Twin Treasures: The CEO Wife's 99-Day of Revelations-Chapter 1133: Vera Ford Makes Herself Unwelcome
As soon as Ian Shelby left, Jocelyn Morgan realized her stomach had started rumbling; she was really hungry.
Ignoring her own image, she didn’t care as every morning she always wakes up looking disheveled.
Just when she opened the bag, inserted a straw into her soy milk, took a sip, and stuffed a dumpling in her mouth, Vera Ford walked in.
Vera clearly heard Ian say he was going to check on patients, so he wouldn’t be back for a while.
Upon hearing footsteps entering, Jocelyn glanced over, "..." The two women’s eyes met. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
Vera looked at her freshly woken-up state, messy hair and rumpled clothes, lacking any feminine delicacy and the vitality of youth.
She couldn’t help but curl her lips upwards, carrying a hint of disdainful mockery.
"What do you mean?" Jocelyn turned around, took a few steps forward, not feeling awkward at all.
Vera asked, "What do you mean by what?"
Jocelyn, straightforward in nature, replied, "Why are you smiling?" Then glanced at her own outfit, looking unconcerned, "Are you really feeling superior coming here with makeup and high heels to compare states with an injured person?"
Vera was taken aback by her retort, thinking, this young girl sure has a sharp tongue! A bit lacking in upbringing!
Thus, to demonstrate her elegance, Vera warmly said, "Why are you using Dr. Shelby’s computer?"
Jocelyn stuffed another dumpling in her mouth and took another sip of soy milk, "Updating my novel! I’m an online writer and have a series that needs daily updates."
"I’m not interested in who you are." Vera wore a leisurely smile and kindly reminded, "Dr. Shelby is the hospital director..."
"I know." Jocelyn responded swiftly.
"Let me finish." Vera continued, "His computer contains many very important documents, if any were lost, you wouldn’t be able to bear the consequences."
Unexpectedly, Jocelyn ate two more dumplings, chewing and swallowing! Then she asked casually, "If I don’t touch it, how would the documents get lost?"
"..." Vera was rendered speechless, feeling a wave of frustration build in her chest.
Soon, Vera’s expression returned to calm and gentle, she inwardly chuckled, lips curved upwards, extending a hand towards her, "Hello, I’m Vera Ford, let’s officially meet today."
Jocelyn took one last big sip of the soy milk, draining the cup, "I know, you’re his sister, we met during the barbecue last time." She turned, putting down the bag with two leftover dumplings and the soy milk cup.
Vera’s hand had been outstretched for a while, she emphasized, "His last name is Shelby, mine is Ford, you really think he’s my brother?"
"..." Jocelyn turned her gaze to her, stunned for a moment, "Oh, so not a sister? Anyway, whatever relation you have, what does it matter to me?" she muttered to herself.
After speaking, Jocelyn smiled and shook her hand, "Hello, I’m Jocelyn Morgan! Jocelyn from ’Even with no confidant in the world’, Morgan from scenic beauty, and Morgan from ’Dream broken at the ’Jade Pavilion door’."
Wow, she’s quoting ancient poetry!
Vera inwardly chuckled again, knowing only the ’scenic beauty’ part, couldn’t match the other two characters.
"Does Miss Ford have any official business with me?"
Jocelyn let go of her hand, purposely emphasizing the word ’official’, then earnestly said, "If there’s nothing else, I think I should go to sleep, after all, staying up all night with the computer, I didn’t sleep well."
It’s unclear if this was intentional or not!
Earlier, Vera saw her pull the computer out from the bed, she actually slept with Ian’s belonging all night!
"I’m a doctor, Ian’s reliable assistant, at the hospital just call me Dr. Ford." Vera said.
Reliable assistant or not, Jocelyn didn’t care one bit.
She just asked, "So, according to you, calling him Ian at the hospital is inappropriate?"
"..." Vera was once again rendered speechless.
"Alright then, it’s just a name, call what feels comfortable!" Jocelyn flipped over onto the bed, beginning to lie down, "Remember to close the door, Dr. Ford, thank you!"
