Chapter 863: Chapter 863: Jenny Kirk is Very Confident_1 Chapter 863: Chapter 863: Jenny Kirk is Very Confident_1 Jenny Kirk was young and attractive.
When she walked with a handsome man like Adrian Zhekova, it was easy for people to misconstrue their relationship.
That’s exactly what Jenny wanted—to be linked with Adrian in people’s minds.
Seeing many eyes turning towards her, Jenny held her head high and felt more proud.
However, her pride didn’t last long before she heard a chorus of voices calling out, “CEO’s wife!”
“The CEO’s wife is here!”
“Good afternoon, Mrs.
CEO!”
“We’ve missed Mrs.
CEO during the break!”
Although there was no uniformity in their greetings, the sporadic shouts made it a lively scene.
...
It seemed like Cindy Clarke was extremely popular here.
Jenny’s triumphant look froze on her face.
Were these people really necessary to please Cindy?
As soon as Cindy walked in, she saw Adrian walking with Jenny.
She had only seen Jenny on the surveillance screen at the family mansion before.
But she recognized her immediately today.
Cindy was a bit stunned.
Jenny really didn’t give up, she even followed them to the company.
She wondered what Jenny had said, since Adrian hadn’t dismissed her.
While Cindy was thinking, she was suddenly greeted by many colleagues.
So, Cindy put Jenny aside and greeted her coworkers.
Jenny saw that Cindy didn’t even bother to glance at her, being too busy chatting with her colleagues.
It seemed that Cindy was careful to respond to each person who greeted her.
Nobody was neglected.
It was indeed a short conversation.
Given the sheer number of people, it was impossible to have a lengthy chat with each of them.
Even returning a single greeting to each person made her colleagues feel that Cindy was very easy to get along with.
Moreover, Cindy’s greeting wasn’t just a simple “hello.” She didn’t seem to want to give off a haughty image.
Cindy really made sure to address people by name.
There were many employees in Pingla, and Cindy didn’t remember all of them.
But because she’d had the experience of delivering meals before knowing Adrian,
She recognized many of her female colleagues.
Since being with Adrian, she had been coming in almost every midday.
She encountered many employees daily.
From the first floor to the elevator, there were employees everywhere.
After repeated encounters, she naturally began to remember them.
For those she remembered, like Brenan and Wilbert Evans, Cindy always initiated a greeting.
She didn’t act cold due to her status as the CEO’s wife.
She didn’t put on airs.
How could her colleagues not love Cindy?
They believed that Cindy was kind and approachable.
How many good deeds had the scumbag CEO done in his previous life to marry such a good girl in this life!
Just now, they had seen Jenny walking with Adrian.
Of course, Jenny had misconstrued their stares as them misinterpreting her relationship with Adrian.
But in reality, they hadn’t thought anything of it.
They simply saw Adrian and instinctively looked.
As for Jenny?
They thought she was a client.
Given the CEO’s daily overt display of affection,
He wouldn’t do anything to betray Cindy!
Therefore, the colleagues didn’t misconstrue anything.
It was all in Jenny’s head.
After a lot of effort, Cindy finally finished her rendezvous and walked towards Adrian.
On the way, she inevitably came across a steady stream of colleagues.
And so she went on this way, greeting everyone in her path.
Jenny Kirk was watching everything from the sidelines.
She thought to herself, Cindy Clarke was just flexing around her!
Proclaiming her status here.
Just look at that, the staff are warm towards her, and she seems to know them quite well.
Obviously, she frequents here, almost as if she is the lady of the Sky City.
Unable to help herself, Jenny’s face darkened with annoyance.
Humph!
What on earth was Cindy so proud of?
She didn’t stop to consider herself, as Mrs.
Zhekova, being friendly with ordinary employees!
If put in nicer words, she appeared approachable and down-to-earth.
But in reality, she was embarrassing Adrian Zhekova with her lack of class!
What kind of CEO’s wife behaves like that?
Yet, Cindy seemed quite pleased with herself, intentionally flaunting it in front of her.
What a fool!
Jenny couldn’t help but turn to look at Adrian’s reaction.
Choosing Cindy as his wife was certainly humiliating for him.
What was Adrian thinking?
Jenny couldn’t shake the feeling that Adrian was genuinely settling for less.
Meanwhile, Cindy came over.
Cindy had been reflecting.
When Adrian had called her earlier, he must have been alone.
Otherwise, not even someone as thick-skinned as Adrian would dare to utter such embarrassing words.
Even if it was just to irk Jenny, it wouldn’t have come to that.
At least that’s what Cindy believed.
She just didn’t know when Adrian had run into Jenny.
Cindy greeted Jenny first: “Miss Kirk.”
She didn’t pretend not to know her.
Jenny responded with a polite nod: “Hello.”
She couldn’t bring herself to address Cindy as Mrs.
Zhekova.
After the greetings, Cindy turned to Adrian and asked, “I was already downstairs, what did you come down for?”
Adrian was feeling regretful too.
Had he known, he would have stayed upstairs.
That way, he would’ve avoided Jenny’s clinginess.
Thinking of this, Adrian reminded himself to settle scores with Sheldon Rowland.
Jenny was waiting outside all along, how could Sheldon not have informed him?
Just as Adrian was about to speak, Jenny pre-empted him: “Senior, about the International Culinary Competition you mentioned earlier, we didn’t get to talk detail due to the lack of time.”
Jenny smiled, suggesting, “Why don’t we find a place to sit down, and I can explain everything to you?”
From the corner of her eye, Jenny noticed the food container in Cindy’s hand.
She wanted to pull Adrian away right in front of Cindy.
Didn’t Cindy make lunch specifically for Adrian?
Then she’d just make sure all her efforts were in vain.
And ensure Adrian wouldn’t taste it.
She’ll let Cindy’s good intentions go to waste.
So Cindy could eat her homemade lunch alone, imagining the scene of Adrian dining with another woman.
And let Cindy choke on her agony!
Jenny was confident that Adrian surely wouldn’t refuse her this time.
She had already spilled the beans in the elevator.
But if Adrian wanted to learn more, he’d have to have a proper chat with her.
There was no way Adrian would miss out on something that could greatly benefit Sky City.
And she would only feed Adrian a bit of information at a time.
Leading him on.
Jenny’s smile was exceptionally sweet, showing no worries at all.
“I don’t have time now, maybe some other time.” As for when he would have the time?
And when would ‘some other time’ be?
It was clear he would never have the time, and ‘some other time’ would never come.
