Chapter 643


    As soon as she said that, and before the people could react, Jessica lunged toward Roxanne.


    Jack had pushed her closer to Roxanne just now, so there was no one between the two.


    By the time Larry turned around upon hearing themotion, Jessica was already a hair’s breadth


    away from Roxanne.


    “Roxanne, watch out!” Larry cried out, barely managing to pull Roxanne behind him.


    At the same time, Jack walked over and gripped Jessica’s arm. “Are you done?”


    Jessica ended up lunging toward an empty spot and was even berated by Jack. Her anger reached its


    peak, and she burst into tears. As she bawled, she pointed at Roxanne and continued cursing.


    There were people walking out of the hotel, and when they noticed themotion, they stopped in


    their tracks to watch the drama.


    Roxanne stood behind Larry, her heart still


    racing. She noticed that there were more and more people gathering around them, and she knew that


    she had to step forward and end the scene.


    If things were to continue, Roxanne could not imagine what rumors would spread


    tomorrow.


    With that thought in mind, Roxanne took in a deep breath to recollect herself before stepping out from


    behind Larry.


    “How dare youe out? This is all because of you. You seduced Jack!” Jessica shrieked.


    Jack furrowed his brows and tightened his grip on her arm.


    It was his first time encountering something like this, and he frankly had no idea how he should clear


    things up.


    Right as he was overwhelmed by his dilemma, Roxanne’s calm voice sounded.


    “Ms. Hightower, I’ve already told you that we’re only business partners. At most, we’re friends. If I was


    really seducing Mr. Damaris, Mr. Morrison wouldn’t be standing here now.”


    Roxanne pinched her palm to calm herself down. “Moreover, even if I’m in a rtionship with Mr.


    Damaris, you have no reason to act like a madwoman here. I mean, who are you to chide me?”


    Herst question hit the bullseye.


    “I…” Tears stained Jessica’s face, and she failed to continue her sentence.


    In the end, she grabbed the hem of Jack’s shirt desperately and mumbled despairingly, “Jack, I like


    you. How can you do this to me?”


    Nevertheless, regardless of how polite Jack was, he could no longer keep up with the courteous


    demeanor in the face of a drunk, troublesome woman.


    He only swallowed and frowned in silence as he held himself back to the best of his ability while


    Jessica continued to cling to him.


    Right then, a group of men in suits came out of the hotel.


    The man walking in the front of the group had been chatting with the people when he turned to see that


    the hotel entrance was blocked by a crowd. Instantly, his


    expression turned cold, and he turned to question the hotel manager, “What are those people doing?


    Why are they blocking the hotel entrance sote at night?”


    The manager nced at the man who spoke and exined weakly, “Someone’s drunk and causing a


    scene by the entrance. We’ve sent our staff members to deal with it, but…”


    The patrons that the hotel served were rich and powerful, so none of the staff members dared to resort


    to force, and their efforts to persuade Jessica to stop fell short.

    The manager hesitated for a beat before suggesting tentatively, “Mr. Farwell, if you don’t mind, you can


    exit through our employee’sne. It’ll be faster.”


    Lucian nced at the faraway crowd and drew his brows together in disdain.
