A Trust-fund Baby

Chapter 31 Quirky Jessica

On Monday morning, as soon as Judson just arrived at the company, he received Jessica's WeChat

message, "Hahaha, Uncle, I'm becoming a regular employee, a regular one. I'm so happy. Uncle,

you're so great. You said I would become a regular employee this week. And what you said came true.

Hehehe, what do you want to eat? Order whatever you want… "

Judson laughed and shook his head, wondering how the girl would be so happy about becoming a

regular employee. It was just simple for him. But it was very important to Jessica.

Judson burst out laughing and said back, "Order whatever I want? Hmm, I'd like a lobster, abalone, and

a steak… ”

Jessica sent a bunch of pitiful emojis over, "Well, Uncle, I can't afford to pay them… "

Judson replied, "Haha. Then, dunked dumplings?”

...

In the next few days, Jessica chatted with Judson every day on WeChat. Judson's mood also gradually

improved. This time, after Jessica got acquainted with him, she no longer called him uncle. Instead,

she called him brother...

Jessica was a very lively little girl and Judson was willing to talk to her. Whenever he was with her, he

was relaxed and not so depressed.

Ever since Jessica knew what was on Judson's mind, she used all kinds of ways to make him happy.

Every day, she bounced around in front of him.

Jessica ran up to Judson like a little rabbit in the sunshine and asked with her mouth pouted, "Brother,

do you think I am cute?"

Jessica, who was addicted to TikTok, asked Judson to film with her, "Hey, Brother, why don't you take a

TikTok video for me? Let's make a series of "Don't Know”. Don't you understand? It's just that I walk in

front and you pretend to flirt with me in the back and ask me for a WeChat account or something. And

then I refuse you. What do you think?"

Jessica, who wanted to go to a nightclub, said to Judson cutely, "Brother, I want to go to a nightclub!

I'm an adult! I'm about to graduate from college. Please take me with you. Please? No? Then, I will beg

again."

...

As Judson got along with her, he felt that his head ached. Over these days, he had been walking

around with Jessica. He either accompanied her to go shopping, or took her to nightclubs, or filmed

TikTok videos for her...

There were times when Judson wondered how many unreliable thoughts were in Jessica's head.

Jessica was smiling most of the time. But she cried sometimes. For example, when she took Judson to

see a film named "The Girl We Chased Together Those Years'', she was teary-eyed. Tears flew down

from her two big laughing eyes and dropped into a large bucket of popcorn she was holding in her

hand.

Then she cried while eating the popcorn stained with tears...

She was still crying after she left the movie theater. Then all the people around her looked at her very

strangely. Judson felt awkward and dragged her out.

Judson said to her speechlessly, "That's a movie! Don’t be so serious, okay?"

“I know it's a movie. But I just can't help but cry… Popcorn is so delicious... "

Judson fiercely slapped his forehead, feeling helpless. Jessica was so quirky. The previous second,

she was sad and crying. The next second, she was fiercely enjoying popcorn…

Judson only saw Jessica crying this time. And he couldn't help but think to himself that she was a child

after all. Moreover, she was also open-minded and wasn’t afraid of being abducted by him.

...

It was another Friday night. And Judson and Jessica went to the same restaurant last time for dinner.

It was just that Jessica’s face was not good this time. It seemed that there was something on her mind.

And she barely talked. When Judson asked her what had happened, she was silent and stared at a

group of girls who were celebrating the birthday in a private room across them in a daze...

It was eleven o'clock at night after Jessica returned to the university dormitory after drinking with

Judson. She had been in a daze on her way back. She was the same even after going back to the

university dorm.

As soon as Jessica lay down, her roommate next to her, Taylor, asked her excitedly, "Jessica, it is your

birthday tomorrow. What are you going to do?"

Jessica's heart was pounding. And she was somewhat evasive, "Well, I won’t celebrate it… "

Taylor sat up straight away, "How does that work? You haven't had a birthday celebration in the last

three years. Don't worry. You don't have to worry about it. I'll do it for you… "

Taylor knew what was on Jessica's mind. And she also knew the situation in her family.

