Chapter 100
"Trevor, please believe me. I really didn't kill anyone. I only killed those who deserved to die!"
She had only killed once, which was the people who were trying to bring her down at Samantha's grave.
"I know. I know. They deserved to die. They deserved it."
Trevor knelt down, and his valiant figure pulled her into his embrace.
"Don't be scared. I'm here. I believe you. You didn't kill anyone, and I know that. I know."
Trevor's voice was filled with guilt. He should have known. Why did it take him so long to find out?
He was just inept. He had put her in so much pain for so many years.
How did Jessica even live through those five years of torture?
Trevor would have gone to Kaus himself if he didn't encounter Faye at the airport.
He thought Jessica had died, so he wanted to live at Kaus as well and die there if possible.
"All right, all right."
Trevor gently caressed her back as if he was consoling a wounded lamb.
Jessica only got better mentally after being consoled. She then immediately raised her head and looked into Trevor's eyes. She quickly got out of his embrace after that. "I'm sorry. Did I waste your time?"
"Don't tell me he started doubting me? What is going on with me?" she thought while she furrowed her brows.
She sometimes fell into an unknown state, like how she did just now.
"It's nothing. Don't think too much about it. Now, let's get up. Let me introduce you to some people from the industry."
Trevor pulled her up gently and carefully patted the dust from her gown.
Jessica didn't know what to say. She felt awkward in this situation, so she just remained silent.
Both of them walked back to the crowd, and needless to say, everyone's gaze was fixated on Jessica.
The gossip might have lessened, but it was still there.
Just like Trevor had said, he brought Jessica to meet with some people. He even introduced them one by one, explaining to her which was the bigshot in which field.
As for Jessica, she tried her best to remember them for her future. She didn't want to not know any of them and be in a dilemma when she needed them in her future career.
"Hold on. I'll be going to the toilet," Trevor said to her softly and left.
Jessica sat in place, holding a champagne glass in her hand. Everyone who walked past her kept sighing as they went.
If it wasn't for what happened, she wouldn't have just sat here, being criticized by all the others.
She used to be Horington's first socialite, and her status matched with Trevor then.
"Oh? Look at this, and here I thought who it was. I heard a certain someone committed murder."
Leah was holding a glass as she
walked over. There was a group people following her as well.

"Can I help you?"
Jessica never really wanted to talk to them. As for Leah?
She had never even seen her before in the socialite circle of Horington.
"You think you can stand beside Trevor as equal? Honestly, do you think you have the right?"
Leah was clearly insulting Jessica, and her eyes were filled with annoyanceProperty belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
"I don't," Jessica replied calmly and continued, "I feel that Ms. Black is more suited to stand beside the Chairman."
Jessica really didn't want to bother with a brat like her.
All of these meant nothing, all the suited or not suited. Were all angels suited to be in heaven?
No matter if they were suited or not, heaven was still their home, and that was a fact.
If one didn't agree, then they could live on the heavens themselves.
Jessica never wanted to have anything to do with Trevor. That man was the one not letting go of her now.
"Humph! At least you still have some self-awareness. So? Aren't you going to leave?"
