Chapter 20 - I Will Snatch Your Man Again!

Ch-20

"I will take this," the girl said.

"Okay, Lil girl," Eleanor said.

"What's your name?" Eleanor asked.

"Katherine," she replied.

"Nice name," Eleanor replied.

"Thank you," she said, as she blushed hard.

"Miss. Please take it out for her?" Eleanor asked the saleslady.

"Wait!" they could hear a loud voice in the halls of the shopping floor.

"I saw this and bought it. You can forget about buying that," a haughty and arrogant voice said.

Katherine was wondering who dares to use that voice to tell her that too the brain-dead woman wants to steal the woman which was chosen by her. Her audacity has no bounds. She messaged something on her phone before turning around.

"Miss. Jessica Cole, We have already chosen the dress and we aren't giving it up, just because the moment you came here you liked this," Eleanor said.

"Ayya… Eleanor. Did you forget I like to steal the things that belonged to you?" Jessica said.

"That is the reason you are always my shadow. A shadow should never come out. It should always stay on the ground," Eleanor said half handedly.

"You!?" she pointed her finger to Eleanor as she wanted to say something but couldn't find any words. But she realized it was true. She lived on the charity of Eleanor. When her family was in problems, she helped them. She bought her wonderful dresses and shared her luxurious meals. Eleanor allowed no one to look down on Jessica. As years passed, Eleanor continued to help them. They got better soon but everyone mocked her saying that she was a beggar. An exclusive beggar of Eleanor, who begs for clothes, bags, food, and business. Everyone mocked that Cole family people were beggars of Eleanor Zora. As days passed, she only felt anger, resentment, and hatred. All the handsome men used to go to Eleanor to propose to her, but no one came to her. There was once she dated a guy in her schooling. After they got together, he directly asked her to ask Eleanor's help to help his family. He even shamelessly said that he dated just to gain favors from Eleanor through Jessica, just like how she and her family are getting. Eleanor unknowingly shattered her first love dreams into pieces just because of her. After their family got better, she also tried to become a top socialite but was always beaten by Eleanor. Every socialite used to mock her for being an exclusive beggar of Eleanor. There was even a time where she was asked whether she licked Eleanor's shoes.

All the resentment, mockery, and insults were thrown on her because of Eleanor. If she could embarrass her and make her business, go down the drain. Then Eleanor would come to beg her and she would turn into an exclusive beggar of Jessica.

Jessica couldn't take it when she got to know Eleanor was dating Jacob. So… she seduced him on Eleanor's twentieth birthday in their drunken stupor. That day, she called Zora's driver and sent her home. While she kissed the drunken Jacob. Jacob, who was already in a drunken state, felt aroused when he got kissed by her. They went to the nearest hotel and made out. From then on she acted like a weak, bullied, and gullible one. She always made it seem like Eleanor was an arrogant grinch. And she always treated Jessica as trash. The scummy Jacob believed this white lotus's white lies and fell for her. They continued their scummy relationship behind the curtains and developed to their present stage.

And even today… She wanted to buy a dress for today's annual ceremony of Emerson's. She wanted to wear the best dress and impress Cedric. Jessica wanted to 'clear' the things about her marriage. If she could succeed, then she could divorce the scum and marry Cedric. If can't she could only settle down with Jacob. When she entered this shop, she saw that there were a lot of fitting dresses. As she walked forward, she heard Eleanor's voice talking to a kid. Eleanor's presence did not surprise her because this is the best shop for gowns. She walked further, only to find a beautiful yellow dress. Jessica's eyes fell on it and she snatched it, as always.

"Ahh… What about me?" Eleanor asked as she brought Jessica out of her lane of thoughts.

"Not everything could be snatched, Jessica!" Myna chirped in.

"Can be. If I can snatch a man, I could snatch a dress too," she said as she waved her hand.

"You never snatched him, Jessica. You took scum from me while saving me," Eleanor said as if it's a matter of fact.

"Oh! Then I shall take the other scum from you again," Jessica said as she tried to crack Eleanor's arrogant posture. She wanted to scratch her beautiful face and ruin it, but she couldn't. So, she wanted to anger her to where she felt like she couldn't breathe and make her act like a shrew. But no matter how much she provoked. This woman showed no reaction or changed her reaction. She hated it. Whenever she sees Eleanor she remembers all the insults she bore. So, she wanted to rile her up and embarrass her. But no matter what she did, she couldn't do it. So… she could only use her sore spot, Cedric Emerson. But she only got a confused look from Eleanor. Jessica gave a mocking smile to her as she continued further.

"Eleanor, do you know I am attending the banquet of Emerson? I heard you couldn't attend it, since your dad is attending. So, I will attend it in your place and give your boyfriend my company.. I will use this chance to get together with him and will take him away from you again."
