Chapter 696 - Intentionally (1/2)
Anya's hand looked a little wobbly so that the glass she was holding fell and spilled the red wine that filled it.
In the blink of an eye, the red wine in Anya's hand spilled onto Jessica's chest.
The red wine made Jessica's cream-colored dress dirty right at that second. She was wearing a 10 cm high heel so that when she saw Anya spilling the wine, she couldn't escape her.
”Geez!” Anya exclaimed in a low voice. Her hands hung rigidly in the air.
Jessica's face immediately turned terrible. Everyone was there, how could Anya do it to her?
Anya then showed a regretful look. She stepped forward and said apologetically, ”Jessica, I'm really sorry. I forgot I was still holding the glass in my hand…”
Jessica was so angry that her whole body was trembling.
But Anya smiled instead, hiding the satisfaction in her heart.
Jessica wanted to attack her back, but when she saw Aiden's arrival, she immediately pretended to be cute and said, ”No problem. I'm sure you accidentally spilled the wine on me because I accidentally spilled the wine on my hand on you before… ”
No one said that Anya did it on purpose. But Jessica's words seemed to influence the guests' opinion as she indirectly accused Anya of spilling the wine on purpose.
”Aiden, you saw it right? Please help me explain. I really didn't mean it. Jessica accidentally spilled her wine on me and apologized to me. I panicked too when I wanted to tell her that it's okay and so my glass slipped from my hand...” Anya stopped talking and looked at her husband with a pleading face.
Aiden immediately took off his jacket and put it on her shoulder. After that, he embraced Anya and pulled his wife's body closer in his arms. ”You're this big already, but you still spilled your drink like a child. What can you do without me?”
Despite reprimanding her, Aiden said it with a tender look.
”Then don't stay away from me. Otherwise, I would be careless and let myself get humiliated like this,” Anya pursed her lips sadly.
Everyone there wasn't a fool. They all knew that Anya was the target. But what could they do if Aiden protected her? Even Jessica could only stand there awkwardly.
She pretended to be innocent and said, ”Aiden, I wasn't being careful either. I didn't mean to…”
”That's right! Jessica didn't do it on purpose, but Anya did it on purpose!”
”I don't understand. Jessica accidentally spilled the wine, but why should Anya do the same to her? So mean...”
They were Jessica's followers. Of course they would immediately defend her.
”I think Anya didn't do it on purpose. Since everything is just a misunderstanding, it's better not to exaggerate it. My clothes are dirty, I'll go to the bathroom first,” Jessica exuded a smile that was soft and charming like a grown woman.
Aiden frowned when he saw that.
But since he found out that Jessica was his old classmate, it wasn't easy for him to attack her.
”Nadine, help Jessica to change her clothes,” Aiden said.
