Taylor led Jenna into Sean's office. The assistant sat on the sofa and invited Jenna to sit down, "Let's sit down first, would you like some coffee?"

Jenna shook her head, too shocked by the suddenness of it all.

"Mr. Sean is in Italy on urgent business," Taylor shifted his position to make him seat more comfortable, "I should have told you earlier, but Mr. Sean stopped me."

"About what?" Jenna's heart skipped a beat.

"You need to know that Mr. Sean never actually destroyed your father's company, let alone bankrupted it." Taylor grew more serious than ever. "You may not believe me, but you can look up information anywhere. What Mr. Sean did was not bankrupt the company, but he helped companies that were on the verge of bankruptcy and brought them back to life. Many of the companies he took over became many times more advanced because of Mr. Sean's skills."

Jenna frowned, "But my father's company was fine before he made the deal with Sean, we didn't go bankrupt at all!" Jenna thoug

  • Captured By A Ruthless Billionaire   Chapter 23. Don't Use Lip Gloss

    After hearing what Taylor said, Jenna suddenly realized that the comforts she had, such as the house her father had been able to get at a very low price, even her father's income so far, which was quite high even though he was not working, had all been obtained from Sean?"We even knew that you were planning to take revenge for the death of your parents," Taylor's face softened at the sight of Jenna's blush, then she looked at Jenna regretfully, "Your parents' death surprised us as well, Jenna. Believe me, Mr. Sean was shocked as well. He was notoriously cruel and evil, but he certainly never intended to hurt the weak. He was trying to help your father." Taylor stressed her words, "None of what happened was Mr. Sean's fault."Jenna felt ashamed. If Taylor's words were true...and they seemed to be. Then she should be ashamed. All her anger and all her resentment based on her own perception had been wrong all along. And Sean almost never defended himself with all his diatribes, curses

    "It seems like you've said that before, but the fact is you've always been insubordinate," Sean said casually."No, I'm not going to argue with you anymore!" Jenna was very worried that Sean's guest suddenly stood at the door and saw her, "Can I go now?""No," Sean said, not caring.Jenna was about to say something when Sean's secretary called. "Sir, Miss Charlotte has arrived."Jenna was surprised and looked at the door.Sean told his secretary, "Let her in!" After hanging up, he pointed to the side and said, "That is the dressing room!"Apparently there was a special room where several of Sean's suits and shirts were kept, just in case he needed a change of clothes.The doorknob turned and Jenna ran into the dressing room.Charlotte entered with a smile on her face, but saw the back of a woman running towards a special room there, then her smile froze for three seconds before she regained her composure and smiled at Sean. "Mr. Sean...""Just call me Sean." Sean stood up and shook th

    "Hello, Charlotte." Sean sounded so friendly on the phone.Jenna stared at him for a while, then as she started to undo her pajamas, Sean's eyes fell on her breasts."Thanks for lunch, I didn't think you were so nice." Charlotte sounded shy on the phone."Of course. I'm glad you had a good time with me, next time we meet again." Sean replied. A bright smile was clearly visible on his face, as if he had a lot of fun teasing Charlotte.The man extended his hand to Jenna and pulled her into the bathtub.Jenna hesitantly stepped in, wondering how Sean could be talking to his girlfriend while asking her to get naked and into his tub.Sitting in the tub, Jenna broke through the bubbles like a small mountain rising from the sea. She still looked very stiff as she sat on Sean's lap with her back to him. Sean moved a hand to touch Jenna's stomach and pulled her closer, letting her lean against him as he continued to talk to Charlotte, laughing."Tomorrow I'll pick you up for dinner," Sean sai

