Flash Marriage in a Heartbeat Chapter 17 A Surprise
Jessica thought with a sullen face, 'This person can take so many pictures of me and Mask, and even knows that I knew Wade. She must be working here. Now that Adam acquiesced in Adele's schemes against me and made me the target of public criticism, I won't let them go easily!'Downstairs, as soon as Adele got out of the car, she was surrounded by the reporters, "Adele, as Jessica's friend, do you know she is such a promiscuous woman privately?"Adele looked innocent, "It can't be true. Jessica is not that kind of person..."Adele's assistant stepped forward, "Adele has been living a simple life. She has never been in love or in any scandal. Jessica never told her anything about that. Don't ask her anymore!" Jessica looked at her coldly from the window on the second floor. There was a sneer at the corners of her lips.*On the top floor of Maddox Group, Ethan, the special assistant, handed the iPad to the president, "Mr. Maddox, do we need to help Miss Bush solve the problem?"The m
Flash Marriage in a Heartbeat Chapter 18 You Don't Deserve My Attention
All of a sudden! Online public opinion began to shift in favor of Jessica. They thought all of this was just Adela's tricks against Jessica in order to steal Jessica's boyfriend."Jess, have you read the online comments?"Only when he and Adela were involved did Adam bother to call her.Jessica didn't feel sad anymore. She sneered, "Yes.""Where did that come from?"Adam didn't care whether Jessica was the one behind the scenes; instead, he was curious about whether she had known the things between him and Adela and how much she had known."Why didn't you call me and ask yesterday?" Her calmness was in stark contrast to Adam's anxiety.Adam tried his best to hide the truth, "I was very busy yesterday. I was on the plane to Germany last night... What on earth is going on?""How am I supposed to know?"Jessica pretended to be aggrieved, "They had waited for me outside the building all day. I had to stay at the TV Station yesterday."Adam was uncertain; he wasn't sure if this
Flash Marriage in a Heartbeat Chapter 19 Isn't He Captain Smith?
An internet celebrity published a photo and video on the Internet.The title was "A captain working at the Smith Group took his girlfriend into the cockpit regardless of the lives of one hundred and fifty passengers!"It did make a sensation!For a moment, instead of wondering whether Jessica was slutty or evil, everyone began paying attention to the hottest news."Are you sure it isn't a simulator?""No! It's during the flight! I have asked an insider!""Damn! What's wrong with the Smith Group? How come they hired such a captain?""As long as this woman pressed a button, more than one hundred and fifty people would suffer a poor death." Someone cursed, "Thank god the flight landed in security. Have you heard about the air crash in 1994?" "A captain working in Russian Airlines took his son into the cockpit, but the plane went out of control and crashed into the mountain. The seventy-five passengers all died!"Jessica tidied the bag belt and wedged herself outside the crowd in c
Flash Marriage in a Heartbeat Chapter 20 I Hope I Could Be Good Enough For You
So... fast?Jessica wasn't prepared at all."Adam is Cain's only son, so the Smith Group will definitely try hard to protect him. Even if he has been kicked out for the moment, it's no more than a matter of expediency. What's more, considering Adela's personality, she is absolutely reluctant to be rested. Perhaps, she is plotting something...Christian cut in as he shot her a piercing glance, "Don't beat around the bush!"Jessica pursed her lips. "I mean... It's not yet the best time to make our relationship public.""You're indeed ambitious."Christian stared at her, her eyes flashing with mysterious light.Jessica didn't know how to explain it.She promised Christian to keep their relationship a secret temporarily until she reclaimed those things.She didn't want to break her promise, but..."I have got what I want. I don't want to make things difficult for them unless they embarrass me." Jessica tried hard to add, "I just think I'm not good for you now." Christian leaned o

Christian's eyes were full of affection. He looked at Jessica intently. She was moved and withdrew her elbows that were against his chest slowly.They had a wonderful night.The next day, Jessica was wakened up by a knock on the door.Christian had got up and wasn't in the room.Jessica opened the door confusedly. A dressy middle-aged woman stood at the door with her eyes lit up when she saw Jessica."Jessica, right?"The woman pulled Jessica's hands. "Come here. Let me have a look!"The woman looked Jessica up and down. Then the woman craned her neck to look around the room. "Where is Wade?"'Where is Wade?'Wade had run upstairs last night before Christian took Jessica to the bedroom, so she had no idea where Wade slept.Christian heard the noises, so he walked out of the study and went downstairs. He was surprised. "Why did you come back?""I heard that I finally had a daughter-in-law, so I came back!" The woman stared at Jessica."Hi, Mom!"Wade rubbed his eyes and wal

