Jessica was wearing a loose light yellow undershirt and a floral skirt, looking very young. She was born beautiful and her skin was well maintained. She looked like a 20-year-old girl.
However, her gloomy face looked a little scary.
Looking around, she didn't see John or Nina. She frowned and asked, "Helen, where are they?"
"Mr. John is working and madam is upstairs." Helen replied.
"Upstairs? What is she doing upstairs?" Jessica looked up at the second floor and could only see the vestibule of the stairs.
"Madam is not feeling well and is resting upstairs."
All of a sudden, Jessica snorted, "She's young and should be in good health. She must be pretending to be discomfort. John is busy everyday while she's free at home and spends his money."
Jessica always remembered that Nina had said what she wanted was all the assets of John.
Nina was a gold digger and a seductress. John was so infatuated with her. Recently, the news of their marriage was widely spread in LC City.
It took Jessica two or three days to completely calm down. She wanted to ask her father and brother about it, but they refused to see her.
She had been the apple of the eye of the family since she was born. Her family had never given her a cold shoulder.
However, after the appearance of Nina, she was cold-shouldered by her father and her brother.
Jessica couldn't accept it.
So she came to inform John and Nina to attend the family dinner on SQ Road tomorrow night, which should have been done by the servant.
She wanted to see what kind of tricks Nina played to make her brother abnormal. However, she was sleeping in the daytime.
"Go to ask her to come down." Jessica ordered Helen.
Helen used to be a servant of the SQ Road, but now she was a servant of the North Yard. She always protected the interests of Mr. John, but not the interests of the Shi family.
Judging from Jessica's tone, Helen knew how dissatisfied she was with Nina. Helen couldn't let her do something bad to Nina, or John would be heartbroken.
"Miss Jessica, madam didn't sleep last night. You have gone through that. I hope you can understand her." Helen said in a gentle and alienated tone.
Of course, Jessica understood what Helen meant, but she didn't like Nina. A woman without any family background and with many rumors didn't match her brother.
"It's already afternoon. No matter how uncomfortable she is, she should wake up now. Go and ask her to come down. She is now John's wife and I am John's sister. The eldest sister is as important as mother. She should come down to receive me." Jessica put her bag on the sofa and sat down, putting pressure on Helen.
She must meet with Nina today.
Helen sighed in her heart, 'What should happen will still happen.'
John and Jessica had the best relationship. The two of them had similar characters. Jessica cared John so much that she wanted to take care of everything for him.
Now even Jessica wanted to interfere in John's marriage.
Helen couldn't resist Jessica's pressure, so she had to go upstairs to wake up Nina. "Madam, wake up. How are you feeling now?"
"What's wrong? Helen." Nina opened her sleepy eyes and closed them again when she saw Helen.
She was really tired.
It was all John's fault. He had kissed her or hugged her the whole night, making her feel painful all over her body.
In fact, Nina didn't want to continue the stalemate with Jessica. She didn't like to beat around the bush and liked to say directly. "John is my husband now. I can wear his clothes."
At the mention of John's marriage, Jessica became angry. Everyone knew that she was trying to make a match between John and Vivian. She also promised to the Ye family that John would definitely marry Vivian.
Unexpectedly, Nina fell in love with John secretly and got married. Wasn't it a slap in Jessica's face and a disgrace to her?
"Nina, you are indeed the legal wife of John at present, but I don't know whether you will still be his wife later." Jessica was a little complacent. There were many people who had divorced nowadays.
As long as they divorced, Vivian would marry John. At that time, it would be a good deal for the Shi family and the Ye family to get closer relationship.
Nina replied, "At least now."
"Humph! Sooner or later, you will find that you don't match John at all. Only Vivian is good enough for him." Jessica disliked Nina so much.
Nina suddenly remembered what John had said and said it to Jessica. "No matter how good Vivian is, I'm still John's first wife."
"You..." Jessica was so angry that she didn't know what to say. She hated Nina even more.
No one dared to talk to her like that. Even John would show respect to her.
Helen worried about Nina so she secretly contacted John.
As soon as Helen saw John come back, she shouted, "Mr. John, you're back."
When John came back, the displeasure on Jessica's face immediately disappeared. She turned around and said with a smile, "John, why do you come back so early today?"
Her face changed quickly.
