When they were still married and living in Jardin Estate, she tried countless ways to get him to say something nice, but she never succeeded. Hearing such affectionate words from him now surprised Jessamine more than seeing the sun rising from the west.Jessamine put down the half-opened sheet mask and picked up the smartwatch again. "Mr. Holt, are you thinking not only about cuddling but also hoping to do something else?"This question seemed to strike Thaddeus right in the heart. He couldn't detect the sarcastic undertone in Jessamine's words. "Jessie, you don't want to?"For over four years, almost five by now, he had nearly forgotten what a joyful experience it was to be intimate with someone he loved. He could hardly even imagine it anymore.Jessamine silently cursed at that jerk of a man. "Go to sleep. You can have anything you want in your dreams."Thaddeus shamelessly persisted in getting some "welfare" for himself. "Jessie, when I reach Hajera, could I…""Let's see how y

Thomas paused for a moment before saying, "It was fine in the past, but now I don't want to live with you youngsters. It's troublesome."Thaddeus sensed that he was being disdained by Thomas once again. "Grandpa, it's no trouble at all. I promise I won't make any noise during your resting time. There shouldn't be any other issues, right?"Thomas held the phone, a slight smile forming at the corner of his lips. When he said that it was troublesome, he wasn't referring to himself; he was concerned that it might be troublesome for the younger folks.It wasn't easy for Thaddeus to get his wife back. Young people needed their space to get along, so he definitely wouldn't want to be the one to intrude."I'm not going. If you buy a new house, then I'll consider it."Thaddeus rubbed his forehead. Thomas was acting even more rebellious than his children, throwing a small tantrum at him."Grandpa, how about you stay at my place and I'll move out?"Thomas had resisted the strong temptati

Thaddeus lifted his phone and took a picture of the lounge to show her. "You know where it is. It's my office.""Did you not go home yesterday?"Thaddeus felt incredibly wronged. "Without you and the kids, the house doesn't feel like a home. I might as well stay at the office where at least I'll have work to keep me company."Jessamine smiled gently; hearing him say that really made him seem quite pitiful."Then… why aren't you wearing any clothes?"Thaddeus had completely forgotten that he wasn't wearing a shirt. When he saw her video call coming in, he got excited and answered right away, only to realize at that moment that he was still bare-chested.Not only did he not avoid it, but he deliberately moved the camera down a few inches and said lazily, "I forgot to pack my pajamas, so I don't have anything to wear to bed."Jessamine stared at the screen, her eyelids twitching. After not seeing him for a few years, he seemed to have gotten even leaner. Her eyes followed the defin

Over in Hajera, Jessamine had applied a professional makeup look and wore a blouse paired with a formal skirt. She exuded a powerful and confident professional demeanor from head to toe.She was driving her car to the company when her assistant, Judith, called."Jacinda, are you sure you'll be back today?"Jessamine had one earbud on, and her mouth parted slightly to reply, "I'm already on my way to the office."Judith, on the other end, sounded excited. "Jacinda, you're finally back! There's a designer scheduled for an interview this afternoon. Their resume mentions experience at a major company. You should personally oversee this one."When the red light changed, Jessamine gently pressed on the gas pedal. "Let's talk later, I'll be there soon."The company had been actively recruiting new talent recently, and quite a few new employees had come on board. The final interviews were conducted remotely by Jessamine. Lately, Judith had been organizing the schedule while also balanc

Thaddeus waved to call the waiter over and promptly ordered a plate of oysters. "Sure, you get to engage in relations, but what's the point? Can you really keep up? Can you last more than five minutes?"After Thaddeus finished speaking, he used the serving tongs to place a large oyster onto Corvus' plate."Guys don't resist aging. When you need a boost, you should take it!"Corvus laughed coldly. "I recall that you're only a year younger than me. Where does that sense of superiority come from?""We're not the same; you look exhausted and in need of a recharge."Corvus angrily swallowed the raw oyster. If someone was treating him to a meal, then why shouldn't he eat? As for that jerk, there was no way for him to unleash his energy even if he were to replenish it anyway.…Jessamine's gathering was a small luncheon since it was mid-day, and everyone had to return to work afterward, so no one drank alcohol. Some of the new colleagues were meeting for the first time, so the meal s

Jessamine entered, pulled out the executive chair and sat down. Then, she listened to Yvonne quietly.Over the years, Yvonne had become noticeably more haggard and no longer possessed the same spirit and enthusiasm she had four years ago. She now looked very much like a middle-aged professional worn down by time. She pushed aside some stray hair from her forehead and continued speaking."Holt Jewelry is well-known for treating its employees generously, but when it comes to matters related to you, Mr. Holt handles them in a way that's very..."She paused and was lost in a moment of reflection. Then, she uttered, "Harsh and ruthless."Yvonne used the words "harsh" and "ruthless" to describe the large-scale layoffs carried out by Holt Jewelry back in the day."Actually, it wasn't just the design department. People from other departments who spoke badly about you were also fired, and their termination compensation was handled strictly according to the law, without any extra payment gi

Jessamine couldn't figure out how Thaddeus had known all of this and had even managed to deal with those people one by one."How have you been? Has finding a job been going smoothly?" Jessamine asked Yvonne.Yvonne's eyes dimmed. "It went quite smoothly. After I left my job, I moved to Hajera. My child had some health issues, and since my close friend was here, she could help me look after my child too."The main reason was that the specialists at the hospital here were very knowledgeable about my child's condition. Therefore, we didn't have to travel back and forth for medical appointments."They had talked for so long that it had already gotten dark outside. The office area outside the room was quiet, and all the employees had left for the day.After finishing her drink, Yvonne stood up and threw the disposable paper cup into the trash can.Yvonne continued, "Sorry for taking up so much of your time. I had gone to the hospital this afternoon, which made me late for the interview.

However, Thaddeus took the opportunity to take credit. "Is that all?" "What else could there be? Even if I wanted to reward you with something else, you're not here," Jessamine retorted.This only heightened Thaddeus' desire to see Jessamine. He wanted to know what other rewards she could offer him. Yet, he also felt her words might just be casual, and she could end up giving him only a kiss!"Jessie, just give me two more days," Thaddeus said.He was counting down the days until his return. Apart from eating and sleeping, he devoted all his time to swiftly handling his work. He was eager to wrap up everything and get back to Jessamine.Upon hearing this, Jessamine couldn't resist teasing him over the phone. She said, "Don't rush, Mr. Holt. Your flights won't be canceled, so take care of your work first before coming back. After all, a CEO can't just abandon the company, right? Remember, work comes first!"Her last remark was a playful jab at Thaddeus.Back when she was at Jard
