"I asked them to go down and search, but they didn't find any corpses. It doesn't matter if that kind of
little guy is alive or dead." Zac said casually.
Essie had another thought in her mind. If Eve was still alive, she might know what had happened that
night.
No matter what happened, she wanted to know the truth. She didn't want to be muddled, nor did she
want to bear unnecessary stains and criticism.
In the afternoon, Mary called them and asked them to go back to the house of Rong family to discuss
the wedding.
"Zac, your wedding day is coming. I shouldn't have splashed cold water on you. But it's really not
appropriate to hold a wedding in such a situation."
"Why not?" Zac frowned.
"Now there are a lot of gossips about Essie. We believe in the innocence of Essie and the baby's
identity, but people outside don't think so. If those guests come to the wedding, it is inevitable that they
will talk about it in private. Wedding is a celebration. It's not good for you and Essie to be looked at
differently by the guests. Now the only thing that could stop them from talking about was the paternity
test. As long as the paternity test was carried out at that time, it would prove that Essie was innocent.
No one dared to gossip about it. So I think we'd better hold the wedding after the baby is born and let
Essie be a happy bride. "
Mary said earnestly. It seemed that she cared about Essie very much for the sake of their marriage, but
in fact, she was scheming. She was sure that the baby in Essie's belly was the child of that bastard. If
the paternity test came out, it would be strange if Abel and Alena could accept it. At that time, they
would kick Essie out of the family, in case she would not destroy the reputation of the family.
"Mommy, I don't care what others say. The wedding must be held as schedule." Said Zac firmly.
A gleam flashed through Mary's eyes. Her son was always so disobedient that he would never accept
her advice.
"I'm doing this for your own good. Do you want the guests to look at Essie differently when she wears
the wedding dress and walks into the wedding hall?"
"If we cancel the wedding, others will think about it." Said Zac.
"Essie is pregnant. Isn't it normal to postpone the wedding?" Mary frowned, dissatisfied with her son's
disobedience.
Sitting next to him, Essie didn't say anything. Anyway, Zac had said that he would decide everything.
He could do whatever he wanted.
Seeing her son's firm expression, Mary turned to her husband for help, hoping that he could persuade
her son. However, in Albert's opinion, the wedding was just a matter of form and could not change
anything.
"The wedding is theirs. It's up to them. Besides, Zac and Essie have been married for more than three
years. It's time for the wedding."
Hearing this, Mary was secretly annoyed. The father and son are always on the same side, and neither
of them had been on her side.
She really couldn't figure out what was good about Essie. Her son didn't mind such a shameful thing.
He was simply spiraled into madness and was controlled by Essie.
On the weekend, as the bridesmaid, Eva rushed back from Hengdian to try on the dress. Jim was also
there. He was the best man of Zac.
Eva was unwilling to be his side, but they were enemies and could bump into each other no matter
what happened.
When she walked out in the bridesmaid's dress, an indescribable look flashed across Jim's eyes. Eva
thought he was contemptuous of her. In his eyes, she was an ordinary woman with ordinary facial
features, ordinary figure, ordinary skin and ordinary hair quality. All in all, from top to bottom, from
inside to outside, he didn't think there is any part of her he could admire.
She was used to it. Her biggest advantage was that she was natural and pollution-free, one hundred
times better than the artificial beauties he had dated.
To be honest, she also wanted to pick some problems on him, but she couldn't find any flaws in his
body.
This guy had perfect facial features and perfect figure. Every move of him exuded a noble and elegant
temperament. He was just a piece of art refined by a God, making it difficult for her to find a weakness
in him.
A handsome man was a trap and would bring disaster to women.
It was said that the women dumped by him were all very miserable. They either suffered from
depression, or committed suicide for love. They were so stupid to hurt themselves for a man.
They should play love games like her and treat men as clothes. If they got tired of him, they could
change into a new one.
In fact, Jim just glanced at her and then looked away. She was not his dish and he was not interested
in looking at her. However, since last cooperation, he found that some part of the heaven pepper had
grown a lot of meat. It was estimated that it had been C size.
The gap between A and C was quite big. She insisted that she was pure and natural, could it be Vinton
who helped her?
At this moment, Eva had shifted her attention to Essie. For the sake of her best friend's wedding, she
decided to temporarily put up with this bad man who enslaved her on the film set every day.
