Others chimed in, "That's right! We should find Lolly first, and then we can negotiate the terms. Everyone has their weak points. If we manage to locate her, we have already succeeded halfway."Thaddeus thought the idea was reasonable and immediately asked Jordan to draft the email."Greetings, Ms. Lolly. Holt Jewelry is hosting a charity gala next weekend, which will include a jewelry auction. The auction items are shown in the attached images. If you are interested, could you please share your contact details? We'll promptly mail you an admission ticket."As soon as the email was sent, he immediately summoned several employees from the company's IT department to monitor the situation. As soon as Lolly replied, they would immediately check her IP address.There was no one in the country that Thaddeus couldn't find.…After chatting with Melissa and Shane in their group chat, Jessamine closed their chat and checked her email. Among the unread emails, there was one that stood out

Amara carefully sat on the couch across from Thaddeus, assuming an elegant posture."Excuse me, Mr. Holt, were you looking for me?"Before she could finish, Thaddeus gave Jordan a look, then returned his attention to his phone.Amara's heart sank a little.After that, Jordan did all the talking. He asked her a few questions she couldn't understand before dismissing her. Throughout the entire process, Thaddeus didn't even say a word to her.Following that, Jordan interviewed the second person, the third person, until the fourteenth person using the same method."Mr. Holt, we've eliminated everyone on the list, and we still can't find Ms. Lolly. Could it be that the IP address provided by Rowan was inaccurate?"Thaddeus rubbed his temples, refusing to believe that there was actually someone within the country he couldn't find.A moment later, Thaddeus stood up, buttoned his suit, and walked out of the hotel.Once outside, he lit a cigarette and took out his phone to make a call.

Jessamine's words made Thaddeus feel like he was doused with a bucket of cold water. The woman before him no longer resembled the proper housewife she used to be.What a scumbag of a woman!What kind of scummy words was this woman spouting?"What are you playing at? Are you having fun with Malcolm? What makes him so special? If you're feeling lonely, you can always come to me. I can give you anything you want, be it money or company."He was confident that he wouldn't lose to Malcolm, whether in terms of financial ability or certain aspects of a man's skills.He pinned her hands above her head, completely taking control of her. Then, his slightly calloused hand roamed over the sensitive areas of her body, sparking arousal with every touch.He knew exactly how to tease her, making her succumb to him.Jessamine suddenly felt parched, and she instinctively swallowed."Thaddeus, please stop …"She frowned slightly and turned her head away to avoid his kiss.Her reaction instantly

She was Thaddeus' wife, or more precisely, just his bed partner. A tool for relieving desires in the silent hours of the night.Did she even have the right to expect him to give her a bouquet of flowers?Romantic acts were only expressed to the one you loved. And she clearly didn't deserve it.Jessamine had no intention of attending that birthday party.She had no intention of making a career in Holt Jewelry anyway. Besides, she would be leaving Zenville soon, so she didn't care who she loved.As the workday drew to a close, Amy sent a WhatsApp message with a photo attached.Jessamine clicked on the message and looked at the photo. It was a photo of a necklace with a fine platinum chain carrying an emerald pendant.Jessamine's heart lurched. She instantly recognized that necklace. It had belonged to her mother.It wasn't a valuable piece of jewelry, but Jessamine remembered her mother wearing it every day since she was a child. It was clearly something very important to her.A

Jessamine glanced at the entrance, and her heart immediately sank.Thaddeus actually showed up at Amy's birthday party.Jessamine was well aware that Thaddeus disliked these kinds of gatherings, especially those filled with women and rampant gossip. Yet, he actually showed up, proving how much he cherished Amy.Habits could change if you love someone. There was no point making a big deal out of it.Amy went to great lengths to get her to come. It turned out that she wanted her to see them announce their relationship.Although their divorce hadn't even been finalized, they were so eager to make their relationship public in front of the employees of Holt Jewelry.Wasn't it a bit too cruel to do that in her presence?During the three years of marriage, he forbade her from revealing their marital status at the company, yet he publicly announced his romantic relationship with Amy in front of all their colleagues.Was Thaddeus trying to repeatedly break her heart just because Amy had
