Jessica had all the food in small dishes and instructed the house staff on kitchen duty to only set the table when Xavier gets back. She went upstairs and freshened up. She wore something casual and just moisturized her skin and put on some lip balm to avoid breaking her lips. She came back downstairs and went to the main sitting room. Ever since she got to the house she had barely watched anything on television. She glanced at the clock on the wall and it was almost seven o'clock. Dinner was meant to at least be eaten by then so they don't have a lot to battle with in terms of digestion. Although Xavier did not call to say he would be late Jessica thought as much as he had been late ever since she started living there. She sat on one of the sofas that would give her a good look at the television and enough vision point to see who passes by the corridor. The thought of owning her company made her yearn to see him. She put on the television and put it on one of the soap opera chann

They sat by the table and began to eat. To Xavier's surprise, the meal that Jessica prepared was very good. It was good enough to be rated top tier. Maybe helping her set up a restaurant would be a good idea. "You did a fine job," Xavier said complimenting her. Jessica felt a high degree of elation upon hearing that Xavier liked it and felt she did well. She knew it was a good sign that opening the restaurant would go in her favor. She would normally not collect money from strangers. She considered Xavier no more than a stranger. Since she had known him she had barely had a mature and sincere conversation with him therefore she can't consider him a friend. He was a stranger. Why would this stranger consider opening a restaurant for her? She wanted to ask out loud so desperately but she kept her numerous questions to herself. "I am glad it's to your liking" Jessica answered instead. If it came down to accepting the money and she felt uncomfortable she could ask him to act as an i

Xavier's expression changed immediately. He was not happy with the way Jessica had put the statement but he did not want to make an issue out of it. "So about the business" Jessica began. She could see the displeasure and discontent on his face but she refused to allow herself to give up on her dreams because of a silly mistake. "Go on," Xavier said encouraging her. He did not want to blame her for the way she spoke, if anything she was speaking only truths because they would go separate ways as soon as it is a year and she would be ostracised by society. He should be more understanding even though her words were wrong she was still right. He would remain the eye candy in the eyes of the public. "So I was thinking that would be a better idea if you invest in my business instead of giving me the money out rightly," Jessica said. Xavier pondered on her words. She was right. Although he was greatly uninterested in what the public said about him, he needs to be careful with what th

The words of Xavier indicated that he would be eating the meals she prepared from now on. It felt like running the ten-kilometer race and passing by the first kilometer. It seemed small and insignificant because she still had a long way to go before they both became comfortable enough to address each other as friends but she felt elated and happy at least now it showed he that he trusted her. "And dinner too?" Jessica asked. If she made progress she could as well push her lick and try it. "I usually get back very late so I doubt we can have dinner together. I have a lot of work on my plate" Xavier answered in a calm tone. "Oh it's no worries," Jessica said smiling. It was really a breakthrough he decided to have breakfast every day. The rest of dinner was silent and comfortable. Since Jessica had been able to get to making money from his investment she left it at that. She had all she needed at this point. Somehow as she sat her mind drifted to her aunt who had non-stop called h

"Mr. Delgado, I don't think the terms you listed would be in your favor," Mr. Marcus said. He had been the family lawyer. He was the son of the owner of Gates and Sons law firm at the moment and was in charge of the Delgado legal business. Anyone could say that the Gates and Sons law firm is what it is today because of the Delgado family and other influential wealthy people of Chiachester City. "Just put it that way" Xavier responded. He saw right through Jessica that she was neither interested nor moved by his money. He had tried to flaunt it all over her face since day one. He gave her an unlimited card to use for shopping but she only used barely two hundred bucks and she started paying back by trying to send the money to his phone. He had rejected each attempt. He clearly thought that since they were going to be divorced in a year's time she would ask for compensation she did not instead she asked for investment which she would pay back. He guessed all young women of the pre

Since Jessica was excited to be sharing her meals with others her body clock made her stand up by five am. She was going to prepare a full sore as breakfast for her husband today. Although their circumstances were not normal Jessica was going to do her best to make lemonade out of unripe lemons that life had thrown her direction. The house staff was shocked to see her come out to prepare breakfast. "Good morning Roselle" Jessica greeted the middle-aged woman. Roselle had been all stern and annoying on Jessica about the way they address themselves. She insisted that Jessica called her on a first-name basis which Jessica was quite uncomfortable with and she still went ahead to address her as a young lady. If only this woman knew that she and Xavier were planning to sign a contract that would make them go separate ways today. "Good morning young lady, can I help you with something?" Roselle asked when she saw Jessica in the kitchen. Roselle was still very skeptical about the sudden

Roselle felt a little closer to Jessica. She promised herself that if Jessica could show care for the men of the Delgado family then she would support her wholeheartedly. Jessica was fast and efficient in the kitchen and for the first time since Roselle's eyes were not covered by prejudice, she could see what a darling of a person she was. Soon Jessica was done cooking the breakfast, she made extra for Roselle to have to thank her for the help. Roselle had a little of the meal left for her and she was content with the outcome. Roselle never tasted what the young master's mother's pancakes tasted like but she could say that Jessica made a good feast. Jessica glanced at the walk clock on her way out of the kitchen and noticed it was almost eight am. She was going to have her birth and then come back down to wait for Xavier so they could have breakfast before the signing of their contract. Jessica pushed the door knob and entered the room. She noticed an empty bed and heard the showe

Jessica wanted to take a warm shower but resorted to a cold shower to wake herself up from the dreams she was having. Was she just fawning over the body of Xavier? She thought she would never get over Burke. As she thought about Burke her chest tighten. Her mind was flooded with fond memories between her and her high school sweetheart. Her mind traveled to the day of the wedding which was barely two weeks ago. How he dumped her right before they could tie themselves in holy matrimony. She remembers how she waited for hours at the front of the courthouse before she called Burke to confirm where he was. He then proceeded to call off the wedding and even the relationship. She told herself that she would have understood if he developed cold feet but what he did made no sense to her. He admitted his infidelity to her and showed no remorse. "Jessica, are you almost done? I would be late for work" Xavier's voice pulled Jessica out of her train of thought. "Oh yes I am done," Jessica sa
