Chapter 1282: Chapter 1281: Why Are You Pretending to Be a Fan to Approach Me?
In order to successfully catch Valentina’s attention, Jenny York deliberately brought a notebook when she went out, and even wrote Easton Holmes and Lily Turner’s names on it. She was sure that once Valentina saw those two names, there was no way Valentina would ignore her.
Sure enough, the moment Valentina saw Easton Holmes and Lily Turner’s names written on Jenny York’s notebook, she froze on the spot, and her pupils suddenly contracted.
"Miss Valentina! Can we find a place to have a talk?" Seeing the obvious reaction from the other party, Jenny knew her chance had come. While Valentina was staring blankly at the names on the notebook, she seized the opportunity and went with the flow to invite her.
Valentina wasn’t stupid. Right now she was certain that the woman in front of her had come specifically for her. As for why she’d come looking for her, she could more or less guess a bit in her heart, but as for the exact situation, she wasn’t all that clear.
"...Alright."
Valentina hesitated for a moment, but in the end she still nodded and agreed.
Seeing the other party accept her invitation, Jenny York was instantly overjoyed inside, but on the surface she tried her best to stay calm. She forced herself to rein in her excitement so Valentina wouldn’t see through her.
They found a café and the two of them sat down.
"Go on then, you pretended to be a fan just to approach me—what exactly do you want?" After the waiter brought the coffee to the table and left, Valentina took the lead and asked bluntly.
Jenny hadn’t expected the other party to be this direct, but it actually made her feel relieved. At least she didn’t have to beat around the bush figuring out how to start.
"Do you hate Lily Turner?" Since the other woman was being so straightforward, she saw no need to be coy either.
"Why should I hate her?" Valentina stirred the coffee in her cup with a little spoon, her eyes fixed on the movement of her own hand. She looked completely nonchalant, but only she herself knew just how much this matter was weighing on her mind.
Seeing this, Jenny’s brows suddenly furrowed. "Because she stole your man. I don’t believe you don’t hate her."
While she spoke, her gaze stayed locked on the woman opposite her, not daring to look away for even a second. She didn’t want to miss the slightest change in expression on Valentina’s face.
Valentina might be lowering her head to watch her own hand, but she knew Jenny York sitting opposite had been staring at her the whole time. Waves were already surging in her heart, yet she forced herself to stay calm.
She still didn’t know what the other woman was trying to do, didn’t know what her real intentions were—she didn’t even know who this woman was.
"From the way you’re talking, it sounds like you really hate Lily Turner. Don’t tell me you’re also into Easton Holmes?" Not knowing who the other woman was, she could only probe her identity. From the questions Jenny asked, it wasn’t hard to tell that this woman hated Lily Turner a lot.
The only reason for such hatred that she could think of was that this woman also liked Easton Holmes. She couldn’t think of any other reason why this woman would hate Lily so much.
"I think you’ve misunderstood me. That’s also my fault, for not introducing myself first." Being mistaken by Valentina as someone who liked Easton Holmes left Jenny a bit speechless, but she didn’t dwell on it. After saying that, she introduced herself.
"My name is Jenny York, I used to be Lily Turner’s very best friend—but now the two of us are sworn enemies." She not only gave her name, she also laid out her past and present relationship with Lily Turner perfectly clearly.
