The presentation in front of the people of "Blush N Lush" during the meeting today went smoothly. She told Tammy that the presentation was emailed to her by someone, and her assistant looked confused before asking about the person who sent it. Later, Jessica had to reveal the truth that she had been living under the same roof as Tyler in front of her assistant.

Of course, Tammy was more than just shocked after hearing this revelation, she even demanded further explanation. However, Jessica acted as if she had pressed the mute button on her assistant, and that was why it appeared as if her assistant was only moving her lips but not a single word could be heard by Jessica. That was how she purposely ignored her assistant while she was busy preparing the presentation.

Her ideas explained in the presentation were accepted at the meeting, and Karl even gave her a thumbs-up. But she just rolled her eyes lazily at her boss, and she chose to leave her workplace on time t

    It had been a long time since Jessica last let Tyler go all the way with her. In fact, the two of them only did it twice, and after the second time they slept together, Jessica only used her hands or mouth to give pleasure to the man. The man then used his fingers to give her pleasure in return, but she knew that it would never be enough with just long fingers inside her. She needed something bigger and longer than the fingers, and there was only one thing that could be included in the criteria. It was not just Tyler who wanted it. Jessica wanted it too, but for some reason, she looked hesitant as she moved her hand to catch the hand that was still groping her lower body. “We shouldn't do it,” she sounded like she was pleading with him. “I'm pregnant now, and I'm worried something bad will happen to my baby if we do it.” That was the reason behind her hesitation, but Tyler chuckled before replying, “I know you're pregnant, but there's no rule against having sex d

    “What are you doing in front of my room?” Jessica asked coldly, but that was just a mask because she was actually surprised by her husband's appearance right in front of her room. “The house was very quiet when I just arrived, and I found no one here. I thought you would be home by now, but I couldn't find you anywhere either. I thought you were in your room, and I was about to knock on your door when you suddenly came out,” explained Noah. Jessica couldn't immediately reply after hearing her husband's explanation, but her heart felt like it was going to explode at this moment. 'Usually, he never bothered to be close to my room, but suddenly he looked for me in my room and was about to knock on the door? I can't imagine how he would react if he saw what his boyfriend and I were doing behind the closed door,' she thought to herself. Thankfully, her bed wasn't visible from the door frame, and that was why she was sure her husband didn't know what she was

  • Me, My Husband, and His Boyfriend    157. Are You Dead?

    Tyler had left the apartment this morning. He and his team booked the first flight to Paris this morning, and that's why he left without even having breakfast. He also didn't have time to cook for Jessica and Noah who stayed in the apartment, but Jessica said it was okay even if he didn't cook breakfast for her. Noah also didn't say anything even though Tyler didn't cook for him this morning—in fact, he hadn't said anything since last night. Jessica got the information from Tyler before he left the apartment this morning, “Noah was already asleep when I came into his room last night, and he's still sleeping now as if he didn't notice how I got out of bed.” Last night, Tyler pretended as if he had just returned to the apartment and didn't spend any time in Jessica's room. He and Jessica also did not continue their activities, and he also needed to use his hand to finish his business. After the business was done, he headed to Noah's bedroom, but he only f

    “Tell me what's wrong with you!” Firmly, Jessica forced the man to open his mouth instead of continuing to hide under the blanket. Right now, the blanket couldn't do anything to help him after Jessica mercilessly threw it on the floor, and Noah almost shrank under Jessica's sharp gaze. The brown-haired man couldn't hide anywhere, and he felt like the door was very far from his reach. Therefore, he could only let out a heavy sigh before bringing his body to sit on the bed. His back was against the headboard, and he didn't even look at the blonde woman. “I lost my job,” he said without looking at her. This time, it was Jessica who widened her blue eyes. "What?" She asked, unable to believe what she had just heard. “Are you talking about your work at Button Boss? But, how did you get fired? Didn't you just get a promotion even though you needed to be transferred to the Commercial Department?” Jessica almost couldn't believe what she had just hear

    'Why did I even say something like that to him? Why do I need to help him find a job?’ Jessica couldn't help but scold herself. Just to get Noah to eat breakfast, she needed to bribe the man like a child. However, the bribe worked because the man immediately agreed to eat this morning. It seemed like he was starving because he hadn't eaten since last night, and he looked like someone who hadn't eaten in years as the two of them sat across from each other at the dining table. Jessica even lost her appetite just by looking at the way her husband ate. It wasn't that she was full just by watching her husband eat, but she just didn't want to eat at all. That's why she didn't touch her breakfast at all and just stared at her husband flatly. Noah seemed uncomfortable with the stares, and he even stopped eating before asking his wife, “What's wrong? Why don't you eat your food?” “Nothing,” Jessica shook her head lazily while saying the answer. “I'm no

