Cherished By Seven Sisters

Chapter 271 There Are Already Seven
After consuming several glasses of red wine, Jacqueline began to appear different.
Her cheeks were flushed, and her gaze seemed distant. It was unclear whether she was genuinely drunk or pretending to be. As
she spoke, she swayed, “Emrys, do you know? I genuinely like you, and it has nothing to do with family interests. Last time at my
house, when you were drunk, my father wanted us to sleep together...”
She poured her heart out to Emrys, unaware that during their last encounter at the Balford residence, Emrys had only pretended
to be drunk to test her.
Emrys fell silent for a moment.

Without waiting for his response, Jacqueline leaned in and said, “Emrys, regardless of how you about me, I think that if I could
give my first time to such an outstanding man like you, I would be very satisfied.”
She had come tonight, prepared to sacrifice herself after summoning a great deal of courage.
This was different from last time.
Last time, she believed Emrys was drunk. If she were to sleep with him under those circumstances, Jacqueline felt it would be
inappropriate. However, tonight was different because Emrys was sober. If he could accept her...
Jacqueline had already made the necessary preparations.
At this critical moment, Emrys hesitated, remaining motionless for a long time. In the end, even Yelena, who was hiding on the
balcony and peeking, couldn’t bear it any longer. She rushed in, grabbed Emrys‘ ear, and said, “Emrys, you’re such a jerk. Why
did you flirt with her if you have no intention of being with her?”
In that moment, Emrys actually thought Yelena was possessed by Cordelia and quickly begged for mercy, saying, “Lena, please
let go, it hurts!”
“Hmph, serves you right. Who asked you to fool around with other women?” Yelena said angrily.
Wait, are you blaming me for being promiscuous or flirting without the intention of being together?

In truth, even Yelena herself didn’t know the answer to this question.
She was also very conflicted inside.
“Who are you?”
When Jacqueline saw a person suddenly rush onto the balcony, and moreover, a stunning beauty, she was instantly startled. The
slightly tipsy feeling she had just moments ago immediately disappeared, bringing her back to sobriety.
The scent of the perfume is very familiar, so it was her who was here earlier. Emrys must have known about her. He just
deliberately kept it from me.

Chapter 271 There Are Already Seven
At that moment, a pang of pain surged within Jacqueline’s heart, and a shade of dejection emerged in her eyes.
Originally, Yelena had looked at Jacqueline with a confrontational gaze. However, upon seeing the look of disappointment on
Jacqueline’s face, her heart softened, and her tone eased as she said, “Ms. Balford, I am Emrys‘ sister. You may not have met
me before, but that jerk has mentioned you to me.”
Jacqueline’s personality had always been considered rather haughty. At least within Jazona, there hadn’t been a single bachelor
who could sway her heart.
However, everything changed after she got to know Emrys.
Even the proudest individuals, in front of those they cherish, would become mindful of their demeanor, even to the point of
growing increasingly submissive.
This was exactly the case with Jacqueline.
Therefore, upon seeing Emrys sheltering a mistress in his place, her first reaction was neither anger
nor resentment.

It was a bittersweet sense of disappointment.
No wonder, despite my proactive approach, Emrys remains indifferent. It turns out that I am neither good enough nor worthy of
him.
With so many beautiful women around Emrys, Jacqueline couldn’t see how she could compete with them.
Upon seeing her desolation, the hostility that Yelena had harbored instantly vanished. She couldn’t help but recall her own
encounters with Emrys. Despite the ample opportunities, Emrys had remained as impassive as a block of wood.
Indeed, his self–restraint is unmatched!
Yelena said empathetically. “Ms. Balford, please don’t be upset. I have already dealt with this jerk on your behalf. Furthermore, I
support your involvement with him.”
“What?” Both of them exclaimed in surprise, their eyes widening simultaneously.
Wait, something doesn’t seem right.
Emrys asked, surprised, “Lena, are you being serious?”
“Hmph, absolutely!” Yelena blinked her captivating eyes and continued, “Besides, there are already seven. Adding one more
shouldn’t be a big deal.”
