Jessamine arrived at the CEO's office after she exited the elevator and walked a short distance. Apart from his office, only a large conference room was on this floor. When no one was having a meeting, the entire floor would be silent.Jessamine knocked on the door of the CEO's office. She pushed the door and entered the room when he told her to come in.Thaddeus was working at his desk. In addition to Jordan, Ariel Zeller, the company's HR manager, sat on the sofa in his office. She was handling her employment procedures. "Jessamine, please sign this salary increase agreement." Ariel handed Jessamine a contract.Jessamine took the contract, looking at it with suspicion. She paused when she saw the salary she would get.Ariel explained with a smile, "The winner of the design competition will have their salary doubled. It's a customary measure. Congratulations, Jessamine!"Jessamine thanked her in response.Ariel handed her the pen. "Go ahead and sign it. There are two copies, a

"Stay back. We should keep our distance at work," Jessamine said.Thaddeus chuckled. "Do you know what you look like you're doing?" After that, he whispered in her ear, "You look like you're seducing me."Jessamine felt tingles when his hot breath and words hit her ears. She instantly pulled her hand away from his chest. "Cut it out. People will notice us.""So what if they do? You're my lawfully wedded wife," Thaddeus stated.Jessamine felt her heart beat faster when he called her his wife. "Aren't you afraid of everyone finding out?""Why don't we make it public?" he suggested.Jessamine was pleased to hear his words, but the rational part of her reminded her that Amy was still in the picture. "I heard Amy broke her leg," Jessamine said.Thaddeus hummed in assent. "I found out three days ago. I've hired the best doctor for her." He sounded a bit impatient at the mention of Amy. He didn't want to talk about her at this time.At this point, Jessamine already knew the reason f

"I'm not working overtime. We're going home," Thaddeus said. He lowered his head and gave her another kiss. He became obsessed when he saw those ravaged lips of hers.Jessamine blushed from his teasing touches.Thaddeus finally let go of her. He returned to his desk to get his phone and made a call. "Jordan, come upstairs with your car keys."Jordan looked at the people from outside the door and replied awkwardly, "Mr. Holt, we're here."His voice came from outside the door. He could hear them even without the phone.Jessamine looked back, shocked to see the people waiting outside Thaddeus' office.Jordan stood nearby, along with Ariel, who was holding the documents. Jules Warren, a worker from the marketing department, was also there. All of them had amused expressions on their faces. They clearly saw everything that happened in the office just now.Jessamine covered her burning cheeks, wanting to hide away. On the other hand, Thaddeus didn't change his expression at all despit

Soon, Thaddeus' phone rang again.Jessamine glanced at Amy's name on the screen. She advised, "You better answer the phone."She knew Amy very well. If Thaddeus didn't answer her calls, he and Jessamine wouldn't have a peaceful dinner. Amy would keep calling until her phone ran out of battery.Thaddeus answered the phone after some hesitation.Jessamine didn't know what they were saying on the phone. However, she saw Thaddeus' expression turning darker, and she had a bad feeling. Sure enough, Thaddeus released her hand after hanging up the phone. "Jessie, you should head home for now. I have something urgent to deal with."Jessamine sucked in a harsh breath. "Did her heart condition act up again?""No. Don't worry about it. Just wait for me at home." Thaddeus rubbed the bridge of his nose, looking concerned.Jessamine couldn't figure out what could have made someone as calculative as he show such an expression."I'll call Benji to pick you up," Thaddeus said.Jordan parked t

Countless people mentioned Jessamine and Thaddeus in their anonymous comments."Jessamine, Mr. Holt, this is an official announcement, right? When is the wedding?" one commenter asked.Another one complimented them, "Jessamine and Mr. Holt, you two make a good couple. I'd like to give my respects!""Goodness, they make an amazing couple. I want to ask you something, Jessamine. You won't show our chat history to Mr. Holt, right?" someone asked worriedly.In just a short time, news about Jessamine's identity as Thaddeus' partner spread everywhere.Jessamine locked her phone and lay down on the bed. Looking at the empty bed beside her, she had a feeling Thaddeus wouldn't be home that night.…After a sleepless night, Thaddeus didn't return home as expected. Jessamine got out of bed and washed up as usual before going downstairs for breakfast.The morning news was playing on the TV in the living room, replaying a suicide incident yesterday evening. She instinctively spared the TV a

"Colin, do you even hear what you're saying right now?" Jessamine questioned."Jessie, I beg of you. Show Amy some mercy. I know it's unreasonable, but you and Amy are sisters. Amy can't live without Thaddeus. Please let her off," Colin begged.Jessamine snorted. "Colin, you should be talking to Amy instead of giving me some emotional plea bargaining. She got into trouble herself. No one forced her to die. "Even if you convince me to divorce Thaddeus, that depends on whether he approves it. Will Thaddeus want to marry her even if he divorces me?"Colin was silent for a few moments. Then, he said, "If you divorce Thaddeus first, that'll at least give Amy some hope to live."His words disgusted Jessamine so much that she wanted to puke out her food. "Colin Quilton, never call me again. Amy won't die. She can live without anyone by her side. She's just taking advantage of everyone's sympathy for her."After saying that, Jessamine hung up and blocked Colin's number. She searched her

After making this decision, Jessamine relaxed. She didn't feel tired even after walking around all day.Before returning home in the evening, she ordered some food and red wine from Benji's restaurant. She even bought a scented candle when she passed a shop on the street. Her biggest regret was not being able to drink. She could only watch Thaddeus drink.When Jessamine got home, she decorated the bedroom and living room to create a good atmosphere.Lana didn't know what she was up to, but when she saw Jessamine decorating the house grandly, she also started tidying up the place. She guessed Jessamine and Thaddeus' relationship was going to the next level. She wanted to sneak back to Holt Manor and tell Thomas the good news."Mrs. Holt, what's the occasion?" Lana asked.Jessamine was startled for a moment. "Lana, what do you think of having two children in this home?"Lana smiled heartily. "Oh, this home would become livelier. Since you've married Mr. Holt for three years, it's t

Jessamine didn't know if this ring gave her confidence, but she felt that Amy couldn't keep Thaddeus by her side no matter what she did. Jessamine believed that his heart was with her. She wasn't interested in his dispute with Amy.In the past, she felt discouraged because she thought she didn't have a place in his heart. But now that he loved her, she would never let him go.Lana sighed in relief at Jessamine's words.The scented candles were lit, and their flames flickered gently from the table. "Lana, sit down and have some food," Jessamine offered. After living together for so long, she never regarded Lana as a servant. However, Lana knew her place and never crossed her boundaries because of Thaddeus' and Jessamine's kindness toward her."Mrs. Holt, I'm not used to eating food like this. Why don't I chat with you instead?" Lana vaguely felt that Jessamine was different from before. Although she had many things on her mind, she had also let go of other things."Let's do t
