When She Stops Playing Nice
Chapter 297
Ashleyâs good impression of Gina dissipated because of Ginaâs words.
She was instantly angry again.
She thought, âWhat is the attitude?
âDoes she think she is my senior?
How dare she speak to me in such a tone?â
Jasmine was originally worried that Ashley would change her opinion of Gina because Gina had given her medicinal herb. However, when she heard Gina speak to Ashley so disrespectfully, Jasmine was relieved.
She thought. âIdiot. You missed the chance.â
In fact, it was very easy for Gina to please someone but she found it disdainful.
She did not care if Ashleyâs attitude towards her would change. She just wanted to say what she wanted to say.
Ashley did not want to ruin her birthday party, so she did not intend to argue with Gina.
She gestured to the waiter to pick up medicinal herbs from the ground. At this moment, Neil said, âAshley, pick it up yourself.â
âUncle⦠Ashley did not want to.
âWhat? You threw it on the ground. Shouldnât you pick it up?â Neil asked.
Ashley had nothing to say. She bent down reluctantly and picked up medicinal herb from the ground.
Then she put it away.
âAlright, alright. Sit down now. Itâs time to eat,â Neil said.
Gabriel also said to Gina, âGina, take a seat.â
Gina nodded and sat dowIL
Seeing that Gina could sit at the same table as Neil, Jasmine was about to go crazy with jealousy. She wanted to sit with them too. âAshley, can I sit with you?â
âSure. Sit next to me,â Ashley said.
Jasmine was very happy. Fortunately, Ashley had returned from overseas. She had someone who supported her in the Jackson family.
Ashley got someone to bring an extra chair for Jasmine.
Jasmine looked at Cina smugly. Gina had the support of Neil, so what?
She had Ashleyâs support!
Unfortunately, Gina completely ignored her.
Jasmine clenched her fists.

She thought, âBi*ch!â
âSooner or later, Iâll take Gabriel away from you and you will di
die.

After all, sheâd already found out the truth about the car accidentâ¦
Ethan told her that it was Gina who paid Mike. The tanker accident was plotted by Gina. She wanted to kill her and take Gabriel away.
But she had to remain silent for the time being because she didnt have evidence.
But she had sworn to make Gina pay back a hundredfold.
Jasmine thought to herself.
After a while, two waiters came over with a painting.
Jasmine said. âAshley, this is my gift.â
Ashley turned around to take a look. The painting was still covered by the canvas, Jasmine gestured for the waiter to remove
the canvas.
A painting of a rose manor was displayed in front of everyone.
Jasmine said, âAshley, I specially asked Mr. Ocean to draw this for you as a birthday present.â
Mr. Ocean was a world-renowned oil painter. Jasmine had spent 18 million dollars on the painting.
However, she did not expect that the onion-like medicinal herbi brought by Gina actually worth 40 million dollars. That was unbelievable. But it was the fact.
It was obvious that Ashley believed her.
Jasmine thought. If Gina hadnât come, my gift would have been the most valuable gift.
âB*tch! She stole my limelight.â
Her resentment towards Gina increased.
Hearing Mr. Oceanâs name, Ashley liked the gift very much. She niled and nodded. âThank you, Jasmine.â
Jasmine smiled happily.
Ashley was about to ask the waiter to put the painting away when Harry arrived. He was already late.
When Ashley saw Harry, she immediately stood up and said, âDad! Didnât you say that you were busy and wouldnât come to my birthday banquet?â
âI was lying to you. My dear daughter, you finally came back. How can I miss your birthday?â Harry said in a delighted tone.
He had lied. In reality, he came because he heard Gabriel had brought Gina here.
He said he wouldnât allow Gina to marry into the Jackson family, She had ruined his things several times. If she became part of the Jackson family, things would be harder for him.
In his opinion, Gina was not easy to deal with.
Ashley hugged Harryâs arm happily. âDad, if youâre busy, you donât have to come. Iâm an adult now. I wonât be mad at you.â

Chapter 297
When Ashley was young, Harry was busy with business overseas. They barely spent time together. Later, Harry divorced his wife and Ashley was brought overseas by her mother. Originally, her mother did not allow Ashley to have any more contact with Harry.
However, as Ashley grew up, her mother gradually lost control of her. So Ashley could occasionally return to the country to visit her father.
In her heart, she hoped for a family.
Harry looked at his daughter and smiled. He touched Ashleyâs head and then noticed the painting that the waiter was holding. âWhatâs this?â
Ashley said. âThis is a gift from Jasmine.â
Harry praised perfunctorily. âItâs wonderful.â
Ashley agreed. âYeah. Itâs great! It was drawn by Mr. Ocean.â
Mr. Oceanâ¦
After hearing this title, Harry suddenly had an ideaâ¦.
Harry suddenly said, âAshley, today is such a good day. Why dont we take a family photo?â
Ashley agreed. âSure, of course, we have to take photos to record this happy moment!â
Letâs take a photo with this painting. Letâs raise our glasses!â
Harry suggested, âTake the painting and stand in the middle. The rest of us will stand beside you.â
Ashley agreed.
However, they canât take the photo in the dining room of the cruise ship. Ashley planned to have it taken on the board.
âJames, Gabriel, letâs go. Letâs take a photo with Ashley.â
Speaking of which, Neil had not seen Ashley for many years. After all, she was Liamâs daughter. He also loved his niece. If Ashley did not have any hostility towards Gina, Neil would have been even nicer to Ashley.
However, he could not reject the invitation at this time just because he cared about Ashleyâs attitude towards Gina. âOkay He stood up.
