9.26% Reborn For Revenge: Unexpected Marriage With Mr. CEO / Chapter 19: Fighting Back

Capítulo 19: Fighting Back

When the two Rocelyn sisters were secretly competing, a group of people closer to Jessica were super surprised when she shouted, "Eclipse!"

Eclipse?

The Eclipse Rocelyn who got kicked out of the Jade Family because of rumors about her private life?

No way!

Everyone stared at the stunning woman standing there. They couldn't believe this was the same Eclipse Rocelyn from all the bad rumors they'd heard.

They were so shocked they couldn't even react.

Meanwhile, some people further away, who hadn't heard Jessica shout, were just looking at Eclipse, wondering who she was.

"Whose daughter is this? The men in Star City must be losing their minds right now!"

"I thought Jessica was pretty, but compared to this girl, Jessica doesn't even come close!"

"Is Jessica serious? Her looks and vibe are way off. Why would she go up to Eclipse like that? She looks like she doesn't even belong!"

Hearing people say she wasn't as good as Eclipse, Jessica dug her nails into her palms and tried to stay calm. She glared at Eclipse's cold, smiling face, and she was burning up with jealousy. She hated when people said she was worse than Eclipse!

Most of the women there were jealous, while all the rich guys were totally amazed by Eclipse.

Even Robert Jade, who had known Eclipse was pretty, was stunned. The Eclipse standing at the door was graceful and way more beautiful than the sickly girl he remembered, who used to have bandages on her head. Now she looked like a shining star, completely outshining every other rich girl in Star City.

Mrs. Jade wasn't surprised at all. She saw Robert's expression and sneered, "I told you before that Eclipse might be better than Jessica. Did you ever think about where her mom came from?"

But Robert had been obsessed with Jessica for too long, and he never saw anyone but her.

Eclipse hadn't been doing well before, but now it was too late. Her reputation was already ruined.

Robert tried to hold back the strange feelings rising up inside him as he started walking downstairs.

Eclipse stared at Jessica's jealous eyes for a bit, then tilted her head and smirked, "See that? Compared to me, you're so ugly, it hurts to look at you!"

After saying that, Eclipse bumped into Jessica's shoulder and walked into the room on her high heels.

Suddenly, Jessica grabbed Eclipse's wrist, raised her voice, and said sweetly, "Eclipse, I know I was wrong. I'm glad you came today—"

But at the same time, Jessica's sharp nails went straight for Eclipse's heart. If she couldn't have it, she was going to destroy it!

Eclipse sneered, dodged to the side, and then slapped Jessica hard across the face.

_SMACK—_

Everyone gasped as Jessica took the slap. Her face whipped to one side, her eyes wide with shock. How could Eclipse hit her like that?

Jessica's body went limp, and she was about to fake a fall. But before she could, Eclipse's high heel came down hard on her foot, crushing it.

"AHHH!"

Jessica screamed as she lost her balance and crashed into the fancy champagne tower.

With a loud crash, the beautiful tower of champagne came tumbling down, shattered into a pile of glass.

Everyone watched as Jessica lay in the middle of the broken glass, soaked in drinks and looking totally humiliated.

Her dress was ruined, her hair a mess, and her skin was covered in little cuts from the glass.

Someone in the crowd whispered, "Eclipse!"

The sound of the glass tower shattering was so loud that everyone turned to see what had happened.

For a moment, the entire hall was silent. Then, a clear, confident voice broke through the quiet, "Jessica, you've been pulling this same stunt for over a decade. Don't you feel embarrassed? I'm already tired of it!"

Everyone stared at the beautiful woman standing over Jessica. She was smiling, but her eyes were cold.

Suddenly, two voices shouted, "Jessica!"

Mrs. Rocelyn and Robert rushed toward her. Robert helped Jessica up, and when he saw her covered in injuries, he glared at Eclipse, "Eclipse!"

Mrs. Rocelyn, seeing her daughter hurt, didn't think twice. She raised her hand and tried to slap Eclipse, "You little brat!"

But Eclipse stepped back, and Mrs. Rocelyn's hand hit nothing but air. She glared at Eclipse like she wanted to tear her apart.

Eclipse just smirked, her eyes cold. "Mrs. Rocelyn, you're just a mistress who stole someone else's place. How dare you insult the real Rocelyn heiress in public? Who do you think you are?"

Mrs. Rocelyn was so mad she was about to shout back, but Jessica quickly raised her hand to stop her. "Mom, it was my fault. It has nothing to do with Eclipse."

Jessica stood up shakily, pushing Robert away. Her foot throbbed with pain, the mark from Eclipse's heel clear on her shoe.

Even so, Jessica smiled at Eclipse, pretending to be kind. "Eclipse, I'm glad you're here with the Jade Family today. Dad's really worried about you. After Mr. Lu's birthday, let's go home together."

Eclipse's eyes went icy, and she sneered, "But I don't want to see your fake, ugly face. If Mr. Lu hadn't personally begged me to come, I wouldn't even be here."

Jessica and Robert's faces both twisted in shock.

Finally, the crowd started to react to what had just happened.

"Oh my gosh, is that Eclipse? The one who got kicked out of the Jade Family? I thought she was supposed to be ugly!"

