GoodReadWhat had happened the night before yesterday made Rowan unhappy. There were few opportunities for Rowan to enjoy quality twith Scarlett and Larry. But Jessie and Priscilla cto disturb him, so Rowan beceven more unhappy now.
"Why are they coming here?" "They seem to send a gift to Ms. Reed." Hearing the housekeeper's words, Scarlett raised her eyebrows.
Glancing at Scarlett, Larry suggested, "Let's go take a look first." Although Larry said that day that he would not meet Jessie and Priscilla, the Tank family didn't sever the relationship with them. And since Jessie and Priscilla chere in person to give Scarlett a gift, Larry had no excuse to refuse to meet them.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtScarlett didn't mind meeting them, as she had belittled them.
If she really wanted to get even with Jessie, she had many ways. But she didn't want to trouble Rowan, so she spared Jessie.
Jessie belonged to the Tank family anyway, so she was also related to Rowan.
Although Rowan was not happy with what Jessie had done, when he knew that they cto give a gift to Scarlett, he was pacified a little.
Since they could treat Scarlett politely and respectfully, Rowan was also willing to treat them not so coldly.
If Scarlett hadn't minded high-profile and she hadn’t stopped him from making public the fact that she was his granddaughter, Rowan would have already widely publicized the relationship between Scarlett and the Tank family.
Rowan used to dote on Pearl, but Pearl passed away at a young age. Scarlett was Pearl's daughter, so Rowan gave all his love for Pearl to Scarlett.
"Let’s go and see." They three walked towards the villa. As soon as they walked into the villa, Jessie smiled at Scarlett. "Ms. Reed, | heard from a friend that yesterday was your birthday, so | chere today to give you a birthday present." Then she handed Scarlett the gift.

Jessie may regard Scarlett as your sister." Priscilla was really cunning, as she made Jessie seem to have a close relationship with the Tank family.
Looking at Scarlett, she added, "Ms. Reed, you are the sage as Jessie. You two can view each other as sisters." "What do you think, Mr. Tank?" Just staring at Priscilla, Rowan neither agreed nor refused straightforwardly. "We haven't made public the relationship between Scarlett and our family. If Jessie calls Scarlett sister, others will think that Scarlett has a relationship with Rafael." Rowan's words embarrassed Priscilla a lot. As Rafael really had an illegitimate daughter of the sage as Jessie, which was no secret. But Priscilla refused to allow the illegitimate daughter to cback, so the only daughter of her and Rafael was Jessie.
But the families that had a close relationship with the Tank family knew such a thing. Rowan had scolded Rafael for what he had done. When he pointed out this matter vaguely, Priscilla immediately flushed.
And she even couldn't keep smiling. "Yeah. You're right." Then she didn't say anything.
Scarlett didn't know the inside story. But judging from Priscilla's reaction, she guessed that the rumor about Rafael's illegitimate daughter was true.
"Ms. Reed, | just joked with you the night before. Please don’t take it seriously." Scarlett looked at her and smiled. "I didn't take it seriously." "Thank you." Jessie breathed a sigh of relief. When she walked to Scarlett's side, she was about to hold Scarlett's hand, but Scarlett dodged her covertly. "Do you have anything else to talk about with me?" The smile on Jessie's face disappeared, as she didn't expect Scarlett to still be cold towards her. But when she thought that Scarlett was the granddaughter of Rowan, she had to endure Scarlett’s coldness. "I just want to know if you like this gift."
