26. Fresh and Refined
“What?” Jessie looked at her in confusion as she put on her coat.
Sally had an ambiguous expression. “Him! Boss Alex! That night, he made a passerby like you a big star
in R City. You still want to play dumb with me? Hurry up, I will forgive you if you tell me the truth. If you
refuse to tell me the truth, I will not forgive you!”
Jessie rolled her eyes speechlessly, “Do you remember the two babies that came to find me in the coffee
shop? Boss Alex is their father.”
Furthermore, she still remembered that night when he righteously warned her not to get close to them.
She couldn’t wait to get far away from him. She wouldn’t even try to get close to him. Ridiculous!
“Ah!” All the pink love stories that Sally had fantasized about broke out one after another. Her shoulders
collapsed. “I forgot that I saw it on the Internet. Boss Alex is the father of the child. However, if it is a man
like Boss Alex, it doesn’t matter if he has stepmother, right?”
Jessie smiled, “If there is no harm, then you go?”
Sally thought for a few seconds and shrugged her head while drenched in sweat. “Then forget it.
Stepmother is not easy to be. Furthermore, those two children of his are two little devil kings. With my
hot temper, I can be arrested by the police at any time.”
“Then you are still egging me!”
“Forget it, forget it. Pretend that I did not say anything.” After packing their things, the two of them put on
their jackets outside their formal attire, picked up their bags, and walked out together.
A hotel’s security guard walked over, politely and respectfully inviting the two ladies to the banquet hall.
Sally looked at Jessie with an ambiguous smile.
Jessie hurriedly smiled and waved her hands. “Thank you. No need. We are not hungry.”
Security guard looked troubled and almost begged, “You two should go. Boss Alex had asked the chef to
prepare dinner for you alone. If I did not bring you there, I will be treated as if I did not do my job well. I
might lose my job.”
Sally knocked Jessie’s arm. “Since he said so, let’s go. Otherwise, won’t your conscience hurt i f he loses
his job? Furthermore, we haven’t eaten for a day. I am indeed hungry.”
Security guard saw Sally helping him and looked at Jessie with more sincerity and anticipation.
Jessie’s heart softened when they looked at her. “Alright then, let’s go over now.”
Because they were going to the banquet hall, there was standard clothing inside. Jessie and Sally took
off their coats again and continued to wear formal attire to follow him.
“Thank you! Thank you! Really thank you!” The security guard thanked them excitedly, as if h e was
afraid that they would go back on their word. He quickly went to the front and opened u p a path, “Follow
me.”
Jessie, “…”
Sally was speechless.”…”

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEver since Jessie’s performance ended, Yura and Hannah immediately came to the entrance of lounge.
When they heard that Boss Alex invited the two of them to the banquet hall, Yura and Hannah were so
jealous that their hearts twisted.
Just as security guard brought Jessie and Sally out, Yura hurriedly straightened her hair and clothes and
arrogantly blocked in front of him, “Do you know me? I am hungry, take me to the dining hall to eat!”
Yura’s family background was not bad. She was a female celebrity that her parents used all kinds of
resources to support and was very popular. Security guard naturally knew her. He was stunned and
answered honestly. “Sorry, I did not receive the notice to invite Miss Yura to the banquet hall.”
Sally could not help laughing and did not forget to ridicule Yura, “Boss Alex invited us but did not invite
you. You also want to go to the front hall to have a meal? Then you should have gone to hook up with
Boss Alex back then, and not blindly hook up with Mike, that grassroots with neither power nor status.”
Jessie also disliked Yura’s manner of stirring up trouble everywhere and did not stop Sally from mocking
her.
Yura’s face turned red and white and she glared at security guard even more fiercely, “Bring m e to the
banquet hall. I will give you the autograph photos!”
Sally laughed coldly. “Who cares about your autographed photos!”
“You b*tch, shut up!” Yura roared angrily.
Security guard was stunned.
Sally was gloating. Go on and insult us! If your fans expose you, you will be in trouble!
Hannah quickly pulled Yura’s sleeve and softly reminded, “Yura!”
Yura realized that she had cursed in front of a stranger and felt annoyed in her heart. Her expression
became even uglier and she warned the security guard, “Don’t tell others what I looked like just now.
Otherwise, I will make you suffer!”
Security guard’s impression of her beautiful image on the screen completely collapsed. He was very
disappointed in her. His face darkened. “I’m sorry, I didn’t receive any notice. I can’t bring Miss Yura in. If
Miss Yura wants to go… Go and find Boss Alex yourself. Boss Alex is still waiting to see Miss Jessie.
Please move aside and don’t delay Boss Alex from seeing Miss Jessie. I’m afraid Miss Yura cannot bear
the consequences!”
After saying that, the security guard forcefully pushed Yura and Hannah aside and protected Jessie and
Sally as they walked forward.
In the hotel, the security guard was a veteran and his martial arts was very good. With this push, Yura
and Hannah almost fell down.
When they stabilized their footing, the three of them had already walked far away and were almost at the
main entrance of the banquet hall.
Before entering the luxurious banquet hall, a tall figure walked out from the corner, “Jessie.”
This voice was very familiar to Jessie.
Her back froze.
