Chapter 89: The anniversary party 1

As for why Mother Ford had to start such a place, it doesn’t need much thinking.

As long as one was smart, they would understand her intentions, and Vernon sighed in his heart.

Helena stopped thinking about that topic and continued to look at her phone, continuing reading from where she left off earlier.

They reached the venue in a while. They saw Vincent’s car still parked in the front. From the car, they looked outside to find that Vincent and Jemma were clicking pictures at the end of the red carpet.

This event is in no way on a small scale.

Jeffery’s holds multiple industries and would easily cover more than half a page of the business section in the newspapers every single day.

One of them was The Brilliance Entertainment, to which Vernon was the CEO. So, they also covered almost half of the entertainment page as well.

So, all sorts of reporters were invited to the event, and a red carpet was rolled out as well.

Once Vernon’s car came to the venue, all the eyes instantly turned towards it.

Everyone was more interested in the Jefferey’s new daughter-in-law compared to the President of the Jeffery Corps.

Vincent makes a rare appearance in the public and all the reporters would usually kill each other to get one picture of him.

Yet the situation today was somehow the complete opposite.

As soon as Vernon’s car stopped and the door opened, everyone rushed to the car and started clicking with their cameras like some drugged monkeys.

"Looks like having Helena in our family helped me a great deal for today," Vincent joked in his wife’s ear.

Jemma’s lips twitched. She couldn’t help but pinch his waist as punishment, "Be careful with your words. If she hears your words, she will pout the whole evening."

Vincent chuckled, "Yes, yes. My mistake. I don’t dare anger our Princess Helena."

Maybe because he had seen her grow up, he never had any qualms about teasing Helena. If it were anyone else, let alone teasing, Vincent wouldn’t even care to give them a glance.

Jemma knows this as well. Because of his influence, she too became close to Helena and was now very comfortable with teasing her.

By the time they were done talking, Vernon and Helena had already walked towards them.

Helena looked at the couple and narrowed her eyes, "What were you both talking about?"

Vincent and Jemma looked at each other. They turned back to her and in unison shook their heads, "Nothing."

They clearly wanted to live longer and avoid Helena’s wrath.

Helena scoffed, looking at their reactions, "Brother Vincent, Sister Jemma, both your reactions had already given you away. You were clearly making fun of me behind my back, right? Hmph! I won’t talk to you both."

She pouted her lips and turned her head away from the couple in an exaggerated manner.

"See? In the end, what I said had happened. It was all because of you," Jemma immediately scolded Vincent and even threw all the blame on him by siding with Helena, "Helena, it was your brother Vincent. He made fun of you, but I scolded him for you. You should be angry at him."

Vincent was stunned by Jemma’s actions of throwing him under the bus.

Before he could react, Jemma removed her hand from his arm and even held Helena’s while pointing her finger at him.

Vincent blinked his eyes and smiled helplessly. He shook his head and turned to look at his brother, who was looking at him in a gloating manner.

Vincent’s lips twitched. He scolded Vernon, "What are you laughing at?"

"Me? When did I laugh?" Vernon blinked his eyes innocently, and he even took a step towards Helena as if asking for her protection from his brother.

At this moment, only Helena could go against his brother.

Vincent was flabbergasted, "Fine fine. You all are one team. Only I am the outsider, right?"

The trio chuckled at his words but did not console him. They were enjoying this expression on the usually cold-faced Vincent. It’s really fun to tease him.

Vincent saw them laughing and smiled softly. "Okay, you both should take your pictures first." He looked at Helena and Vernon and reminded them.

Everyone was waiting for their pictures, after all.

Seeing that the two Masters and two Madams of the Jeffery family were talking to each other, no one dared to disturb them. But many of the reporters were silently clicking pictures of them in a hurry.

So, this is how the people of wealthy families interact with each other. Just these pictures would help them run their websites and blogs for a couple of months easily.

Then they started clicking pictures of Vernon and Helena as a couple, solo pictures of Vernon and Helena separately. They are the pictures of brothers Vincent and Vernon. Then the pictures of two daughters-in-law, Jemma and Helena. Every combination of pictures they could click, they clicked.

It is not every day that the Jefferys would comply with their requests for these pictures after all.

It is a rare opportunity, and they enjoyed it to the fullest.

Only when the reporters were completely satisfied did the two couples leave the place and enter the venue.

As soon as they entered the venue, all the eyes fell on them.

Even though Helena had just entered the Jeffery family, this wasn’t the first time she was meeting these people.

There were events of Jeffery’s before as well, and she attended almost all of them.

Except for her identity, nothing much had changed for her.

She casually entered the venue and mingled with the guests with ease.

The two couples greeted everyone they met on their way.

Vernon looked at his sister-in-law for a second and then looked at his brother. He slowly said, "Brother. I need to talk about something with you."

He had to warn his brother about Jemma’s impending kidnapping so that they wouldn’t have to suffer what they had suffered in his previous life.
