Benji cursed, "You motherfucker! If you like someone, just tell us who it is. Don't give me that compatibility crap! I can't believe you're keeping your old friends in suspense. You have the absolute balls."Jerome smiled mysteriously.…Jessamine went to get some snacks. Ever since she became pregnant, she had been as ravenous as a wolf. She felt uncomfortable if she didn't eat anything every two hours.Sasha walked over to her with two drinks in her hand, wearing her trademark fake smile. "Jessie, Grandpa said he misses you. You should visit him when you're free one of these days," she said, holding out a cup of grape juice to Jessamine.Jessamine quietly ate the small cakes in her hand and nodded stoically. Sasha came over to talk to her of her own volition and even called her by her nickname. Jessamine knew that she was up to something. However, she was amused to see her false act of kindness.She thought Sasha would ask for her jewelry or a limited-edition bag. She alway
"Okay. Next Monday it is."As Jessamine and Noah talked, Shane shot her a sharp glance. "Jessie, didn't we agree to have dinner together next Monday?"Jessamine immediately understood Shane's intentions and asked, "Noah, do you mind if I bring a friend along?"Noah coughed. "I don't mind. Do you want a drink?" he asked.Jessamine smiled. Noah knew about her pregnancy, so he wouldn't let her drink alcohol. She looked around the bustling venue. She had just eaten her fill and wanted to leave, but staying behind for a drink wouldn't hurt.The three of them returned to the seat where Jessamine had been. Then, Noah brought her a drink. She thought he would bring her some juice, but it was water."Jessie, you can't drink too much juice. You have to control your sugar intake."Jessamine blushed slightly. Noah was pretty knowledgeable. He knew that pregnant women shouldn't have too much sugar.The three of them sat around a table. Noah also poured himself a glass of water. Jessamine gu
Thaddeus' eyes darkened. That was truly a coincidence. Anyone would be suspicious of that.However, the suspect just so happened to be his wife. They had lived together for three years, so he knew her capabilities more than anyone else.Thaddeus remembered those incoherent sketches she had drawn in the study. Not only did she waste a lot of paper, but she often mixed up those sketches in his documents, causing him to make a fool of himself during his meetings.With almost zero hesitation, Thaddeus replied, "It's not her." Everyone was a possible suspect, but not Jessamine.Jordan explained, "Mr. Holt. Actually, Mrs. Holt's designs aren't bad. She used to–"Then, he was interrupted.Benji was so wasted that he passed out. His assistant had to stagger over to them while holding his arm. Jordan hurriedly ran over to help carry Benji.There was a lounge suite on the top floor, so Thaddeus brought Benji there.…Sasha and Amy were whispering in a corner downstairs. "Have you seen
Thaddeus disagreed with Jordan's words. "The salary I give you seems to be twice that of Kieran's assistant. And you call yourself an ordinary person?"Jordan sputtered at his words. His salary was considered one of the best in his line of work. It was a bit arrogant of him to claim he was an ordinary citizen when he had such a hefty income. It was like a student who had gotten a good score on an exam and said it was no big deal.Thaddeus was always critical, and he cycled through his assistants every week until Jordan showed up. He had been his assistant ever since.It was rare for Thaddeus to find an assistant he was happy with. He cherished talented people. So, he generously offered Jordan a high salary to keep him around.With Jordan's salary, he could buy a big home on Trinity Road with no issue. He was miles better than most people.As the car moved steadily on the highway, Thaddeus leaned back in his chair and fell asleep. All he could think about was Jessamine's charming
Lana was feeling drowsy from her sleep. She looked at her phone, and it was almost 1:00 am. About five minutes later, Lana brought the keys and handed them to Thaddeus. She looked at the guest bedroom and gave a few words of advice. "Mr. Holt, it's easy to keep Mrs. Holt happy. Women are generally sensitive to what people say. You just need to coax her a little, and your fight will be over."Thomas really wanted grandchildren of his own and constantly called her to ask about it. Lana couldn't do anything about Thaddeus and Jessamine's spat. Both of them had their own opinions. She dared not give too much of her input because they would be annoyed. Thaddeus took the keys and nodded. "Sorry to bother you, Lana. Go back to sleep."Lana quickly went downstairs, not wanting to delay Thaddeus and Jessamine making up.Thaddeus inserted the key into the door to the guestroom and twisted it, unlocking it with ease.The fragrant scent in the room made him feel relaxed. Jessamine was us
Thaddeus and Jessamine answered their calls almost at the same time.Shane asked, "Jessie, who gave you that glass of juice at the table yesterday?"Jessamine had just woken up and was still groggy, so she simply hummed in response. Without waiting for her reply, Shane continued, "Something happened. I drank your fucking juice yesterday, and I ended up sleeping with a man."Jessamine stirred awake slightly. "It's normal for you to be sleeping with a man."For him, sleeping with a woman was the more shocking situation.Shane paused briefly and said, "You know the person I slept with."Jessamine remained silent, wondering who he slept with. She remembered that Sasha was the one who had given her that juice the day before. On an occasion like yesterday's, she would never accept a drink from someone she didn't trust. She didn't even notice that Shane drank it instead, and something really happened.Thinking of this, Jessamine felt a chill run down her spine.At this time, Thadd
Jessamine gasped, "Thaddeus, he's your uncle. Get your mind out of the gutter!"Thaddeus scoffed, "Get my mind out of the gutter? I'm a man. I know what other men think. Don't think their intentions are pure like what you're doing now."He easily spread her legs, and Jessamine instinctively closed them. "Get away!"Thaddeus chuckled, "Are you kidding me? You can't back out now. Jessie, relax. Don't refuse me. Just like how I entered your room, I can have you whenever I want."He gave her a fierce and intense kiss, not giving her a chance to breathe.Just then, the phone rang. Thaddeus impatiently declined the call with one hand and continued his ministrations. Within a minute, the phone rang again, seemingly not giving up until he answered the phone."G-get the phone." Jessamine's voice broke from the pleasure she was experiencing.Thaddeus paused for a moment, smiling maliciously. He picked up the phone next to the pillow and put it on speakerphone. "Hello? Who's this?"Jess
If the reporters could get footage of this scandal, they would be able to reach this month's performance target. They could even earn a significant bonus.Sasha was silent. She knew that Jessamine was the woman in the room, not Jaylen. Of course, she wouldn't tell the truth. Otherwise, those losers wouldn't do her bidding."Hold on." Sasha walked to the stairs to make a phone call. She wanted Thaddeus to end things with Jessamine in front of everyone.…Thaddeus was currently smoking a cigarette on the bed with a satisfied expression. As he listened to the running water in the bathroom, he felt quite pleased with how he performed in bed.Just then, the phone rang. Since Thaddeus was in a good mood, he answered the phone and asked politely, "What's the matter, Sasha?"His expression shifted when he heard what Sasha said on the phone.Jessamine walked out of the bathroom, wiping her hair dry. Water droplets covered her entire body.Her body was sore after their romp. And now, she
