Jessica's POV The atmosphere in the office was tense as I watched Frank and Isabella engage in their sordid display. I calmly took out the proposal letter with Bright Star from my bag and waved it in the air. With a smile, I said, "What about this proposal letter with Bright Star? They plan to feature our jewelry during the Christmas season." Frank and Isabella looked at the proposal letter in my hand, their faces turning extremely ugly in an instant. Their expressions were filled with disbelief. Everyone from the team gathered around, and in no time, the office was buzzing with discussions. "Bright Star? That's the largest shopping center currently, with no less than a hundred shopping buildings in Los Angeles!" one colleague exclaimed. Another colleague praised generously, "Wow, Jessica, you are really amazing!" Some expressed doubt in a low voice, "This can't be fake, right? She's only been here for a short time. How could she achieve this?" Lillian spoke up,

Jessica's POV Plagiarism? I deliberately frowned at Isabella, "What nonsense are you talking about?" I said this, but in my heart, I felt a sense of relief, as if the sword of Damocles hanging above my head had finally fallen. I had always thought Isabella and her crew would tamper with the production line or the promotional video. I didn't expect them to be waiting for me here. "Your pretense is useless now. Everyone should check X," Isabella said with a gloating tone. I opened my computer and found that there was already a trending topic on X, #AlphaCompanyChristmasCollectionPlagiarism. Upon checking, it was a personal designer named Terry who claimed that I had previously wanted to collaborate with him, but the collaboration didn't work out. Now he found that our newly launched Christmas Love Song had used his design ideas. He also attached an alleged sketch of his creative ideas. The entire office instantly erupted like a bomb had gone off, completely breakin

Zander's POV In the Harrison Group, the CEO's office. I was not working at my desk as usual. At that moment, I was restless, pacing back and forth in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, my hands clenching and relaxing unconsciously. Looking at the endless stream of cars outside the window, I couldn't calm my heart. I rarely have such restless moments. Jessica's situation was like a huge rock pressing on my heart, preventing me from focusing on work. I'm not sure about her current situation. I don't know if she will be hurt by this frame-up? I know her talent and efforts well and never believed she would do something like plagiarism. At that moment, my phone rang. I pressed answer immediately, but Serena's voice came from the other end. "Mr. Harrison, I... I feel rested now. Can I come back to work?" Serena said in a pleasing tone. "There's no rush, take some more time to rest," I said, hanging up without waiting for Serena to respond. She chose the wro

Jessica's POV Alvin was already prepared, and the company's HR and security personnel quickly arrived at the office. Compared to Frank's and Isabella's dejected faces, Lillian seemed a bit reluctant. Before leaving, she looked at me with red eyes and said, "I'm sorry, Jessica, I really had no choice." I looked at her and said, "If you had told me you were forced before you stood up and lied to defame me, I would consider believing you, but now..." "I really wanted to tell you, but I didn't dare..." Lillian said anxiously, then she glanced at Frank beside her and seemed a bit scared as she said, "Moreover, I have helped you a lot." "To be frank, that's your job..." Before I could finish my sentence, the security personnel behind her pushed Lillian's shoulder. She bit her lip and glared at me as she left. "Come to my office," Alvin said, leading the way out of the office. I followed Alvin to his office. Along the way, my mood was complicated yet resolute. I alrea

Jessica's POV The warm water stream felt like Zander's hands, making me excited and nostalgic. As I regained my senses slightly, the bathtub was filled with hot water, and I lay down in it. The warm water enveloped my entire body. My spirit began to relax, and my memories started to scatter. For some reason, I thought about my first time with Zander. He removed the coat off my body, and I laid down on the soft, comfortable bed. Taking a deep breath, I parted my legs open. He came down and sat between my legs. His fingertips traced down the bare flesh of my legs as I quivered out of fear. His fingers curled around the edges of my underwear as he hovered his masculine body over mine. I felt myself shrinking underneath him. His wicked glare burned through me as the underwear came off. His finger ran through my entrance. I winced and wondered what he was doing to me. A shiver of anticipation ran through my mind as he moved down. Fire raced through my body as Z

Jessica's POV Bullshit! Did he really think I'd buy such a lame excuse? I'd heard from Johnny that Downey had gotten a beating for harassing a female bartender before. Given his lousy behavior, there was no doubt that this was deliberate. I forgot to ask when their vacation ended and left the door unlocked. "You need to get out of here right now!" I pointed at the bathroom door, my voice dripping with anger. Downey shifted his weight, taking a slow half-step back. His dawdling was clearly an act. He had no intention of leaving so easily. His disgusting gaze swept over me, "Hey, are you feeling unwell? You look flushed. How about I help you out?" As he spoke, he inched closer with that hand I despised. Seeing his approaching arm, I hurled the cup in my hand at him and shouted, "Don't you dare touch me!" He took two steps back, still mumbling, "Don't get so excited. It's a misunderstanding. I really didn't mean it. I always stop by your room when I'm back, didn't

