As the brothers bickered, Jeanette watched helplessly, finding no space to squeeze any word edgewise. She felt like this was how the brothers had always been since she joined the family. She had never seen the two calling a truce, even for a day. Damon never liked his little brother, while Xavier never stopped provoking the former for his own amusement.What a weird pair of siblings.Damon had made his desire obvious, but his brother showed no sign of leaving. Instead, he moaned. “You can’t ev

Damon’s face was a terrifying sight as he stood behind her.Jeanette was staring blankly at Xavier as he walked out of the door. Then, she felt her face turn by force. Damon was holding her cheeks in his hands, forcing her to look at him.Only then did Jeanette see the ashen look on Damon’s face. He looked very angry.“What are you staring at? Stop staring!” His tone was extremely stern, while his voice was full of rage.Jeanette shrunk her neck. “Damon, he’s your brother. Can’t you just get along with him?”Damon’s hands remained on her cheeks. Her question infuriated him even more, causing him to pinch her cheeks, hard.“Ow! That hurt.” She pursed her lips and massaged her cheeks grievously.“It’s your fault for saying stupid things like that. From now on, you’re not allowed to mention Xavier in front of me anymore and stay away from him. You are to keep a one-kilometer radius of distance from wherever he is. Do you understand?” Damon ordered. Jeanette widened her eyes dazed

Warm sunlight poured in from the window. Its golden light looked especially bright but could not melt Jeanette’s nervousness away. The secretary walked in and placed her fresh cup of coffee on the table.“Miss Leighton, Mr. Godfrey ordered this. He knows your tastes. This coffee isn’t bitter, I’ve added sugar.” Damon had personally selected this secretary to assist Jeanette in her work. Anyone approved by Damon would certainly be top-notch.The secretary placed the coffee on the table, allowing its fragrant aroma to waft into the air, placating Jeanette’s nervousness.She calmed down and smiled, feeling a sweetness in her heart.Even though Damon could not really be there at the office to keep her company at work, he would always support her behind the scenes and be with her. Jeanette’s nervousness greatly diminished when she understood this. She felt as if her heart had been filled with strength.She took a deep breath and tried her best to steady her emotions, then lifted her

Jeanette awkwardly waved her hand to stop the conversation. “Okay, okay. I need to get ready. You should leave. You’re going to disturb me if you stay here.”Xavier crossed his arms, refusing to leave.“Why are you always asking me to leave? Am I some kind of dreadful monster? I’m not leaving, sis. I’m going to sit on your office couch, and I won’t disturb you.”Xavier sat on the couch and stared at her. Jeanette shrugged. He had actually stopped talking, and she couldn’t be bothered to be concerned with him. She lowered her head and focused on her documents.Unbeknownst to Jeanette, as Xavier sat on the couch, he took out his phone and secretly took a picture of her, diligently at work, and set it as his phone’s screensaver.…The first meeting went very well. When Jeanette walked out of the meeting room, she felt extremely tense.She had been too nervous as many people had been watching her in the meeting room. Her palms had been sweating throughout the meeting. She had been m

Xavier put his cutlery down and sighed. “I know, sis. You hate me, just like my brother does. You don’t say it, but deep down, you don’t actually like me. Otherwise, why would you be so reluctant to have a simple meal with me?”“No, Xavier, I’ve never thought of it that way. I don’t…” Jeanette quickly said, guiltily, “I’m just in a rush to get back to the office…”Xavier waved his hand in grief. “You don’t have to comfort me, sis. I know I’ve never been likeable. My parents may act like they treasure me, but deep down, they like my older brother. I’m used to it.”Jeanette felt even more guilty. She suddenly felt as if she had hurt him.“Don’t be like this, Xavier. No one hates you. Oh, alright… I’ll stay here and eat with you until you’re done, okay?” Jeanette compromised, left with no choice.Xavier’s eyes lit up. “Really?”Jeanette nodded helplessly. “Yes, enjoy your meal.”“Oh, this is wonderful, sis. I knew it. You’re the nicest one to me, out of all the Godfreys.” Xavier se

“Cut!” Zeke cried out, holding his megaphone on set. “Next scene!”Mimi heaved a sigh of relief and accepted a glass of water from her assistant. She raised her head and gulped it all down.“You did so well, Mimi. See, Mr. Russo is such a strict director, yet he approved your performance in one take,” the assistant said with a smile.The assistant had been sweating for Mimi’s sake, thinking that Zeke would be hard on her because of what had happened. Surprisingly, Zeke had not used his position to stifle her, despite his anger.Mimi wiped her mouth. Her forehead was drenched in sweat. “You have no idea how nervous I was. Thank God we did it in one shot.”“Don’t worry, Mimi. You’ve always been a capable actress. So even a strict director like Mr. Russo would be happy with you,” the assistant said.Mimi wiped the sweat off her brow. “I can’t relax just yet. I have a few more scenes today.”The makeup artist had already rushed over to fix Mimi’s makeup and prepare her for the next

Xavier pouted and acted thoroughly aggrieved. “Are you angry, sis? I just wanted to get you to relax. I didn’t come here to annoy you. I was going to ask you to share the workload with me. I wanted to reduce your burden.”Xavier suddenly switched into a pitiful facade. Jeanette couldn’t bring herself to show her impatience at him. She sighed and replied exasperatedly. “Forget it. There’s no need. You’re not familiar with a lot of things in the company. I can deal with this myself.”“But, sis, this is your first day on the job too. Even if I’m not familiar, I’ll get familiar with it after a while, won’t I? What if Dad asks me what I’ve learned during my time here, and I can’t answer him? That would be embarrassing. What will I tell Dad then?” Xavier asked.Jeanette paused thoughtfully. “Alright. You can help me straighten out these documents.”She pointed at a stack of documents on her desk. “Review the contents in those documents, then give me a summary of the budget. Try to be qui

Damon’s mind was in a mess, yet Jeanette still hadn’t arrived at the hospital.Back at the office…It was pretty much the end of the working day by the time the secretary had managed to recover all of the numbers in the documents, reprinted them, and sent them to Jeanette’s office.Jeanette had been anxious all afternoon, and now, she could finally heave a sigh of relief.Xavier smiled as well. “Look, sis. We’ve found the numbers. You’re not angry anymore now, right? Come on, I’ll buy you dinner.”Jeanette shook her head exasperatedly. “How could I possibly have dinner now? Do you have any idea how much information in those documents was needed for tomorrow morning’s meeting? If you hadn’t carelessly destroyed it, I would have been nearly finished by now. And now, I have to go through the data needed for tomorrow morning’s meeting before leaving the office.”Xavier pouted. “Oh, I see… Well then, sis, how about we grab a bite to eat first? We can work overtime after dinner. It’s d
