The reporters asked a string of questions, their attentions focused on the bracelet on Jessamine's wrist.Holt Jewelry's seasonal products have always been infamous in the design world for being difficult to obtain. Whoever got their hands on Holt Jewelry's products could flaunt their fortune everywhere they went. But their products weren't so unique this time because an unknown designer was wearing them. That wasn't fair to everyone who wanted to get the jewelry pieces.Jessamine felt sweat forming on her palms as she faced the reporters. She wouldn't have worn that bracelet if she had known that these reporters would be so sharp. Thaddeus, a principled man who had been impartial to anyone, was now branded a man who pulled strings for his employees. Something like this could ruin his reputation in the industry.In contrast to Jessamine's nervousness, Thaddeus remained calm. He smiled, and his next actions shocked everyone present.Facing the cameras, he took Jessamine's hand a
Thaddeus looked at Jessamine standing next to him. She seemed to be in shock. He said slowly, "We married first and fell in love with each other over time."Everyone whispered, "This is so sweet. Mr. Holt's eyes are glued to Mrs. Holt."The reporter asked, "Mr. Holt, will you hold a wedding?"As soon as he asked the question, Jessamine looked at Thaddeus. She had kept this question to herself for a long time and dared not ask him about it. Now that the reporter was asking him about it, she looked at him expectantly for an answer.It had been her dream since she was a child to have a wedding with someone she loved. She found it funny that it would be with Thaddeus.Jessamine was a little nervous at this moment. She was overjoyed that he announced their marriage in front of so many people. If he was also planning a wedding…But soon, she convinced herself that it was wishful thinking. It was good enough that she could stand by his side in public as his wife. She needed to be satisf
Thaddeus cleared his throat. "I won't, Grandpa. You worry too much.""You think too highly of yourself. If you don't believe me, you can find out when you're in your thirties. Forget Jessie; even you will hate yourself then," Thomas scolded.Beads of sweat formed on Thaddeus' forehead. This was such a heavy topic. "Grandpa, I always exercise, so you have nothing to worry about."Thomas ignored Thaddeus' words and exclaimed, "Seize the moment! Don't come crying to me when you can't get it up in the future. I've warned you. "Your living environment and diet are a lot different than those of people in the past. The only things people do now are consume technology and work themselves ragged. It'll definitely affect your bodies."Thaddeus had a feeling that Thomas was brainwashing him. He reminded himself not to listen to his grandfather's nonsense. Even so, he believed some of Thomas' claims a little.However, now wasn't the time for this conversation. Many reporters were eagerly wa
Thaddeus looked down at Jessamine's clothes. She rarely wore black and mainly had light-colored clothing in her wardrobe. However, this dress looked like it had been tailor-made for her, with the right size in every contour. Although it looked good on her, it didn't suit her style."Where did you get this dress?" he asked with a frown.Jessamine dared not answer him. When she met his intense gaze, it scared her so much that she answered truthfully, "I wanted to see you downstairs, but I bumped into Noah at the elevator. He happened to have a lot of dresses with him, so he grabbed one of them for me to use."As expected, Thaddeus had a dark expression on his face, a sharp contrast to his warm expression during the press conference."Do you really think he happened to have some dresses?" Thaddeus questioned.The dresses were clearly tailor-made for her. How could a random dress fit her so well? She was so thin, but the dress perfectly matched every contour of her body. Even the si
"Which part of the dress is ruined? Let me see." Thaddeus got back to business and let Jessamine go after he was done kissing her.Jessamine's cheeks were flushed, and she hadn't recovered from the kiss. "It's in the box."She slowly opened the gift box, took out the dress, and handed it to Thaddeus.Thaddeus narrowed his eyes when he saw the scribbled note on the waistline. He took out his phone and called Jordan.Then, they heard the phone ringing outside the door. Jessamine felt embarrassed. Jordan had heard them kissing in the lounge. It was so embarrassing.A few moments later, Jordan opened the door and entered the lounge. "Mr. Holt, I need your signature for this document."Thaddeus took the document and placed it on the table. "I'll do that later. Go to the surveillance room and check the footage. Find out who has been to my office in the last 24 hours."He added, "You can skip the times when I'm in the office. Start checking the footage from the time I left work last
Women on TV would usually jump with joy when they received beautiful clothes and bags as gifts. However, Jessamine didn't seem interested in things like these and didn't react much to his gifts.Jessamine removed her makeup in the bathroom before going to the closet. She saw Thaddeus staring blankly at the room full of clothes.There was a special compartment in the closet for the latest formal dresses. But since Thaddeus never reminded her of them, she didn't notice them and thought they were just ordinary dresses."Come here, Jessie." Thaddeus waved her over.Jessamine walked over and let him bring her to the compartment.He picked up a white silk dress and placed it on her body to compare the sizes. "This dress is somewhat similar to the other one. You can wear this to replace it. If you really like that dress, I'll have another one made."Jessamine remained silent. She wasn't sad that the dress was ruined. She was sad that his efforts were wasted. He had the dress custom-made
Jessamine sighed as she looked at the row of clothes with their price tags still on. After this season, Thaddeus would dispose of them and get them replaced. It was such a pity.She changed back into the outfit she wore just now. She had to wait for the designer to send her a new set of clothes.Jessamine looked at Thaddeus, who followed her home for lunch and made her try on clothes. She asked, "Are you busy today?"They had been together since they announced their marriage at the press conference. Jessamine knew that Thaddeus had to deal with thousands of employees as the CEO of his company. He seemed to have made time for this.Thaddeus raised an eyebrow and replied, "I still haven't signed two documents. You have to drive later so I can read through them."Jessamine felt a little apologetic for wasting his time. He had to work on the road because of her."I can do that if you don't mind my subpar driving skills," she joked.Thaddeus chuckled. "I want you to drive because you
Sasha asked, "What do you mean by that? Don't tell me you guys are cutting ties for good."Tears rolled down Amy's cheeks as she replied, "Sasha, have you seen the news? Your brother announced his marriage and said he would hold a wedding with that woman. This is the end of the line for us."Sasha found a tidy place to put her gift box and comforted her, "Amy, you can't just back down now. Although Ted said he would hold a wedding, it didn't mean he had to marry Jessamine herself. You have to take her place and drive her out of Thaddeus' life for good. Got it?"Amy looked up at Sasha with red eyes as if she had found support. "Can I really do that?"Sasha said confidently, "Why not? You and my brother are childhood friends. Your childhood bond definitely trumps Jessamine's bond with Ted. She's just a mistress. We have to drive her out of the Holt family. Don't worry, I'm always on your side. You're the only sister-in-law I want."Amy gradually cheered up under Sasha's encouragemen