Four days ago. Zander's POV With the Alpha's announcement and the shift in public sentiment online, the malicious reporting against Jessica's designs finally came to an end. I knew in my heart that Alvin valued her highly, and she shouldn't face any more significant troubles. Yet, not being able to see her, I was still deeply worried. I had to admit it to myself-I missed her so much. Unable to focus on work all day, I drove back to our villa. As I walked through the door, I realized every corner was filled with our memories. Those beautiful moments spent with her kept surfacing in my mind, causing my heart to ache even more. I paced back and forth in the room and eventually picked up my phone to call Dwayne. "Hey, Dwayne," I said. My tone was a bit impatient. "Mr. Harrison, what can I do for you?" Dwayne's voice came through the phone. "Get me a new phone and a new number," I said. "No problem. I'm on it right away," Dwayne responded. As my assistant, he kn

Zander's POV Seeing Tawny at Warren's house at that time was, to be honest, quite unexpected. However, the incident from the dinner party was still fresh in my mind, and the subsequent gossip and ridicule I faced had been quite unpleasant. Thus, it was difficult for me to have a good attitude towards Tawny. Tawny looked at me with anticipation, her eyes as if waiting for my response. I took my coffee cup and drained it in one go, showing no intention of talking to her. Her gaze gradually shifted from expectation to grievance, with a hint of loss flickering in her slightly lowered eyes. At that moment, Winnie came out of the kitchen carrying a tray of vibrantly colored macarons. Her eyes swept between Tawny and me, instantly sensing the awkward atmosphere. "These are macarons I just baked. Try some," she said, placing the tray on the table. Then, with a smile, she explained to me, "Tawny's parents have gone on a trip, and I thought the poor girl would be lonely at

Genevieve's POVSunlight streamed through the restaurant windows, casting mottled patches of light and shadow on us. "How about it? Not bad, huh? I checked other people's reviews on Facebook to choose this restaurant," I said triumphantly."Mm, not bad," Jessica glanced around and casually remarked.I sensed that something was off with Jessica. I looked at her curiously and asked, "Jess, what's wrong? You seem distracted today."She just lightly pursed her lips, silent, those closed lips like a tightly shut city gate, locking her thoughts securely inside.I couldn't let her off the hook so easily, so I nudged her arm. "What's going on? I'm worried about you."She lifted her head, looked at me, and then said, "Haven't you seen today's entertainment news?"I quickly took out my phone from my bag, eager to open Twitter, my fingers swiftly scrolling on the screen. Soon, the trending topic about Harrison Group's chairman, Zander, allegedly having a new lover caught my eye.My eyes widened

Zander's POVA strange panic gripped me as my intense kisses ignited a desire within me. I longed for Jessica, yearned to possess her. Unlike the last time, this time my heart was filled with a desire to destroy. The strange tingling sensation gripped my body once again as I began to get rougher. The soft, gentle kisses turned hard and rough. Warmth spread through me as I pressed my chest against hers. The thundering heartbeats set a new life in me."Wait," a small, breathless whisper escaped her lips as she tried to stop me, but there was no going back now. I pulled away for a moment and then stared down at her bare breasts exposed under my wicked grasp. "I said, you can only be mine," I said as I wrapped a hand around her throat and pushed her against the headboard on the sheets. A loud scream escaped from her lips as my tongue dipped between her legs. Clearly, the sudden excitement and pleasure almost sent her over the edge. Her hips thrusted in a steady rhythm against my mouth. I

Jessica's POVI looked at his back, clad in a tailored suit and his meticulously styled hair. He was a man of precision, yet sometimes his extremes were terrifying. I looked at him and said, "We're divorced. I don't have the duty to play the loyalty game with you anymore. I'm leaving."However, his cold fingertips, like a snake's tongue, slithered down my cheek, showing no intention of letting me go. During our relationship, he had one rule: no betrayal. But now that we were divorced, his possessiveness had not decreased, but instead had reached a pathological level."Zander, let me go," I said.Zander pressed my body against the cold wall, his smile chilling. "Jessica, if I hold you, will you not be cold?""Zander! Are you insane?"His body was hot, pressed tightly against mine. The atmosphere between us immediately became ambiguous. Zander whispered in my ear, "Jessica, even after the divorce, you can only be my woman.""Let me go. There's nothing between Sigmund and me," I said, tr

The oppressive silence spread like a tidal wave, enveloping everyone.Life after the divorce has been like a long, painful nightmare for me. Jessica vanished so resolutely, traveling and relaxing with Genevieve as if she had forgotten everything we once had. I, on the other hand, was trapped alone in the ruins of our broken relationship, unable to extricate myself.When Tawny invited me to this banquet, I immediately refused. What a ridiculous class reunion! However, when Dwayne reported back to me and mentioned the name of the school, it was Jessica's alma mater.