"Mom... what are you talking about?"Wade had a new hairstyle done just now，but his mom ruffled it while scolding him."I said that Jess is very likely to be pregnant, and you are going to be a daddy! Don't play dumb!" Madam Maddox scolded Wade."Come on. It should be my brother who is going to be a daddy, okay? It is none of my business." Wade's heart jumped fast. Madam Maddox was so serious that he was inexplicably nervous. "What?"This time, it was Madam Maddox who became nervous.She turned to look at her two sons and then at Jessica. "Jess, you and... Christian..."What on earth was going on?Madam Maddox was a little reluctant to accept that Jess might have a relationship with both of her sons. She did not know whether the young people were too open-minded now or she was too conservative. "Jess… who is your child's daddy...?""Of course it's me!"Christian replied coldly.Jessica was frightened by Christian's firm and sonorous noise. She subconsciously stroked her fla
Flash Marriage in a Heartbeat Chapter 23 Not Pregnant
Christian always remained calm, but he could not conceal his anxiety anymore.He had mixed feelings. He was excited and anxious.He paid more attention to it than to his project which was valued at billions every minute."Dr. Wilson, how is she? Is she pregnant?" Madam Maddox urged.Dr. Wilson ran his fingers through his beard and said slowly, "She is not pregnant.""Hey! What did you smile at? You scared me!!" Wade shouted first."After the check-up, I find out the reason why she has stomach disorders and low blood gas. As long as she takes the medicine for a few days, she will be fully recovered and get pregnant easily!""It's great. Please prescribe for her!"When Madam Maddox heard that Jessica would be pregnant easily, Madam Maddox cheered up and urged Dr. Wilson to prescribe.Jessica breathed a sigh of relief.Christian relaxed and changed his sitting posture. He stiffened with anxiety just now.Unexpectedly, Dr. Wilson walked back and looked at Christian, "Young man,

Jessica glanced at Christian, who sat on the driver's seat with a cold face."What's wrong?""Where are you? I have been waiting for you outside your home all morning!" Adam repeated his question in an impatient tone."It seems I shouldn't have answered your call."Jessica put on a show of disappointment and resentment, and pretended to be about to hang up the phone. Only then did Adam become anxious over the phone. "Jess, wait a moment..."Jessica ignored him and hung up.The man in the driver's seat remained silent, but the atmosphere was much colder.Approaching the TV station, Jessica straightened the strap of her bag and said, "I will take care of these things as soon as possible."Christian nodded blandly, and the car stopped steadily.She opened the door and got out of the car. Soon after that, a man wearing a hat with a low brim jumped out suddenly and pulled her behind the flowerbed."Jess."Adam raised his head. His eyes were bloodshot with huge dark circles beneat

The next day, Jessica went to work in the TV station. Her assistant reported the recent schedule to her.Jessica listened for a while, raised her head and asked, "Didn't you say that I needed to prepare for Leap Art's gala evening on New Year's Eve next week?"The assistant said in a hurry, "It occurs to me... It may be changed. We'd better delay the preparation in case you will prepare for it in vain...""What's the matter?" Jessica frowned slightly."I have arranged for someone to investigate and haven't gotten the exact news yet. It is said that the organizers of Leap Art's gala evening on New Year's Eve have changed their minds and will invite Adela to replace you...," the assistant said."Adela?"Gail was drinking coffee and writing the plan in Jessica's office. When Gail heard that, she stood up and said anxiously, "Adela has just made a comeback. Even though she becomes popular slightly, how can she replace Jess in the image or influence?""It is said that Adela's remuner

[It's because I think my acting skills are not worthy of your script.]Jessica replied seriously.Hawley became anxious and replied without punctuation. [Don't worry I will try my best to help you and won't urge you]Jessica paused and replied with a smile. [I haven't finished speaking. Hold on. Since you have waited for a long time, please give me some time if you don't mind. I would like to find an acting teacher and learn how to act. After I'm sure that I can play the role, I will join in your movie. How is it?]Recently, more films and TV dramas started inviting Jessica. Many of them had great investments and groups. Jessica obviously felt that the current situation was pushing her to change.It was impossible for her to reject all of them, but she couldn't shoot all the films or TV dramas with the attitude as if she was doing a guest appearance. She would better be prepared before she met the chances. If so, she would be more confident.Hawley paused. It took him some time t

The next afternoon, when it was time for Jessica to get off work, Hawley arrived at the appointed time.Jessica took him to the nearest restaurant to the TV station. She said with a smile, "It's not a high-end restaurant. Just order expensive dishes."Hawley also smiled, "Expensive dishes do not necessarily taste good!""Having said that, I would like to thank you. Expensive dishes can show my sincerity at least," Jessica said.Hawley put down the menu, looked at her and said seriously, "If you would like to thank me, how about consider my invitation seriously? I want to invite you to be the heroine in my first movie!"Hawley was sincere. He looked passionate and vigorous for his first movie. It was hard for Jessica to refuse."Have you drawn your inspiration in France?" She didn't refuse him directly but changed the topic.Hawley said seriously, "I have spent three years on the script. When I studied abroad, I wrote it with my best friend. I almost finish it recently. I believe

