Chapter 672 Come at Me if You Can
"James was tricked by Jolene Walter and is likely to be forced to marry her. Miss Walter is
probably not very happy about it. She and James have a close relationship, and James has
been pursuing her. If this hadn't happened, perhaps they would have ended up together,"
Blake remarked offhandedly.
Alec glanced at her and said, "You seem to know a lot about these things."
"What's so strange about that? It's all over the internet. Only people like you who don't go
online don't pay attention to all this," Blake explained casually.
Alec didn't ask any further but just looked at the villa where James lived.
Jenny drove back to Walter Castle. As soon as she entered, she saw Jolene and her mother
looking pleased with themselves while Jolene tried on clothes.
"Mom, do you think I should wear this to the engagement banquet? Is it too plain?”
Jolene was wearing a blue dress and twirling happily in front of Rowena. It would be Jolene

become Jolene and James' engagement banquet instead.
Jenny felt increasingly angry as she thought about it, especially when she saw how
pleased they were, without any guilt for ruining someone else's happiness. She strode
forward and grabbed Jolene’s chin swiftly to tilt her head up. Jolene stared up at her in
shock; the next moment, Jenny gave her two tight slaps.
Jolene froze, and so did Rowena. It happened too suddenly, so neither of them knew how
to react.
It wasn't until the pain hit her that Jolene screamed, "Ah! Jenny, I'll kill you!"
She wanted to attack Jenny, but unfortunately, she wasn't a march for Jenny. She swung
her arms around for a while but couldn't even touch Jenny's sleeves.
"Kill me? Come at me if you can. The only thing you're good at is screaming, you useless
piece of trash!" Jenny shouted angrily, throwing Jolene aside and turning her gaze to
Rowena.
Rowena felt a sense of fear for no apparent reason when Jenny stared at her. "What do you
intend to do? Your dad is still at home."
"Feeling scared?" Jenny sneered and walked closer to her. "It's too late to be afraid now.
Why weren't you scared when you went and set James up, huh?"
"Don't poke your nose into other people's business." Rowena tried to quell the terror she
felt in her heart. After all, she was the elder, so she couldn't show any weakness in front of
Jenny.
Jenny sneered with clenched fists. "Funny you should say I'm poking my nose into other
people's business? James is family to me. Scheming against him is equivalent to scheming
against me. I won't let you have your way!"
"If you dare to ruin Jo in any way, I'll make sure you'll pay for it with your life! ■
Rowena was equally angered. For her, Jolene's happiness was of the utmost importance. If
Jenny dared to damage Jolene's chances, Rowena would fight her with everything she had.
At those words, Jenny laughed lightly and took two steps back. "Is that so? How are you
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmgoing to make sure I'll pay with my life?"
Her sudden retreat befuddled Rowena. Just as she was about to speak, she suddenly
realized someone's gaze was on her.
Looking up, she saw Graham standing at the staircase and staring at her intently.
"Rowena, I believe you're capable of doing it. After all, for Jolene's sake, you could scheme
against James, so naturally, you would also kill me for her," Jenny said with a smile tinged
with a hint of coldness that seemed to implicate something. With that, Jenny turned
around and started to go upstairs. "But it would depend on whether you're capable of
doing that."
Jenny wasn't afraid of Rowena. On the contrary, she was unhappy that Rowena had been
inactive lately, as she'd yet to obtain evidence of the latter's wrongdoings.
Just as Jenny went back to her room, Graham approached Rowena.
"Graham, I was just-"
Graham slapped Rowena in the face, his gaze icy. "If you dare to touch Jenny, I too, will
make sure you'll pay for it with your life."
