The plagiarism case continued to spread on the company's forums, and a word soon trended, "the wrong document." Everyone used this phrase as an allusion to plagiarism; some people even posted anonymously to mock the situation. "Maybe I'll send the wrong document one day to see if I can come out on top of the design department," they mocked.Jessamine admired Amy's boldness. She was acting like nothing had happened. After just one night, she returned to her proud self, looking down at everyone as if they were inferior. She treated her colleagues as if she was the boss' wife.Most of the people in the design department were just minor people. They knew about her unusual relationship with Thaddeus, so no one dared to provoke her. Although they were unhappy, they still treated her like a queen.If it weren't for Thaddeus not making an official announcement, everyone would've called her "Mrs. Holt."As for the statement, it didn't matter if everyone else believed Amy. Amy was sure n

Amy stared at Jessamine's workstation, hatred welling in her chest.That night, Jessamine got off work as usual. When she walked past Thaddeus' parking space in the underground parking lot, she saw Amy's car parked there. Meanwhile, Amy's usual parking space was empty.That woman might as well wear a sign saying she was the CEO's lady. She seemed so afraid that others wouldn't know her connection with Thaddeus. Her shameless attitude made Jessamine speechless.Jessamine slowly drove out of the underground parking lot. While waiting for the red light, she called Lana and asked her to make some soup and side dishes. Now that the weather was getting hotter, her appetite had changed. She just wanted something light to relieve the heat.She had just hung up the phone when she heard noises behind the car. She lowered the windows and looked back. Jaxon and Leo pulled the driver behind her out of his car and threw him on the side of the road. Then, they beat him up.She was startled by

That was Thaddeus' hand. He had explored every part of her body with his hand, but now he was holding another person's hand.Jessamine curled up into the blankets. She tightly clutched the blankets, finding it hard to breathe.Thaddeus had easily made her heart flutter the day before, but now, he had broken her heart just as easily. He had already left for Zenville without telling her, but she was foolishly thinking about whether he could get used to the hotel's shampoo.Amy knew he was returning to Zenville, but Jessamine had to look at other people's tweets to find out where he was, even though she was his wife.The countless promises he had made to keep her with him were still ringing in Jessamine's ears. He said Amy wouldn't be part of their lives, and he would handle things with Amy. However, that wasn't the case.Jessamine burst out laughing as she cried. How could she believe a man's words in bed? She was the only fool who believed such nonsense.She sat on the bedside and

After some thought, Jessamine asked Jaxon for details, so she found somewhere private and called him. "Jaxon, do you know the details about Amy's car accident?"Jaxon explained quickly, "M-Ms. Patton, Leo and I were at the police station all night last night and were only released on bail in the morning. I'm not very sure what happened to her. Don't worry. She deserves what happened to her."Jessamine noticed the implications of his words, and a terrifying thought crossed her mind. Since Jaxon and Leo were with the police all night, they couldn't have been the ones behind the accident. However, Noah's gentle face crossed her mind, shocking her.Coincidentally, when Jessamine hung up the phone, she saw Noah walking out of the building. He wore a neat suit, and the glasses on his face gently reflected the sun's light."What are you doing here, Jessie?" Noah strolled over to her. As Jessamine stared at his glasses, an idea came to her. She had never seen his eyes. His gaze would be

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

Chapter 188

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