    Since the first day of college, Jenna and Esther have become quite close. Although Esther was the type of girl who was always cold, she was quite nice to Jenna.After class, Jenna left the campus and saw Sean's car among a group of other private cars. On this campus, no one knew the real situation, so Jenna didn't have to worry about anyone getting suspicious and could just walk right up to him. She opened the car door and saw Sean, then got in without saying anything.Sean looked up from his iPad, reached out and touched her face, then said with a smile: "How's college going?""Fine," Jenna replied briefly."Good. Then I'm going to buy you a new dress."Jenna said hesitantly, "No, that's not necessary..."Sean looked at her and asked, "Don't you like it?""It's not that!" Jenna fell silent. Sean continued to buy her clothes and jewelry as if Jenna was really his mistress! She didn't like being treated that way! "Well, it's up to you." She stared out of the window with lifeless eyes

    After dinner, Esther took a suitcase of her clothes and belongings to Sean's house, where she called her mother. "Mom, I'm going to live with Sean!" she said in front of Sean and Jenna."Why do you want to live there all of a sudden?" her mother asked in surprise.Sean gave her a warning look and Esther said, "My brother seems too lonely to live alone. He can't even eat well. I have to take care of him!""Okay." Veronica thought for a moment, then had a good idea. "If you see any women approaching him, don't forget to tell me.""Why would I tell you?" Esther asked, although she knew the answer."I don't want him looking for some random woman! You don't want some random woman to be your sister-in-law either, right?""That's right." Esther hung up the phone and said to Sean, "I'm staying here from now until she leaves!" She pointed at Jenna.Jenna looked down and ate quietly, completely ignoring her. "I hired a tutor to teach you manners. Is that how you learned them?" Sean said annoye

    After the issue of Jenna replacing her in first place in class, Esther somehow went soft on her the next day.That night, after talking to Esther, Sean went back to Jenna's room and they had sex as usual, and the next day he didn't come home for a few days.Jenna never asked him about it, but she thought it was likely that Sean had a girlfriend and was spending more time at her house. Maybe it was Charlotte.Today was Esther's birthday and she asked Jenna to come. She even threatened that if Jenna didn't attend her birthday party, she would bully her even more in the future.Just then, the car pulled up in the Anderson family's backyard. Jenna nervously held the gifts and invitation cards as cold sweat broke out on her forehead."Miss, we're here." Sarah said.Jenna took a deep breath and slowly opened the car door. The first thing that came into view was her long, shapely legs in Salem-colored high heels that matched the dress that clung to her slender body.She stood gracefully in t

    "Sean, we shouldn't do this here," Jenna said, looking so scared and feeling that Sean was being too reckless."No one will come and there's no CCTV here," Sean replied, not planning to back down. His hand paused on the elastic of her panties, then managed to slip them down her legs, which he then tossed somewhere.Jenna closed her eyes nervously, then felt his lips land on hers again, so quickly she was almost speechless. Jenna opened her eyes and looked into Sean's. His eyes said it all. Everything he wanted to do with her."You have no idea how much I've missed all this," Sean said as he wrapped his arms around Jenna's neck and kissed her again, making her literally melt in his arms.His hands moved up and down Jenna's sides while his nose caressed her neck very gently.One hand now moved to the nape of Jenna's neck and he pulled her lips back to his mouth. This time they kissed hotter, heating up like a blazing fire, his tongue wrapping around her fiercely and his body embracing

    As Sean helped her down from the table, Jenna's legs felt very weak and she almost fell over. He quickly picked her up, walked to the door, picked up the key Esther had thrown through the crack under the door, opened it, looked around to make sure no one was there, then carried her up to the third floor and into guest room.As he entered the bathroom, he set her down and quickly took off her dress.Jenna stopped him. "What are you doing?" She thought he was going to fuck her again."Be nice, take off your clothes so you don't get your dress wet." After he took off her clothes he asked, "Do I have to help you or will you do it yourself?""Myself!" said Jenna hastily.He nodded, looked at her, then left the bathroom carrying her dress. Throwing her dreas on the bed, Sean picked up his phone and called someone. "Come to the guest room for a moment."A few minutes later there was a knock at the door. After three knocks, someone opened the door and entered. It was Esther.Esther looked an

