Ex-Husband’s Regret: Barren Mommy Has Quadruplets by Dolly Molly

Chapter 564 Another Show–Off

After hanging up the phone, a smile lingered on Aletta

Jason glanced at her and couldn’t help but ask, “Who just called?”

“Jock, she’s here for a commercial shootout,” Aletta replied with a

smile.

“I’m going out for lunch with her later. Would you like to join us?”

Jason pondered for a moment and nodded. “Sure, we should treat her to a meal. She helped you a lot before, and

it’s rare for her to visit Los Angeles. We should show our hospitality.”

Just as he finished speaking. Eaton knocked on the door and reported, “Mr. Hill, the chairman of Glorious Group has

come to see you.

Jason furrowed his brows, his plan had been interrupted.

Aletta glanced at his expression and reassured him, “It’s all right. Jock will be here for a few days for her

commercial shootout. You can join us for a meal another day!”

Jason had no objections upon hearing her words. “I’ll have someone send you over and call me if you need

anything.”

“No, I’ll drive myself,” Aletta replied

“All right, be careful.”

Soon, Aletta set off alone.

Due to Jock’s unique working nature, Aletta picked her up at the employee entrance of the hotel.

Jock came out after receiving the call, wearing oversized sunglasses, and she dressed inconspicuously in a mask,

hat, and coat that had completely concealed her appearance.

Aletta lowered the car window and waved to her.

Jock quickened her pace and got into the car, then let out a sigh. “That was suffocating.”

She began removing the disguise and raised her face, asking Aletta, “Take a quick look, did my makeup smudge?”

Aletta chuckled. “No, it’s good. Why did you dress up like that?”

Upon hearing this, Jock relaxed and replied somewhat helplessly, “What can I do? There are reporters at the front

and back entrances of the hotel, and a bunch of them lurking in the basement as well. The fans in France are crazy

too. We had to negotiate with the hotel just to use the employee entrance today.”

Aletta understood her difficulties and sighed. “It seems that you are popular. Should I ask for a few autographs

later? I can sell them and make a fortune!”

Jock laughed at her comment. “Are you obsessed with money? Please drive, I’m starving…”

“All right,” Aletta responded while turning the steering wheel and started driving.

She took Jock to a hidden restaurant.

“You can enjoy your meal here without worrying about the paparazzi,” Aletta said as she looked at the restaurant.

Jock was satisfied and praised, “Not bad, you have good taste. The environment is cosy.”

Being praised, Aletta smiled and explained, “My husband made the reservation. He was supposed to come too, but

he got caught up with work at the last minute. He’ll have to arrange another day to meet you.”

Upon hearing her intimate address, Jock expressed her delight, exclaiming, “Here comes another show–off?”

She haughtily huffed, “I have to check my schedule. I’m very busy too, you know?”

Aletta knew that she was teasing herself, and she laughed in response, saying, “All right then, I’ll let him know and

make an appointment in advance…”

The two bantered and entered a private room.

With Jock’s arrival, Aletta’s mood was slightly relaxed.

They ordered a few dishes and chatted non–stop while eating.

Jock would stay in Los Angeles for about a week.

Today was her day off, and the shoutout would start tomorrow.

After listening to Jock’s schedule, Aletta asked about her plans. “With your current popularity, are you going to

perform in TV dramas or movies soon?”

Jock shook her head and said, “I’m not considering that at the moment. I became a model because I love beautiful

clothes and I love showcasing my great makeup in an advertisement shootout! But being an actor is tiring and

challenging. I have no interest in it and most importantly, I have enough money!”

Aletta agreed with her perspective.

With Jock’s status and fame, it wasn’t necessary to endure such

hardships if she didn’t genuinely enjoy it.

Moreover, the entertainment industry was complicated and

treacherous. If one didn’t rely on it for a living, there was truly no point to venture into it.

The two had a pleasant lunch, and as the lunch session was about the end, Aletta stood up and said, “I’m full. I’m

going to the restroom.”

Upon hearing this, Jock got up and said, “Wait for me, I’ll join you. I need to freshen up too.”

Aletta nodded, and the two left the private room together.

Aletta caught sight of a familiar figure shortly after they stepped out.

She involuntarily paused her steps and took a closer look.

It seemed to be… Jenny?

Aletta’s eyebrows instinctively furrowed.

She didn’t expect to encounter her here.

However, Jason had said that Jenny had already been taken away by Old Mr. Hill.

So why was she here now? xo.com fast update

Moreover, her expression seemed somewhat off.

Jock noticed Aletta’s hesitation and turned back to ask, “What’s wrong? Do you know that person?” She had also

seen Jenny.

Aletta pursed her lips and nodded, “That’s Jenny, Jason’s mother.”

She couldn’t bring herself to call her “mother–in–law.”

Jenny didn’t deserve it!

Jock was aware of Jenny and how she had treated Aletta in the past.

She looked back in Jenny’s direction and said, “Is that so? I’d like to see what kind of extraordinary noblewoman

dares to look down on you!”

As soon as she finished speaking, two more figures appeared beside Jenny.

It was a man and a woman.

Jock squinted her eyes and said, “Those two…

Aletta saw them too.

The man and the woman stood out remarkably.

The man exuded a dark and cold aura, giving off an eerie, snake–like sense of gloom.

The woman was dressed in a black and red vintage gown, with a small lace–trimmed hat adorning her head,

partially obscuring half of her face.

While such attire might not unique abroad, it stood out remarkably here.

It was impossible not to draw attention.

Aletta inexplicably felt a sense of danger. “Those two…they give off an unsettling vibe,” she remarked.

After observing them for a while, Jock added. “Did you notice the way the man walked? He had a steady gait and

exuded a strong sense of power. He’s probably trained and skilled. As for the woman beside

him… she seems mysterious and dubious.”

As they continued their conversation, Panther seemed to sense someone watching them and abruptly turned to

look in their direction.

Jock quickly reacted, pulling Aletta and hastily seeking refuge in an unoccupied private room.

“What’s wrong?” Countess inquired upon noticing Panther’s strange behaviour.

Panther promptly replied, “Nothing, probably just an illusion.”

Without wasting any words, Countess said, “Let’s go then, don’t waste any more time,”

She led Panther and Jenny directly into a private room.

Aletta had a foreboding after watching this scene unfold.

Jenny’s eyes had been vacant and lifeless just a moment ago as if she were under someone’s control…

Aletta recalled Jason’s words from last night.

Could it be that those two were hypnotists who had hypnotized Jenny?
