Although Scarlett didn't tell Rowan what Jessie did last time, Rowan saw through Jessie's tricks easily. After all, he had experienced a lot up to now.
Scarlett helped Roman go downstairs. When Roman saw Jessie, he frowned slightly and asked, "Jessie, why don't you chto have dinner?" When Jessie saw Roman, she smiled and was about to cup to curry favor with Roman. After she heard what he had said, the smile froze on her face. She said embarrassedly, "My parents will eat outside today." Roman glanced at Jessie and said, "Alright, we have enough food for you." Although he said so, he asked Jessie why she didn't chto have dinner when he saw her. He showed that she was unwelchere.
Timothy and Cyrus flushed, but they couldn't leave. The Tank family was reluctant to deal with them recently. If they left, the Tank family would dislike them more.

Jessie was stuck for words for the tbeing.
Scarlett helped Roman have a seat. Then she sat beside him.
Jessie saw that. She felt resentful and said, "Ms. Reed, isn't it Larry's seat?" Before Scarlett said something, Larry said coldly, "We don't have so many rules." Jessie was humiliated by them again. Her face turned ashen in anger. She stared at Scarlett.
After all, Timothy and Cyrus were Jessie's brothers. Seeing that Jessie was humiliated because of Scarlett again and again, Timothy couldn't help but ask," Grandpa, what's the relationship of Ms. Reed and you?" Roman said casually, "She is my granddaughter. | find her not long ago." Although it was true, Jessie, Timothy and Cyrus didn't believe it.
Hearing what Roman had said, Jessie glanced at Scarlett again. 'She is so lucky that even Roman likes her!" Viviana changed the topic, "I know that you like to eat fish. The fish is fresh today." Viviana said as she picked up the fish.
Jessie was about to get the fish subconsciously.
However, as soon as Jessie raised her fork, Viviana put the fish in front of Scarlett.

'Is the Tank family out of mind?" 'Why they treat Scarlett so well and even ignore me? Although | have an ulterior motive to get close to them, my surnis Tank at least. Besides, | have gotten along with them for so many years. However, after Scarlett shows up suddenly, they only care about her!" 'She is not Roman's real granddaughter!” 'Why are they so nice to her?" Jessie didn't know that Scarlett was Roman's granddaughter indeed. Scarlett was closer to the Tank family than Jessie whose surnwas Tank.
Jessie neither knew the truth nor believed what Roman had said. She thought that Scarlett snatched the fish from her. She gritted her teeth and said, "Viviana, | also like fish very much." Hearing that, Viviana smiled, "Help yourself." Jessie wanted Viviana to put the fish in front of her. Hearing what Viviana had said, Jessie was stuck for words.
Scarlett ate the fish. It tasted good. Then she glanced at the angry Jessie. The fish tasted better.
'It’s interesting to see Jessie compete for attention." Scarlett enjoyed the dinner very much. On the contrary, Jessie had no appetite. She didn't eat much and just saw the Tank family chat with Scarlett.
In the past, Viviana always chatted with Jessie and asked Jessie to eat more.
However, after Scarlett showed up, Viviana ignored Jessie completely, let alone ask her to eat more. Jessie didn't know what she had done wrong.