Mike walked in front of her and saw her in a beautiful white dress. His expression instantly became even
more complicated and unwilling. “Jessie, I…”
“Yura and Hannah, those two bitches just left and you came again? Are you not done yet? Don’t you
want Jessie to be a little better? Let me tell you. You, Mike, are stupid, but it doesn’t mean that all the
other men in this world are as blind as you. The one who invited Jessie was Boss Alex. He was the top
Prince Charming that scum like you could never compare with in ten lifetimes! Even if you want to bully
Jessie again, Let’s see if you can do it!” Sally saw him and immediately became furious. She pulled
Jessie behind her and fiercely interrupted him.
When Mike heard her say that the man behind Jessie was really Alex, his heart immediately overturned
the Five Flavorings Bottle. He was filled with mixed feelings, and his expression became even more
depressed. His voice was somewhat dry and hoarse. “How could I possibly bully Jessie? In the past, it
was indeed because I was blind that I divorced Jessie. Now that I’m here… I don’t have any other
intentions. I just want to remind you. You can’t afford to offend a man like Alex, and you can’t take him
down either. I’ll admit it myself. As a man, he does have charm and conditions that all women can’t
resist. However, it’s better for a persont o know his own limitations.”
“Are you crazy? Whether Jessie can take down Musical Station or not has nothing to do with you. You
should take care of your own matters!” Sally could not bear to listen and directly
started to scold.
Jessie’s face was also cold. “I remember that after the divorce, I told you that we will go our separate
ways in the future. You have no right to interfere in my matters, please move aside!”
Mike was so embarrassed that his face turned red. “I’m just afraid that you will be hurt and want to care
about you.”
“Get lost. The person who hurt Jessie the most was you, Trash Mike. You still have the face to say that!”
Sally pulled Jessie and wanted to leave.
As she brushed past, Mike suddenly grabbed Jessie’s slender wrist and said in a low voice,” Jessie, I
really care about you…”
“Is Mr. Mike deaf or does he not understand human language?” The man’s cold and deep voice cut in.
Everyone was stunned.
Alex walked over and reached out his hand to grab Mike’s hand. The force seemed casual, but it actually
almost broke Mike’s wrist bone.
Mike felt intense pain and was forced to let go of Jessie’s hand.
Alex naturally pulled Jessie behind him and looked at Mike coldly. “Should I recommend an ear doctor for
you, or should I recommend a language teacher to teach you how to listen to people?”
Sally could not hold it in anymore and laughed. Boss Alex’s skill was so bad that it was too refreshing to
listen to.
IS S
Mike’s face turned red and white. He was also frightened by Alex’s oppressive aura. After being mocked
and scolded by him, his legs became weak and his voice became lower by a few degrees. “Sorry, sorry,
Boss Alex. I will definitely respect Jessie in the future…”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlex interrupted him and his dark eyes slightly withdrew. “Jessie what?”
Mike was so scared that his heart trembled. He quickly changed his words. “Sorry, I am saying that I will
respect Miss Jessie’s feelings in the future. I will try to learn to understand her words!”
Alex slowly straightened his actually neat suit sleeves. “Looks like you still need to learn how to listen to
people.”
“I was wrong. I was wrong, Boss Alex. I will definitely do what Miss Jessie wants in the future. I will never
pester her again!”
Jessie looked at Mike, who was humble and broke out in cold sweat. She did not know what t o feel in
her heart.
In a daze, her hand was held by a warm and dry big hand. He pulled her into the banquet hall.
Jessie only woke up when she felt countless burning eyes. Her hand was actually held by Alex. She was
so scared that her brain buzzed. She used all her strength to pull her hand out o
f his big palm.
When her small hand struggled free, Alex only felt that his palm was empty and a sense of loss arose in
his heart.
But he estimated that Jessie’s skin was thin. In front of so many people, she would not be willing to hold
hands with him and become the center of attention. He also did not force Jessie to hold hands with him
anymore.
The scene of Alex and Jessie interacting with each other today was beyond everyone’s imagination and
expectations.
When they saw the two of them holding hands, even though it was only for a short second, Actually,
everyone had already seen it in their hearts.
The friends and clients who were close to Alex immediately cảme over. They tried to get close to Alex or
make fun of him by using all kinds of methods to get information about Jessie’s identity and her true
relationship with him.
Alex had been in business for many years, and he had long mastered the ability to remain calm. He wore
a faint and charming smile, and was able to deal with these people with ease.
He also calmly multitasked. He secretly signaled Rick to take Jessie and Sally to the dinner table that
had been prepared.
In order to avoid being disturbed, Rick and the security guard, who had just brought the two i n, guarded
not far away. They did not disturb the two of them eating and also made others not dare to approach.
The dining table of the two ladies was set in a corner by the huge French window. The outside of the
window was brightly lit, and the banquet hall was bustling with noise and excitement
Although this place was isolated by Rick and the others, it was still quiet in a corner.
However, the various ‘passionate’ gazes that shot over from the banquet hall made Jessie feel as if she
was sitting on pins and needles.
How was he asking her to eat? It was as if he was asking her to eat a bomb.
The dishes cooked by the chefs of the hotel on the table were very delicious, but she was so frightened
that her taste was as good as chewing wax.
