Chapter 124
Janet Obrien asked Jasper.
Jasper’s gaze was still on Jennifer, his thin lips slightly parted as if he was hesitating to choose his words carefully, not answering the question immediately.
It was Peter who introduced Jennifer to Janet.
“Ms. Obrien, her name is Jennifer, she was my girlfriend.”
Jennifer widened her eyes and looked at Peter, the look in her eyes clearly asking Peter why he kept telling people she was his girlfriend.
Jasper tried his best to control himself, but his expression kept. changing.
Just a few days ago, Randall was hinting to him that Jennifer had already gotten married, and her husband is Brayan.
It can be seen that Jennifer and Brayan probably haven’t divorced yet.
What’s going on with Peter now?
Jasper quietly clenched his fist, wanting to ask but unable to.
The air suddenly went quiet, and Peter casually added, “I was just kidding, she’s my friend.”
Janet glanced at Jasper beside her and felt like he had a “huge weight off his shoulders” after listening to Peter.
“Jasper, didn’t you introduce me to them?”

Janet reminded Jasper, and then he said, “This is Janet… my fiancee.”
The words “fiancee” took Jennifer by surprise.
But soon she realized she had overreacted.
Based on Jasper’s family background, it made sense for him to marry a proper lady from a similar social class.
Jasper was watching Jennifer’s expression.
Jennifer’s surprise only lasted a moment.
Nothing but surprise, which left him feeling let down and disappointed.
At the same time, watching Jennifer was Brayan.
Catalina was so nervous that her palms were sweating.
She could tell that both Peter and Jasper had a thing for Jennifer.
Although Brayan didn’t like Jennifer, all men have a competitive side. He was afraid that if Jennifer got a new admirer, it would trigger his possessiveness.
However…
Brayan’s dark pupils were like a calm sea on a winter night, you couldn’t see anything.
Catalina breathed a sigh of relief.
Over there, Jennifer and Peter were still chatting with Jasper and Janet, while over here, Brayan had already started walking.
“Weren’t we supposed to go dancing?”

Catalina’s attention was caught by Brayan’s voice.
Brayan bent his arm, motioning for her to link hers through his.
Catalina was in a great mood, holding hands with Brayan as they entered the dance floor.
It looks like she was just worrying for nothing, Brayan really didn’t care about Jennifer.
Catalina danced well, and so did Brayan. They followed the music and showed off beautiful and fancy dance moves, instantly becoming the center of attention.
“Is that Mr. LeBlanc’s girlfriend?”
“I heard Mr. LeBlanc was chasing after her.”
“She was beautiful and danced well.”
“It seems like she comes from a good background, she was high school classmates with Mr. LeBlanc, now working as a jewelry designer. Mr. Webb really likes her design concept, you know Mr. Webb hasn’t praised a newcomer in years. This Ms. Colbert is really talented.”
“Know inside and out, a match made in heaven, perfect match!”
Jennifer stood aside, listening to the gossip quietly, her face pale and unable to hide behind the makeup.
As a result, she couldn’t compete with Catalina in love.
Career–wise, I couldn’t compete either.
Jennifer felt extreme self–loathing.
Now, Jasper went dancing with his fiancee.

Although they exchanged pleasantries, Jennifer could sense that Jasper was intentionally keeping his distance from her.
After all, it was she who cut off all contact with Jasper in the first place.
In Jasper’s eyes, she was just a gold digger who gave up friendship for fifty million.
“Jennifer, wanna dance?”
After Peter asked, he saw the injured expression on Jennifer’s face and realized he had touched a nerve.
“Sorry, I said the wrong thing.”
Jennifer shook her head.
She understood that Peter took her to socialize in order to introduce her to connections and help her fit in with this circle.
“I just want some alone time, you do your own thing!”
“Okay…”
Peter was not worried about Jennifer, but he also didn’t want to bother
her.