"It happens to be Saturday tomorrow. We don't even have to go to the internship. We’d better get

together for dinner tomorrow and then go singing in the evening… I'm going to contact the people for

you and I definitely will make arrangements for you…" Taylor excitedly went to play with her phone...

Jessica quickly asked anxiously, "Hey, you didn't inform Bruce, did you?" Bruce was the guy she

always liked who had dated other girls in college.

Taylor asked in confusion, "I informed him the first. Don't you and he get along well? You were

classmates at high school… What's wrong?"

Jessica hurriedly waved her hand and said, "It's fine. It's fine… "

Jessica turned sideways with her back to the wall, feeling somewhat sore and endlessly bitter in her

heart.

Bruce probably would show up with that girlfriend of his tomorrow...

Jessica, who was lying on the bed tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, took out her phone and sent

a WeChat message to Judson, "Brother, it is my birthday tomorrow. Can you come… "

At this moment, in the top office of the SKY Group, Judson, who was still working overtime, saw

Jessica's WeChat message and finally understood why she was always looking enviously at the group

of people who were celebrating their birthdays tonight.

This girl, Jessica, was completely silly and good. She was also Judson’s first friend in SKY City.

Thinking of this, he replied to Jessica, "How about this? Since your birthday is tomorrow, then I, as your

brother, will make good arrangements for you for once. Don't make arrangements with your friend. I'll

arrange everything for you… "

Jessica replied, "But I can't let you pay… "

Judson sent two angry emojis over, "What? Don't you treat me like a brother anymore?"

Jessica replied, "Well, thanks, Brother…" Jessica didn't call Judson uncle this time.

After chatting with Jessica, Judson shook his head and burst out laughing as he thought, “Hehe, then, I

will surprise this cute girl tomorrow. She has been having a hard life these years.”

He picked up his phone and dialed a phone over to Katy, "Katy, it’s my sister’s birthday tomorrow. Find

a better hotel and arrange a birthday party. By the way, she is called Jessica. Get it done before 10:00

a.m. tomorrow. After that, send me a location… "

Katy replied in a sweet voice, "Okay! Mr. Ray… ”

The next morning, Judson received a WeChat message from Katy, saying the birthday party would be

held at a five-star hotel, Half-Moon Hotel. So Judson casually forwarded the address to Jessica.

"Jessica, bring your friend over there first. I still have some things to deal with and I'll be over there

after I'm done… It will be soon… "

Jessica replied, “Okay. Thanks, Brother… "

After Jessica finished replying to Judson’s WeChat message, she read the address he had sent her

and frowned. Half-Moon Hotel? Jessica didn't think much of it and sent the address to Taylor. Then

they hailed two commercial taxis and headed that way.

At eleven o’clock in the morning, Judson arrived at Half-Moon Hotel, And after looking at the entire

hotel's layout, he felt okay. As a five-star hotel, Half-Moon Hotel was high-grade with European style

decoration. At the moment, on the turquoise lawn outside, it was filled with balloons of various colors,

where there was also a group of beautiful women playing violins and cellos.

"Mm, well laid out," Judson nodded.

A beautiful woman wearing a black halter dress bowed and said to Judson incomparably politely,

"Hello, Mr. Ray, I'm the lobby manager of the hotel and the host of your sister's birthday banquet today.

My name is Luna Wong. Are you feeling satisfied with the birthday banquet our hotel set up for your

sister?"

Judson nodded his head, "Well, Miss Luna, you have worked hard today… "

The smile on Luna's face was even stronger. She was very elegant and respectful to Judson as she

smiled and said, "Not at all. And I hope you will come to our hotel more often in the future, Mr. Ray… "

Luna was very excited. In the middle of the night yesterday, she had received a call from the first

secretary of the president of SKY Group, Katy, making her so excited that she couldn’t fall asleep all

night. Although Katy didn’t state clearly that whose sister this birthday party was held for, the only

person who could get Katy to do things in the middle of the night was the president of SKY Group!

Luna was now observing the way Judson was dressed and the invisible superiority of his body.

Instantly, she was certain that the one sitting in front of her was the president of the SKY Group! She's

a smart woman and she wouldn't ask questions casually. But she was overwhelmingly excited.

