t become rich with my own power in the future?” she added.
4/4
When Taya said the last sentence, the firm determination and confidence in her eyes showed a sense of tranquility that even Jessica didn’t possess.
She had lived an insecure life since she was a pup. However, with the help of Rosalie’s heart and identity, she was granted another chance at life. How could she submit to fate so easily?
Jessica, who had always boasted about being untouchable, looked at the woman in front of her who seemed to have been
completely reborn. She could barely recognize her as the woman who was lying on the hospital bed two months ago.
Jessica marveled at her changes but felt that her confidence was entirely due to Griffon, so she didn’t take Taya seriously.
She picked up her helmet, stood up, and said disdainfully, “I bet he will never mate you. Let’s wait and see.”
