Colin had just finished brushing his teeth. Holding his wash basin, he froze in surprise. He hadn't expected anyone to visit him in prison, especially since his only remaining family members were Jessamine and Amy.However, Jessamine had already cut ties with him, so Colin believed Amy was his only potential visitor. Moreover, his recent good performance during the prison labor had earned him a chance to make a phone call. From that, he also learned that Amy had safely returned home!With these thoughts in mind, Colin hurriedly set down his toiletries and followed the officer out. During their short journey, he had already prepared countless heartfelt words that he wanted to say to Amy.Outside the visiting room, Thaddeus stood there in a dark suit that exuded an aura of cold nobility.When Colin came out with joy, their eyes met through the glass.Thaddeus' gaze was cold and probing. His commanding presence also made Colin's heart skip a beat."Thaddeus, what brings you here?" C

Jessamine's heart skipped a beat. As her gaze shifted upward, she saw Noah's gentle and harmless face the very next moment.His gaze behind his glasses betrayed no emotion as he took long strides to her bedside.Jessamine heard her heart thump loudly. The person who kidnapped her turned out to be Noah!Who would have thought that a person who looked so gentle could do something so crazy?Jessamine sat up quickly and shrunk back until she was pressed against the headboard. "Noah, what are you trying to do?"Her expression was filled with fear. She was unable to imagine what Noah might do to her next. Reminded of his previous confusing behavior, she realized she couldn't figure this person out at all.Noah nudged his glasses up higher on the bridge of his nose and spoke in a gentle voice, "Jessie, don't be afraid. I won't do anything to you."How could Jessamine not be afraid? Any woman would be scared in such a situation. She had been mysteriously drugged on her way home and take

Xander emerged from the elevator just in time to catch Jessamine as she collapsed.Jessamine had promised to come home for dinner, but Gloria waited all night without any sign of her. When Jessamine didn't answer her calls, Grandma immediately called Xander to find her.When Xander arrived at Jessamine's office building, he saw her car parked in the lot. The car's door was opened, but there was no sign of her. He sensed something was wrong and quickly contacted the building security to check the surveillance footage, tracking her down to this spot.Xander was shocked. In Hajera, no one would dare mess with his family. He wouldn't let whoever took Jessamine off the hook easily."Jessie, Jessie, are you okay?"As Xander tried to wake Jessamine, the suite door swung open. Xander's eyes burned with rage. If looks could kill, he would've done it. When he saw Noah step out, his eyes narrowed.Darn it! It was another one of the Holts!Noah appeared calm, though he still looked somewhat

Jessamine felt a wave of sadness, and tears welled up in her eyes. She was like a child who had been wronged and finally saw her parents.Now, Jessamine couldn't deny that Xander was her pillar, providing a sense of security that no one else could replace.Different from the feelings brought by Thaddeus, this familial reliance made Jessamine feel grounded and at ease. She'd have unconditional support and trust, no matter what happened. Xander's brow twitched. He reached over to help Jessamine adjust her bangs."You're safe. Don't worry," Xander reassured Jessamine.Jessamine knew she was safe; nowhere else made her feel safer than being with Xander.Men might leave her or betray her, but her family would do none of that.Jessamine shifted in bed and sat up against the headboard."Xander, I was supposed to go home after work. In the parking lot, I ran into Noah. He's a lunatic —"Xander cut Jessamine off, not wanting to hear the rest. His beloved cousin had almost been violate

While they chatted, Xander entered with the breakfast his assistant bought.Jessamine heard the door open and whispered softly, "Let's talk later. Xander's back."With that said, she promptly hung up the phone.Thaddeus had much more to say but missed his chance. Collapsing back into bed, he breathed in the scent of the room, catching a hint of Jessamine's fragrance. After comforting himself for a moment, he got up to wash up.When Thaddeus arrived at the office, he immediately started making calls to get everything set up. Once it was all arranged, he instructed Jordan to take Jessamine's and Colin's hair samples to the hospital for a paternity test. He also stashed a copy of Colin's sample in a drawer, ready for comparison once they received the materials from Frence.He suspected there might be undisclosed truths about Jessamine's background. As for Colin, he didn't trust anything he said.Thaddeus strongly suspected that Burry, now in Frence, was related to Jessamine by blood
