Even though he was successfully persuaded to stay in Jeneration Group, he still hated Eustace.
You’re so Shameless
Danika left the hotel after finishing her talk with Alfred.She needn’t worry about what would come next.
What she had to worry about now was how to tackle the party tonight.
Although the party hadn’t yet started, Danika could guess that it would be a battlefield.
Rowena and Jolene would never let her go.
They’d be causing trouble for her.But Danika need not worry.She’d put out the fires one by one.She wasn’t really concerned about that duo.But what she couldn’t do tonight was give them their satisfaction.
This was her first time showing herself before Bardoff City’s elites.She couldn’t disappoint anyone.Her phone rang.It was a stranger’s number.She hesitated for a while before picking up.
“Who is it?”
“It’s me, Jolene.”
Jolene’s voice sounded through the speaker, oozing honey.Someone else might think it was cute, but Danika thought it was gross.But she did not say it out loud.
“Why are you calling me?”
“Well, we’re going to that party tonight, and I thought that since you’re new here, you wouldn’t have your own stylist.I was just going to ask if you wanted to come with me.”
Jolene hated her from the depths of her heart, but she had to call Danika to act like she was being mature in Graham’s eyes.Danika said nothing.
Jolene continued, “This party is not like the other ones.You have to dress up.We’re the daughters of the Zellweger family.We can’t embarrass ourselves.”
Jolene didn’t think that Danika had even attended a party like it.Perhaps she hadn’t even attended such an important event.Jolene truly looked down on her.She wished that Danika would refuse.
That way, she would embarrass herself.
“Is that so? Alright.You can ask the driver to come and get me.”
Danika didn’t hold herself back.
Although she could contact her own stylist, Jolene wanted to play nice.How could Danika let an opportunity like that slip? Jolene was a little upset when Danika accepted the offer.
“I’ll send the address to you.You can come over by yourself.”
Did she honestly want the driver to go get her? Did she think she was really a part of the Zellwegers now?
“It’s my first time in Bardoff City, Jolene.I’m unfamiliar with the place.Didn’t you say that yourself?” Danika asked.
Since Jolene wanted to play nice, she had to be patient.It’d be useless if she couldn’t stomach even this tiny thing.
Jolene gnashed her teeth.
“You’re right.I’ll get the driver to fetch you.”
“That’s great.Thanks, sister.”
Danika hung up the phone smiling.She could only guess how angry Jolene was.But she didn’t mind.
In fact, she thought it was amusing.Not long after, the Zellwegers’ car stopped in front of Danika.
The driver opened the door for her, revealing Jolene in the car.
“You’re so shameless, sister.You wanted me to fetch you personally,”
Jolene sneered.She felt agitated.
Danika didn’t care.She got in and said calmly, “You wanted to take care of me.How could I refuse?”
“You!”
Jolene was angry.
Since when had she said that she would take care of Danika?
“Start the car,” Danika said to the driver.
“There’s not much time left.Jolene needs a lot of time getting ready.”
Jolene thought that she was just spouting nonsense at first, so she didn’t argue with her.
But after a while, she began suspecting something.
What did Danika mean by saying that Jolene needed a lot of time getting ready? Wasn’t she just calling her ugly?
No Wonder Dad Didn’t Know if She Was Related
She wanted to burst into anger, but the moment had passed.
If she exploded now, she would seem stupid.
She had no choice but to gnash her teeth and glare at Danika in hatred.
Indeed, Danika did not think she was very smart at all.
She didn’t care even if Jolene glared at her.
She scrolled on her phone, ignoring her.
Soon after, the car arrived at the styling salon.
It seemed famous in Bardoff City.
When Danika arrived, a lot of people were already there.
But Jolene was an exclusive VIP in the salon; she had special privileges.
They had a private dressing room all to themselves.
Shockingly, there were other people in it.
“Why are you only arriving just now, Jolene? We’ve been waiting for you.”
Someone walked up to Jolene and wrapped their arm around hers affectionately.
They were all Jolene’s friends.
They had come here to stand up for her.
Jolene glared at Danika, then said innocently, “Oh, you guys know that my sister just arrived in Bardoff City.
She’s not too familiar with the roads here.
My father made me bring her.”
“Oh.”
They all looked at Danika.
Danika didn’t wilt under their gazes.
She looked right back at them and smiled, nodding as a simple greeting.
They were stunned.
She wasn’t like the country girl they had imagined.
But they didn’t care about it.
They had to stand up for Jolene.
“Oh, so you’re Jolene’s sister? You don’t look similar to each other at all.”
“Really? No wonder dad didn’t know if she was related to us,”
Danika retorted shamelessly.
It wasn’t her problem if they didn’t look alike.
It was Jolene’s problem.
The girls’ faces shifted into ugly expressions, especially Jolene’s.
She looked at Danika, upset, and said, “How could you say that, Danika? I grew up with my father by my side.
Who would I be if I weren’t related to him?”
“Don’t be angry, Jolene.
You must understand that your sister grew up in a village.
She probably didn’t have a good education.
