Chapter 285:
“Jennie, are you off duty?” Richard asked gently as he approached her.
Brinley stood beside him.
“Why are you guys here?” Jenessa asked, her voice tinged with surprise.
Raising his eyebrows, Richard responded, “Have you forgotten? Didn’t we agree to celebrate together today p>
That’s when Jenessa remembered that they were supposed to celebrate her divorce.
The celebration had only been delayed because Richard’s injury had not fully healed.
Brinley chuckled and teased, “It seems like you’ve been too caught up with work to remember to celebrate p>
Indeed, Jenessa had forgotten due to her hectic schedule. If it weren’t for Brinley and Richard’s thoughtful visit, she likely would have stayed late at work today.
She felt deeply touched. Neither her biological parents nor her once-beloved husband Ryan had ever shown her true care.
In this world, it seemed only Brinley and Richard truly treated her like family, always keeping her in their thoughts.
“I still have some work to finish up. Why don’t you go ahead, and I’ll join you after I’m done?” Jenessa suggested softly.
Richard looked like he was about to suggest they stay and wait, but Brinley quickly agreed, “Okay p>
Brinley whispered to Richard, “Let’s go ahead and set things up. We can surprise her p>
Richard nodded, and they left together.

“Sloane, can you help me ask for his signature? I really admire him p>
“Me too! Please, Sloane p>
Amused by their enthusiasm, Jenessa curiously asked, “Why didn’t you go over and ask for a photo with him earlier? You might have gotten one p>
Hearing this, the crowd all shook their heads.
“I don’t think so p>
“Richard is too aloof and unapproachable. We really didn’t dare approach him p>
“I agree. Sloane, please get his signature for us p>
Frowning, Jenessa was surprised that Richard was perceived so differently by others.
“He is not like that. He’s actually a good and gentle man,” she said, almost instinctively defending him.
“Maybe it’s because you are friends. However, within the fashion industry, he is notoriously unapproachable p>
