Trial Of Love Chapter 166 - Her Plan Would Actually Work

The next day at Imperial Garden Plaza

Elizabeth just came back from the meeting with the upcoming movie, when Jackie came running out of the door to greet her. "Babes, I miss you…"

Elizabeth looked at the Jackie who was squeezing her to death, she wonders what she wants from her?

"What do you want?"

Jackie pushed herself away from Elizabeth, angered by what she just heard and replied. "My gosh Elizabeth Knightley, I am not that type of person who wants something from you. Plus…"

Elizabeth frowned and stared coldly at the girl, "Come on, spit it out…"

Jackie went and embrace the girl again as she handed a piece of paper to her. "Here..."

Elizabeth grabs the piece of paper and started reading it, it was an image of a private villa, its location and other detail information. "You want to go to the beach..."

Jackie nodded innocently hoping the girl would agree.

"Sure, no problem… I'm free for a while to spend time with you and everyone." Elizabeth stated, as she folded the paper away and returned it to the girl.

Jackie said nothing and kept to herself. She did not expect her plan would actually work, she just hopes she won't break her bones when she finds out.

"Let's go shopping then for some swimsuit."

Elizabeth could not help it but smile, she really does not understand why they needed to go shopping when she probably has hundreds of swimsuit and clothes that she has not worn yet.

"Fine, I'll get the car ready."

Fashion Island

Jackie's eyes expanded as she gazed around at the extravagant well-established mall. "Liz, doesn't your dad owns this mall."

Elizabeth ponders of a moment and then nodded, "Yeah, the mall went bankrupt 5 years ago and my dad brought it. Now, it's back on track and is even making almost the same income as Lotus Mall Complex. Despite its size and the shop inside aren't that high cla.s.s. Fashion Island can really catch up with Lotus Mall Complex since it's friendly to everyone. Unlike Lotus Mall Complex, which is a luxury type of mall."

Jackie suddenly became curious about something. "Your Knightley family does own a lot of business in China then? What about your Zhao family?"

Elizabeth contemplates for a moment in how she should explain things to Jackie since they've never talked about such topics before. "The Knightley family does have more investment projects than the Zhao since they are mainly in politics and military. However, my late grandmother's family was into business too, but more in education and music. From what I know the Zhao family started establishing a university, a shooting range and a few musical halls since then."

"Ah… That Grand Royal Theater right?" Jackie answered.

Elizabeth nodded amazed that the girl knew about it. "Yup, my grandmother was an amazing pianist and plays the Chinese zither as well. Not only that, her mother and grandmother before too were musicians. The theater here in China is the oldest, but they have a few around the world as well."

"Have you perform on them then?" Jackie curiously asked.

Elizabeth thought for a bite recalling if she has indeed performed on any of the music halls they own. "I have when I was young. I used to play the piano with my mother while she played with my grandmother's zither but that was in j.a.pan."

Jackie was quite impressed with Elizabeth's family background. Her brother has told her things about her and her family, but not much can be said.

They've been friends for 15 years, yet Elizabeth was still a mystery for her. She once asked someone to investigate her, but nothing could be found, nor does any of their subordinates will sell them out not even for millions of dollars.

Jackie found it annoying but she not jealous of her, she just felt sorry that she gets easily hurt by others for they do not know who she is. To be frank, her family is not the top family in the world, but for Jackie Elizabeth's family is just too mysterious to not be the top family. They hold so many secrets that even people like her does not know.

Elizabeth grabs Jackie's arms as she noticed a familiar shop around the corner. "Jackie, come let's check this shop."

Jackie finally snaps back to her sense and looked at the innocent girl beside her, she really cares so much for her and worries a lot for her. "Alright…"

Whilst the two continued to shop around the mall, they were able to enjoy their time since Elizabeth wore a black face mask as most celebrities do in order to blend in with the crowd.

Jackie notice Elizabeth was in deep thought as she mentioned something to her. Jackie just smiled as she realized that Elizabeth was agreeing to everything she was saying without her even reacting to them.

"Jackie, which dress would you like?" Elizabeth showed the two dressed to her.

Jackie was startled as she forced a smile to hide her worries. "Up to you babes."

Elizabeth wondered why Jackie was acting strange all of a sudden. Since they were having so much fun, she didn't bother and asked about it.

After they went shopping, they roamed around the city for a quiet place to relax.

"Liz, when will you be working on your next movie?" Jackie asked whilst sipping on her drink.

Elizabeth drank her drink first to replenish thirst. "After summer, I want to have a break and prepare for school."

"Your so lucky to be able to do your law degree[1] already." Jackie mop as she felt hopeless and depressed.

Elizabeth patted the girl in the head to comfort her. "It's your fault for not listening to me."

"I know, but it's fine... I just have to suffer for a few more months then I'll be able to catch up with you." Jackie cheered herself up.

Elizabeth chuckled, "That's more like it. Anyways, big brothers are there to help you. Your brothers are a world-cla.s.s lawyer what more can you ask for."

Jackie fell into darkness again from what Elizabeth mention. The fact her brothers are world-cla.s.s lawyers just put a lot of pressure on her. Even though her brothers aren't pushing her to be like them, she just can't see herself not being next to them.

The fact world-cla.s.s lawyers are the most respectable people in the legal world. They hold great authority when it comes to legal matters. But being one is not that easy, one must take extreme examination.