Griffin kept his promise.The next day after Jessica's return, Jakesville TV Station put the interview of GL's successor, Neil, on the air. Meanwhile, everyone received the email that announced Gail's promotion to senior editor.The directors in their team were all delighted. People from their sister teams also urged Gail to treat them to dinner. Gail agreed generously and decided to throw a party to celebrate her promotion in the evening. *After several rounds of wine, Gail was giddy with delight and tipsy. With a goblet in her hand, she sat beside Jessica and grinned. "Jess, I owe my promotion to you. I've racked my brains but still know not how to express my gratitude… How about I leave my paycheck to you?" Jessica couldn't help but giggle.She poked Gail's forehead. "Are you going to marry me?""Look, this is all that I can give. Then again, you're not short of money. Tell me what I should do."Jessica looked at Gail's tender, pursed lips and wrapped her arm around
Flash Marriage in a Heartbeat Chapter 523 Be Reluctant to Restrict Her
At sea, the anxious Christian calmed down and was relieved finally. He took off his coat and wrapped her up tightly.She looked at him and asked, "Why did you come here?"Christian compressed his thin lips and reached out to smooth her hair beside her ears. It was a little messy because of the wind.Christian had arranged for someone to protect her since she pissed off GL's Neil in France. The nobles all knew that GL's Neil was malicious, especially for beautiful women.As soon as Christian's men reported to Christian that Jessica suddenly bought an air ticket and went abroad alone, Christian guessed that she was going to deal with Neil.Christian was afraid that Jessica would be unable to deal with Neil. He didn't have any time to care about other things and followed Jessica to come to France.Luckily, he arrived in time. Otherwise, even if Jessica dealt with Neil, she would be unable to deal with Jerome. Jerome was not a man to be trifled with."Don't take risks again! If you
Flash Marriage in a Heartbeat Chapter 522 No One Dared to Stop Him
As Jerome confronted him coldly, Christian's narrowed eyes slid out of focus for a second.Soon, he collected himself, and ferocity suppressed the gloom in his eyes. "Before I figure out the entire thing, I'll keep her out of harm's way! Even if someone tells her the truth one day, it has to be me and not you! You'd better stay away from her!" Jerome's face also turned gloomy. "I was not interested in her or those trivial matters in the past, but destiny guided me to meet her. Then I find that those matters are pretty interesting…And the more annoyed you are, the more interesting I find it… Besides, you stole my lines. The one who should stay away from her is you!" "Don't bother. This is between my wife and me," Christian declared his sovereignty once again.Jerome looked askance at Christian. His gloomy voice became huskier and more horrifying. "If she knew the truth, do you think she would still believe you?"Christian knitted his brows as he exhorted in a
Flash Marriage in a Heartbeat Chapter 521 When Are You Gonna Tell Her
"Christian?"Jessica spun around and did a double take, mixed delight and incredulity in her eyes.Christian made his way to her and took her by the hand. "You're still recovering. How could you run around like this?"Christian's voice was steely. Though he was speaking to Jessica, it was the man opposite her that his piercing eyes flashed at.At this moment, the bodyguards outside the cabin hurried inside all at once. One of them bowed to Jerome and explained apologetically, "Mr. Garan, he's brought some men here... We failed to stop them..."Jerome waved his hand testily and, restraining his annoyance, rose to his feet and looked at Christian. "Nice to see you again, Mr. Maddox." Though his words were a greeting, his face were rather tight."I heard only a few days ago that there's some turbulence going on in the Garan family. It surprises me Mr. Garan is still in the mood for partying," Christian said acidly."Oh, you're pretty well-informed, Mr. Maddox!" Jerome remarked with

"I'm just a nobody, and all I want is for the job to be done in a peaceful fashion. I have no reason to work against you on my own initiative unless you leave me no choice, don't you think?" Jessica said, her face bland.Having no alternative but to resign himself to accepting it, Neil said testily, "Fine! Get it over with!"A smile curled Jessica's lips as her beautiful eyes moved to the outline for the interview on the sofa. "Speak according to the outline and answer my every question. Here we go."Watching Neil obediently pick up the interview outline with resentment etched on his face, Jessica snickered and turned on her digital recorder.**Twenty minutes later, the interview came to a successful end.Having obtained what she wanted, Jessica operated the digital recorder for a moment and then stowed it in her handbag.Neil had had enough of it. He hurled the interview outline she'd given him to the floor and, springing to his feet testily, blustered, "I see any of those pho

Neil's eyes glittered with alarm at the sight of the picture on Jessica's phone, the corners of his mouth twitching in spite of himself.On the sofa he'd been sitting a moment ago sat a couple of female models. Neil glared over his left shoulder and then the right one at the girls and thundered, "Beat it!""Neil..."A charming girl, unwilling to leave, walked over and, holding his hand, said, "Where do you want us to go?""Get out of my sight! Now!" Neil stormed shiftily.His bawl brought all the girls trotting out helter-skelter...Jessica, taking advantage of the opportunity, took back her phone and unhurriedly put it into her handbag in the presence of Neil."Let's go somewhere else to talk," Neil said to Jessica, rising to his feet and leading the way for the door.Jessica remained where she was. With a smile that never reached her eyes, she said, "I thought you liked the lively atmosphere in this place."The corners of Neil's mouth twitched and he snapped, "It's not every
