"Mr. Holt, I've been tracking Burry over the past few days and noticed she goes to the hospital every two days. I'm unsure what's wrong with her health, but she doesn't look well and seems sick. Alex treats her well and always accompanies her during hospital visits," said the private detective."Is it possible to obtain the medical records?" Thaddeus asked.The detective hesitated and said, "I've tried to, but it's confidential.""Send over the name of the hospital where she received treatment," Thaddeus instructed.Shortly after hanging up the phone, the detective sent the name of what seemed to be a private hospital.Thaddeus sent the hospital's name to a friend from Frence whom he met while studying abroad. "Do you know anyone at this hospital? I need you to do me a favor."After sending the message, there was no reply for a long time. It was probably because his friend was busy, unlike a private detective who worked around the clock and was always ready to respond immediately

Thaddeus took out his phone, opened the photo album, and swiped through a few pictures sent by the detective to show Jessamine.Jessamine was astonished when she saw the photo for herself. She thought she looked quite similar to Burry, but she didn't expect them to look this similar. Their appearance and expressions were almost identical.At first glance, she almost thought that she was in the picture if it weren't for the unfamiliar surroundings.Jessamine believed it this time. Even without an expert's assessment, she trusted that the woman, who looked exactly like her, was indeed Noah's wife.With a worried expression, Jessamine asked, "Is she in a lot of danger right now?""Not necessarily. But it's very difficult for us to get close to her for real. Jessie…" Thaddeus said her name with a meaningful tone before continuing, "I suspect that Colin is not your biological father. I've taken hair samples from both of you for a DNA test, and the results should be available soon."Je

After dinner, Lucas led Thomas to the couch. "Great-grandpa, I have a gift for you."Layla took her small bag and said, "Great-grandpa, I prepared a gift for you too.""Oh?" Thomas asked with intrigue. He was filled with anticipation. He was very curious about what gifts these two children, who weren't even five years old, had prepared for an old man like him."Hurry. Take it out and show it to me," he said eagerly.Layla drew a portrait that included herself, Jessamine, Thaddeus, Lucas, and Thomas. Although the drawing didn't look very polished and the brushstrokes are somewhat childlike, it didn't affect the message the portrait conveyed."Great-grandpa, this is our family. I wanted to make you look a bit more handsome, but I haven't quite learned how to do that yet. Next time, I'll do better and make sure to draw you as the most handsome great-grandpa in the world," Layla promised.As Thomas grew older, his eyesight began to deteriorate. He held the painting up and examined it

"Hmm?"Jessamine stood up and followed him out the door, then headed upstairs.Jessamine let out a sigh of relief. She finally felt a bit more freedom to breathe. She had almost died of embarrassment just now, and Thaddeus clearly shared her sentiment.It was now just the two of them again.Thaddeus took out a ruby from the safe, the same one he had won at the exhibition last time. It was the gemstone that had made Layla quite envious for a while.When Thaddeus recalled it now, he thought it was quite interesting how fate worked. At that time, he and Layla were fighting over the gemstone, which was kind of unfair to her since he was much older. The funny thing was that they both wanted to give it to the same person.No matter what, the gemstone rightfully belonged to Jessamine.Jessamine looked at it for a long time before saying, "I like it. Thaddeus, when did you start the habit of collecting jewelry?"Jessamine was the one with this habit. Whenever the two of them traveled tog

Jessamine's tone carried a hint of a warning, but her voice sounded so charming that it seemed almost irresistible. She felt embarrassed just to even hear it.For over four years, she didn't find it particularly hard to endure her needs. She hadn't felt any intense needs, but at that moment, it completely overturned her self-perception.It might be as what the people online said—as women got older, their desires in that area also awakened. At 20, one was youthful and inexperienced; at 30, one turned vigorous and assertive; and at 40, one became powerful.She wasn't even 30 yet, so this shouldn't be happening.Jessamine's gaze was somewhat hazy. She was hesitant to lift her head and look at herself in the mirror. She didn't need to look at herself to know how flushed she must've looked, which made her feel quite embarrassed.Thaddeus finally stopped picking on her, and there was a hint of glee in his expression. "Jessie, are we still on good terms?"Jessamine felt like her mind wa

