The Unveiled Rose novel Chapter 311

"But that just makes me want to say it more! Listen, Jessica. I'll bring up what you two did every single time I see you."

I was tired of wasting time on her. "If you keep standing here and ruin my mood, I'll grab a microphone and tell everyone here exactly what you did."

Jessica's face turned ashen immediately. She quickly scanned the room to make sure no one was watching before hurrying away.

Moments later, Sasha joined me with her own plate of food. She dropped into the chair beside me before grumbling, "My dad just dragged me around and introduced me to everyone."

I smiled at her troubled face. "Aren't you annoyed?"

"God, yes!" Sasha grabbed my hand. "They all act so formal, saying things like 'Oh, I held you when you were a baby!' How am I supposed to remember that?"

Then, she continued, "I'd seem rude if I didn't say anything, so I just kept nodding."

She stabbed a piece of meat with her fork before shoving it in her mouth. "These events are awful. I'll never come to another one!"

Just as she finished speaking, Steven appeared. I dropped my smile. First the mistress, now the cheater.

Clearly, crowded events were not my thing. I looked away, planning to ignore him and get a fresh plate of food.

Having finished her food, Sasha crossed her arms while eyeing Steven with disgust. He looked decent enough, shame about his character though.

She knew Annalise was tired of Steven's pursuit and warned, "Stay away from Annalise. She's too kind to expose what you and that woman did, but I'm different! I'm not nice at all!

"I'll buy headlines on every news site and let everyone know what you did!"

Steven glared at her impatiently. "This is between me and her. It's none of your business!"
