Chapter 121
Trevor knew what Jessica meant, but he pretended not to.
"I told you to explain, but not like this. Besides, we're not in that relationship you stated! What fiancee? Are you kidding me?" Jessica retorted.
"Why are you so difficult?" Trevor went back to typing on his laptop impatiently while pursing his lips. However, he was feeling jovial deep down. Meanwhile, Jessica was enraged by his remark. "What do you mean by I'm difficult? You're the one spouting nonsense!"
She thought that Trevor was rewriting the announcement post. However, she was stupefied when she saw the new post on his account the next moment. He wrote: "She got shy, so please give her some privacy?"
"What does he mean? Oh god, did he go insane? What does he want?!" she thought.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
"Mr. Gulliford, do you have comprehension
problems? Can't you understand what I mean?"
Although Jessica did not want to offend Trevor, if this continued, she might not survive in Herington until the day she could take back the Queen family's properties.
First of all, Maximilian would not tolerate her presence. The type of granddaughter-in-law he wanted was someone like Leah.
"No, I don't think so. Isn't this what you meant by explanation?" Trevor played innocent and lifted his eyebrow, looking handsome with his clean looks.
Jessica tightened her grip on her phone as her body trembled from anger.
She repeated a mantra in her mind, "Jessica, you must hold it in. Endure. You can't win against him!"
"Not like this." In the next moment, she lifted her head and forced herself to smile.
"Then what is it?" He was beyond shameless at this point.
"I mean it as in you should make it clear that we're only employerand employee. I'm not your fiancee, and you're not my fiance either. Mr. Gulliford, you might have forgotten that I already have a husband. If this gets out, you'll get criticized by the public." While speaking, Jessica spotted Bennett from the corner of her eyes, and she immediately became gentler as she continued, "Mr. Gulliford, I hope you understand that we are not meant for each other. I'm not interested in you."
Those words sounded painful in Trevor's ears. She just told him that she was not interested in him.
"Then who are you interested in?" he subconsciously asked.
"Him." There was no turning back, so Jessica lifted her head and signaled toward the incoming Bennett with her eyes.
She was not interested in Trevor and only in Bennett.

"A girl can dream. What if it came true, right?" Jessica nodded and
responded casually. She stood
straight and smiled at Bennett.
"Hello, Ms. Lockett," Bennett greeted her politely after reaching them.
He was a smart kid and tried to dissuade Jessica with the name he addressed her.
There was no way she could be his wife with their age gap-
However, Jessica remained smiling as she nodded enthusiastically. "Hello, Bennett."
"Where do Nose to him?" Trevor interrupted as he felt his mood
turning sour at Jessica's te
Bennett.
He wondered if he could not compare to his son.
"You're too old," Jessica answered without hesitation.
How could he be on par with Bennett? Bennett is so adorable and polite. Such an adorable child, she thought.
"I'm old?" Trevor jumped onto his feet from the chair and nodded in understanding.
It was as he guessed. Jessica disliked him because he was too old.
Alfred was younger, so maybe she preferred the younger ones.
