Chapter 851

Heather believed that the fundamental reason the situation had progressed to this point was because of Jessamine.When Jessamine was still the daughter-in-law of the Holt family, her relationship with Sasha was already strained. Considering this, it must be that her petty nature had resurfaced. She must have seized the opportunity for revenge and stopped Thaddeus from seeking help.Those business partners all acted out of respect for Thaddeus. They would not dare make rash moves if Thaddeus had not approved it. Otherwise, they might make a big mistake and cause trouble for themselves.Heather continued scolding, "Why aren't you saying anything? What do you mean by starting a company here and then luring my son to Hajera? Are you trying to take advantage of the Holt family so that you can benefit from it? Comment by Caitlyn Chin: so that you can benefit from itSlight change for better phrasing."Let me tell you, stop dreaming. The Holt's family isn't here to do charity. We aren'

After a brief moment of calm, a fresh wave of agitation arose within Heather. She then queried, "Are you really choosing her over me? Do you not want your mother anymore?"Thaddeus looked extremely impatient. His face was expressionless as he said, "I'm not taking sides. I'm just stating the facts. If you're not happy with this, you can distance yourself. Play your cards, go shopping—you don't lack spending money. So, don't make trouble for others."He clearly did not show his mother any respect.Heather cared a lot about her reputation. As the mother of the CEO of Holt Jewelry, she had been respectfully addressed as "Mrs. Holt Senior" over the years. If word about the incident that day got out, how would she be able to maintain her reputation in her group of wealthy friends?Heather glanced at the office, and she clenched her fists tightly . Jessamine had not said a single word. She had a mocking smile on her face as she watched Heather lose her temper.Comment by Caitlyn Chin: B

As the conversation continued, the security guard arrived and asked, "Excuse me, may I know what's happening here?"The employees of Kama Jewelry looked at each other, none of them daring to speak. They all returned to their desks, pretending to be busy with work. Although they were eager to hear the gossip about the CEO of Holt Jewelry, they knew it was better to not get involved. The more they knew, the worse off they could be. Thaddeus had a history of suing people into bankruptcy. Therefore, no one had the courage to speak a word about the incident today, ensuring it would remain a secret.Heather glanced into the room. Jessamine was still leaning against the desk, slowly sipping a cup of coffee. It became clear to Heather that she had no intention of dealing with her directly. She just wanted the security guard to handle the situation.Heather snorted and thought, "Who does that vixen think she is to rush me away?"She then said to the security guard, "There's no need for yo

"Jessie, I'm sorry, please disregard my mother's words as insignificant. I will arrange for her to go overseas immediately. Rest assured, I am committed to sending her away!" Jessamine didn't respond, giving him the cold shoulder.Thaddeus was most afraid of his partner ignoring him completely. As long as she was communicative, he could find ways to make her happy. However, if she stayed silent, it would become very difficult for him. "Jessie, why don't we head to Reverie Delights tonight? They just got a new shipment of fresh seafood this afternoon, so it's the best time to go. What kind of taste are you in the mood for? I'll ask the chef to make it."Jessamine locked the documents in the drawer and picked up the phone charger from the table. Thaddeus had already handed her her purse, and his courteous gesture eased some of her annoyance.However, she couldn't simply let this slide. Being blocked and scolded at work for no reason was ultimately due to his mother's influence.

Thaddeus chose the biggest piece of jackfruit, but he rejected the salesperson's offer to peel it for him. After he bought it, he made sure to put it in three bags for extra protection. His usual aversion to the scent of jackfruit was set aside to make his future wife happy. He went straight to the parking space and unlocked the car door for Jessamine to enter before joining her in the back seat. "Let me help you peel that, Jessie." Thaddeus adorned a set of disposable gloves and meticulously divided the jackfruit along its crease, unveiling its juicy, enticing golden meat. The car was instantly enveloped in the scent of jackfruit. Jessamine swallowed while recalling the time when she purchased a jackfruit crepe cake from Jardin Estate, but Thaddeus had found it unpleasant. He had insisted on making her eat it on the balcony and instantly cleaned up everything after she finished. The individual who had previously shown contempt for the jackfruit was now peeling jac

