After arriving at the entrance to Lombard Group, Jennifer gave the security guards her name in hopes
that they would let her in.
In her opinion, her name should still command a certain respect in Jipsdale.
However, the security guards shook their heads upon hearing her name.
“I'm sorry, Ms. Whitley. Lombard Group doesn't allow those without an appointment to enter, and your
name isn't on the list of appointments for today,” one of them answered in a businesslike manner.
At that, she knitted her brows.
“I'm Jennifer Whitley from Whitley Group. Aren't you aware of my relationship with Mr. Tristan? Do I still
need to make an appointment to meet him?” she demanded furiously.
Nonetheless, the security guards nodded in response.
The one who had spoken earlier replied, “Lombard Group is different from Whitley Group. Anyone who
wants to enter must have a prior appointment. We're simply going by the rules and regulations, so
please don't make things difficult for us.” We've encountered visitors far more arrogant than her.
Having worked at Lombard Group for many years, they had met all sorts of people and thus were
unfazed.
“You... Just you wait. I'm going to call Mr. Tristan right this instance,” Jennifer snapped.
All I want is to meet with Tristan. I refuse to believe he'd be unwilling to agree to that much.
“You may do as you please,” that security guard replied, completely uninterested.
Nonetheless, Jennifer kept getting a busy signal when she tried calling, leading her to suspect that
Tristan had blocked her number.
Her expression turned grim as that thought crossed her mind.
How could Tristan go to such extremes? Even if we're just friends, a phone call isn't too much to ask,
right? How could he block my number?
The feeling of getting blocked by the person she liked was too bitter a pill to swallow, and Jennifer felt
as though she was about to lose her mind from fury.
She had never been so mortified.
Observing the look on her face, the security guards knew that her calls had not gone through.
“Look, Ms. Whitley. You're someone rather influential, so you shouldn't continue lingering here like this,”
one said. Truthfully, it's somewhat embarrassing for her to continue standing here.
Jennifer's expression turned even uglier, and she glared at them darkly.
“What's that supposed to mean? Are you insulting me now?” She was livid, having never been thus
humiliated.
The security guards shrugged.
“That's up to you. Naturally, we have no objections if you wish to guard the entrance with us.” After
saying that, they no longer paid her any mind.
Just then, Tristan strode out. He had just taken care of some urgent matters with Felix and the others,
and they were about to head out for a meal.
Felix was the first to spot Jennifer. “Isn't that Jennifer Whitley? What's she doing here? This woman
really doesn't know what it means to give up.”
Hearing that, Charles turned to look in the same direction.
“By the way, I heard she recently got into a car accident and injured her face. In that case, it'll be even
less likely for Mr. Tristan to fall for her,” he remarked. A woman has to know when to give up when a
man is not interested. Stubbornly persisting will only incur the other party's annoyance.
“You say that as though Mr. Tristan would've given her a chance if she didn't have an injury marring her
face,” Sean piped up, voicing Tristan's thoughts.
He's right. Even if she weren't disfigured, I wouldn't be the least bit interested.
“What are we going to do?” Felix asked with a frown. If we go out now, there's no doubt we'll get
pestered by that woman. She has no sense of decorum at all. She shouldn't be here!
“What do you mean? It's not like we're not going to eat just because of a woman!” Charles responded
nonchalantly.
Why should four grown men like us be afraid of a woman?
“Let's go,” Tristan said impatiently. He had no intention of wasting any time on Jennifer either.
What goes on in that mind of hers is her business. It has nothing to do with me. In the past, I turned a
blind eye to what Winter did for Charles' sake. But for this woman in front of me now, there's no need to
do that.
The four men were outstanding in their appearance, drawing everyone's attention whenever they were
together. All of them were tall, and each was more good-looking than the other.
Men like them would surely enjoy immense popularity if they ventured into the entertainment industry.
With their looks, wealth, and physique, they would have everyone drooling over them!
The security guards bowed at once when they saw the four of them walk out, and Jennifer fell into a
daze upon noticing Tristan.
It was as though no matter the time or occasion, his mere appearance would leave her utterly
entranced.
How can someone so dashing as him exist in this world?
A female employee remarked disdainfully, “What the heck! This woman is practically drooling while
ogling Mr. Tristan!”
Jennifer's face turned red immediately.
What am I doing? How can I do something so humiliating? This feeling sucks!
Determined to seek justice for the abuse she had suffered from Sophie earlier, she inquired, “Mr.
Tristan, may I have a few minutes of your time?”
Tristan's brows drew together as he glanced at her.
“Why is it that you don't know when to call it quits? Haven't I already told you before? No matter what
you do, it's all pointless. The only person in my heart is Sophie. There's no space for anyone else,” he
said.
When it came to Sophie, he was utterly loyal to her.
He would not give any other woman a chance nor allow himself to entertain such thoughts.
It was one thing for Jennifer to be aware of his feelings and another to hear him say it personally. After
she listened to those words, her heart shattered into a million pieces.
“Must you be so cruel to me, Mr. Tristan? I'm a woman too, and I need someone to care for me as
well,” she cried out. How can he be so ruthless? How can he hurt me so?
“Sophie is the only woman in my life. As for whether or not it hurts you to hear it, that's your business
and has nothing to do with me.”
With that, Tristan made to leave.
Suddenly, she remembered the purpose of her visit and exclaimed, “I have something to show you! It
won't take too much of your time.”
Felix was bereft of words.
She has truly gone too far.
“Jennifer, you're a well-known figure in Jipsdale, so you shouldn't embarrass yourself further. Not only
are you bringing shame to yourself but your family as well,” he cautioned kindly.
Worried Tristan would refuse to see what she wanted to show him, Jennifer blurted, “I honestly do have
something to show you, Mr. Tristan. Sophie isn't worthy of your affection. She has another man in her
life!”
As soon as those words left her mouth, she clearly felt a tense aura radiating from Tristan's body. Just
as I expected, no man would be impervious to such news. Sophie is well and truly doomed this time.
There's no way he'd still want her at this point.
Charles and Sean also frowned.
Hasn't it always been said that Ms. Whitley is smart as a whip? However, it doesn't look like she's the
sharpest tool in the shed. She's nothing but a fool!
