Jessica was surprised.

‘Me? But I was not told about this before…’

The product manager smiled faintly and gestured for her to stand beside him. Jessica quickly calmed down and calmly cooperated with the product manager to say hello to the audience.

But just as the product manager was about to project the product onto the big screen, the lights suddenly went out. The hall was plunged into darkness instantly.

"What's going on?"

The product manager held the luminous machine. Jessica saw his pale face against the faint light.

She reached out and turned around the machine that was pointed at the product manager's chin.

The audience instantly panicked.

Everyone thought something had happened. They forgot their manners and whispered. Some even suggested running away along the emergency passage.

"The power is out. Don’t panic. We are prepared."

Jessica reassured the product manager. She then took the machine from him and turned it towards Gail standing offstage. When seeing Gail maki

    Jessica heard Gail grumbling by the stage at her feet.She also clenched fists secretly. It seemed that Adela thought Jessica was not easy to deal with, so she turned to vent her anger on Jessica's holographic projection!The product manager was also a bit embarrassed.After all, he promised just now, and Adela just wanted to test Sunny's motor skills. It was unreasonable to stop her right now...Jessica blinked slightly, and a cold light appeared in her clear eyes. Even if it was just her projection that tied Adela's shoelaces, Jessica couldn't accept it...At this moment, there was a crisp sound.Everyone looked at the sound source behind.The gate of the venue opened. A tall man stood in the passage, with his back to the bright light.He was wearing a blue and white gown with his hair tied up. His dashing eyebrows, the fluttering gown in the wind, and his perfect figure were so captivating when he stood between light ad shade. Someone whispered, "...is that Wade Maddox?"

    ‘We are now on stage and this is a live broadcast!'‘Does Christian think we are in his bedroom?

A man said behind her.Jessica turned around. It was the product manager."You're welcome. It's my duty as a host."Then she thought of something and asked, "We had many rehearsals.

His chin even seemed to be stuck in the collar of his shirt, which made him look a bit comical.The man was obviously excited. He did not expect to meet Jessica here. "I'm Daniel Lord. We met at a wine party before. I remember you. Do you remember me?"The man leaned his fat face forward with enthusiasm. Jessica dodged him in a hurry.The waiter served the food. Daniel did not even glance at the food. He fixed his gaze on Jessica’s face and impatiently waved his hand at the waiter."Miss Bush, you wore a white cheongsam at the party that day and looked very beautiful. I even dreamed of you wearing that dress later. Haha.”Seeing Daniel drool over her with a smile, Jessica felt a little disgusted.At the same time, it was the first time that she had been disappointed with Granny Maddox’s taste.This guy was not ugly?He was outstanding and silent?"Then you might as well buy that dress and admire it at ho

Adam continued, "I miss her every night..."Jessica frowned and glared at Adam.Yet he ignored her warning and turned to look at Daniel, "Jess didn't have any other preferences, and she just liked to play some little games!"Daniel shuddered and took a step backw

    "And that scumbag, Adam. Looking at his attitude just now, is he trying to pester you? You should also be careful." Gail reminded her again.Jessica nodded, "He must have sensed something... Maybe he thinks I'm still of use."She shook her head and changed the subject, "Let's not talk about it. I've needed your help again.""For what?"Gail's eyes immediately widened in anticipation."Jared's been chairman for quite a while. It's time for him to step aside."When Gail heard it, she was very excited. "I have been waiting for this day for a long time! How are you going to explode his dirt?"Jessica smiled, "We don't have to do it ourselves.

    The next day, the whole family had breakfast together.Wade, with his disheveled hair and black-rimmed glasses, looked sleep-deprived yet had no choice but to join them. "It's rare for you to get up on time for breakfast, yet you are pulling a long face. Did you get out of bed on the wrong side?" Madam Maddox couldn't bear it.Wade glanced at the aloof man across the table and hastily explained, "No, no, no. I’m all good."When Madam Maddox had something to do and left, Wade looked up and asked Jessica, "Jessica, if I were to send flowers to a girl, what would be the best for me to send?"Jessica was a little surprised, "You got a girlfriend?""To be exact... It's a girl I like.""Then send her red roses. It's straightforward and passionate." Jessica suggested."What if... I like to be reserved?""Do you... still like to be reserved?"Wade was embarrassed for a few seconds and then suddenly asked bluntly, "So what kind of flowers do you like?"‘What?’Jessica was a little

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?"

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.

    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.

    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
