Chapter 593 I Didn't Target You
Jessica's English had always been very good. In daily communication, except for the strange pronunciation of Chinese, she had been talking to Eliza and the others in English.
Eliza thought that Jessica could only speak English.
But she didn't expect that Jessica would also speak French.
Just now, she communicated with the waiter fluently. Moreover, she looked so familiar with everything here that she looked like a frequent visitor here.
Jessica looked as if she was home and did not show any signs of awkwardness. She enthusiastically welcomed everyone to their seats.
Eliza and Roseane exchanged glances.
"I can't believe you can speak French. What else can't you do?"
Roseane spoke out her doubts in a joking tone.
The smile on Jessica's face became a bit stiff, and she quickly said, "My grandfather is an ambassador. He knows a few languages. I've been following him since I was young, so naturally, I also know a few languages."
Lyric gave her an indifferent glance. "Then why didn't you mention it before? You need to report your skills to your manager so that the company can plan a more suitable development route for the artist."
Jessica gave an awkward smile. "I forgot."
Lyric picked up her attitude towards work with a serious expression on her face.
"Do you have any other skills?"
"Well... is playing games counted? I'm good at playing games!"
"Well, I guess so. It seems that the girl who's good at playing games can also attract fans."
She took out her mobile phone and looked at Jessica seriously. "Which game are you playing? Which server? Are you at the top level now? Are you playing with your phone or with your computer?"
Jessica said, "I'm already in the top ten!"
Lyric was speechless.
She did not know what to say.
Yessenia snickered and leaned over to take a look at Jessica's phone.
She saw that she had only reached the 200th level.
She hesitated for a moment before saying, "That's not particularly impressive, is it?"
Jessica's eyes widened. "My good friend is ranked in the top three!"
Yessenia said, "That's because you didn't add many friends."
Yessenia took Jessica's mobile phone and glanced at her list of good friends. There were only eleven people in total.
"That's it? She can easily get the first place!"
Yessenia explained this ranking mechanism to Jessica. In order to make Jessica understand it faster, she specifically asked Liliana, "Liliana, do you play Stars Killer?"
Liliana curled her lips. "I don't play such a childish game."
Yessenia was speechless.
Jessica blinked her eyes. "Is it childish? I think it's very interesting."
For Liliana and Braint, who could do anything on the Internet, it was indeed a little childish.
Demarion was also a little unconvinced and said, "I also think it's fun. It's not childish at all!"
Yessenia heaved a sigh of relief and asked Demarion, "Which level are you at now?"
"Over 4,000."
Jessica's eyes suddenly widened. "This actually has more than four thousand levels?"
Yessenia didn't know what to say.
Liliana curled her lips and said, "How can you say that it's not childish when even Demarion is also playing it?"
With a frustrated look on her face, Jessica looked at Lyric. "Then can I still be the gaming girl who can attract more fans?"
Lyric said, "... After thinking about it, I think being a mixed-race genius is more suitable for you."
"Is that so? It doesn't sound bad either." The card blinked.
The topic of how Jessica knew different languages easily passed, and everyone began to discuss new topics.
There was a beep.
Jessica received a text message and Yessenia subconsciously glanced at it and found that it was spam.
Just as she was about to return the phone to Jessica, she saw Jessica excitedly grabbing the phone, as if she was afraid that Yessenia would see something.
Yessenia was stunned, and the others also paused.
Eliza's brows had already creased.
She felt more and more strange about the recent behavior of Jessica.
Seeing the content of the text message, Jessica was relieved.
When she realized that her reaction was too extreme, she immediately explained to everyone, "Sorry, I thought it was a text message from my family."
Sawyer had been staring at Jessica indifferently. Seeing this, he said coldly, "Is your family's text message so shameful?"
Jesssica was stunned for a moment and looked very sad.
"Mr. Lopez, have I offended you before?"
Sawyer didn't say anything.
"Is it because of what happened before that caused a misunderstanding between you and Lyric? Is that why you've been targeting me?"
After saying this, Eliza couldn't help but ask, "What misunderstanding? Is there something I don't know?"
Jessica told her that she had met Sawyer in the company and wanted to help him wipe his nosebleed, but was seen by Lyric.
"At that time, Lyric scolded him for being dirty and a jerk. I saw that they're still not reconciled, so did Mr. Lopez get angry with me because of this?"
Sawyer's face turned cold. He felt ashamed that the matter of him and Lyric having a falling out had been exposed in front of so many people.
"You think too much. I didn't target you. I just feel that there are too many things unreasonable about you."
After Sawyer finished speaking, he looked at Lyric and said, "And there is no misunderstanding between me and Lyric."
Hearing this, Lyric sneered and echoed, "There is indeed no misunderstanding. We have made everything clear."
Sawyer could sense Lyric's cold attitude and felt very uncomfortable. He couldn't help but step forward and grab Lyric's arm.
"Come out with me."
At this point, they had to talk privately to solve the problem between them.
Lyric began to struggle, her expression full of impatience.
Eliza saw this and advised, "Lyric, let's make things clear. After all, you've known each other for so many years."
Hearing Eliza's words, Lyric fell silent.
Sawyer pulled her out of the room.
The two of them went to the corridor to chat privately. Eliza then explained to Jessica, "The problem between them will not be vented on you."
"But Sawyer's attitude was indeed not very good just now. I apologize on his behalf."
Jessica quickly waved her hand and said, "It's okay. It's partially my mistake too."
Eliza didn't go deep into this topic. Instead, she asked, "You seem to be waiting for your family's text message. Did something happen?"
After a moment of hesitation, Jessica finally replied honestly, "To tell you the truth, I'm waiting for my fiance's text."
Eliza had a face full of questions. "What fiance?"
"Mommy, Jessica said before that her family forced her to get married. She came to the Krine to escape from the marriage."
Liliana explained to Eliza.
Eliza looked at Jessica in surprise. Jessica nodded to Eliza.
"Then who is your fiance? Are you going to compromise now?"
Jessica shook her head and replied to Eliza, "It seems that Andrew also came to Krine. But he told my father that he took a fancy to another woman, so he wanted to break off the engagement with me."
"There seem to be a lot of people abroad who are named Andrew."
Eliza sighed and said, "But this Andrew shouldn't be a simple character for your family to force you to marry him, right?"
