After a brief wait and confirming Jessie’s reluctance to prepare anything for her, Jeslyn retrieved a small bag of chips from her bag.

She tore it open and nibbled on them quietly, resembling a chipmunk as she watched cartoons.

Bathed in the soft yellow light, Jeslyn’s complexion appeared smooth and delicate, yet she was still on the slim side.

It was evident she hadn’t been raised properly.

Jessie stared at Jeslyn for a moment before Jeslyn glanced back and asked softly, “Could you get me a blanket? My dad might not be able to come for me.

Suddenly, Jessie felt a lump in her throat.

She could sense the fragility of Jeslyn’s heart behind her facade of not caring.

At the same time, Jessie started to resent Albert.

Being Jeslyn’s father, why hadn’t he taken better care of her?

Jessie grabbed the chips from Jeslyn’s grasp.

“What’s so great about junk food? I’ll make something for you.

Deep down, Jeslyn was delighted.

But she maintained a stoic expression as she remarked, “You’re considerate.

Are you prepared to marry that doctor? Elsie told me about it.

Then, Jeslyn began to mimic Elsie’s voice, saying, “I can’t believe it! I couldn’t see that an intellectual isn’t a good person in the end.

He’s got eyes bigger than his stomach.

He’s really greedy and awful.

I guess Miss Green is in for a rough time.

Jeslyn’s eyes sparkled.

“What does it mean to have eyes bigger than his stomach?”

Jessie’s heart skipped a beat.

Why would Elsie say such things?

Of course, Jessie refrained from questioning Jeslyn further.

Though a bit skeptical, she pushed the thoughts aside for the time being.

She headed to the kitchen, opening the refrigerator and retrieving a bag of frozen wontons.

After cooking them, she garnished them with chopped coriander.

Jessie believed it was delicious, but Jeslyn pouted and declared, “I don’t like coriander.

Jessie had to help Jeslyn remove the coriander.

Jeslyn began to eat, though she disliked that the wontons weren’t homemade.

As Jessie moved to take the bowl, Jeslyn hesitated.

“It’s not terrible.

Jessie felt Jeslyn had been overly particular about everything.