    Black. Sean actually hated funerals because there were so many sad and hurt people, and here he was wearing black to the funeral of the person he loved the most. He still couldn't believe that Jenna was gone. Even though everyone in front of him was shouting 'she's dead', he still couldn't believe it, at least not in his heart. But her wrecked car, her burned body, the necklace around her neck that belonged to her mother, and then the ring on her index finger that she always wore seemed to give up hope that it wasn't really Jenna. So now they decided to bury her body next to her mother and father's grave, in the place she wanted. At that moment, Sean looked at himself in the mirror. There was a man in a black satin shirt, black pants and black shoes. His eyes were red and expressionless, and he had a newly grown beard. He couldn't recognize this man. This wasn't him, certainly not like him. She glanced at the row of ties lying carelessly in the corner of her closet. He told L

  • Captured By A Ruthless Billionaire   Chapter 99. Accident

    Sean stood in front of the window in his office and stared at his reflection in the glass staring back at him, confusion and uncertainty clouding his vision. He pulled his coat closer to his body and sighed heavily. He had no idea what he was doing or what was happening to him. He woke up this morning with a severe headache, and when it subsided, he looked around and frowned. He had a vague memory of what happened last night, but he didn't know if last night was a dream or not, but it definitely felt more than real. Even if it was a dream, he could tell that it was the scariest dream he had ever had. Even though there was only Jenna in his mind, last night he dreamed of himself kissing Alexa, then Aiden's car pulling into the gate and then driving away. Was Jenna there? Did she see him kiss Alexa? He vaguely remembered Alexa suddenly kissing him, but he let her. He hoped it wasn't real, mostly because he was afraid. Afraid that Jenna would be angry. She would think, what kind

    Do you know the feeling when a bucket of water with lots of ice cubes in it is dumped on your head without warning and you want to scream, but your breath gets caught in your throat, restricting your vocal cords as the cold creeps into your bones? Yeah, that's what Jenna's feeling right now. No one was going to dump a bucket of ice on her head, but right now it would be much better than watching the events unfold in front of her. All of her previous resolve had simply vanished and probably burned up with the ashes blowing away in the wind. Sean and Alexa were standing in the doorway, or should she say they were kissing. Noticing the arrival of Aiden's car, they froze in place without blinking, and Jenna forcibly shifted her gaze from them to Aiden, who sat next to her, staring ahead with a sullen expression. "Are you going to watch them do it here or are you going to drive?" Jenna asked him with calm in her voice. Aiden nodded without looking at her and drove back and out the g

    Jenna realized that even though she was wearing high heels, the fact was that Aiden was still taller than her. Jenna put both hands on his shoulders and they swayed to the beat of the music. Feeling a sharp look on her back, Jenna looked back and her eyes met Sean's as he stared intently at Aiden's arms wrapped around her waist. His grip tightened around Alexa's waist until she winced in pain. His eyes flicked back to Alexa and apologized for the pain he had caused. Jenna wondered if he would apologize to her for all the pain he had caused her? He used to be so abusive. He had even been rough with her in bed the last time they had made love. And look, he couldn't even stand to see Alexa in a little pain. Jenna looked back forward to meet Aiden's amused eyes. "What's so funny?" she asked as she turned her around and Aiden pulled her closer. "I was just wondering what Sean was doing," Aiden chuckled. "Doing what?" asked Jenna confused. "He's obviously not interested in Al

    The car pulls up and like any other party, the paparazzi are the first to greet them with their camera lights flashing in full view. Jenna hides behind Sean and uses him as a shield to get her eyes used to the light. When she finally gets used to the light, she follows Sean and Aiden out of the car and runs toward the stairs. Jenna doesn't like posing for the camera, but Aiden disagrees as he takes her arm and makes her smile in front of several cameras. Jenna frowns at their intertwined hands, then Sean does something unexpected. He grabs her hand and pulls her to his side, away from Aiden and toward the large double doors that await their arrival. Jenna wanted to say that he shouldn't act like that in public, but she knew better than that what Sean was like. This man never liked to have his property touched by others, even if he was now too close to Alexa. Instead of arguing with him, however, Jenna let him drag her along. Soon they reached the large golden double doors, wh