  • Me, My Husband, and His Boyfriend    160. Her New Assistant

    It was Monday, which meant it was Noah's first day working for EntertainMEN. When he was still working at Button Boss, he usually looked neat in various types of suits when he went to work. That was because Button Boss was a big company, and professionalism was a must in that company. The situation was different with the magazine company. Everyone dressed casually at work, and even though Noah had stupidly dressed neatly this morning before leaving his apartment, he eventually listened to his wife's advice and changed into casual clothes. Instead of wearing a suit, he wore a white polo top, while his long legs were wrapped tightly in dark blue jeans. 'He actually looks better in casual clothes. He is more like a human and not a robot who only has ambition,' Jessica thought to herself when she saw her husband's appearance. In the past, her heart would always beat fast every time she saw her husband dressed like that, but today, she didn't feel anything e

    "So, Noah will work as Jessica's assistant in the Creative Department, while Tammy will get a promotion as a new designer in the Design Department—ah, maybe it's quite surprising, but Tammy has been helping the Design Department in the last month when one of the designers there was on maternity leave, and surprisingly, she did a great job of impressing me. That is the reason why I decided to give her a new position in this company, and of course, her salary will also increase.” It was Karl who announced it after everyone in the Creative Department arrived at the company, including Jessica and Noah. When the two of them just entered the room, everyone's eyes fell on them. Sure enough, it wasn't natural for Noah to enter the building with his wife. In the past, the man would only drop his wife off in front of the building before saying goodbye, but the man never once entered the building. Questions were popping up in those people's heads, and it seemed li

    The Creative Department and Design Department were located in the west wing of the building, and they practically shared the spacious room even though a fairly large space existed between the two departments as a separator. The space was often called a lounge because there were several sofas along with tables and some snacks, and this was where employees usually gossiped about various things. No door or wall was separating the two departments, and that was why Jessica could reach Tammy's new work area in no time. In the Creative Department, Tammy's desk was in a corner that felt a bit dark and gloomy, but now her working site was near the center of her new department, and Jessica was quite satisfied with the arrangement. On the table was a card box filled with various items, and she knew that everything in the box belonged to Tammy. The younger woman must have just moved everything from her old desk to her new one, but she didn't have time to rearrange everything

    “Mom, are we really going to stay overnight at Grandma's house today?” Glancing in the rearview mirror to look into the back seat, Jessica could see how her son kept swinging his legs while asking the question. His cute movements only showed that the blonde boy was very excited to hear his mother's answer. But, this wasn't even the first time Shane had asked that question, and Jessica actually had answered the same question before. Thankfully, Jessica didn't get tired of hearing her son's excitement, and she smiled while shaking her head helplessly before answering, "We're going to have a sleepover at Grandma's house for real, but why are you so excited about that, Shane?" Jessica could keep glancing at the boy because she didn't need to focus on driving. But, the answer to her question came not from her son but from her daughter, "That's because Grandma promised us that she would tell us more stories about Grandpa, Mommy! We wonder if Grandpa is more like me or Shane!" "Of cou

    “What is 'proposing,' Mommy? Why do you keep saying that word?” Impatiently, Shane continued to pull the side of Jessica's shirt while asking the question. It was indeed the little boy who responded to Jessica even though the question was directed at Noah. But, that didn't upset the woman, and instead, she looked satisfied as she smiled at the boy before answering, “You'll have to ask your favorite Daddy about that word, Shane. He would know more than me about that word.” Jessica did direct her answer to her son, but her eyes glanced at Noah when she said her last sentence. Noah looked cornered, he even tried to look away from the mother and son pair. The artificial light around the area reflected on the man's forehead after he took off the cat head, and it looked glistening with sweat, either because of his cat costume or because of his nervousness. Jessica didn't know the reason, but that didn't stop her from staring intently at the man while waiting for his answer. "Proposin

    “So, where is your Daddy now? Did he run away after giving my son a stup—a funny task?” Gritting her teeth to suppress her annoyance, Jessica questioned her son, almost failing to restrain herself from uttering the word "stupid." However, it was not her son who responded. Instead, it was her daughter who suddenly tugged on her sleeve, causing her to turn towards the little girl. “Daddy didn't run away, Mom,” the little girl said, and Jessica thought she would continue to say something. That's why Jessica remained silent waiting for her daughter to explain what she had just said, but the little girl didn't say anything and just moved her little hands towards the pink backpack hanging on her back. Jessica didn't know what the girl was doing, but she could see how the girl unzipped her backpack before taking something out of it. To Jessica's surprise, the thing the girl had just taken out of her backpack was a camera. To be pr

  • Me, My Husband, and His Boyfriend    237. Are You Going to Propose?

