Jessy complained in a low voice, “Grandpa, see? She doesn’t even bother with you.
Look at her arrogant attitude.
So what if she’s the Xander family’s daughter? She still grew up in the countryside and still look as such.
Look at what she’s wearing.
A small dress with flats.
This is a real country bumpkin…” “Shut up already! Couldn’t you close your mouth for once?” Christopher scolded.
“Grandpa…” Jessy was furious.
Her tone was as aggrieved as it could be.
Christopher added, “Kristina, keep your daughter in check.” Kristina was Jessy’s mother.
“Jess, eat.
Don’t talk anymore.” Kristina got caught in the crossfire, feeling rather irked as well, so she scolded Jessy.
Jessy got even angrier.
She directly slammed her fork down.
“I’m not eating.” “Do that again, I dare you!” Christopher looked at Jessy with a dark expression.
Jessy stood up angrily.
“Sit down!” Christopher scolded again.
Kristina immediately said to her, “Jess.
Sit down.
and eat.” “I’m not eating anymore, alright?” Jessy was so angry that she cried.
Cassandra said pertinently, “You did the right thing.
You should have been more strict with her well long ago.
She’s the daughter of a wealthy family, yet she hardly looks like one.
How is she any different from those gossipy women everywhere else?” Jessy was so angry that she felt like she was about to explode on the spot.
Jane was also depressed today.
At this moment, she stood up and said, “I’m done eating too.
Take your time.
Jess, I’ll take you back to your room.” Jessy immediately took advantage of the situation and left the banquet hall with Jane.
“Pfftt… This is so wrong.” After leaving the banquet hall, Jessy let out a long breath.
Jane rolled her eyes, then said sarcastically, “Right? Look at Annalise’s arrogant behavior.
I bet you didn’t see her looking at you with disdain when she left…” “I saw it.” Jessy thought of Annalise’s disdainful gaze and felt even more stifled.
Jane held Jessy’s hand.
The two of them walked toward the guest rooms and complained along the way.
“She can dress like a princess but she sure as hell doesn’t look like one.
She thinks that she’s that much of a big deal, huh?” “That’s right.
Look at that flats she’s wearing.
It’s really ugly.” “So what if she’s the daughter of the Xander family?” “But she’s the real daughter of the Xander family.
How infuriating!” The more Jane thought about it, the more jealous she became.
She had always liked Julian.
Originally, she thought that even if she was only the Hiller family’s adopted daughter, her status would be much, higher than Annalise, just a woman from the countryside.
After that, when she found out that Annalise was Joseph’s disciple, making her jealous, yet she still felt that her status as a Hiller family’s daughter was better.
However, Annalise eventually turned out to be Lee’s biological daughter.
Not only that, but Yechiel was also dead.
Now, Lee was the one in charge of the Xander family.
In other words, Annalise’s status was higher than all of the Xander family’s daughters.
“Ah, I’m so angry!” Jane was so angry that she wanted to reach out and pull her hair.
She thought about how she had done her hair and endured it.
In the banquet hall, Annalise glanced at the door and looked away.
She figured that status really came in handy at times.
When those dazzling identities were put to the table, the undesirables would automatically retreat.
Layla watched as Annalise held Julian’s arm and went to another table.
She ate calmly.
She was not as stupid as Jared, going to the point that she had to do it herself.
Julian and Annalise shuttled through the banquet hall.
Layla ate while paying attention to the movements from the corner of her eye.
“Closer, closer.
They are almost at the table in the northwest corner.” She thought.
She did not spend money to hire anyone.
