‘What the hell is going on? Wasn’t I just kissing Jeanette?’Damon was stunned. His mind was a mess. His glazed eyes prevented him from getting a grip over the situation before him. Was it a dream, or was it reality?The secretary was embarrassed. She looked guilty as if she had done something wrong. “Ms… Ms. Leighton. It’s not what it looks like.”She wanted to explain but wasn’t sure of what to say.Jeanette had seen everything. What more could she explain?Should she say she didn’t do it on purpose? That she was only here to take care of Damon, who wasn’t feeling well? That she really wasn’t here to fight with her, that it was only a misunderstanding?Even the secretary felt that an explanation like that was a joke. At the end of the day, she had failed to control herself. She should have pushed Damon away, but she didn’t. She was psychotic. She knew that this wasn’t right, yet she felt strangely hot and was unable to control herself.Jeanette was weeping. Tears trickled onto
The secretary was weeping. She was still unaware of Xavier’s evil plan. She simply couldn’t control her emotions.“I don’t know, either. Mr. Damon just… All of a sudden… I just… I couldn’t control it… Then Ms. Leighton appeared. Mr. Damon collapsed trying to run after Ms. Leighton, I… I don’t know anything…” The secretary was fumbling over her words incoherently. She couldn’t even speak clearly. All she could do was weep guiltily. Now, she believed that this was all her fault. She should have pushed Damon away.Xavier couldn’t understand her, either. “Fine, fine. You need to calm down. I can’t understand you at all. You can talk to me once you’ve calmed down.”However, the secretary continued weeping. “What should I do? Ms. Leighton has misunderstood us. If their relationship is destroyed because of me, I’ll be the biggest sinner in the world. You were right, Mr. Xavier. I’m a horrible woman. I failed to control my own feelings. If I had known, I would have left the Godfrey Group ag
Jeanette closed her eyes and took a deep breath. The air was still filled with Damon’s scent, like a familiar, calming fragrance.This room contained many wonderful memories she shared with Damon. Tiny bits and pieces of it played through her mind like a movie, drumming against her heart, over and over again. Her heart ached so much that she was numb from the pain.Those beautiful memories quickly transformed into an overwhelming sadness, rushing towards her like a flood, nearly drowning her h
“I’m sorry…” Jeanette stared at the little boy in bed. Tears streamed down her face, and she felt as if a knife had gone through her heart.‘Should I take Felix away now?’She didn’t know.She had never considered saving any money for herself after staying in the Godfrey household for so many years. Thus, in reality, she had less than $1,000 on her. Furthermore, she had poured most of her personal savings into Leighton Inc. to solve its capital turnover crisis, and she had been preoccupied
Jeanette’s thin and frail figure cast a long shadow against the street lamp.The night breeze was chilly. She shivered from the cold, but it wasn’t just her body. Her heart felt frozen too.The little man in her arms continued sleeping, lying against her shoulders and drooling.Jeanette wept. Her heart was a mess of complex emotions.Felix probably had no idea about the huge change that had happened in his family. He had no idea that his family was now broken and that he would no longer expe
Elias was taken aback. “Okay.”…When Elias arrived, he found Jeanette carrying Felix and standing at the convenience store entrance. Her frail figure trembled in the cold wind. The small luggage bag rested on her side, looking pathetic like a homeless animal.Elias’ heart ached. This was the first time he had ever seen Jeanette in such a wretched state.He quickly ran toward her, took off his jacket, and draped it over her frail frame. “Why are you standing at the entrance? It’s so cold o
After entering the same college as Damon with great difficulty, she had joined the same societies as Damon. Damon had joined the basketball team, so she signed up for the basketball team as well. Unfortunately, the basketball team did not accept women on their team. She had been disappointed for a very long time after their rejection.Later on, her wish had come true when she married Damon. She had insisted on staying with him, even when he neglected her and had countless rumors about him, which linked him to other women.Why would Jeanette, who was so in love with Damon, want a divorce all of a sudden? What on earth had happened?Jeanette wept, just like that. The chill in her eyes was intense.“It’s funny, isn’t it? But it’s true.” Jeanette turned to Elias. “I think, this time, my marriage really is at an end.”It took Elias a long time before he could return to his senses. “Are… Are you serious?”Jeanette nodded. “I’m dead serious. I’m exhausted, Elias. I don’t want to discuss
The night was chilly.Jeanette lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. Her mind was filled with memories of Damon, intertwined with the secretary, with their clothes in disarray.That scene seemed to be carved deeply into her mind. She couldn’t get rid of it, no matter how much she tried.She wondered what Damon was up to now. He was probably in the seaside villa, having sex with the sexy secretary, drunkenly indulging in his fantasies.He probably had no idea that she had pa
