For a second Jessica appeared rather awkward. She had little acquaintance with this puissant man, but this man clearly knew more than a few things about her.Why had he insisted that she do the interview and accompany him from start to finish?It struck her that things were not as simple as they seemed...She didn't deny the fact that she was married, but there was no way she was standing on her toes to fix his tie for him. That was out of line.Morrison eyed her fixedly, the lines around his mouth tightening.Another few seconds later, he impatiently whipped his hands from his pockets, grabbed his tie and, giving it a pull, snapped, "I'll do it myself!"His pull was hefty. Jessica did not know whether he did it intentionally or unintentionally, but because of the pull, she was jerked over to him as well and bumped into his chest."You did it on purpose?"Morrison's voice was tingled with a slight drawl, a ghost of a sly smile touching his lips.Jessica quickly regained her ba
The next day, Jessica was dressed formally in a suit dress and high heels. She got into Mr. Morrison's assistant's car. He drove her to a new enterprise zone. As she walked towards the entrance in spike heels, Jessica noticed some people standing at the entrance were looking at her strangely.She also noticed that she was different from them.Everyone, including Mr. Morrison, was dressed casually except her. She was dressed formally as if she was going to attend a tender meeting.Jessica followed Mr. Morrison and walked him around the enterprise zone. He was not attending a party at all today... This was a newly developed zone, and Mr. Morrison came here to inspect it.This zone was so big and divided into several large areas, including entertainment, sports, meetings areas, and so on. She could find everything here. Led by the head of the enterprise zone, they walked around in the zone for the whole afternoon.Jessica was finally too tired to feel her feet...At the end of the
Jessica breathed deeply twice before she finally managed to subdue her urge to tear the outline for the interview into pieces and throw them into Morrison's face.She slowly walked to the roadside of the shopping street and stood there to wait.The car door was shut, and the inky car window kept Jessica from seeing anything inside the vehicle.She psyched herself up for a boring long wait. Hungry, tired, her ankle aching, she took a quick glance around and found that several feet away from her was a drugstore.After casting a look at her ankle wound, she walked into the drugstore, bought a Band-Aid and covered her wound with it.The black Bentley was still parked by the roadside when she walked out.Sitting in the car, Morrison looked at Jessica who was maintaining an appropriate standing position despite the sharp pain, the expression in his eyes growing inscrutable.The assistant in front, having divined what Morrison was thinking, said, "Mr. Garan, last night Neil used your p
The next morning.Jessica was woken by the ringtone from her cellphone.She casually rolled over and, without even opening her eyes, reached for her cellphone on the nightstand, but unexpectedly, instead of her cellphone, her hand came into contact with a warm face.After a second's pause, her eyes flew open and she saw Morrison's face only inches away from hers! Also, he had her phone in his hand.The ringtone stopped as Morrison ran his finger across the phone screen. Having noticed that she was awake, Morrison straightened himself and explained impatiently, "I thought you could use some extra sleep.""Wh--Why are you here?"She was instantaneously wide awake.Then she lowered her head only to see that she was wearing a men's nightgown instead of her own outfit.Agitated, she grabbed the pillow and, hurling it at Morrison's face, demanded, "Why are you in my room?!"The pillow fell to the floor as Morrison flared, "Take a careful look! This is my room!"With that Jessica's
"Okay."Having finished speaking, Jessica decisively walked out and returned to her own hotel room to freshen up. After that, without even eating her meal first, she fell to revising the transcript of the interview according to Morrison's comments.At lunchtime, she showed Morrison the revised version of the draft, but he was still dissatisfied and pointed out some new problematic parts, so she had to go back to revise it again.It was shortly before 6 p.m., the time at which Morrison was scheduled to leave Jakesville, that she handed in the final draft of the report."Mm... This one's satisfactory."Unexpectedly, Morrison green-lighted it without picking on her.After putting down the transcript, Morrison nodded towards the serving of dinner opposite him and said, "The job is done. Can you join me for dinner now?"Jessica was indeed hungry.Without any pretense of courteousness, she sat opposite him and began to eat.They were halfway through the meal when the clock stroke si
This was the day of the annual party of the TV station.All staff members were celebrating in a restaurant. Jessica took a cab straight to the restaurant for the annual party.During the ride, she called the private detective and said, "I need you to run a background check on a guy by the name of Jerome Garan. Apart from that, I need all the information you can get about the heir to the GL Group, the more detailed, the better!"The private detective undertook to get the job done.*There was an award ceremony ongoing on the rostrum when Jessica arrived at the venue for the annual party.The young emcee said with vehement excitement, "The next award is a very heart-warming one! It's a full-attendance bonus!"Among us, there's this one particular colleague of ours who hasn't taken a single day off in the past five years -- no leave of absence, no sick leave, no days off in lieu. She's always been a dedicated editor, creating high-quality programs for our station, each better than
The wind was very cold at night, but Jessica had a clear head because of the cold.GL's Morrison was the playboy with studded ears in Vanessa's old castle. Jessica beat him up that day. He was Neil Morrison!'I will retaliate! I won't let off him who has fooled me...!'She calmed down for a while and called Griffin, "Director Jameson..."Before she finished speaking, Griffin said in anger, "How dare you call me? Have you dealt with the interview? It is GL's successor's first exclusive interview in our country! It is screwed! Do you know how much our TV station will lose?!"Jessica paused for three seconds.When she kept silent, Griffin also calmed down slightly.Only then did she say, "Director Jameson, it's not the time to quibble over it. You're smart and must be aware that GL's Morrison set the trap for me deliberately. Now the key is how to solve the problem."Griffin had heard that Jessica was calm in the face of crisis. When Jakesville TV station met crises, she could alw
Jessica recalled the day of Neil's chase. The latter forced Hawley and her to pull over. If the man in the passenger seat didn't check him sternly, Hawley might have fought Neil…It was indeed Jerome who poked his head out of the passenger side!According to the intelligence from the private detective, Jerome was a mysterious man.He was different from Neil, the young owner of GL and the only heir to his family. The Morrisons owned a colossal business. That was the reason why he could throw his weight about. Nothing, not even Maddox Group, could deter him.The Garan family was fabulously wealthy even though they didn't own any star entities.The Garans had shares in nearly all the major conglomerates, both at home and abroad. Neil obeyed Jerome because the latter was the largest shareholder of GL! "What about Jerome?"Vanessa asked with concern, "Did he cause you trouble?" Jessica took a breath, "To be precise, Jerome and Neil set up a trap, and I fell into it."Vane