Jessica's POVHearing Sigmund's words, I instinctively looked at Zander, who was clenching his fists so tightly that his veins were bulging. My heart tightened. I knew Zander all too well. His intense possessiveness was like a raging fire, capable of consuming everything in its path. Sigmund's words had, without a doubt, initiated a silent challenge to Zander in front of everyone.I felt a sense of tension. If I rejected Sigmund at this moment, he would undoubtedly embarrassed in front of everyone, becoming the laughing stock of our social circle. But if I didn't reject him, I was worried about Sigmund becoming a target for Zander.For a moment, I felt caught between a rock and a hard place. Genevieve sensed my predicament and, with a smile, stepped in to help me, "Everyone knows that the best ways to forget an ex are either to let time pass or to start a new relationship. I truly hope that someone as outstanding as you can help heal the deep wounds in her heart sooner."As she spoke,

Jessica's POVI sat at the table, which seemed lively but was actually unbearable to me. The noisy and chaotic atmosphere surged towards me like a torrential tide, threatening to completely submerge me. An inexplicable sense of oppression and irritability spread in my heart like weeds.When the crowd heard the question, they instantly became a swarm of headless flies in disarray. They all clamored at me, "Although this topic is rather inappropriate, we are really curious. Jessica, how did your husband pass away?"I glanced at Zander, whose face clearly showed his displeasure. I snorted in my heart. He and I were divorced. Why should I care about his feelings? Moreover, the painful memories he brought me over the past year were like deep scars etched in my heart. How could I forget them easily?Before I could speak, Genevieve stepped in. "He was good to Jess at first, but as soon as the novelty wore off, he cheated immediately. Some women nowadays have no shame, seeing a wealthy man an

Jessica's POVAfter I spoke, Genevieve looked at me in surprise. A wry smile crept into my heart. On our way to the restroom, she couldn't stop chattering, "Did you see that annoying look on Zander's face? I really wanted to rush over and punch him hard. This man is even worse than those oranges on the streets of Los Angeles that are thrown away after being squeezed dry!"I let out a helpless chuckle."Jess, are you really planning to stay here and watch him canoodle with Tawny? You still have feelings for him in your heart, and in the end, it's you who will be hurt," Genevieve said with concern."Didn't you say that one day we would let go? Besides, we are divorced now. Can I not allow him to have a new love?" I shrugged and replied."That's true, but that woman is Tawny! How could he not know that she has always wanted to sabotage your relationship, or perhaps they had something going on before?" Genevieve speculated.Before I saw them together, I was certain that Zander wouldn't ha

Jessica's POVThe key phrase "J&Z General Hospital" from Alexander's words struck me like a bolt from the blue. I froze instantly. The classmates around me began discussing fervently."I heard this general hospital project is being prepared by Harrison Group as a gift for his beloved," one said."Mr. Harrison is known for his cold and ruthless demeanor, but it turns out he's such a passionate man at heart. J&Z, the name itself sounds like it's derived from the initials of two people's names," another chipped in."Which Mr. Harrison are they talking about?" someone asked, confused."Are you drunk? How many Harrisons in Los Angeles can afford billions? It's obviously Zander Harrison," came the reply.J&Z, a name I knew all too well. I had once told him about my dream to build a large hospital to help more patients. When Zander planned this, I had no idea, and now it seemed the hospital was meant for someone else.I wasn't sure if he had found a new love so soon, but it was clear it wasn

Yet, those ambiguous words hung over me like a thin veil, occasionally tugging at my heart and pulling out a thread of doubt when I least expected it.Back in Los Angeles, we resumed our normal lives and work. However, I still didn't return to my apartment. I knew Zander wouldn't wait forever, just as time wouldn't stand still.The impact of the divorce gradually faded, and I no longer wallowed in sadness as I initially did. Instead, I slowly embraced the new rhythm of life.Genevieve was always aware of my emotional shifts. Seeing me in good spirits, she excitedly suggested, "Our class president is organizing a reunion. Let's go together."Genevieve and I attended the same university, both majoring in medicine. I frowned and said, "I never practiced as a doctor for a single day. I always feel out of place at these reunions.""Most of our
