Chapter 19
As she saw Mark’s hard, icy gaze, she felt sad and lost within, but all she could do was harden her jaw and say, “I’m sorry “But perhaps it’s been four years since I last saw Mae. I unintentionally scratched her because I was so happy to see her again.”
She felt sad and lost in her heart, but when she met Mark’s tough and cold eyes, she could only
stiffen her mouth and admit:
“But… Maybe I haven’t seen Mae in four years. I’m too excited to see her again, so I accidentally scratched her.”
Mark did not seem to buy her quibble. He only looked at her indifferently and said,
“Don’t play tricks in front of me. I don’t like being treated as a fool, understand?”
Although her tone did not fluctuate, Jennifer was stunned to hear a calm warning from her unwavering words.
Mark left the scene, leaving Jennifer standing on the spot with an unpleasant expression.
No matter if Mark was helping Mae vent his anger or if he simply did not want to be played by Jennifer as a fool, he had put Jennifer in an awkward and embarrassing situation, and he did not even feel that something was wrong.
This was not like treating a confidante.
The people around me were dumbfounded.
Was Jennifer his girlfriend?
There were all kinds of rumours about him and Jennifer in the media, but he hadn’t been able to
refute the rumours.
There were rumours that Jennifer was pregnant.
Just now, he was so nervous and pulled Jennifer. The rumours might be true. Jennifer was pregnant with his child. Then why did he treat Jennifer like this?
Tsk, tsk, tsk!
Rich men were mean and heartless.

“Bastard, scumbag, he still has the face to apologize to that green tea faced woman; can’t he be blind?”
Jean was taken away by Mae, and she cursed all the way. When she saw the few fingernail prints on the back of Mae’s hand, she got angrier.
“It’s alright, it’s not a good time for Jennifer.”
Mae smiled. The surface of her hands were visible with marks that would pain her so much that she would begin to question her life in another hour or two. That night, she wouldn’t want to go to sleep.
“You bastard, you were too soft–hearted back then. If you only wanted him for 10 billion, you should have sent him away from the house.”
However, Jean was scolded, and she knew that Mark couldn’t leave the house.
“It’s impossible for him to leave the house dirty, so let him clean it all he wants.”
Jean added another sentence, causing Ye Sheng to laugh out loud.
“Okay, let’s not talk about people who don’t matter. I came here to meet Aaron Foster. Since I’ve met him, nothing else matters. I’ll leave first.”
“I’ll send you back.”
“No, I’ll take a taxi quickly. It’s not convenient for you to drink.”
Jean wanted to say something, but a servant walked over. “Second Miss, Old Mrs Chen asked you to
come over.”
“You go first; I’ll go out and call a car.”
The heating was on in the venue, so when Mae went out, she was only wrapped in a thin coat.
At the time, it was less than a month before the Chinese New Year. It was the coldest time of the year. When Mae walked out of the venue, the cold air rushed towards her.
She subconsciously rubbed her arms and took out her phone to call for a car. A hand suddenly landed on her shoulder. She quickly reached out to block it.
With two clicks, the phone fell to the ground. At the same time, Mae could see the person in front of
her.
Mark Smith. Mae’s brows twitched.
There was a faint arc on the corner of her mouth, and her delicate brows were gently raised, with a slight provocation in her laziness.
