Chapter 68
Sheena teased, “I’m looking forward to that. But before that, I have something to share with you.”
Jennifer took a couple of steps back, maintaining a cautious distance and sounding slightly skeptical. “What is it?”
To outsiders, it seemed like the two were exchanging whispered secrets.
Then, Sheena unlocked her phone and presented a photo to Jennifer, grinning as she asked, Isn’t this rather interesting?”
“You!” Jennifer glanced at the photo and could not hold back her boiling anger. She could not believe Sheena actually dared to taunt her with a picture of her recent humiliation!
Driven by frustration, Jennifer reached out to snatch the phone.
Sheena was one step ahead, swiftly reclaiming her phone.
“You’ve gone too far!” Jennifer exclaimed, missing her target. With her frustration boiling over, she hurled the wine in her hand toward Sheena.
Skye, seated nearby, saw everything clearly and was about to intervene.
Splash!
The wine smudged Jennifer’s delicate makeup and stained her pale–yellow dress.
Jennifer wiped the wine off her face, completely stunned.
In that split second, Sheena held her hand and wasted no time in flinging her own glass of wine directly at Jennifer’s face.
Sheena was simply too fast!
Jennifer was absolutely outraged.
The commotion drew the attention of nearby guests, and Jennifer’s furious glare turned into a pitiful expression.
“Sheena… I just hoped you would let Eli and me be. Why did you have to do this?” Jennifer’s voice quivered as she began to sob.
Onlookers gathered around, eager for more drama.
Seeing the scene unfold, many assumed that Sheena was the aggressor. After all, Skye was known as a troublemaker himself. It would not be surprising if his female companion were equally problematic.
A group of people started criticizing Sheena.
Sheena simply cast a cold glance as she could not be bothered to refute her claims. “Aren’t you tired of using the same trick?”
An empathetic guest handed Jennifer a handkerchief.
As Jennifer wiped the wine off her face, she continued to whimper, “I don’t understand what you mean, Sheena. I just want you to let Eli go. I truly love him, and our engagement ceremony is approaching. Can’t you just wish us well?”
It sounded as if there was more to this story, and the crowd was engrossed in the unfolding drama.
Upon hearing the commotion, Vanessa rushed over and was shocked to find Jennifer soaked in wine. “What’s happening?”
Jennifer was about to explain, but Skye spoke up first, his tone icy and his gaze burning with rage.
“The Moore family is rather audacious! First, you tried to smear my companion’s name by accusing her of wearing a knockoff gown, and you’re now playing the victim. Are you trying to provoke my family, the Zimmers? I won’t forget this!”
He snorted disdainfully, dragging Sheena away without even looking back.
The other guests did not dare challenge the little tyrant, quickly making way for them.
Vanessa had just arrived, and she looked utterly bewildered when she heard Skye’s response.
What was going on?
Could it be that Jennifer was not the one being bullied?
