Chase Me Again Chapter 29
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
Chase Me Again Chapter 30
Jessica's POV When I discovered that my new neighbor was Zander, I was momentarily stunned, unable to react at first. How could he just show up here? How did he become my neighbor? Zander saw me, and his eyes flickered with a hint of surprise, but he quickly tried to hide it, returning to his usual indifferent expression. However, I still caught the undeniable joy deep in his eyes. "Good afternoon, Jessica," he said blandly, trying his best to make his voice sound unaffected. I frowned, directly accusing him, "You've been investigating me, stalking me?" Zander looked at my expression with only surprise, but not unexpectedness. So, I couldn't believe this was merely a coincidence. If he really had been secretly monitoring me, that would be unacceptable. Zander shook his head slightly, a hint of helplessness crossing his face, "Our home is too quiet now, I can't sleep." His voice was deep, tinged with a bit of fatigue. I let out a cold laugh, sarcastically reto

Jessica's POVI moved the mouse and immediately clicked on the email.The first thing that caught my eye was a photo - a candid shot of Alvin and me dining at the restaurant yesterday.But the angle was extremely cunning.

Jessica's POVI realized I was hoping that the person who came was Zander.I tried to shake this absurd thought out of my mind and said to Alvin, "Don't be ridiculous. Who would I be hoping for? Just a slip of the tongue, that's all."Alvin looked at me, smiled, and didn't continue the topic.

Chase Me Again Chapter 43
Jessica's POVI don't know when I drifted off into a deep slumber, but I remember waking up to the sweet embrace of a dream.As the first rays of morning sunlight gently caressed my face, I awoke with an unprecedented sense of relief.Upon arriving at the dining room, Justin and Aurelia were already seated at the table.Justin was flipping through a finance magazine, while Aurelia sipped her morning tea quietly."Good morning," I greeted them with a smile.The maid approached and placed a glass of milk in front of me."Please replace it with juice, thank you." I instructed the maid on a whim.As usual, Justin casually cut his food while nonchalantly asking, "How many days do you plan to stay at home this time?"I was taken aback for a moment, realizing that deep down, I was looking forward to returning to Los Angeles.After pretending to ponder for a moment, I said, "I'll be heading back tomorrow.""What?" Aurelia looked at me in surprise.My face immediately felt hot. I coughed light

Jessica's POVThe clear sound of the notification was jarringly out of place in the quiet room, instantly shattering my reminiscence.I walked over to the desk and saw a new email on the laptop screen.The unfamiliar sender piqued my curiosity. With a click of the mouse, I opened the email to find a video file attached.Could this be some kind of virus?Despite my concerns, my overwhelming curiosity led me to click play.As the video began to load and the image gradually clarified, my heart sank as if plunged into an icy lake.The video was a surveillance recording. The familiar layout and setting let me instantly identify it as Zander's office.In the footage, a man and a woman were seen entwined, subsequently engaging in intimate acts.The woman, with long and thick golden curls, was straddling the man's lap, slightly tilting her head back.It was Serena!And the man facing away from the camera was indeed Zander. I remembered the suit he was wearing. I must have been standing at the

Jessica's POVI walked into the dining room, where the butler stood respectfully to the side, swiftly pulling out a chair for me.My gaze casually swept across the open kitchen, catching sight of a figure in a pristine white chef's uniform bustling about the stove.Justin seemed to notice my attention and explained, "This is the chef I've specially invited for today. He's a master chef from a three-star Michelin restaurant. His culinary skills are exceptional. You'll get to taste it."I nodded as he skillfully flipped the steak. His every movement was smooth and fluid, as if he was performing an exquisite dance.In no time, a perfectly cooked steak was served in front of me. The tender meat had a delightful caramel color.The side dishes were also arranged with care, resembling a piece of fine art.A small stir in my heart, Justin remembered my favorite medium-rare.As I took a couple of bites of the steak, savoring the wonderful taste of the meat, Aurelia, sitting opposite me, said w

Chase Me Again Chapter 39
Jessica's POVFrank's voice was so loud. It seemed to make my phone vibrate with his fervor.However, it couldn't quite mask the lack of conviction in his words.Watching his performance, I couldn't help but sneer, "His mind is really strong. He's still lying at this point."Alvin also shook his head helplessly and said, "Otherwise, how could he have been causing so much trouble in Alpha for so many years? People like him have long cultivated a 'strong mindset'."Frank's channel was flooded with more viewers.More and more people began to question him based on the evidence we had released.Frank didn't want to respond, but he had to face it.Just then, there was a knock on his door.Frank was taken aback for a moment, then breathed a sigh of relief.He muttered quietly, "Who's here at this time?"He got up to open the door. When the door opened, his face turned pale instantly.Several police officers stood sternly at the door, one of them saying, "Frank, you are suspected of spreading

Jessica's POVTabitha's words had barely left her lips when Alvin and I exchanged a swift glance.We were confirming our shared suspicions in that instant.Ever since I received that malicious email, I had felt a vague connection to Frank, though lacking concrete evidence and unsure of his further moves.However, it seemed that he was not as formidable as I had imagined. His tactics were just so-so.Alvin nodded slightly and turned to Tabitha, his tone steady and calm, "I see. Release what we prepared earlier.""And that's all?" Tabitha questioned."One more thing, check who is absent now," Alvin added.Tabitha's face was etched with concern. She wanted to say something more but stopped herself, simply responding with an "Okay," before hurrying out of the office.The door closed. Alvin and I took out our phones to check Frank's live stream.On my phone screen, Frank's face loomed large. His expression was exaggerated and almost comical as he spoke at length.He waved his left hand tow
Chase Me Again Chapter 37
Jessica's POVThere were two reasons for me saying that to Zander.First, I was ready to face the trouble head-on.Second, I was telling Zander that he didn't need to take care of me anymore.After all, I planned to divorce him. Our current intimacy was inappropriate.Zander immediately caught the implication in my words.His eyebrows furrowed. Then, he instinctively retorted, "You're not fully recovered. Why the rush to go to the company?"I looked at him, my tone resolute, "It's just a common fever. I'm not as fragile as you think. Moreover, can I hide here for the rest of my life?"Zander's lips twitched. He wanted to argue, but in the end, he sighed and said nothing.For a couple of years, he knew me well. Once I made a decision, it wasn't easy to change.He looked at me helplessly. I found the creamy mushroom soup suddenly tasteless.I watched him put down his knife and fork. I immediately stood up, taking his plate."I'll clean up today," I said.I stacked the dishes and carried
