Chapter 167
Seeing Mikayla’s smile, Jensen couldn’t help but feel proud.
But he didn’t show it on his face.
He held back his excitement and said, “Ms. Davidson, I really like Louisa. As her cousin, you should hope for happiness, right?”
Mikayla was disgusted by what he said.
However, she didn’t sarcastically point out his stupidity, nor did she try to burst his bubble.
Instead, she maintained her smile and said, “Jensen, since you know what’s going on with
my marriage, then you must also know how deeply I feel for my husband.”
Mikayla had no choice.
She could only use Jerome as a shield.
“My feelings for him wouldn’t change because of anyone,” Mikayla added.
Upon hearing this, Jerome stayed quiet.
Although Kylie hadn’t told him anything and stopped him from asking too many questions, it didn’t stop him from investigating on his own.
He knew that Jerome didn’t care about Mikayla.
So, he thought that Mikayla wanted to use him to retaliate against Jerome, while also striking at Louisa.
After all, he had what it took.
Mikayla continued, “You did get one thing right. I don’t want to see you with Louisa because I don’t think you’re worthy of her.”
Jensen’s expression changed. “How am I not worthy?”
“You came to Marisville to start a business. But from what I’ve seen, you don’t actually seem to be interested in starting a business at all. All you cared about was having fun and hovering around Louisa.)
Mikayla continued, “At the parking lot, you saw Louisa’s admiration for Jerome. I believe she would only truly love a successful man.”

She deliberately brought this up.
She vaguely remembered that in her previous life, Matilda bragged that, not only was Louisa’s boyfriend from a good family, he was extremely accomplished.
He secured a pharmaceutical distribution right and investments for it shortly after coming
to Marisville.
In this current life, Kylie probably hadn’t begun scheming anything with Jensen yet, so he
hadn’t secured any distribution rights.
Mikayla wanted to speed up Jensen’s career.
Only then would Kylie start to consider this.
The more urgent the better.
As expected, Jensen’s expression soured after hearing what she said.
“Ms. Davidson, I just haven’t found the right business opportunity yet. I’m not as idle as you described. I’ll prove myself to you and Louisa!” Jensen said firmly.
Mikayla kept her smile.
“If you really develop a career, I believe that, not only Louisa, but also Uncle Stephen and Aunt Matilda will look at you differently. However, talking won’t bring you any success. I hope you won’t let Louisa look down on you again.”
Jensen felt extremely annoyed by Mikayla’s subtly condescending words.
He kept his cool and stood up.
He asked, “Ms. Davidson, do you need me to take you home?”
“Thanks, but there’s no need for trouble yourself. I drove here myself.” Mikayla declined politely.
She casually added, “Jensen, I remember you hadn’t had the chance to buy a car since coming to Marisville. Since you’re starting a business, wouldn’t it be more convenient for you to buy one. What do you think?”
“Of course.” Jensen forced a smile, “Ms. Davidson, then I’ll take my leave.”
“Okay.”
After Jensen left, Mikayla called Taylor.
Taylor got her into trouble with Jerome last time.
fter that, they haven’t contacted each other since.
Although both of them were present at the signing of Ansoft, they ignored each other.
This time, Taylor was the most suitable candidate for the matter.
Soon, the call connected.
Taylor’s lazy voice came through.
“What’s up?”
Mikayla asked, “Are you free right now?”