Thaddeus felt captivated by Jessamine's beauty, especially at this moment. He pushed the door open halfway and leaned against the doorframe, watching her go through her skincare routine. She poured unfamiliar liquids onto her palm and gently patted them onto her face bit by bit.Jessamine couldn't help but curiously ask, "How did you manage to prepare all of this?"Thaddeus crossed his arms over his chest and fixed his gaze on her face, seemingly unable to look away. "Since it's needed eventually, we might as well buy it sooner to avoid not having it when it's needed," he remarked casually.His last remark made Jessamine involuntarily recall their chat on the phone a few days ago. He had mentioned wanting to buy condoms in advance to avoid not having any when they needed them.Jessamine felt her rising temperature return right after she had just managed to bring it down.She quickly changed the subject, saying, "I remember you couldn't tell these skincare products apart. How did

The door clicked shut from the inside. Thaddeus stood outside the door with a silly smile on his face.His phone chimed with a notification tone, indicating a new message had come in. His classmate had finally replied to the message he sent at noon. He quickly opened the message chat.His classmate asked, "Why are you inquiring about that hospital?""I have someone's medical records I want to check. Do you know a way for me to do so?" Thaddeus inquired.The classmate's reply was prompt. "Send the name over. I will try."Thaddeus immediately sent Burry's name over. "Their name is Burry, and they've been visiting that hospital in recent days. Thanks!"Thaddeus sent the message and also included a photo of Burry. It was easier to look her up by providing more information.For the next few minutes, there was no new response.Jessamine came out of the bathroom and saw him looking lost in his thoughts while holding his phone. "Where did you obtain Colin's hair?"Thaddeus reached out

Thaddeus' analysis was so thorough and convincing that Jessamine momentarily felt as though it could've been the truth.Upon the mention of Colin, she became irritated. If it weren't for the trouble caused by the crazy women he attracted, Elizabeth wouldn't have encountered the accident and lost her life.Although Margaret had already received the punishment she deserved, Amy was still at large.Jessamine couldn't help but curse. "Colin, that scumbag. He deserves to go to hell first!"Thaddeus comforted her, saying, "I'll help you find your family members one by one."The two of them cuddled on the couch for a while. As the sun started to set, it began to get dark outside.Jessamine sat on his lap and leaned forward. "Let's go downstairs and take a look. I wonder if Grandpa can handle those two little troublemakers."Jessamine got ready to leave and changed into her high heels. When she got downstairs, she saw Thomas playing games with the children. It was a pleasant scene to wi

The next day, news articles about Jessamine winning the award were released and were shared in various group chats.Among the top ten in the competition, there were two winners from Crestia. The champion, of course, was Jessamine.Another award recipient who placed fifth was a designer from Holt Jewelry's design department. For a competition of this caliber, securing fifth place was quite an impressive achievement.Based on Jessamine's understanding of Holt Jewelry's bylaws, the person in fifth place was also eligible to receive a substantial bonus from the company.During this time, the entire design department at Holt Jewelry was celebrating this event.If the news was officially announced, media outlets would soon quickly reach out for interviews. As the leading jewelry company in the country, winning the award wasn't really a big deal. In fact, it would've been more surprising if they didn't win it.When everyone saw the winners' list, they also saw who the championship recip

Jessamine glanced at the calendar on the desk."Do your best to hold out longer. During the interview, I will clarify that I have no intention of joining any other company. We can use this opportunity to promote the Kama brand and make it clear that we are all competitors. Once they understand our position, they will probably stop calling us."Judith furrowed her brows. "Jacinda, if I'd known earlier, I would have scheduled the interview for today and had them come this afternoon!"Jessamine looked at her dirtily before saying, "It's almost noon, so let's go eat first. If you really don't want to answer those calls, you can ignore them for now."Judith's expression lit up with excitement. "Really? Then I'll disconnect the landline."A few seconds later, her expression changed and she looked defeated. "That won't do, Jacinda. If another call comes in, it could cause problems if we don't pick up."Jessamine shrugged. "If it's really important, they will call another number."Judit
