Chapter 338
However, since Vicky refused to say anything, Cece and Jennifer decided that it was better for them to
not raise any questions.
With a gift to Jennifer in hand, Vicky arrived at the restaurant half an hour early, and Cece arrived 10
minutes after her.
Vicky was shocked to see that Cece was alone and asked, "Cece, why are you alone? Where's
Jennifer?"
Jennifer only knew Cece and Vicky in Stoneford City, and since Cece and Jennifer lived in the same
apartment, they would often travel together.
Cece pursed her lips. "That jerk, Anthony, took Jennifer with him this morning."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtVicky narrowed her eyes at the mention of Anthony. "What exactly is going on between...Jennifer and
Anthony?"
"That jerk knows no limit to save his mistress!" hissed Cece. "That woman is a goody-two-shoes, and
Jennifer suffered so much because of her! Still, it's like Anthony is completely blind to it, and he can't
even tell that that woman is faking it..."
Vicky had seen Anthony before and commented, 'Anthony doesn't seem that foolish to me."
"I can find it in my heart to forgive him if he's just stupid, but how can a businessman like him not spot
the trick of an ordinary woman? I don't think that Lily Foster can be smarter than the competitors
Anthony has to deal with every day!"
Lily Foster was the woman who saved Anthony's life and the goody-two- shoes Cece was referring to.
While they were talking, lightning struck across the sky, and it started raining outside shortly after.
Vicky looked outside the window. "It's raining..."
All the clouds had gathered, and though it was only six in the evening, it was already pitch dark outside.
After a month of therapy, Vicky started to recover and was no longer as frightened when she went
outside at night. Still, she was somewhat affected by the sudden approach of darkness.
Ring!
Cece's phone suddenly started ringing, and she answered the call right away. "Jennifer, Vicky and I are
here, so when are you and Anthony arriving? What?! That woman is in Stoneford City as well?!" Cece's
expression darkened. "How could he leave you on the street when it's pouring outside? Where are you
right now? I'm coming to get you!’
Cece hung up after a few words and explained to Vicky, "Vicky, Anthony said he needed to do
something and just left Jennifer on the street. Hang tight. I'll go and pick her up."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmVicky stood. "I will come with you."
Cece knew that Vicky was afraid of the dark and quiet.
Anthony had left Jennifer near the outskirts of the city where there were not many people, and as it was
dark because of the rain, she shook her head and said, "It's fine, Vicky. I'll go alone. Just wait for us
here. I should be back in around forty minutes."
Before Vicky could respond, Cece ran out of the restaurant.
There were a few taxis waiting outside, so Cece caught a taxi right away.
"Vicky."
Just then, a familiar voice was heard from behind Vicky's back.
She turned around and saw an elegant-looking man staring at her. It was Sebastian.
