The Second Act Revenge (Oneida and Jackson) novel Chapter 362

Chapter 362 

The princess dress she wore was a high–end custom from a famous brand, accentuating her figure 

This entire ensemble clearly cost a fortune.. 

Jennifer walked down gracefully with a bright diamond crown on the top of her hair. 

“So beautiful.” Someone couldn’t help but comment. 

“She looks like a little princess. 

“The birthday girl today is so stunning.” 

Compliments echoed through the hall, and everyone’s eyes were on Jennifer. 

Beside her, Tatiana walked down with Jennifer, her gaze full of affection and pride for her daughter. 

Both mother and daughter were dressed to impress, capturing the attention of the entire room. 

Edmund had no interest in watching them. Instead, he turned to Oneida, wanting to say something, but hesitated. 

Oneida retracted her gaze, her indifferent expression showing no emotion. 

“Oneida?” Edmund called out tentatively. 

Oneida raised an eyebrow. “What’s up?” 

Edmund cleared his throat. “Are you alright?” 

He was worried that Oneida might feel hurt seeing this scene. 

After all, their mother was extremely partial to Jennifer and treated Oneida with an entirely different, harsh attitude. 

Even Edmund felt it was unjust for Oneida. 

Oneida’s face remained calm as she responded lightly, I’m perfectly fine.” 

Internally, Oneida felt no turmoil. 

She had long since removed Tatiana from the position of ‘mother‘ in her heart, so whatever Tatiana did no longer affected her emotionally. She viewed Tatiana as just another stranger. 

“I am grateful to everyone for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend my daughter’s birthday. It means a lot to us,” Tatiana said, her lips curling into a bright smile as she addressed the guests. 

Her smile was radiant 

In Oneida’s memory, Tatiana had never smiled at her like that 

For her, Tatiana only had harsh words and, most recently, a slap 

Oneida chuckled coldly, taking a sip of her tea with an elegant, nonchalant air. 

Lucas also entered the hall at this time, greeting familiar faces. 

Everyone seemed to have arrived.

Oneida’s eyes narrowed, sogling an air of readiness to stir things up. 

However, before Oneida could make a move, Jennifer’s gaze found her first. 

Jennifer’s face held a smile, but her eyes deliberately sought out Oneida. 

Oneida met her gaze with cold indifference. 

ees met in the air. 

Their eyes 

The next moment, Jennifer walked over to Oneida, 

Tatiana followed Jennifer, her eyes flashing with a cold light as she looked at Oneida with disdain. 

They hadn’t expected Oneida to actually show up.. 

They had assumed Oneida wouldn’t dare! 

Edmund saw them approaching and a hint of panic flashed across his face. 

He glanced at Oneida, his lips parting slightly. “Oneida, maybe you should head to the restroom for a bit?” 

He wanted to give Oneida an excuse to leave. 

Seeing Jennifer and Tatiana approach, he knew they were up to no good. 

With so many people watching, he didn’t want Oneida to be targeted. 

Oneida shook her head, “I’m not going.” 

“But- Edmund blinked, signaling Oneida to leave quickly. 

Oneida’s lips curved into a faint smile. As if reassuring him, she said lightly, “It’s fine.” 

Just as she finished speaking. Jennifer reached Oneida. 

“Oneida, I’m so surprised you came today. What a pleasant surprise,” Jennifer said, her smile a perfect mask of pretense, her words dripping with false sincerity. 

With Jennifer’s approach, everyone’s attention turned towards them. 

Christopher noticed Oneida sitting quietly in the corner at that moment. 

His eyes narrowed sharply, but he made no move. 

He sat there, poker–faced and still, his intentions unclear. 

Initially, Christopher hadn’t planned on attending Jennifer’s birthday party. 

But when Jennifer mentioned that Oneida might show up, he decided to come. 

However, he wasn’t there to see Oneida or to pester her again. 

He was just there to protect her. 

rty was more like a trap. 

He knew the Chaser family didn’t treat Oneida well, and this birthday party 

He feared Oneida might face humiliation. 

Chapter 362 

So, Christopher watcher silently, ready to step in if Jennifer made any trouble for Oneida. 

For now, he could only protect Oneida from afar. 

Meanwhile, Jennifer, her eyes twinkling mischievously, said, “Oneida, how come you dressed like that for my birthday party?” 

Her comment instantly drew the attention of everyone in the hall to Oneida’s outfit. 

Oneida wore a simple black suit, which starkly contrasted with Jennifer’s glamorous princess gown. 

However, Oneida had her natural beauty. 

She was naturally prettier than Jennifer, and even though her outfit was plain, her elegance was undeniable. 

Her delicate profile, illuminated by the lights, sparked hushed discussions among the guests. 

“Is that the Chaser family’s lost daughter?”
