Chapter: 1250
She dismissed his position as a chauffeur and pretended to not have cared about it at all.
Mrs. Jenkins narrowed her eyes and carefully looked Jack up and down.
“Yes, yes, very good," she murmured to herself. He might Look rather rugged, but he had quite pleasing features, and his eyes were filled with a quiet but unmistakable confidence. It seemed that fate had favored him greatly.
Mrs. Jenkins had been studying religion and divinity for the Last twenty years. She considered herself rather adept in reading one's destiny through their facial features.
“It looks like he isn't married yet," she muttered under her breath.
“If we can find him a young Lady in the Jenkins family to marry him, it will solidify the bond between our family and the Sky Group. We will have their support moving forward..."
An idea soon took shape in her mind.
“Mr. Blake, please come in so we can talk." Mrs. Jenkins mustered a bright smile, hoping that it was enough to make a good impression on the young man.
As for Jack, he didn't need further encouragement. He followed the servants as he was ushered into the villa.
The rest of the family was waiting inside, their emotions ranging from nervousness to eager anticipation. Everyone was aware how important their guest was.
Vivian was browsing through the vinyl records to find something suitable to perform to. Her nerves were shot.
After all, she had never heard of the Sky Group before.
It wasn't until she had come to the Jenkins family that she realized just how clueless and inexperienced she used to be.
Ironically, this epiphany only served to make her jump whenever she heard of something unfamiliar, thinking that it was yet another great matter that her Lowly self never had the chance to encounter before.
“This time, I'll try to charm the distinguished guest and tickle his fancy. Once I have a connection within the Sky Group, the entire
Jenkins family will think highly of me. I'll finally have Mrs. Jenkins‘ approval! She might even raise my status to that of a seventh-level warrior... No, eighth-level, even!"
Vivian grew more excited as the scenario slowly unfolded in her mind. She couldn't help but chuckle as she thought about Maria's utter ignorance.
It was such a once-in-a-Lifetime opportunity! But Maria squandered her chance without a second thought.
Maria might be hot in the entertainment industry, but she was still inferior to Vivian in areas that really mattered. And Vivian took satisfaction in that knowledge.
“Are you ready, Miss Vivian? Our esteemed guest is already seated. Mrs Jenkins has given strict orders to ensure that the performance goes smoothly. The family must not lose face in front of Mr. Jack Blake."
"Yes, yes, I know already. I can start whenever— Wait, what did you say the name of the guest was? Jack Blake? Are you kidding me?!"
Vivian's heart skipped a beat, her previous excitement slowly deflating and curling into a ball of dread in the pit of her stomach. Jack Blake?
If she wasn't mistaken... The chauffeur of the Wilson family, the one who was always with Maria... He was called Jack Blake, too, wasn't he?
A chauffeur?
