Chapter 6

Jessica's POV

 

"Damn it!" I gasped, dropping my phone on the table.

"What happened, Ms. Riddle?" Lucas asked.

"That asshole Zander threatened me with Johnny," I said angrily.

"He's gonna use Johnny's company against you?" Lucas asked, "I don't think that's a big problem for us."

"That company is all he has. I don't want him bothered." I sighed, "I didn't think Zander would be so mean."

"So what's your plan now?"

"I'm going to the Harrison Group," I said, grabbing my bag and cell phone.

 

I drove alone to the Harrison Group.

When I entered the building, the scene of yesterday came over me again.

A feeling of nausea welled up.

I took a deep breath to calm myself.

"Mrs. Harrison, good evening."

The security guard greeted me with a smile. I smiled and ran to the elevator.

 

The elevator stopped at the top floor. I walked quickly towards Zander's office.

I wanted to talk to Zander thoroughly.

Just as I was about to arrive at the door, a familiar voice sounded behind me.

"Jessica, wait."

I stopped and turned around, and my eyebrows furrowed involuntarily.

It was Serena.

She wiggled her ass towards me in a tight short skirt.

 

I looked at the woman who had interfered in my marriage, but I wasn't angry at all.

Probably because I knew that it wasn't because of anyone else that Zander and I had become the way we were.

I didn't want to talk to her. I turned around and kept walking.

"Stop, where are you going? Don't just walk around the Harrison Group."

Serena ran up to me, blocking my path.

"Fuck off," I whispered.

Serena looked at me surprisingly, "Mr. Harrison isn't in his office, so get out of there."

 

"What? Didn't Mr. Harrison inform you? He asked me to come." I raised an eyebrow, looking at her.

"You're talking nonsense!" Serena remained motionless. She said, "No one is allowed in Mr. Harrison's office without an appointment. It's my duty as his secretary."

Hearing her words, I let out a mocking laugh.

I said coldly, "Is it also a secretary's duty to sleep with her boss?"

Upon hearing my words, Serena didn't show a panicked or embarrassed expression. Instead, she looked a little smug and said, "Yes, I..."

 

Before she could finish her sentence, I raised my hand and slapped her.

I can do some martial arts. So even with half my strength, the slap was powerful enough.

Serena let out a painful scream and staggered back two steps, clutching her face and looking at me in fear.

"How dare you!" she shouted.

"You know what? You're not even worth talking to me," I said, grabbing her hair and dragging her forward.

In the midst of her shocked screams, I pushed open the door and then forcefully threw her into Zander's office.

 

"What's going on?" Zander furrowed his brow and looked at both me and Serena.

Before I could speak, Serena rushed over to Zander's desk. Her face bore the marks of the slap, her hair was a mess, and she cried, "I don't know why, but Jessica just slapped me when she saw me."

"I told you to address her as Mrs. Harrison," Zander said in a stern tone.

Serena suddenly fell silent.

It seemed she hadn't expected that Zander didn't offer her any comfort.

 

"What's going on?" Zander's gaze shifted towards me.

I pointed to the door and said, "Your secretary wouldn't let me in. Go check out the cameras yourself."

Serena's expression changed, and she immediately started to defend herself, "If Mr. Harrison asked you to come, you could have told me with a better attitude. But you started by assaulting me."

"Serena!" Zander shouted at her, "Get out!"

Serena's face turned red, and she ran out, covering her face.

Zander took out the divorce agreement and placed it on the desk. He stared at me and said, "Take it back. I never cheated, so this divorce reason doesn't hold."

"I'll come up with a different reason and provide you with a new one then," I said nonchalantly.

"Don't push your luck," Zander threatened.

"Zander, you don't actually think I still love you, do you? Would you let someone have sex in your office?" I mocked.

Zander, surprisingly, showed a hint of a smile and said, "Why are you so angry? Your behavior now seems a lot like jealousy, doesn't it?"
