Chapter 660
Even After Death
Olivia was afraid that this meeting would cause Janiceâs condition to worsen. She observed all of their
expressions anxiously.
Kenneth finally noticed Janiceâs presence. His gaze fell on her momentarily before moving away.
The emotions in his eyes were conflicted. Several emotions were swirling within.
Janice didnât even look at him. She muttered, âJust my fucking luck.â
Her voice wasnât loud, but everyone could hear it.
Janice waved at the salesperson and said, âPack up all these I have tried on.â
The salesperson said uneasily, âAbout that⦠Mrs. Miller Senior had reserved them in advance.
They are our last pair. I showed them to you to match them with the necklace.â
Mrs. Miller Senior. These three words were quite ironic.
Jessica quickly said, âItâs fine, Janice. Weâre a family, after all. If you like these earrings, you can have
them.
âKenneth can pay for them. Itâll be our gift to Olivia.
âRight, Kenneth. This is Ethanâs wife. I donât think youâve met her before.â
What a considerate woman Jessica was. Olivia suddenly understood why Kenneth would leave
Janice for Jessica.
Janiceâs upbringing basically made sure she would be a proud heiress. She never needed to be
considerate of other peopleâs feelings, and everyone in her family doted on her.
Even when she fell in love, she did things her way. She never stopped to consider other peopleâs
feelings like Jessica.
Kennethâs status was similar to Janiceâs. It was only natural that he would prefer a more docile
woman like Jessica.
Kenneth said slowly, âHow much is it? Iâll pay for it.â
Janice, who had remained silent the whole time, looked at them expressionlessly and asked
Olivia, âDo you like these earrings, dear?â
Olivia quickly shook her head and said, âThe design and color are subpar. After a closer look, I donât
really like it.â
She proceeded to take off the necklace and put it back. She even thanked the salesperson politely.
Her actions pleased Janice.
Janice leaned on the counter lazily and said, âIâll take everything other than the ones that woman
looked at or touched.â
The salesperson stammered, âAll⦠All of them?â
Janice took out a black card and said, âSwipe this card. Pack everything up and deliver it to my place.â
The salesperson carefully picked up the card and went to process the transaction. The
salesperson had rarely seen such a big spender, even in a place like this.
Olivia finally witnessed the scene where the rich and powerful man stands up for the helpless
woman, just like in the movies. But she felt like Janice was still the cooler one.
Janice patted Oliviaâs hand and said with a smile, âLiv, Iâve told you before. You donât even need to
hold back when spending.
âWe have plenty of money. Letâs look at some handbags over there.â
âOkay.â
Olivia nodded at Kenneth and Jessica. Then she said, âPlease let us through.â
Jessica watched as Janice left. She felt like Janice was different from before.
In the past, Janice would throw a fit when others addressed Jessica as Mrs. Miller Senior. But she
didnât even look at Kenneth, whom she loved so much, this time.
Janice walked away without looking back, treating Kenneth like he didnât exist.
Kenneth felt uncomfortable being ignored by Janice. He spoke up again. âJanice.â
In the past, Janice would come running whenever he uttered her name. She was like his most
faithful believer who yearned for his love. But this time, her footsteps didnât even slow down.
Curious about the expression Kenneth was making, Olivia looked back at him.