Although she was pregnant, Essie's belly was still flat and her waist was still slender.
Looking at her, Eva smiled and said, "Essie, I find that other people's bodies are all ruined after giving
birth. The more you give birth, the better your figure is. Your waist is so thin that it can't be bent. But
your chests are still E size, why is your figure so good? "
"Are you jealous?" Before she finished her words, Jim's mocking voice came from the side.
She rolled her eyes at him and said, "you should be the one who should be jealous. Everyone knows
that you have been secretly loving Essie. Now Essie is going to marry your best friend. Aren't you
jealous? Don't you feel uncomfortable? "
A hint of anger crept into Jim's eyebrows. He moved his lips and was about to teach the heaven pepper
a lesson. But when he was interrupted by Essie, she had already smelled the gunpowder in the air.
When she came here, Zac had warned her that Jim didn't get along well with Eva and asked her to be
careful. She didn't take it seriously at first, but now it seemed that the matter was more serious than
she thought.
In order to prevent them from quarreling with each other, she quickly explained, "Eva, you
misunderstood. Although I have lost my memory, Zac told me about my relationship with Jim. Last time,
in order to help us, he deliberately spread the gossip about our relationship. We are just acting. "
Knowing the truth, Eva pouted and didn't want to let go of Jim easily, "I knew it. How could you date
with such a playboy?"
Jim sneered, with a mocking look on his face, "do you know the difference between dissolute and
skittish?"
Eva looked fierce. Of course she knew that. Nowadays, playboys were called debonair when they
played with women, and women were regarded as skittish when they played with men. It was said that
men and women were equal nowadays, but in fact, they had never been equal.
"It doesn't matter. I choose my own way. I don't care what others want to say."
"That's a good idea, but since we are two birds of a feather, don't be so narcissistic and attack me. We
are the same." Jim sneered, his eyes full of sneer.
Eva's cheeks turned blue slightly, and the corners of her mouth twitched fiercely. A gust of anger
rushed to his forehead. "My relationship is platonic. I won't kiss or have sex with men. Are you the
same with me?" Men were all animals. It would be strange if they didn't have sex.
Jim snorted, "how do you know I'm not?" He was very picky. He didn't touch any woman he didn't like.
"Unless the cat doesn't eat fish, the sun rises in the West and the moon falls from the East, then it can
happen." Eva said in an extremely affirmative tone. She was sure that Jim was a playboy who would
never refuse women.
Hearing the conversation between the two, Essie was speechless. The two of them might have been
enemies for three lifetimes. Otherwise, they would not talk back or fight with each other every time they
met.
She went to the freezer nearby and took out two bottles of frozen juice to cool them down.
"You are not only the partner of the new play, but also the bridesmaid and groomsman of Zac and me.
Can't you just smile at each other?"
"No." Jim and Eva said almost at the same time. They hated each other and they always wanted to do
something to tease and make fun of each other so that they could vent their anger.
"I really can't stand such a person who repays kindness with enmity." Jim snorted.
"I've brought you tea and water every day. I've already paid off what I owe you, okay?" Eva stared at
him with her arms akimbo and almond eyes wide open.
"You are just paying off the debts. Don't mix them up." Jim's cold voice was like a gust of cold wind,
blowing Eva's shoulders and limbs cold. It turned out that she had worked so hard these days just to
pay off her gambling debts. Hadn't she paid off the first two debts?
"Jim, don't go too far. My patience is limited." She clenched her fists. If she was not strong enough to
defeat him, she would have punched him and broken his nose.
Jim sat on the sofa and adjusted the tie at the collar of his shirt. "As long as you admit that you are a
rogue, these two debt of gratitude can be written off."
Eva was exasperated and flushed with shame and anger. "Jim, listen to me. As soon as Essie's
wedding is over, I will prepare a table of good wine and dishes for you. You can eat as much as you
want."
"Okay, that's what you said." Jim's brown eyes darkened. In fact, he didn't want her to pay any debt of
gratitude at all. He just wanted to give her a hard time. Too spicy food would make people too hot. He
was like this now. As soon as he met this heaven pepper, he would be very angry.
Touching her forehead, Essie was a little embarrassed. The grudge between them seemed to be much
deeper than she had imagined. Although she had lost her memory and had forgotten a lot of things,
she still wanted to be a peacemaker to resolve the grudge between them.
