Chapter 6 Please Don’t Let Mr. Hackett Know
During the wedding preparations, Jessica didn’t leave the house at all.
She didn’t step outside again until the night of the charity performance.
At the banquet, Stanley appeared with Yvonne. They sat side by side, gazing at each other and talking, appearing particularly affectionate.
“Mr. Hackett is clearly in love with the butler’s daughter, treating her so well.”
“That’s right. I heard the butler’s daughter was almost hit by a car recently, and Mr. Hackett confronted the other girl…”
When they saw Jessica coming in, everyone stopped talking.
“I wonder if there are any interesting activities in today’s charity banquet?” Someone suddenly asked.
“I heard that Mr. Keller specially invited the Jacobson Dance Troupe to perform in order to thank the people who saved him last time. I don’t know when they will start to perform.”
“Oh? That’s quite a show of gratitude indeed!”
“Of course. Mr. Keller said that he would go on stage to express his gratitude after the performance!”
Stanley’s face lit up when he heard this. He figured that once Mr. Keller took the stage to thank Yvonne, it would serve as an endorsement of her. From now on, outsiders would not dare to look down on Yvonne easily.
When Yvonne heard this, her face turned pale and her fingertips curled

with a faint smile on her lips, as if she was waiting to watch a show.
Upon hearing this, Jessica glanced as slightly flustered face,
Soon, the dance troupe took the stage, and Yvonne began to tremble. Seeing Stanley was watching with great interest, she bit her lip.
“Stanley, my stomach hurts…”
The slightly trembling eyes and the quivering thin lips instantly made Stanley so distressed that he forgot to think.
“I’ll take you to see a doctor right away.” Without another word, Stanley scooped Yvonne into his arms and rushed to the venue’s infirmary.
Until the dance ended and Mr. Keller went on stage to express his gratitude to Jessica, they did not come back.
After the banquet, Jessica waited alone by the roadside for the driver.
“Ms. Lindholm…”
Yvonne’s voice was heard behind her.
Jessica turned around and saw that Yvonne’s complexion had returned to normal. She couldn’t help but smile. “What, done pretending?”
Yvonne straightened her expression and suddenly asked, “You know something, Ms. Lindholm?”
Jessica pretended to be confused and asked, “What do you mean?”
As
soon as these words were spoken, Yvonne knew that she had heard everything that was said that day.
Suddenly, she took Jessica’s hand and begged, “Ms. Lindholm, you’re a

When Yvonne heard this, her face instantly turned gloomy. She looked at the vehicles on the side of the road and smiled, “Then don’t blame me.”
After saying this, she pushed Jessica into traffic before she could react.
A speeding car passed by, and Jessica was so scared that she was sweating all over. She quickly turned back to the side of the road and said, “Yvonne, do you know what you are doing?”
After living a new life, Jessica never expected Yvonne to be such a vicious person.
“It’s you, it’s all you. You were born with everything. I only have Mr. Hackett, and you are not willing to let me have him.” Yvonne roared almost crazily.
Jessica had returned to safety. Yvonne hesitated slightly when she saw a car speeding just a short distance away from them.
She used all her strength to push Jessica into the traffic again.
But this time she underestimated Jessica.
Jessica saw right through Yvonne’s intentions the moment her expression changed. This woman was too cruel, so she naturally had to be extremely careful.

When she reached out her hand again, Jessica grabbed her hand and used all her strength to turn around.
Yvonne never expected this to happen. By the time she reacted, she had already flown into traffic and collided with the car she had targeted.