"I can't believe she's the Rocelyn family's useless daughter! This is nothing like the rumors."

"What's the point of being pretty if you have a bad heart?"

"How could she show up at the Jade Family event and bully Jessica like that? This is way too much!"

"With daughters and fiancées like this, both the Rocelyn and Jade families are doomed!"

Robert saw Jessica being treated like this and couldn't stand it anymore. His face turned red as he glared at Eclipse, "Apologize to Jessica!"

Eclipse just smiled. "Apologize? Does she even deserve it?"

Capítulo 20: Apologize to Eclipse

Eclipse gave a slight smile. "Apologize? Is she even worth it?"

Even though she smiled, her face showed no kindness, only mockery.

Robert grabbed Jessica's hand and glared at Eclipse. "Eclipse!"

Eclipse held a glass of red wine, looking down on the three people below her. She smiled, but there wasn't any fun in her eyes. "I think Mr. Benjamin needs to get his eyes checked."

She pointed at Jessica. "She's the daughter of a mistress, the one who made my mom hate my dad, and now she's taken over my dad, my home, my name as First Miss Rocelyn, and my fiancé. She's done all kinds of bad things, yet acts like she's innocent and sweet..."

"And now you dare to ask me, the victim, to apologize to her? Robert, are you really that dumb? Do you even have a brain?"

Jessica leaned weakly on Robert's chest, crying as Eclipse's words hurt her deeply.

Robert's face was red with anger. He looked like he wanted to scream at Eclipse. "You're nothing but a wild animal, always blaming others for your problems and wondering why nobody likes you. Eclipse, don't you have any shame?"

The other women in the room began to murmur in agreement.

"Mr Robert is right. Before accusing Miss Jessica, can you explain those photos?"

"Some people are really fake. They should look at their own actions before pointing fingers."

"What's the point of being pretty if your heart is ugly?"

Eclipse looked at the women, her eyes cold. They were all Jessica's friends.

It's normal to be jealous, especially when someone you thought was ugly suddenly looks beautiful.

That kind of change messes with people's heads. They wanted to rip apart Eclipse's pride and make her feel small, so they could laugh and stomp all over her.

They stood behind Jessica, their eyes filled with jealousy.

Eclipse smiled slightly and looked at Robert. "Is it that I have no shame, or are you two just disgusting?"

Robert's anger was clear, but Eclipse didn't care. She tilted her head and sneered, her voice soft but cold. "As my fiancé, on my birthday, you were with Jessica. When I was sick, you were with Jessica. When I needed you, you were with Jessica."

She paused, her smile fading. "You've given her clothes, bags, and makeup. What have you ever given me?"

Eclipse's gaze turned sharp, her voice colder than ever. "My fiancé spends all his time with my stepsister, and then has the nerve to say I should be more understanding. Robert, do you really think you have the right to judge me?"

Robert looked away, guilt flashing across his face.

Jessica looked panicked, her eyes red. "It's not like that, Eclipse. Mr. Robert and I are innocent. We never did anything to hurt you..."

But Eclipse wasn't buying it. "Innocent? Really? I don't believe a word you say."

Robert's face twisted with anger. "Eclipse, you're just cheap! I'm in a real relationship with Jessica, who is kind and gentle, unlike you. You'll be with any man who shows interest!"

Eclipse laughed, her eyes cold. "I'd rather be with anyone than be stuck with you."

Robert yelled, "Get out!"

Eclipse smiled, not really caring. "Don't worry, I have no interest in being part of your Jade family."

With that, she turned to leave.

Jessica watched her go, a small smile creeping onto her face.

Robert was still in shock as Eclipse walked away.

Before he could say anything, he heard a loud, angry voice. "Robert!"

He turned to see his mom, Mrs. Jade, fuming.

Realizing what he had done, his face went pale.

Mrs. Jade was shaking with anger. She had arrived just a little too late, and in his foolishness, Robert had ruined everything she had planned so carefully.

Mrs. Jade pointed toward the door Eclipse had left through and glared at Robert. "Go apologize to Eclipse!"

Jessica's smile disappeared.

She tried to say something, but Mrs. Jade looked at her coldly. "Jessica, Robert is engaged to Eclipse, and you were hanging on to him in front of her. Don't you think that's inappropriate?"

Jessica went pale, pulling her hand away from Robert. "I'm sorry, Mrs. Jade. I didn't mean to..."

Robert looked at her with pity, but then he turned to where Eclipse had gone and called out angrily, "Eclipse, wait!"

Before, no matter what he did, if he called, Eclipse would always come back.

But this time, Eclipse didn't even look back. She was done.

Robert's face darkened.

Mrs. Jade watched as Eclipse got farther away, realizing that the 20% of the company shares they had hoped for were now gone.

She raised her hand and slapped Robert, hard.

The sound echoed through the room, leaving everyone stunned.

Even Jessica was shocked.

Mrs. Jade hurried after Eclipse. "Eclipse, I punished that idiot for you! I know it's all his fault. Please give him another chance..."

But Eclipse just stepped away, dodging her touch.

Her face was cold as she looked at Mrs. Jade. "A smart person doesn't go back to a rotten old field, and that's exactly what your family is."