Thaddeus persistently shook his head and said, "Enjoy your meal. It's all for you." He struggled to come to terms with the flavor. He had already reached his limit for tolerating it without opening the windows or car doors. Getting him to eat it would be almost impossible.Jessamine let out a resigned sigh."Fine, but you're passing up something truly delicious."After she finished talking, she glanced over his right leg and observed some holes on the knee of his suit pants, as if they were caused by a sharp object piercing through. She then asked,"Does it hurt?"Thaddeus took a moment to realize that she was inquiring about his knee."It doesn't hurt."Following his response, he felt a sense of warmth within his heart.Thaddeus found himself inexplicably transforming into a lovesick young fool, resembling Jordan more and more with each passing day. Just a small gesture of concern from her would fill him with joy, causing him to savor the feeling for an extended period. "C

Thaddeus moved with speed, efficiently getting the beef brisket ready. After immersing it in cold water and blanching it, he then cooked it with the tomatoes in the stew pot. The way he cooked showed expertise and ease, as if he had made this dish numerous times. In the kitchen, he was occupied with various tasks, donning an apron, as Jessamine casually observed him from the countertop. After preparing the mash potatoes and prepping the greens, Thaddeus was ready for the beef brisket to finish cooking so he could stir-fry the vegetables and serve the meal. Once he washed his hands, he realized that Jessamine had been watching him attentively. "Jessie, are you hungry now?"Jessamine answered honestly,"I am not really hungry, but watching you cook is quite a pleasure."Thaddeus put his hands on his hips, looked at the apron he had on, and jokingly asked, "Interesting hobby you have there—a fascination with uniforms maybe?"Jessamine blushed slightly as he listened to his

"Have you checked and confirmed that it's a reputable and safe tour group?"Jordan assured confidently. "Mr. Holt, you can rest assured. This is a legitimate group. I found it through a trusted contact, so it's reliable.""When is the departure?""The day after tomorrow.""Handle the payment and paperwork. I'll send you the money.""Alright."It was now settled. Thaddeus believed it would be good for Heather to venture out and explore the world, enjoy the scenery, and capture some pictures. It would be preferable to prevent her from becoming irritable and causing problems at home due to her menopausal mood swings. The main reason was that he realized it was essential to help his sister change her perspective on the world. However, with the presence of Heather, all efforts would be fruitless.Jessamine grabbed a glass of water and settled next to Thaddeus on the couch. "Are you really planning to ask her to travel abroad?"Thaddeus smiled. "It may seem like I am being a cold-

However, what preoccupied Thaddeus' mind was that Jordan's wedding would be held in Zenville. He would have to go back if he wanted to attend it.Everyone finally had time off during the National Day holiday. He wanted to spend time with Jessamine and the kids. So, it would have been quite a dilemma if he couldn't be with her. Jessamine raised an eyebrow and inquired, "You were born and raised in Zenville. Even your home is in Zenville as well. Why can't you go back alone?"Thaddeus looked aggrieved. "The same goes for you. Why don't we go back together? We can stay at Jardin Estate." Jessamine snorted with laughter. "Mr. Holt, you're a bit clingy."Thaddeus didn't deny what she said. Now, he wanted to cling to Jessamine so that no one could drive him away from her.He pressed his forehead against hers and asked again, "Would you like to go back with me?"It was an event more than a month later. Jessamine didn't dare to guarantee she would have time for it now. After all, she

Thaddeus did well this time. The taste was pretty much as good as he had hoped for. He had mastered making the dish."Jessie, come sit here beside me," Thaddeus requested.Jessamine agreed and switched seats so that she and Thaddeus were sitting side by side.She helped herself to only one spoonful of mashed potatoes. She had already eaten two large pieces of jackfruit, so her calorie intake was over the limit. She needed to watch her figure."Is your knee still hurting?" Jessamine asked.Thaddeus had nearly forgotten about it until she brought it up. He had wanted her to take care of him on a whim earlier. But within a few minutes, he almost gave himself away.He stiffened his right leg and said, "It hurts a bit.""Do you have a first aid kit at home? Let me take a look. If there's a splinter that's gotten in, it needs to be extracted, and your wound must be disinfected. Otherwise, you might lose your leg," Jessamine said solemnly.Thaddeus raised an eyebrow and urged, "Let's