Judson looked at his watch and found that it was already 11:30 a.m. And Jessica and others hadn't

even come yet. So he picked up his phone and called Jessica.

"Jessica, I'm here. Aren’t you guys here?"

"Brother, we're here. We're right at the door. Come pick us up…" replied Jessica.

"Well, okay…" Judson nodded and hung up the phone.

Luna was confused and asked Judson, "What's up, Mr. Ray?"

Judson said, "My sister is at the door. I'm going to pick her up… "

Luna quickly smiled and waved her hand as she said, "Mr. Ray, you are resting. I will pick her up. This

is what we should have done… "

Judson thought and nodded, "Good. Then, sorry for the trouble, Miss Luna... "

Luna smiled and then elegantly walked out to pick up Jessica...

...

Little did Luna know that at the moment Jessica, as well as a dozen of her classmates, were also

anxious. They were standing near the entrance of Half-Moon Hotel, looking at the seven or eight small

hotels around them and wondering which one it was.

The guy that Jessica liked, Bruce, was at the end of the crowd at the moment, holding hands with his

girlfriend and talking. He glanced at Jessica from time to time.

As soon as Jessica hung up the phone with Judson, he walked over to her smilingly and said, “Well,

Jessica, don’t tell me that the brother you know outside the school has booked Half-Moon Hotel for

you. It's a five-star hotel. Do you know how much it costs to hold a birthday party here? It is at least

tens of thousands of dollars… "

"Bruce, my brother just called me, saying he'll be right out to pick me up… " said Jessica in a very low

voice. She was at a loss as well and wondered why Judson had sent her this position. She would be

awkward now.

Bruce laughed and shook his head with a hint of disdain in the depths of his eyes, "Hehe, you're so

kind to call him brother. Jessica, you should have been deceived by someone in the society… "

Jessica bit her lips and her eyes both darkened. Anyone could judge her, but not Bruce. After all, she

had liked Bruce for three years. Jessica's body was trembling a bit.

Taylor, who was standing by Jessica's side, couldn't stand it anymore. She pulled Jessica's hand and

said to Bruce, "Bruce,did you to so far? It's a shame that you're from the same place as Jessica. Her

brother gave her a birthday party. Even if he booked a small restaurant, that's his business. And did

you, who came from the same hometown as Jessica, give her a party? You are talking as if it were

none of your business!"

"You! Humph. I won’t argue with you. I see the birthday party should be held at that small restaurant on

the opposite side. Let's go over there… Oh! Come on! Why did she have to send us the address of

Half-Moon Hotel? What is she pretending for… " Bruce disdainfully waved his hand, pulled his

girlfriend, and headed to the diner across the street. And as soon as Bruce moved, the students beside

Jessica followed him that way as well.

But before they took a few steps, they were stopped by a voice from behind them.

With a black strapless dress, Luna, who was extremely beautiful, said to Jessica and others, "Hello

guys, you're here for the birthday party, right? May I ask who Miss Jessica is? Your brother is waiting

for you inside."

Taylor and Jessica were both stunned. Jessica turned around and looked at the work plate on Luna's

chest, which indicated that she worked at Half-Moon Hotel!

Jessica asked incredulously, "Sister, I'm Jessica. You… just said my brother was in there, right?"

Luna smiled and came forward to hug Jessica's arm as she said, "Sister Jessica, you are so cute. Let’s

go. Your brother has been waiting for you for half a day... Didn’t he give you the address?"

Jessica nodded, "He sent me the address of Half-Moon Hotel. But… "

Luna said with a smile: "Okay. Then hurry up and go in. You're the protagonist. Without you, the

banquet can't begin…" After Luna said, she turned to the dozen or so students behind Jessica,

"Welcome to Half-Moon Hotel. I hope you all have fun today… "

“Bomb!” When Luna finished her words, everyone was silent. And Jessica's dozen or so classmates all

opened their mouths wide one after another… feeling shocked...

Bruce’s face couldn’t be uglier. He had just mocked Jessica that her brother was a liar. He did not

expect to be instantly rebuked...ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
