Jessica got up a bit late the next morning.There was no one on the bed next to her. She didn't think it was strange, because her mother got up early every morning at this time.But what she found strange was that when she opened the door and went out to make some noise, she did not hear her mother calling her to eat breakfast.Jessica rubbed her hair and went downstairs, following the fragrance of food.There was various food on the table, at least six or seven kinds. Most importantly, there was buttered rice...It took a lot of time to make such a dish, and she could tell it was made by her mom just by its fragrance."Chris, have a try and see if it tastes like last time."Madam Bush looked at her well-behaved son-in-law opposite her with expectation in her eyes. "OK."Christian took a bite and swallowed it before he quickly took another bite, “It’s even tastier than last time!Madam Bush smiled proudly and said, "It was all made by me. How could it taste better this time?
"How could I cast a spell?"Jessica blushed and took the opportunity to slip away from him.But Christian acted faster and stopped her, "It's a love spell."Jessica was caught off guard and was kissed by him. She tried to find an opportunity to break free and questioned, "This is my home. Why are you so unscrupulous?""We are legally married. Why am I afraid?""..."**She hadn't fully recovered yet, so he kissed her for a while and then let go of her.He took her into his arms and watch her fall asleep soon.Christian remembered that on that talk show, a tarot card reader explained his card to him.He had said that he would experience an unrequited love.Thinking of the look in her eyes when she wasn't very concerned about him, Christian could hardly explain his deep feelings for her.The tarot card thing... was it really accurate?Last night, Jessica shared the bed with Madam Bush. Christian was alone in the guest room. He was worried that she would not feel well, and th
Jessica entered the TV station. Before she could say a few words with Gail, she saw Adam coming out of another room."What is he doing?" Jessica's eyes were cold.Gail curled her lips in dissatisfaction, "It's Paige! She thinks that the adventure show is practically hers, and she has begun to blatantly talk with the guests!""Is she going to invite Adam?""Yes," Gail nodded, "The reality show's scenarist-director team hopes that the guests come from all walks of life, not all idol stars, so that it will get more attention."Jessica's eyelashes quivered, and it seemed that Smith Group had begun to pave the way for whitewashing its negative public image.How could Jessica allow them to get their way?Adam saw them too. He smiled instantly, and walked towards Jessica, "Hey, Jess!""When I came, I asked about you. They said you were resting at home. How are you feeling? Are you injured?"Gail rolled her eyes and felt sick. She turned to avoid him."Isn't it better for me not to c
Jessica ignored Paige's jealous gaze and smiled confidently and humbly, "If you put Wade Maddox on the show, the ratings will definitely be guaranteed."Wade Maddox?Tanner's eyes lit up. Of course he was satisfied with Wade's popularity!"But Wade's agent is not easy to contact." Tanner hinted.Jessica smiled, "This is fine. I can handle it."Gail chuckled. It was his brother’s wife. Would Wade dare to say no?Tanner laughed out loud, "Okay, I’ll leave it to you, Jessica. I’m glad you are back!"Paige couldn't bear to listen anymore. She walked up anxiously, "Director, I have been preparing for the adventure show for so long, and I have contacted several guests. Why is she intervening?"There was someone behind Paige, but Jessica was not soft. She was more familiar with Wade and Adam. Tanner hesitated for a while before saying."The programs of the station have always been fair, and now it's only the preparatory stage. You should plan the show and compete with each other with
"Jessica, you're our TV station's mascot indeed! You'll be in charge of the adventure show so that I'll feel much more reassured!"Tanner smiled from the heart as if he had seen the guarantee of the ratings.Paige widened her eyes. 'Did I mishear?'Before the meeting, Tanner was instructed urgently that the program schedule would be changed and the adventure show would be shot and shown soon. He almost acquiesced in which Paige would take on the role as host of the adventure show. He held the meeting to reject Jessica and she would have no reason to refute.'Why... did he change his mind suddenly?'Not only Paige's team felt anxious and confused, but also Jessica's team felt confused.Gail patted Jessica. "Does he get muddled?""Deputy Director Tanner, if I take charge of the show, I won't adopt the previous plan. It's terrible. I need time to prepare new content for the show, but the time is limited, isn't it?"Tanner still smiled, "Don't worry. You will have enough time to pr
'Is this good?' Jessica imagined in her mind. ‘It would be quite a boast.’‘Wherever I am, with the marriage license with Christian’s name on it, it would feel like everything is under my control...''Hahaha... Emm... No...' Jessica shook her head.'It won’t last long. It would always be the best to rely on myself...' "You’d better get prepared."Christian's voice over the phone sounded chill and gloomy. Jessica retrieved her thoughts."Get prepared for what?""Grandma has urged me to announce our relationship several times. She will not wait for too long.""Has she? How come I don't know?" Every time Granny Maddox called her, they talked pleasantly, but she had never mentioned this to Jessica."She only pushes me." Christian's voice was subdued and sounded kind of helpless."In a few days, the president of Huatsing will hold a birthday party for his wife, Mrs. Edward. Grandma said she would bring you along to the party and you will meet everyone there." "Oh," Jessica re
The Bush family had long been faded...Adela thought that Jessica must be wearing a really good knock-off and wanted to embarrass her in public. But she couldn't find any suspicious flaws on the dress at all, so she could only keep silent now.Jessica felt a cold gaze in her neck, so she glanced back, only to find Adela staring at her with unconcealed unkindness.She rolled her eyes. Usually, she didn’t pay attention to luxuries. But she had known that she would meet Granny Maddox in the banquet today and that the high-society circles would soon know her relationship with Christian, so she had taken it more seriously and dressed up.She had chosen a white dress from her cloakroom, which looked low-key and minimalist. It was graceful but would not steal the limelight from the host, which was an appropriate choice for this occasion.But she didn’t notice the clothes in her cloakroom had always been changed to the latest fashions.Adela asked, "Have you met Mrs. Edward before?"She
Mrs. Edward knew that Jessica was a hostess with some popularity.Her son was still a university student, so he must be a few years younger than Jessica. But as long as Jessica didn’t mind, she intended to set them up.Nowadays, there were too few capable girls without sourness."Ivanka, you have to give up this idea! Jess is my granddaughter-in-law!" At this moment, a voice of disagreement came from the side.When everyone turned around, they saw Granny Maddox coming.The Maddox family stood at the top of the pyramid in the high-social circles. Once Granny Maddox arrived, everyone had to restrain themselves more.At the same time, they were all surprised. Although the two grandchildren of the Maddox family had a lot of love affairs, they had never heard that either of them was in a serious relationship."Your granddaughter-in-law?"Mrs. Edward couldn’t help shaking her head. If so, she had to give up. The old saying said: First come, first served. Granny Maddox grabbed Jessi