    The sun kissed her face warmly, as if to say, "Rise and shine." Lazily, Jenna turned over and pulled the blanket over her head. But suddenly she remembered that today was Saturday, the day of the charity event. She woke up with a start. Her brown hair was loose in front of her face. She didn't even want to look at it, because she already knew the condition of her hair, as if it had just been hit by a storm. She walked to the dressing table and tied her messy hair into a ponytail, then went to the bathroom to do her daily routine. "Ah! You're awake. Your dress will be here in a few hours. Get some rest and be at the venue by 6," Aiden said, starting to walk out of her room. "Is everything ready?" Jenna mumbled in front of her toothbrush, which was still covered in toothpaste. She didn't understand half of what Aiden said, but she seemed to understand. Don't ask how. "See for yourself," Aiden yelled and ran out before Jenna could ask or say anything. Jenna quickly did what she

    "Seriously, Casey? I ask you to do one thing. One thing, and you can't get it done in time?" Jenna yelled angrily as she paced the kitchen, running a hand through her brown hair in frustration. "I'm sorry, Ma'am," she said in a shaky voice. "Tomorrow is the charity event, now what am I supposed to serve them?!" Jenna shouted again and hung up angrily. She was completely out of breath. She rarely got angry, and right now she was angry, stressed, and worried. It wasn't a good combination. How could things be so messy? Everything had been organized and Jenna should have been able to relax while waiting for the day of the event to arrive. But suddenly the caterer canceled the contract. Annoying laughter could be heard in the kitchen where Jenna was pacing angrily. She turned her head to the side and glared at Aiden, who was eating the tuna sandwich Lily had prepared for him. The man threw up his hands in surrender, but continued to laugh at her condition. After calming down, Je

    Sean introduced Jenna to Aiden and before Sean could say who she was, Jenna interrupted. "Secretary, Jenna," Jenna greeted him and reached out to shake his hand. Aiden stood up and took Jenna's hand and kissed it, which surprised Jenna a little. "You're beautiful," he commented. "Thank you, kind sir," Jenna replied. Aiden burst out laughing and looked at her. He looked as if he was searching for something. Suddenly, a realization dawned in his eyes. "I think I've seen you before," he exclaimed. "That was the worst line of seduction ever," Sean grumbled. Jenna winced at his attitude. "No, really. We've met in the elevator before," Aiden said. Jenna gave him a puzzled look. "A few days ago at the mall. Remember the old lady who said we were perfect for each other just because we wore matching clothes?" he said, and then everything became clear. "Oh, yeah!" Jenna exclaimed when it hit her. Jenna was taking her two children to a restaurant for lunch, and the three of them wer

    It's been a month since their trip to Miami and the accident. However, they had put it behind them. Drake and Esther's relationship was still in a complicated phase, but Sean and Alexa's didn't seem to be the same. From what Jenna had heard, they had a partnership in one of Sean's businesses and they spent many days together. As for Jenna, she worked every day, had the kids in the afternoon, and spent her evenings watching Netflix and eating chocolate ice cream."Your breakfast is almost cold," Lily's voice snapped Jenna out of her reverie. Jenna took one last look at herself in the mirror and hurried downstairs to settle her stomach.She decided to wear something different today. She pulled on a pair of tight black jeans and a white button-down shirt, then tucked them into the shirt and secured them with a thin white belt. She folded her sleeves up to her elbows, smoothed her hair, and wore black high heels."You look beautiful," Lily commented."Thank you." Jenna leaned over and m
