Jamie watched as Ben's face darkened the instant he saw the man approaching them. Her suspicions were immediately aroused.“I’m his personal secretary,” Jamie said with a calm smile, deliberately clarifying the relationship. The implication was clear that he shouldn’t falsely assume a close relationship.Noah Lucas raised an eyebrow, a look of mild surprise crossing his face. “Oh? My brother hasn’t won you over yet? My apologies! I thought you two were already…”“This has nothing to do with you,” Ben interrupted coldly.Noah paused, his hands casually shoved into his pockets. The two men locked eyes, exchanging no words, yet the air between them grew thick with tension, brimming with unspoken hostility.Noah’s smirk dimmed slightly as he leaned back. “I can’t compare to you. Dad poured his heart into trying to pull you into the company, but you stuck to your guns and insisted on being a lawyer. That kind of stubbornness? I could never match it.”His words feigned admiration, but

Mr. Lucas never truly had the best interests of either of his sons at heart. Forcing them into an uncomfortable relationship, knowing their complicated dynamic, was more like raising fighting insects in a jar to see which one would survive.Noah’s expression darkened slightly as he looked at Ben’s aloof demeanor. He curled his lips into a mocking smile. “I’ve always hated that superior attitude of yours. You’re only where you are because you were born lucky.”“If you’re finished, you can leave,” Ben said flatly, uninterested in listening to Noah’s ramblings.Noah let out a cold laugh. “You used to take everything for granted. But now that I’m here, you don’t still think Lucas Corporation is entirely under your control, do you? Let’s see how things go.”Ben watched him leave with icy eyes.When the office door swung open, Jamie stepped back, her expression cool and detached, clearly unwilling to engage with Noah. But Noah, being someone who never understood boundaries, did not take

Chapter 1613

Jamie couldn’t bear to leave so easily. “I’m not leaving. Don’t try to push me away.”Ben stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, his silhouette obscured by the interplay of light and shadow. His expression was unreadable but carried an unexpected gentleness. “Charlie will be out of school soon. If he doesn’t see you, he’ll get anxious.”Jamie felt as though she had been struck silent. Reluctantly, she left after ensuring Ben’s assistant promised to keep an eye on him. Only then did she reluctantly head out to pick Charlie up.When they got home, Charlie wandered through the house, searching for someone. Disappointed, he came back and asked, “Mom, isn’t Uncle Ben coming over today?”“Uncle Ben is tied up with something right now. He’ll probably come by later. Can you wait for a little while longer, Charlie?”Lately, Ben had been a constant presence, joining Jamie to pick Charlie up from school and often staying for dinner. Charlie had grown used to his company. Still, Charlie was

There was praise, of course, but also criticism. However, the damage was undeniably minimized. Since he was no longer a lawyer, the issue of lawyers not being allowed to engage in commerce was no longer a point of contention.Meanwhile, the demolition of the old district's buildings had finally begun. Unexpectedly, there was also progress in the investigation into who had been orchestrating Daniel’s provocations. “Daniel’s been spotted frequenting a casino. Someone saw him withdraw a large amount of cash. I suspect the person behind all this didn’t use digital transfers. They dealt in cash,” Jamie speculated during a team meeting.The assistant nodded silently, considering the possibility. Then he turned and found Ben’s sharp gaze fixed on him. Ben pointed a finger directly at him, his expression making it clear what he wanted. The assistant froze, bewildered. “Me again?”Under Ben’s authoritative glare, the assistant could only nod reluctantly. As he lamented his bad luck,

“Hold on, I have something to announce,” Noah suddenly raised his hand. “I’ve already secured the bid for South Haven District.”Everyone froze in surprise. Even Jamie couldn’t hide the flicker of astonishment in her eyes. The bid for South Haven District was already locked down?Hearing the murmurs in the room, Noah propped his elbow on the table, resting his chin on his hand. He tilted his head back with a deliberate smirk. “Oh, you didn’t know? Looks like I forgot to mention it. But everyone should know about something this significant. Don’t you think so?”As he spoke, his gaze shifted directly to Ben. The tension in the room thickened instantly, suffocating enough to make everyone want to bolt for the door.Jamie’s concern grew as she glanced at Ben.“Then move on to the next project. South Haven District isn’t the only one project that the company is working on,” Ben replied smoothly, his tone calm and composed, without a hint of hesitation.Noah’s smile faltered, his exp

