Hearing this, Isabella shook her head and explained, "We used to be friends, but not anymore.
Nina seems to look down on me these days."
Isabella heard how aggrieved Jessica was when she found out that Nina was married to John. She actually fainted because she was so enraged.
This could only mean that Jessica hated Nina. Another factor was that Vivian said Jessica treated her as her sister-in-law, so she was definitely Jessica's first choice as John's wife.
Isabella was terrified of irritating Jessica so she had to explain herself.
"What? Just because she's John's wife, she thinks she can shun her friends?" Jessica always disliked Nina and this only added fuel to the fire.
Isabella hurriedly waved her hand with a trace of timidity in her eyes. "No, no. You've misunderstood Nina. If she hears about this, I'm afraid the Zhang family..."
She stopped herself before she said too much.
Vivian intently watched them talking. She thought she could possibly use Isabella in her scheme.
"Isabella, what
It seemed that she completely believed what Isabella said.
After taking a sip of red wine, Jessica began calming down. She glared at Vivian and asked, "Why aren't you anxious at all? Don't you like my brother?"
Vivian, who was pouring the wine, paused for a moment and looked over at Jessica. "He already has a wife and I can't interfere in his marriage. It will be disrespectful to even try."
Vivian, once again, had an aura of sensibility about her. Even when she lost her beloved to another woman, she didn't lose her demeanor as a graceful lady.
The more Vivian kept her cool, the more satisfied Jessica became. Only an elegant woman like Vivian could be a match for John.
"It is Nina who has interfered in your relationship. If it wasn't for her, you would have been engaged by now."
"Jessica..." Vivian raised her head, with tears welling up in her eyes.
Seeing Vivian so aggrieved, Jessica immediately said, "Vivi, go to the Stone Road with me tonight. I will help you take back what belongs to you."
