Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Everyone was surprised by the trio’s personalities, but Emma seemed to have not noticed their gazes and remained as enthusiastic as ever.
“Come, come, let me introduce you.”
She pointed to the two people sitting at the end of the sofa.
“These are David and Serena. They are my best friends and are very kind and warm-hearted. So if you encounter any problems at the party later, you can ask them for help. I believe they will definitely be able to help you solve the problem.”
Emma then came to Jacques’s side.
“Look at this little handsome boy, he’s one of the most popular boys in our school. Isn’t he handsome?”
When she said this, Emma even winked at Le Wan.
“In school, the handsome Jacques has attracted the attention of so many girls.”
Le Wan observed Jacques for a moment and nodded.
“Indeed, he’s very sunny and handsome.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a tight grip on her arm. She looked down in surprise. It turned out that Zhai Jing was a little jealous when he heard her praising another boy in front of him.
On Jacques’s side, as the one being praised, he didn’t feel happy at all. Instead, he looked at Emma who was acting a little strange. He looked at the two of them suspiciously, and sure enough, Emma pointed to his side in the next second.
Laura’s body subconsciously stiffened for a moment. Jacques, who was very close to her, noticed this and frowned as he looked at Emma in disapproval.
Unfortunately, his protectiveness of Laura would only agitate Emma even more. Thus, Emma acted as if she didn’t notice his emotions at all and continued to introduce enthusiastically,
“Look, this Laura, she’s a loyal supporter of our Jacques clan. Our Jacques’ feelings for her are not ordinary.”
“Oh my!”
As soon as Emma finished her sentence, Jacques loudly called her name, his tone full of warning.
Seeing this situation, William, who was beside him, echoed,
“Isn’t Emma telling the truth? Jacques, not only do you treat Laura differently, but you’re also especially concerned about her.”
Le Wan looked at the two of them, then nodded sincerely.
“You two are indeed a good match. I wish you all the best.”
Emma’s expression changed. Even though she had a new target now, it didn’t mean that Emma had forgotten the humiliation of Jacques ending his ambiguous relationship with her and then turning to Laura.
Le Wan’s words were like a knife, stabbing straight into her heart.
Emma wasn’t sure if Le Wan really didn’t notice anything, or if she did it on purpose. She stared at the side of Le Wan’s face, wanting to confirm something. However, after Le Wan said that, she looked at Jacques and Laura curiously, as if what she said just now was just a casual remark.
On the other hand, Laura lowered her head shyly as she tidied up her bangs. Jacques, who was beside her, said in a very calm tone as if he was just casually saying,
“Laura is my friend. Don’t say such things that will easily cause misunderstandings.”
Laura’s face turned pale, and the scene fell silent for two seconds. Everyone’s eyes kept moving between the three.
Ever since Jacques had brought Laura into their group, Emma had always been at a disadvantage. Everyone was more inclined to believe that Jacques was really going to side with Laura and give up on Emma.
He didn’t expect Emma to invite a few guests to the party. The situation was reversed.
Emma was stunned for a moment. She had thought that Jacques would be able to hold on for a little longer. However, before she could even make a move, this man had already laid down his arms and surrendered. Was he going to abandon Laura?
However, this was clearly in line with Jacques’s usual style. Back then, the two of them were able to see eye to eye with each other, and even get entangled with each other for such a long time. This meant one thing, and that was that she and Jacques were very similar.
Therefore, in Emma’s opinion, Jacques would never really fall in love with Laura. The only reason he dragged Laura into their game was to stimulate her.
However, he didn’t expect that Emma had her own pride. She wouldn’t allow Jacques to do such a thing to embarrass her..
