"Louis XIII?" Christian said."..." Jessica was dumbfounded.Did Christian get x-ray vision or a dog's nose?!When she had dinner with Jared, they did order wine... so she had alcohol on her breath. But how could he smell it?Jessica's eyes flickered, while Christian's eyes sharpened."Can you drink even if you work late at the TV station?"She actually didn't intend to lie, but the timing just wasn't right, "I went to Wasin Group today...""Go to Wasin Group for a drink?"Christian's voice was sullen as the corners of his lips curled up in a cold smile."No... I went to dinner with Jared tonight...""You forgot you said to remain chaste!"Jessica avoided his gleaming eyes, "I haven't forgotten. But Jared and I... are not up to the realm of remaining chaste yet.""What about Adam?"Jessica's eyelids fluttered, "How do you know?"On second thought, she realized that it was no trouble at all for Christian wanting to know what was going on.She held back her displeasure at
This year, Jessica did have a very tired birthday.She unexpectedly received a transfer of shares from her father on his deathbed, and struggled to deal with Adam and Jared. Then she fell asleep in a daze while she didn't want to do so.She slept in Christian's slender arms.They were covered with the same quilt. He rested on the pillow, while she rested on his arm.Christian was also a little tired, but he did not want to sleep. He wanted to get up to light a cigarette to refresh himself, but was reluctant to let go of the sleeping woman in his arms.She was sleeping soundly, and her long, thick black hair was scattered on the bed, slipping across his arm. And her fair face was as mellow as an apple.Her breathing was even and warm, while her arched body and slightly bent elbows looked so harmless and endearing.This completely relaxed sleeping posture of hers made Christian suddenly feel very familiar.He thought of a cat he had raised before.The cat was fattened by him and
Jessica got up late and simply took two days off to adjust her state at home.She had reported it to the TV station. Recently, she was going to shoot a commercial for the Talent League, so taking time off was the norm.At noon, the butler prepared a feast to see Madam Maddox off. and she would leave after eating.As a result, as soon as Jessica sat down with Madam Maddox, she heard the maid's voice from the door, "Sir, you are back...?""Yes."The man walked in with his long legs, while both women at the table were surprised."Christian, you are so busy, yet you still rush back to see me off. I'm so pleased!"Christian's long, thick eyelashes fluttered slightly. He glanced at the woman on the other side with mixed feelings.After the meal.The driver drove Madam Maddox to the airport, while Jessica nestled on the couch reading trending topics.[Breaking News] Jared, chairman of Wasin Group, was confirmed to be a scumbag.-[Wasin Group has been in a bad time lately. Both chai
Since Mr. Maddox was concerned about the mental health of his employees, Ethan was supposed to share his worries.However, anger flared up in Mr. Maddox's eyes, and Ethan stood up straight and his neck craned in fear."Do you know what it means to speak your mind freely?!""Yes!"Christian turned around, went upstairs and then looked back at him coldly, "Your quarterly bonus will be deducted. You go back and think about what you did!""Yes!"Ethan was dumbfounded.**When Christian entered the bedroom, he saw Jessica packing her things."What are you doing?!"Jessica got up and smiled, "I was just about to tell you. I want to go home and stay tonight."Jared's dirt had gone viral faster than she expected. She figured the Wasin Group would do something this afternoon, and she would be home tonight just in time to report the results to her mother.Christian didn't object, and Jessica assumed he agreed.She didn't notice that Christian's face had become increasingly gloomy!
At dinner, Madam Bush asked Jessica how her blind date was."What do you think of her grandson?"Jessica drank a mouthful of soup and paused for a while. "Not good.""What was going on?"Madam Bush and Granny Maddox were good friends. Granny Maddox was kind, so Madam Bush thought that it would be great if Jessica married her grandson.Jessica pointed at her own head. "He is not all there...""Really?"Madam Bush was surprised. "I have seen his childhood photos. He looked handsome and excellent... It seems that we can't judge a person by his appearance..."Jessica burst into laughter.'He was handsome and excellent when he was a kid. After he grows up, he is fat and has low IQ and EQ. What happened to him during his puberty?'After dinner, when Jessica was about to go to bed upstairs, Binder called her."Miss Bush, are you available to come to Maddox Group?""It's late at night. What's the matter?"Ethan spoke haltingly, "It's about Mr. Maddox...""What happened to him?" J
Jessica stepped back subconsciously. She just came to deliver food...Feeling her resistance, Christian, with his eyes flashing a dark gleam, grasped her slender waist, his chest pressing firmly against hers."Stop... this... is your office..." Jessica was still holding the spoon."So what?"Primitive desire colored Christian's eyes. He held her body with one hand and pressed some button on the table with the other. The walls around abruptly turned dark.Today, a great change would happen in Wasin Group.There were two voices in Christian's mind. One of them understood why she wanted to go back to the Bush family, but the other was pissed off.The moment Christian gripped her waist, the other voice began resounding in the depth of his heart. 'Admit it. You miss her!'Without any hesitation, Christian leaned forward to gnaw her lips.**Early the next morning, Jessica opened her eyes.A ray of sunlight streamed through the curtain. She took a breath. How soundly she slept las
She was so embarrassed that she grabbed the quilt and stood there like a log.What was she going to wear?While she was trying to figure out what to do, Christian took two steps back, grabbed the phone on the table, and pressed a button.There was a knock on the door soon."Mr. Maddox!"Ethan greeted politely, but his head was slightly bowed.He was afraid of seeing something he shouldn't.Miss Bush went into Mr. Maddox's office last night and never came out, and Mr. Maddox was still in his night robe this morning. He did not have to think about what had happened last night."Go prepare a..."Halfway through the sentence, Christian turned back as if suddenly realizing something and asked the person inside, "What do you want to wear, casual clothes or professional clothes?"Awkward...How could she answer when he asked like that?!"Whatever!"She shouted out loud.Christian was pleased with the helplessness in the woman's voice."Prepare both sets and bring them over. And
Half an hour later.Jessica met the head of Silky Skin's brand department and the director who shot the commercial.Christian and Ethan showed up for a while and then stepped aside.The brand department explained the new product and its promotion concept in detail. The director also explained to Jessica about the current advertising plan.They want to take advantage of Jessica's popularity from Talent League and do linkage marketing, so the commercial was also linked to the image design of Talent League. Basically, she could do two commercials at the same time. And not only would she get two paychecks, but her popularity would double. There was no reason for her to disagree.*The next day, the filming of the commercial for Talent League started.The film crew specially set up an antique outdoor scene. Jessica had just come out of the dressing room with her makeup on when she saw Christian.He was followed by a group of people, and the head of Talent League was closest to him.
