Chapter 356

Author: Cotton
Jessie pretended not to care, but she had stopped replying to her messages.

"You want my sister to explain for you? Does she seem like someone who likes to meddle in this kind of thing? Let me tell you something, it's not your fault that other women are drawn to you, but if you don't know how to control yourself, then it is your fault!" Mark's tone over the phone was indignant.

"I don't even have to ask her. Her roommate walked right into my ward and said you went to an art exhibition together. Yeah, my sister was there too, but that doesn't make it okay. You should've left immediately and let the girls hang out on their own."

Mark's voice carried authority. "Anyway, I don't care what you think. From now on, don't hang out with Shirley. She's nothing but trouble. She's trying to flirt with both you and Henry."

At the mention of Henry, his arrogant attitude faded instantly.

"Uhh. Henry came by to see me, but he didn't say much," he muttered before hanging up. He then glanced at Jes

    Shirley pouted. "Do you mean your boyfriend?""His family," Jessie said calmly. In truth, she didn't like how Ronny and Jack were toying with Shirley, but she also thought Shirley had brought it on herself."Oh. How much is the gown, and what brand is the jewelry?" Shirley asked.Jessie had no idea about any of that.She couldn't even remember the names of most luxury brands."I don't know. I don't recognize those brands," Jessie answered honestly."You're truly clueless. Do you even know what brands and prices the gown and jewelry I picked for you are? Don't wear what your boyfriend's family gave you. I bet they're not as expensive as mine, and you'll feel proud wearing what I gave you at the party.""How are you so sure her boyfriend's family's gifts aren't as expensive as yours? Sounds like you know her boyfriend pretty well," Lucy said sarcastically."I just do. So what? If you're so capable, why don't you find out yourself?" Shirley shot back.Every time she offered Jessi

    "Shirley's always pulling petty tricks. Why should I waste my time on people like that?" Jessie asked calmly.She wasn't like them. After all, she'd spent three years in prison. Her mindset was nothing like those carefree girls from rich families.Ronny couldn't help but laugh. "So you're saying you're above arguing with people like her, aren't you?""I'm saying I don't have the time to bother with things or people who aren't worth my attention," Jessie corrected him.Jack didn't like the sound of that.Was she really not worried that someone might try to steal him away?When she mentioned things not worthy of her attention, was she referring to Shirley's flirting with him? Did she truly not care?The weekend passed quickly.On Monday, Jack drove Jessie to school. Just as she was about to get out, he said, "I'll stop by tonight to pick up your laundry, okay?""I bought a mini washer online. It's small enough to sit on my desk." She'd placed the order yesterday. It should be ar

    "Oh." Jessie closed her eyes. "I'm going to sleep.""Aren't we doing anything else?" Jack asked."I'm still young. I've got four years of college ahead of me. I don't want to get pregnant, so don't you dare try anything." Jessie's eyes stayed shut, but her tone carried a clear warning.Jack almost laughed at her words."I miss the days when I was your boss." His tone softened with a hint of regret. "Back then, you'd never dare talk to me like this. You were obedient and always put me first."Jessie said nothing."Times have changed. The moment we got married, my status plummeted. The change is pretty hard to accept," Jack complained.Jessie kept her eyes closed with her brows furrowed tightly, but she didn't say a word.To be fair, Jack had done a lot for her.But Jessie wasn't the forgiving type. She could hold a grudge over something minor.After everything that had happened with the Stewart family, she couldn't help but think that if Jack had done something like that once,

    "I can teach you once, but not twice. When it comes to relationships, you'll have to figure it out yourself," Ronny said. As soon as he saw Jessie coming back, he straightened up in his seat."And one more thing, she's probably staying with Mark because she feels guilty. You should take that into account," he added.Jack thought to himself that bringing Ronny along today had definitely been the right call.After dinner, Jack drove Ronny back to the courtyard house and took Jessie along as well."Mark's still alone in the hospital," Jessie said to Jack. "I don't feel at ease leaving him there.""I've already spoken to the staff at the hospital. The doctors are keeping an eye on him. You don't need to worry," Jack replied."Exactly. They've been paid, so of course they'll take good care of him. As for his leg, we're still looking for the best treatment options, so don't stress over it."Jessie didn't say anything more. She simply fell silent.When they reached the courtyard, Ronn

    "You already have the answers, so why are you still hesitating? Hurry up and fix this mess," Ronny said to Jack."Ronny, did you come all the way here just to play peacemaker? You've got too much free time, haven't you? If you're really that free, find a hospital for Mark or stay here and take care of him. I want to go back to college." Jessie wasn't interested in arguing about this anymore.Jack glanced at Jessie's indifferent expression. He then turned to look at Ronny.Ronny rubbed his nose. "I'm not exactly free, but if you're tired of staying in the hospital, I can help find the best professional nursing team for Mark. How about that?""Forget it," Jessie replied.As the three of them talked, they stepped into the elevator.Ronny moved to the side and left the spot beside Jessie for Jack."As for Shirley, I've already told you. She's been talking to Ronny, not me." Jack broke the silence."I was never mad at you over Shirley." Jessie was genuinely puzzled. She didn't under
