Jessica's eyes flashed with mixed emotions.

She calmed down for a few seconds and said calmly, "Adam, don't try to use my father's death to mislead me or make mischief between Christian and me every time. I won't fall for your tricks!"

Looking at her determined look, Adam was stunned for two seconds. He then began to sneer weirdly, "It seems Christian has bewitched you. Do you really trust him completely? You'll regret it!"

Jessica’s emotions were unaffected by him. She looked more relaxed. She and Christian had just been so close to death abroad. If Christian had not risked his life to come to rescue and protect her, she might have been poisoned by that organization with a potion!

She did not trust anyone but him!

“Don’t ever mention it to me again unless you can show me solid evidence!" Jessica looked firmly at Adam and warned, "Or don’t blame me for suing you for slander!"

After saying that, she pulled hard the door open and went out.

When she got into her car, she texted Van

    Jessica stopped and turned around...The man who spoke just now rushed onstage and stood in front of Jessica, "Don't leave. I haven't professed my love to you!"A great cheer went up from the offstage audience.The man in front of Jessica wore casual suits and looked more mature than usual. He faced the audience and shouted, "I'm Hawley! I would like to profess my love to Jessica!"Jessica compressed her lips. 'I didn't expect Hazel to invite him...'"Why are you here?"However, Hazel asked in confusion. Although she came to France with Hawley, she didn't tell him the address where Jessica and she would go."Two beauties are waiting for someone to profess love on the stage. How can I miss it?" Hawley teased."Hawley, although you said 'two beauties', you have never looked at me but have only stared at Jessica. Have you paid any attention to me?"Hazel teased him.Hawley ignored Hazel and stared fixedly at Jessica.Jessica was a little awkward and asked Hazel, "Did you take h

    Jessica thought for a while. The interview with this mysterious bigwig today must be very different. She had to communicate with him in a different way.She picked up her phone and took a picture of the old castle in front of her. She then shared the photo on Twitter...Looking at the posted photo, Jessica walked to the flower bed by the gate and sat down. She called Vanessa in a calm manner. “Vanessa, are you in France now?""No, I'm not. What's wrong?" Vanessa was puzzled.Jessica said, “Nothing. I'm filming a reality show in France now. A bigwig asked me to go to his castle and interview him. I remembered that you posted your castle in France on Twitter the other day, so I wondered if you were here. If so, I'd like to meet you after the interview.""What a pity!"Vanessa sighed. “I just left this morning. Had I known you were coming, I would have left later.""It's okay. There will be plenty of opportunities," Jessica said with a smile. “All right. I have to go to work. Bye."

    Having noticed how beautiful Jessica was, all playboys in the box wolf-whistled. The couple of female models sensibly left.Jessica swiveled her head around and saw those men ogling at her.It had never crossed her mind that Adam would dare make such a ballsy move in Vanessa's castle...She attempted to break free from Adam's hold, but the latter threw her into those men's embrace with a swing of his arm.Adam pivoted around and walked into a corner. Jessica subconsciously struggled, trying to get to her feet, but the one behind her roughly dragged her back and with that the other men clustered around her."Adam invited you over to hang out with us. It's rude of you to be so uncooperative, don't you think?" Eyes of the playboys besieging her were lecherously moving up and down her body.Hardly had Jessica wriggled free than a couple of hands gripped her arms. "Her face is not only fair-complexioned but also so smooth. She's a real looker. You have impressively discerning eyes, Ad

    At that moment, the female assistant named Eldar on the bed in the bedroom somehow managed to pull the wad of material out of her mouth and, coughing, yelled, "Let go of me! Help! Someone help!"Having noticed that the female assistant had blood in her mouth and looked much the worse for wear, Jessica said, "Let her go. If you people inflict any more torture on her, she'll die!"The playboy whose ear was adorned with studs was clearly the one calling the shots. He grabbed Jessica's chin and, looking over his shoulder at the female assistant named Eldar, barked disdainfully, "Release her! We'll have some fun with this chick instead! She's fresh!"Eldar on the bed had the ropes around her untied. Struggling to keep her balance, she staggered outside. When trotting past Jessica, Eldar glanced at her. Jessica glanced back. If this girl had spunk, she would try to get help the instant she walked out of the front door. It all depended on whether Eldar was afraid of getting into trouble or

    "You don't need to know who I am! What you people do need to know is that this woman is Christian Maddox's woman! Do you have a death wish?!" Hawley snapped flintily before he squeezed his way through the crowd and scooped up Jessica in his arms to get her out.Emanating a brooding air, Adam waylaid him. "What do you think you're doing, Hawley? You're not the one calling the shots here."Hawley scorned to cast another glance at Adam. Eyes glinting wintrily, he turned to the playboys again and said, "None of you guys is well acquainted with Adam Smith, I suppose? It's unwise to mess with someone you can't afford to mess with because of someone you don't know well enough. Beware heartless evildoers who derive pleasure from victimizing people, and who like to use others to kill for them!"With that Hawley strode off, carrying Jessica in his arms.Adam was just about to give chase when the playboys collared him. One of them asked, "Adam, was he telling the truth? She's really Christian

    Having perceived the hint of uncharacteristic earnestness and poise in Hawley's seemingly nonchalant response, Jessica felt a faint pang of mixed feelings.She was a married woman, and she was very satisfied with her marriage to Christian, so Hawley was doing himself no service by keeping doing so much for her.However, when it came to this kind of things, there was nothing that could be done, especially when she was an interested party in this matter. Those closely involved cannot see as clearly as those outside. She could only hope that Hawley would come to his senses someday...*Jessica was deep in thought when suddenly a rumble of engine came through the car window...She swiveled her head aside to see a sports car rapidly closing in on Hawley's car from behind, emanating a brooding air.Hawley frowned slightly. Having realized that something was amiss, he pressed down hard on the gas pedal, rotated the steering wheel sharply with a fluent movement and quickly left that car

    Jessica had lost track of time when she opened her eyes to find herself lying in a hospital bed, an needle sticking in the back of her hand for an IV.She subconsciously moved her hands and legs and discovered that the pain was gone. Also, the discomfort in her stomach had also ebbed.Feeling a little thirsty, she stirred. Moments later, Hazel walked into the compartment from outside."How do you feel, Jess? Are you experiencing any discomfort?""I feel much better now." Jessica asked, "What happened to me?""The doctor said you'd undergone a major surgery not long ago and got hit earlier this day, which was why you experienced the pain. It's nothing serious, but you need to stay another two days for observation."With that Hazel sat on the edge of Jessica's bed, tears in eyes. "Were you really hospitalized when you were abroad last month?"Knowing that she could no longer conceal it, Jessica smiled in an effort to lighten the mood, "I had an accident there, and I did undergo a

    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

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

    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

    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

    "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
