Pregnant on the Cusp of Divorce Chapter 94
When Yvonne saw Jessamine, she pointed at her and told the gentleman, "It's this woman! How dare she come!"Jessamine had a bad feeling. Sure enough, this incident was aimed at her.Amy sat in her seat with bloodshot eyes. "Officer, that necklace was my mother's gift to me before she passed. I didn't expect it to go missing in the office."She added, "I believe the employees of Holt Jewelry are not so desperate! Please, help me find it. I'll do whatever it takes!"With that, she started sobbing bitterly, looking pitiful.The police offered a few consoling words as they had already scrutinized the office surveillance. The footage distinctly showed Jessamine as the sole visitor the previous night, captured in the act of opening Amy's drawer and retrieving a jewelry box.The evidence was undeniable."Miss, you're Jessamine, right? Could you kindly come with us for a moment?" A crowd had gathered, forming a tight ring of onlookers. Each gaze was filled with suspicion as they scrut

Jessamine calmly smiled and shifted her gaze to Amy with a hint of mockery. The night she returned the ring to its original place, she intended to expose Amy's true colors in front of Thaddeus. She wanted him to see the kind of person he had fallen for—a schemer willing to use her own sister's life to fuel jealousy and vengeance.Now, Jessamine wondered if Amy's facade of purity and goodness could withstand the revelation. She had been searching for the opportune moment, and ironically, Amy brought it upon herself.Amy felt a chilling stare from Jessamine, and under its weight, she couldn't bring herself to make eye contact."Officer, I took the items. Ms. Quilton had given me permission, though she might not admit it now," Jessamine's words reignited the uproar in the office, which had only just settled after a minute of uneasy silence."How is that possible? Are you suggesting that Ms. Quilton intentionally set you up? Who would use their own mother's keepsake for such a sc

Jessamine seemed very generous as she said, "After you, Ms. Quilton."Amy cleared her throat, looking calm, but in fact, she was very nervous."This ring is a design by Lolly from three years ago, a limited edition with only three pairs ever made. My boyfriend paid a hefty sum for it, and few can afford it in Zenville. You all know my boyfriend. Judge it for yourself," Amy said.Jessamine smirked. Could this be considered evidence?Amy was accustomed to wielding influence within the company. She was buoyed by her relationship with Thaddeus and found support from those eager to flatter her."We absolutely believe in Ms. Quilton. After all, her boyfriend is our CEO. Besides Mr. Holt, who in Zenville could afford a globally limited edition of three pairs of wedding rings?""In terms of financial capability, no one can match Mr. Holt.""Jessamine, just admit it. Stealing a necklace is nothing. Return it, and you can leave this building today. People will forget in a few months. Accu

The officers were confused as they looked at the three of them. It was as if they had just witnessed a real-life drama where the self-proclaimed future wife of the CEO turned out to be fake, while the "thief" turned out to be the wife.However, the officers had no right to ask about the personal lives of these wealthy individuals. They were just here for work.The officer suppressed his curiosity as he asked Amy, "Your mother's keepsake …"Thaddeus cut him off. "What keepsake? Amy, isn't your mother at home?"The police needed no further inquiries. It was, at its core, a domestic dispute between a mistress and the legal wife, a delicate matter, especially considering it involved the CEO of Holt Jewelry. It was best left for them to resolve internally."If you have no further questions, we'll get back to work," one of the police officers said.Thaddeus nodded politely, "Thank you."As the police prepared to leave, they cast a sympathetic glance at Jessamine. "Ms. Patton, take c

"Don't ever do such stupid tricks again. I will not allow anyone to interfere with my personal affairs with her. If anyone tries to harm Mrs. Holt again … Well, you know me."Amy's heart sank at "Mrs. Holt".They had already signed the divorce papers, yet he was still addressing her as Mrs. Holt and defending her. Then, what did he take Amy for?"Ted, are you still going to marry me?" she couldn't help but ask.Thaddeus looked up coldly. "The law here doesn't allow a second marriage."That single sentence crushed all her expectations, trampling them beneath his feet. She had returned with a goal in mind, and before returning, he had eagerly anticipated her arrival.She had believed that enduring the hardships of a long-distance relationship would finally pay off. She had kept her recovering health a secret, hoping it would prompt him to care more for her and hasten the divorce from Jessamine.But now, how could he utter such heartless words?Her tears began to flow like a f

"Don't investigate today's incident further. It will affect her reputation."Aware of the resentment in her heart, he took the initiative to address it. His tone was calm, and for him, it was almost a request.Jessamine tightened her fist. "I have no right to complain either. You won't take my side, so what's the point of saying all this?"Thaddeus gently lifted her chin, bringing her closer until they could feel each other's breath."Jessie, I bought a small island in Dorne for you. How about we name it 'Jess'?"Jessamine laughed briefly, a smile more bitter than tears. In his eyes, the grievances and unfair treatment she endured could be compensated with money."Thaddeus, what will you give me the next time Amy sends someone to kill me? A mansion or a private jet?"To preserve Amy's image in front of everyone, he spared no expense to buy an island, attempting to silence her. Jessamine had always believed that despite his ruthless personality, he was at least fair.Now, it s

The temperature in the office abruptly rose, and the air became thin. Footsteps approached from outside, and Jessamine's heart raced. She was torn between wanting to leave and feeling rooted to the spot."Thaddeus, someone's coming."Thaddeus lifted his eyes, and his warm lips once again found their place on her neck, continuing their descent."It's Jordan."In the brief pauses between kisses, he managed to utter those words, his voice husky and his eyes filled with desire.Jessamine struggled for a moment, but her hands were easily pinned above her head. The kisses were intense, and the fake marriage they maintained seemed to disappear in those moments.When his eyes met hers, it felt like an emotional connection rooted deep within.With a sense of despair, Jessamine closed her eyes, contemplating how she could escape from this life. Their marriage felt like a union of three people.Her top was removed in disarray. She waited for him to finish, realizing that resistance was

Thaddeus looked up, making Jessamine tremble in fear. "Did you go to the exhibition yesterday?" he asked. Jessamine nodded stiffly. Shane told her that the exhibition had some fine jewelry pieces, so she went there out of curiosity.Thaddeus massaged the bridge of his nose. He couldn't believe Shane was involved again. "Can't you have a normal friend?"Jessamine felt her tense heart relax at his words. He didn't mention anything about her trip to the exhibition. Thaddeus simply argued that he didn't like Jessamine interacting with Shane. It meant he didn't think anything of their friendship, so she was still in the clear.She grinned slyly and said, "We're all pretty normal. You should take a long, hard look at yourself, Mr. Holt."Afterward, she walked out of the door regardless of how he felt about her comment.Jordan glanced at Jessamine, touching his nose awkwardly. He thought that Thaddeus was truly a bastard. In the bathroom, Jessamine bumped into Amy, who was touchi