    In the end, Jessica decided to give Noah a second chance. Yes, a second chance to be closer to her children.The reason behind her decision was that her children really liked Noah since the first time they met at the mall ice cream shop when she accompanied Tammy to buy a birthday present for her husband. It could be said that the ice cream succeeded in buying the kids' love, and they really liked spending time with the person who bought them the ice cream.Actually, that was not a bad thing, but Jessica was quite annoyed by the stubbornness of her children who kept calling Noah "daddy." It was clearly Noah's fault for casually confirming that he was indeed the twins' father, and Jessica continued to curse the man in her heart from that day on.She didn't even realize that a week had passed since her mother left the hospital and started living again in Noah's old apartment. Due to her mother's pleading, she ended up staying in that apartment as well rather

    “That… that's too cheesy! Aren't we going to buy food for my mother and children? We better leave now or they will eat us alive if they get too hungry," Jessica tried to change the topic of their conversation when she started to feel nervous because of what Noah had just said to her. She even averted her gaze to look at anything as long as it wasn't Noah's face, and that was why she didn't notice the hopeful expression on the man's face. "You just said that what I said was too cheesy, but you didn't say that you didn't believe what I said," Noah replied, ignoring the fact that Jessica was trying to change the topic of their conversation. Finally, Jessica could no longer avoid the man's face, and she once again looked at him with her pair of blue eyes. At this moment, she could finally see a glimmer of hope in the man's eyes. "To be honest, Tammy has told me everything related to you," Jessica finally said the truth.

    “Why didn't you remarry after we divorced five years ago?” Jessica's voice was finally heard in the car. "Is it because you still can't get over Tyler?"Suddenly, Noah sneered before replying, “Do you think I love that man so much that I can't replace him with someone else? I don't know if this information is useful for you or not, but the truth is that I didn't really love him when we were together.""You didn't really love him but you still wanted to be with him even though it meant betraying our marriage," Jessica answered sarcastically, and Noah looked stunned by her answer.For a moment, Noah could only stare at the blonde without being able to utter a word with his mouth, but then he took a deep breath before saying, “I believe love and guilt are two different things, and I differentiated them clearly when I was still with him. I betrayed our marriage because of my feelings of guilt, not because of my love for him.”Jessica was the one who d

    Jessica didn't know what to say after hearing Noah just say what was on his mind and heart, but for some reason, she felt familiar with the situation. The familiar feeling she felt in her heart made her anxious, her hands even moved to grip her jeans tightly as if asking for support from the blue fabric.“You probably think that my situation is similar to your children's situation, right?”Jessica felt her heart stop beating for a moment after hearing what Noah had just asked. It was actually impossible for her heart to stop beating while she was still alive, but she was truly surprised by the question. She finally understood why she felt anxious about Noah's story. That was because the story reminded her of her children.“I am the illegitimate child of that billionaire, and your children are the same even if their father is not a billionaire. They are very young now, but their lives are probably as full of drama as mine. Their lives will be full of lies a

  • Me, My Husband, and His Boyfriend    233. Noah's Dramatic Life

    After everything that happened to her five years ago, Jessica really didn't like surprises. Back then, many unexpected things happened to her, and none of them were pleasant surprises. That was why she felt traumatized by unexpected things, but today, she kept getting unexpected things since she came to the hospital to see her mother.First, a surprise came in the form of Noah, and second, it was in the form of the fact that her mother ended up living in Noah's old apartment. As if that wasn't enough, Noah then told her that he wanted to discuss a matter with her alone, and in the end, Jessica could only follow the man's lead.They were once again in Noah's car, and Jessica had fastened her seat belt. She prepared to look for something for her mother and her children's lunch, but she was puzzled because Noah did not start the car immediately.“Did you forget your wallet?” Confused, Jessica asked the man while looking at him.Her thinking was indee

    In fact, Jessica had no plans at all to get into her ex-husband's car. Even her ex-husband's appearance at the hospital was not her plan at all, but in the end, she could only surrender and agree to get into the vehicle.Her mother first sat in the second row of seats with the twins, and she had no choice but to take the passenger seat next to the driver's seat. On the way to her mother's house, Noah, her mother, and the twins continued to chat happily about everything, but Jessica remained silent. None of those people seemed to notice her, and that was why she was lost in thought during the journey.She was actually drowned by the fact that she was passing through a route that she used to travel in the past. She didn't know her mother's new address, but she was sure that every street the car took was familiar to her eyes. It brought a feeling of nostalgia that both warmed and chilled her heart.At first, she ignored the familiarity she felt, assuming that
