When Armani was choosing her clothes for tomorrow, her phone vibrated. An anonymous account sent her a picture, in which the face was blurred, but the bruises and bleeding on his body were obvious. There was a distinct birthmark on his chest, which was the birthmark of K.
She was anxious and called Ben immediately.
"Ben, look at the braised pork I cooked today, it's a famous dish in China. I personally went to the pig farm to choose the pork this time. Have a taste. If you like it, I will cook it for you every day." Edith ordered May to serve the braised pork and said to Ben warmly.
Jessie was about to pick up her chopsticks when she heard her mother's words. She smiled and said, "Mom, Ben just praised the taste of braised pork last time and you cooked it foe him again. You are so partial. Am I your daughter?"
Edith sat down and said with a smile, "Are you still jealous of Ben? I'm just happy to see you two get along well with each other."
Looking at the bandage on Ben's head, Edith frowned again and said unhappily, "People all think that Armani is so excellent and promising. Who knows what kind of person she is? She has done something indecent and was exposed by the media. But those unreasonable people vented their anger on Ben. It's really annoying."
Jessie stopped eating and said indifferently, "It's not her fault. She and her friends are always on good terms. They are worried about her, so they did such a thing."
"Fortunately, you are not as outstanding as her. Don't have to face all this mess. I don't know what's the use of being so famous." Then she turned to look at Ben and said with a smile, "Jessie is just a little introverted. She doesn't have any friends. In the past, I always worried her about making less friends. No one else knows that she is Miss Jessie of Xu Family. Now it seems that it's not wrong for a girl to be introverted."
"Jessie will be the executive director of XU Group in the future. She needs to meet a lot of clients. Appropriate connections are very helpful to her." Ben said with a smile. Suddenly, his phone on the sofa rang. Jessie immediately smiled and said, "I'll get it for you."
But when she saw the caller's number, her face changed. She directly hung up the phone and deleted the record. Then she turned around and said as if nothing had happened, "It is a sales call, it has been automatically intercepted."
Ben had no doubt. Thinking of something interesting, Edith smiled and said, "Speaking of this sales call, I received it a few days ago. That man asked me if I had spent millions of dollars in T country. He need to make a record."
"It sounds so fake." Said Jessie.
Edith smiled and said, "Of course I know he is a deceiver. But I was bored, so I said to him, "Yes, it's me. I'm from T country. Then I told him in the language of T country, which confused him. At last, he stopped me and persuaded me to work in their company. He said that I had the advantage of foreign language and could directly enter the management. It's so funny. Their businesses should also keep pace with the times. "
"You from T country?" Ben asked in confusion.
Edith didn't know what to say. She lowered her head and smiled awkwardly. "My mother is from T country, so I can speak a little."
After dinner, Ben stood up and was about to leave. Jessie insisted on sending him and got in his car.
"My grandmother was smuggled from T country, she was sold by traffickers to a man and gave birth to my mother." Sitting in the car, she whispered, "Ben, will you dislike me for my origin?"
"What are you thinking about?" Ben said to her. I'm not with you for your past. What I want is your future. "
Jessie was so moved that she leaned over and kissed him on the cheek.
