Chapter 414: Bluffing Him
Jesse Jennings shouldn’t have known Thea Shaw.
At least, on the day Thea Shaw was telling fortunes, he was hiding in secret and didn’t show up, so Thea Shaw shouldn’t have known him.
The police also promised not to disclose his information as the informant.
How did Thea Shaw come to find him?
Jesse Jennings felt a bit uneasy, but he quickly thought that since he was Regina Shelby’s manager, maybe the other party thought Regina Shelby had told her manager some things.
Anyway, it’s clear they’ve found out that he leaked the information.
Honestly, he was a bit intimidated by these people from The World of Geomancy.
The last time, Thea Shaw gave Regina Shelby and Mr. Moody almost the same answer, which at least proved that she had some skills.
Offending such a mysterious figure wouldn’t be a good idea.
With this in mind, Jesse Jennings waved his hand, "Let her in."
Actually, many people wanted to see Jesse Jennings today, but he refused them all by claiming he was too sad, as many people knew Regina Shelby was still his girlfriend.
When Thea Shaw came in, Jesse Jennings experienced a moment of confusion.
This girl was quite beautiful, possessing a truly stunning presence.
As the assistant described, she was ethereal.
When she walked in, she lit up the slightly dim office with her presence.
A girl like her entering the entertainment industry would indeed be a real storm of beauty.
That day, he didn’t dare to show his face and didn’t see the girl’s face directly. Now, looking at her, Jesse Jennings felt a bit emotional.
If she weren’t a fortune-teller, at first glance, Jesse Jennings would think of every possible way to sign her.
When Thea Shaw came in, she glanced around slightly, her smile was bright and amiable: "Hello, Mr. Jennings."
Jesse Jennings knew who she was, but he had to pretend not to know her.
And now, his expression seemed somewhat disheartened: "Hello, may I ask who you are..."
"If Mr. Jennings doesn’t know me and yet lets me in just like that, you must be really kind-hearted."
Thea Shaw wasn’t one to beat around the bush, and her words made Jesse Jennings’ smile freeze slightly.
Thea Shaw spoke directly, and her straightforwardness made Jesse Jennings quite uneasy: "I heard the news of Miss Shelby’s passing this morning. I’m very sorry. Just a few days ago, when I did a reading for her, she looked so vibrant."
Thea Shaw’s clear gaze focused on Jesse Jennings: "Miss Shelby told me she doesn’t trust many people, just you, Mr. Jennings. It’s not surprising that you know about her seeking a reading from me, but what puzzles me is, why would you go out of your way to tell the police about it? Making them suspect me?"
Not that it’s impossible—if Regina Shelby openly sought a reading from Thea Shaw, then her being investigated would be normal.
The crucial point is, no one knew about this; Jesse Jennings deliberately leaked it.
What could he be hiding?
Jesse Jennings’ lips twitched. He thought he had spoken subtly enough, but who knew he’d have to deal with someone like Thea Shaw, who came right out with it.
He was there that day, but Regina Shelby never mentioned him!
Thea Shaw was clearly trying to trap Jesse Jennings.
The issue now is that it doesn’t matter whether he admits it or not.
But Jesse Jennings, having been in the industry for years, managed a smile and flatly denied it: "I’m sorry, miss, I don’t know what you’re talking about. I have no idea about any fortune-telling matter."
Thea Shaw didn’t dwell on the statement; she suddenly said, "Mr. Moody said you told him."
"Impossible..."
As soon as these three words came out, Jesse Jennings’ pupils contracted.
Thea Shaw said with a smile, "So you do know Mr. Moody."
