Chapter 189 Cancel the Engagement
Holding the phone, Jennifer chose to stay silent.
But Timothy didn’t hang up the phone, and they were stuck in silence.
Then, he said stiffly, “I won’t interfere in your relationship with other men, but it’s your fault to let out the scandal…”
Jennifer looked up to the sky while listening to his blames.
She didn’t say anything until he finished. Then, she said, “Well, how about we cancel the engagement?”
After speaking it out, she felt much more relieved.
She left the Hargreaves family and needed time to grow stronger so that she wouldn’t be compelled to come back.
That was why she found Timothy and made a win–win deal.
This was how they dealt with each other all the time, but after she slept with Timothy in drunkenness, their relationship seemed to change.
Jennifer thought she should stay away from Timothy to sever any chance of having different feelings for him.
That was not good for both of them.

Hearing her suggestion, he pulled his tie anxiously.
Eventually, he made no comments and directly hung up the phone.
He winded down the car window. With the breeze, he took off his tie and finally felt better.
She actually wanted to cancel their engagement.
Timothy wondered if she liked that singer so much.
Looking at his lame legs, he laughed at himself since, with his current condition, he really couldn’t keep her by his side.
Eric, in the passenger seat, turned around only to see Timothy in depression, which greatly shocked him.
Thanks to Jennifer, Timothy had been brighter than before.
But now, he had returned to the old state and locked himself away.
He wondered whether Timothy quarreled with Jennifer about the gossip headlines yesterday.
But Eric couldn’t help asking, “Mr. Clark, are we still going to the studio?”
When Timothy finished the meeting and saw Jennifer’s message, he didn’t even hesitate for a second and told the driver to take

him where she was.
But after that call, he turned abnormally silent.
Timothy said, “No.”
There was no need for him to be so enthusiastic to her as she didn’t need him.

Jennifer looked at the hung–up call and pressed her lips.
When Timothy misunderstands her relationship with Jason, she impulsively declares to cancel the engagement.
Now, she calmed down and realized how hotheaded she was.
During this period, the reason why she was able to escape unscathed from the confrontation with the Hargreaves family was inseparable from Timothy’s support.
But she couldn’t cry over the split milk.
Jennifer scratched her hair in annoyance in the face of endless trouble.
Moreover, Kelly stole her recorder.
So, Jennifer had no choice but to go to the studio although she had no mood to work; she just didn’t want to go to King Villa.

A colleague sent her a message: [Jennifer, there seem to be paparazzi sneaking around outside. Be careful when you go out.]
Jennifer: [I see. Thank you.]
She walked to the window irritably and pulled the curtains over to prevent the paparazzi from taking pictures through the window.
Then, she worked alone in the studio until late at night.
After glancing at the time, she peeked from the crack of the curtains and found the paparazzi were still there.
So, she returned to her workstation and prepared to work all night.
At this very moment, Jason called her. “Jennifer, can I treat you to dinner tonight? It’s indeed my carelessness. If we were in separate cars, there wouldn’t have been so many messes today.”
“It’s a setup, not entirely your fault. I should be responsible for that, too,” said Jennifer.
“Are you in the studio right now? I saw lights in the building,” he said.
Jennifer was startled and said, “Don’t get out of the car. There are paparazzi squatting outside. Don’t let them take pictures of you.”

“Paparazzi?”

Jason looked around and saw that there was, indeed, a car parked on the side of the road. It looked like a paparazzi’s car.
He said, “I’m sorry, I didn’t expect the paparazzi to come to your studio. I’ll help you drive them away.”
She said, “No, just don’t show up.”
Jennifer didn’t want to escalate the situation now.
Sitting in the car, Jason said after consideration, “You don’t sound in a good mood now. Did your fiancé argue with you?”
“Isn’t it normal for us to have conflicts when something like this happens?”
Jennifer smiled bitterly, “We can only wait for the public attention to subside.”
“I can explain to him in person that you and I are just cooperators,” he said.
Jennifer firmly refused, “Thank you, but no.”
He said, “Jennifer, I’m really sorry for what I have done. Is there anything I can do for you?”
She said, “I understand, but if you explain to Timothy, it will only irritate him. I can handle it myself.”

Jason had no choice but to unwillingly hang up the phone.
A good girl like Jennifer should not be trapped in a wealthy family and idle her talent and time to be a housewife.
He had to do something.

He thought about it and rolled down the window to reveal his face in front of the cameras.
