The Genius Ex-Wife’s Revenge Portfolio novel Chapter 645

Events like this were Jessa’s playground. She loved the glitz and the chance to rub shoulders with the city’s elite. Of course she wanted to go, especially if it meant being seen with David.

David didn’t even hesitate. “I’m not taking her.”

“David, are you serious?”

Jessa had expected him to put up a fight, so she came prepared. “David, the Wade family got an invitation too. My dad isn’t going, so I have to represent us. Can I at least ride with you?”

“No.”

Jessa’s smile froze.

David didn’t say anything else. He just walked away.

Jessa was annoyed at being shut down, but she quickly pulled herself together. “Since David won’t take me, I’ll just have the driver drop me off.”

Mrs. Harmon nodded. “That’s fine, Jessa. You can still find David once you’re there. Go and enjoy yourself.”

“Okay, I will.”

Half an hour later, Jessa arrived at the banquet with Sarah by her side.

Sarah had also moved to the Capital three years ago. She and Lucas were already history. Lucas had given her a generous breakup check, and now she was single—and rich. Tonight, she was tagging along with Jessa, hoping to meet someone new at this gathering packed with powerful men. The right connection could change her life.

Sarah clung to Jessa’s arm. “Jessa, this place is gorgeous.”

Jessa grinned. “I know, right? I’ll show you around.”

Just then, a Rolls-Royce pulled up. David stepped out with Aiden.

Jessa’s eyes lit up. “David, hi.”

David barely glanced at her. No matter where he went, Jessa always seemed to show up.

He didn’t bother saying anything and started walking toward the entrance.

At that moment, another luxury car arrived. The door opened and an elegant, striking lady stepped out.

Ella was here.
