GoodNovelChapter 1064 Gloomy, Jealous, Terrifying Tessa's face stiffened for moment, then she pursed her lips, her nails almost digging into her palms.
Someone suggested starting the barbecue now, so everyone could rest early after drinking and set off at six in the morning.
This suggestion eased the awkward atmosphere.
Selena also walked over to Raymond.
Selena felt Tessa's gaze on her, filled with gloom, jealousy, and malice.
Selena found it strange. Tessa already had everything anyone could ask for; why wasn't she satisfied? Selena's stomach wasn't feeling well tonight, so she asked Raymond to go over the precautions for the trip again and stayed inside, not participating in the barbecue. Since Selena didn't go, Raymond didn't go either.
It was Alex who cin and called, "Raymond, what do you want to eat? There's a chef grilling seafood outside. Don't you and Selena want some?" Speaking of seafood, Selena got interested and went outside to take a look.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn just a short time, various fresh seafood had already been placed in tanks.
The seafood was diverse and had been flown in by helicopter.
Even though it was a camping trip, these rich kids wouldn't compromise on quality; the barbecue items were all top-notch.
Selena spotted a king crab and heard that grilling it with crab roe tasted great.
Back when she was at the Fair Villa, before James remarried, their family gatherings were always well-prepared. But halfway through, James would always get a call for a meeting and leave in a hurry. Just as she was about to point to the king crab inside, she heard Tessa speak. "This one is mine." Unfortunately, the other king crabs had already been claimed, leaving only this one unclaimed.
The specially invited chefs had already started grilling, including someone else's king crab.
Tessa stepped forward and sneered. "Are you just using this chance to stuff yourself with things you've never had before?" Her words were a clear jab at Selena's background, mocking her poverty.
Selena found it amusing and, for the first time, looked at Tessa seriously.
"Ms. Smith." Her tone was calm, not at all angry. "I can't choose my birth, and in that respect, I can't compare to you. But apart from family background, Ms. Smith, you might not be better thanin other ways." Tessa had been frail since she was a child and often fainted during school. Knowing she was the apple of the Smith family's eye, she never pushed herself to learn anything too demanding, which resulted in her developing a delicate nature. But whatever, she was born with a silver spoon in her mouth.
Tessa chuckled, her lips curling up, and looked at Raymond, who was chatting with Alex not far away.
"Do you think you two are a good match? Selena, do you believe that with just one word from me, Raymond would immediately announce our engagement?" Selena frowned, unsure of where Tessa's confidence cfrom.
Tessa looked at Selena with pity. "You know nothing. How pathetic." These words made Selena uneasy, but Tessa raised her voice, "I'll take the last king crab. Can you grill this for me?" A chef immediately cover, grabbed a net, and tried to scoop up the king crab.
Selena said nothing, watching Tessa run to Raymond and say something with a smile.
Then Alex laughed, and so did the others.
Selena, standing a bit far away, couldn't hear clearly, but everyone seemed to treat Tessa well. Then, a car's headlights suddenly pierced the dark night.
Tessa's eyes lit up, and she ran towards the low-key Mulsanne.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Lawrence!" Tessa called out and threw herself into Lawrence's arms. "Why are you so late?" Lawrence ruffled her hair, his tone full of disapproval. "I called you several times, but you didn't answer. You know this trip will take two days, and your health isn't suitable for it."
It turned out Tessa had thrown a tantrum, which was why Lawrence was came, worried she might have an En.
accident on the way. This was Lawrence's first appearance in front of this group.
Tessa clung to his arm, her eyes smiling. "But you're here now. With you and Wind, what me? Besides, haven't been out in ? have happen to nature for a long time. I just want to have fun with everyone." After saying this, Tessa looked at Selena, appearing even more clingy. Given Selena's poor background and her brother in prison, she must be very envious of seeing Lawrence now.
Tessa's lips curled up. Unfortunately, a lowly life remained lowly, and Tessa needed to remind Selena of her place.
Selena was fundamentally different from the wealthy kids here; she was an outcast.
"Lawrence, that's Selena," Tessa pouted and asked softly, "How's the action hasked you to take against S.M Corporation going?" "It's still in progress. I told you not to be unreasonable," Lawrence replied.
"I didn't. I was just so bored and wanted to join everyone on this trip," Tessa said.
No matter what she did, Lawrence would always forgive Tessa.
Though Lawrence was cold, he was a good family man.