It was all just teasing. No one truly meant it. After all, a woman accompanying a man to such occasions wasn’t necessarily a future wife, She could just as easily be a passing fancy. After all, wasn’t that what men often did? The laughter grated on Jamie, her brows knitting tightly together. She found it revolting. Then Ben’s cold, clear voice sliced through the room, abruptly silencing the laughter. “Actually, there is someone.” The room froze. It was as if someone had yanked the strings of a puppet show, and all the performers had stopped mid-act. “Cough… cough, my mistake,” stammered the man who had been leading the jokes, his voice cracking as he desperately tried to recover. “I didn’t realize this young lady held such a position.” Jamie, naturally, didn’t care for their opinions, but Ben’s quiet, unwavering defense warmed her heart. Though it was a dinner meeting under the guise of drinks, the reality was clear that it was all business. And Ben, with his positio

Chapter 1617

In a company as large as theirs, there weren’t many people dressed as sharply as that. At most, there were only two. Jamie guessed the figure outside the door wasn’t Noah. With a faint smile to her assistant, she said, “It’s probably Ben. After all, I’m his secretary. It’s only right to support my boss.” The assistant nodded, thinking her reasoning made sense. Outside, Ben raised an eyebrow, the corners of his lips curling into a satisfied smile before walking away. After the distinct glimpse of his suit disappeared, Jamie’s smile deepened. Saying something like that to make him happy once in a while wouldn’t hurt. *In the blink of an eye, Charlie had already been attending kindergarten for over half a month. Jamie called his teacher, Miss Georgia, to ask about his behavior at school, only to be met with glowing praise. “Charlie’s mom, you have no idea. Charlie is the easiest child I’ve ever had to look after. He’s just wonderful,” Miss Georgia gushed. Hear

Charlie had the smallest rolling pin. The three of them sat around the table, earnestly rolling out dough for ravioli. Charlie poured all his energy into it, his little hands pressing down with all his might.“Charlie, you don’t need to push so hard,” Jamie said, her tone warm and encouraging. “Watch how Mom does it, okay?”She guided him patiently, her gentle expression lighting up the moment. Ben, seated across from her, paused in his work to watch the scene, captivated without even realizing it. Jamie, oblivious to his gaze, focused on teaching Charlie.After some practice, Charlie began to get the hang of it. They rolled out the sheets of dough, cut them into squares, dusted them with flour, and set them aside for filling later.“That should be enough,” Jamie said as she stood up, stretching her back after being hunched over the table.Ben reached over to her without warning. She instinctively dodged, but he pressed her gently back into place. “Hold still. You’ve got some fl

Charlie needed to ease into seeing Ben as his father figure. That way, when the truth came out, it would be easier for him to accept. Yet, guilt still weighed heavily on Jamie.“Today, when he asked me, I almost told him. I didn’t even think about how to explain later why his dad didn’t acknowledge him,” she said, her voice tinged with remorse.Ben gently pulled her into his arms, letting her rest against him for comfort. “If anyone should feel guilty, it’s me, not you.”Sure enough, Charlie grew even closer to Ben. What started as admiration for someone kind to him and his mom had shifted into complete trust and reliance, like a child with his father. Jamie noticed the changes, too. Her relationship with Ben, often nudged by Charlie, became increasingly intimate. She felt a mix of unease and warmth but couldn’t find the words to address it. Before she could make sense of her emotions, something happened. Her mom, Linda, was rushed to the hospital.“How is she? Last night, she

Jamie watched the bustling streets outside, her eyes clouded with a hint of sadness. Ben noticed and felt an inexplicable discomfort. Without a word, he gave the waiter a subtle nod. “Bring out all your signature dishes,” he instructed.The waiter paused, momentarily stunned, before breaking into a broad smile. “A big spender! What a lucky day,” the waiter silently remarked.Soon, the table was filled with steaming dishes. The strong and spicy aroma made her eyes water. She quickly moved to sit next to Ben.He glanced at her, a teasing lilt in his tone. “A moment ago, you could barely bother to engage, and now here you are, sitting closer. I guess no one forced you. You just couldn’t resist.”Jamie paused for a moment but chose not to argue. He wasn’t entirely wrong. Still, the playful exchange lightened her mood.As the dishes came out, Ben barely touched the food himself, instead piling Jamie’s plate high. Before long, her bowl was overflowing.“Enough, really,” she said hast
