The Second Act Revenge (Oneida and Jackson)

Chapter 213

He instinctively reached out, attempting to take Oneida's hand.

Unfortunately, Oneida walked too fast so he didn't even touch her lingers. Jackson's hand slowly dropped back down, as if nothing had happened. Oneida went straight to her room.

At this moment, she received a call from Edmund.

Oneida looked down at it and a smile hovered on her lips.

She knew Edmund must be alright now.

Oneida answered the phone and said softly, "Edmund."

She heard Edmund's voice clearly. "Oneida, I'm back from the police station."

Oneida was hot surprised.

When she learned that Wyatt was there, she knew Edmund would naturally be out

Oneida said softly. "Great"

Edmund said. "But, I didn't expect this was all Wyatt's doing! He even deliberately threw my school badge at the scene to

frame me....

Edmund was resentful and his voice was extremely cold.

He continued, "Luckily, he's been taken to the police station and it seems that he won't be out very soon. Grandpa, Grandma. my uncle, and my aunt are utterly devastated. I might feel sympathetic toward them in the past but now, I only feel happy because justice is served.

"By the way, Ashley was taken to the police station too, for perjury

Edmund kept talking about it for a long time and updating Oneida on everything.

Oneida listened to him quietly, looking composed. It seemed that everything was within her expectations.

"By the way, Oneida, there's another thing I want to tell you. Edmund added, sounding like it was a mysterious thing. "After I went to the police station, people there didn't treat me well at first. But later, someone helped me. I was transferred to a new room and I was taken good care of" Hearing this, Oneida froze for a moment

She didn't know this until now,

Oneida immediately asked. "Do you know who helped you?"

Edmund pondered for a brief moment and then said. "I think it was Christopher."

Oneida thought, Christopher?"

Her eyes darkened and her expression suddenly became complex.

Recalling what Christopher said to her at the front gate of the Chaser residence, when he was interrupted by Victor.

He mentioned he had friends working at the police station backben.

Oneida wondered if it was his friends who secretly took care of Bilmund.

Edmund said, "Oneida, why don't you treat him to a dinner? Edmund was unaware of the history between Christopher and Oneida. He just thought Christopher had been Jennifer's close friend since childhood and didn't think Christopher was a bad person. He added, "After all, he helped me a lot."

Oneida looked down, looking reluctant.

Oneida said, "Edmund. I can't do that."

She just directly refused it.

She thought, How could I possibly invite Christopher to dinner

Tve not lost my mind"

Even to this day, she still couldn't stay calm in front of him, let alone have dinner with him.

Moreover, she had already promised Jackson that she would keep her distance from other men.

Edmund frowned, confused, "Why?"

You're still a kid. You can't understand it." Oneida clamped her lips together and then said, "If you want to return the favor, have dinner with him yourself."

Hearing this, Edmund immediately said, "You're just a little bit older than me. You're still a kid too

Oneida thought, 'Considering my previous life, I am definitely much older than him."

"But you have to go, Edmund was insistent on it. "I've already promised Christopher that you would invite him to dinner."

Oneida's eyes darkened with displeasure. She said, "What, you already told him?"

She blurted out, "You..." But she couldn't figure out how to put it Obviously, she was infuriated by Edmund

Edmund noticed that Oneida sounded uneasy so he suddenly felt nervous, "Did I did I do it wrong?"

After a brief silence, Oneida calmed down. She sighed, "All right. I'll have dinner with him."

On second thought, Oneida thought she needed to talk with Christopher again.

She had to put an end to the things between her and him.

If he kept pestering her like how he did before, it would inevitably not only

cause trouble for her but also upset Jackson

She had to talk to him and persuaded him to give up.

Edmund didn't expect Oneida to change her mind again so he was naturally overjoyed. He said, "Really?"

Oneida nodded somewhat absentmindedly. "I'll decide the restaurant. Send the location to Christopher after I make the decision Edmund was puzzled. "Why don't you call him yourself?"

Oneida instantly felt a headache. She said resolutely, "Just do as I say."

She thought, 'How could she possibly contact Christopher herself?'

She hung up the phone

Oneida still felt somewhat irritable.

Having dinner with Christopher was a minor issue but Jackson was involved.

She had just promised Jackson that she would keep her distance from other men.

Oneida decided not to think about it anymore.

After washing up, she went straight to bed.

She decided to stop thinking about it and go to sleep first.

She planned to think about how to explain it to Jackson when she woke up tomorrow. The next morning.

As soon as Oneida walked into the dining room, she saw Jackson sitting inside.

He was elegantly having breakfast, like a nobleman straight out of a movie. Every movement of his was refined and beautiful.

Oneida couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

She realized that she seldom bumped into Jackson in the dining room.

Today, whether by luck or misfortune, he happened to be here.

Oneida walked over to him, pulled over a chair, and sat opposite Jackson.

The servant next to Jackson asked Oneida gently, "What would you like to eat, ma'am?"

Hearing this, as if possessed by the devil, Oneida blurted out, "The same as his, please.

The servant nodded and smiled, "Okay. I'll get it for you right away."

Suddenly, Jackson's hands paused and he looked up at Oneida,

Oneida happened to be looking at Jackson too.

Their eyes instantly met.

Being stared at by his deep and enigmatic eyes, Oneida suddenly felt a guilty conscience,

She instinctively lowered her head.

At this moment, the servant put some steaming food in front of Oneida. "Ma'am."

Oneida nodded and then picked up her knife.

Seeing that Jackson was still staring at her, Oneida plucked up the courage to break the silence. "Morning, Jackson." Jackson merely nodded indifferently.

Seeing that his mood seemed not too bad, Oneida breathed a sigh of relief and added. "Jackson, I with you."

Jackson opened his mouth slightly and said gently, T'm listening

nt to discuss something

Oneida hesitated for a moment and then said, "You probably have heard what happened to Edmund. When he was detained at the police station, someone helped him or he would have suffered a lot. So... I'm thinking about inviting that person to a dinner. What do you think about it?"

After that, Oneida looked somewhat nervously at Jackson.

Jackson didn't frown with displeasure as what she expected. Instead, he looked relaxed.

Jackson agreed with it readily. "Go ahead."
