Chapter 369

• Mr. Adler reassured Jessica Barham, but what does that make me? I sneered inwardly. He knows very well that I don't like Jessica Barham, and he also knows that she has ulterior motives towards him. So why would he say such ambiguous things to her?
• Does Jessica Barham really hold such importance in his heart? Does she truly surpass me in his affections?
• I felt as if my heart was plummeting like a bungee jumper, the sensation of weightlessness was unbearable. I lost all sense of security, like a forgotten piece of driftwood floating aimlessly in the sea. I haven't felt this way in a long time. It was similar to when my mother left me, and now, Mr. Adler has dealt me such a painful blow.
