Chapter 484

The only thing that could really threaten Jessica right now was John. If John was hit with a scandal and

caused severe controversy, the Stuarts would annul Jessica's engagement with him to protect their

reputation.

However, said annulment would be a terrible loss to both the Stuarts and Jessica. The former would

have their ambitions thwarted, while for Jessica, anyone could tell how crazily in love she was with

John.

Therefore, if the Stuarts wouldn't hurt Cordy for that reason, Jessica would not do it either.

Even so, Jessica wasn't so easily threatened. "Did you really think my family and the Levines can't

enforce a media blackout even if you publicize this? No one even knows Jay was almost killed in a car

accident. You know very well that our families' influences are far beyond what you can ever imagine!"

“But what if it's Patrick who publicizes these photos?" Cordy asked in return.

Jessica scowled, as the threat obviously registered.

Cordy regarded Jessica coolly as she continued, "I know I'm nothing compared to your families' power,

but what do you think Patrick would do once he has these? He won’t hesitate to move immediately and

get your engagement with John annulled."

"I'm impressed you could immediately come up with an idea that would maximize your advantage, but

you're being conceited!" Jessica glowered, her eyes flashing murderously. ’You know why those

'accidents' happened before, don't you?"

As Cordy stared at Jessica warily, Jessica smiled sinisterly. "If I dared to go that far before, do you think

I'd let this chance go when you came looking for me? I never intended to let you leave alive the instant

you asked to meet!"

"You're not worried that I have backup?" Cordy asked fearlessly. "If I'm in danger, the public will see

everything I just showed you."

"But I have your phone," Jessica shot back smugly. "How are you going to message Patrick? And I

have the resource to get the backup before Patrick reaches it, since he doesn't even know you have

this. If he did, we wouldn't be talking peacefully here."

In other words, Jessica was saying that Patrick would've exposed those photos if he knew they existed.

Even so, Cordy remained unaffected. "So it never crossed your mind that I was prepared before I

came? Maybe I have set another plan in motion so Patrick could reach it immediately, and have your

engagement annulled in case anything happens to me. In that case, I don't think you'd beat him to it.

Jessica scowled further-she had never been pushed this far her entire life!

Even if John didn't love her, he complied with her whims.

Cordy, on the other hand... Jessica wanted nothing less than to murder Cordy right here and now!

Her eyes flashed viciously as she glared at Cordy, but Cordy calmly picked up her purse, nonchalantly

whipping out a tissue to wipe her fingers.

It appeared to be a provocation to Jessica, but only Cordy knew that she was actually trying to keep

her own heart rate in check while discreetly alerting Patrick.

"I'll admit you made a smart move today, Cordy. You did pose a threat, and I'd have to tiptoe around

you... If you hadn't neglected to remember one thing: you never tried to study me! If you did, you'd

know I'd rather take risks than to leave a threat alive! Even if my chances are less than a hundred

percent, you'd find that I am very willing to take the risk!"

And with those words, Jessica made a gesture; one of the black-clad bodyguards behind her promptly

whipped out a gun, aiming the barrel squarely on Cord/s head.
