The atmosphere had reached an icy point at those words.Jessamine's heart clenched. She suspected that Thaddeus would want to have children with Amy. At this moment, she had a masochistic desire to hear him say it outright, so she could completely give up.After a prolonged silence that felt like an eternity, she finally heard him speak."The child is innocent," Thaddeus said.Each word struck her heart like a blade.He did indeed want to have children with Amy, even if Thomas told him to leave Holt Jewelry.Jessamine couldn't bear it any longer and burst into tears. Three years of marriage had brought her nothing but pain."I'll go fetch some water." She found an excuse to step out of the room.Jessamine felt dead on the inside. She made her way to the pantry, only to realize that she hadn't brought a thermos with her when she saw someone else carrying one.Alone in the pantry, she couldn't hold back any longer. She leaned against the wall and cried bitterly.Jessamine knew

Jessamine and Thaddeus stood on either side of the hospital bed.Thomas looked at both sides before making an announcement."I've decided to let Jessie join Holt Jewelry. She has a background in design, so let her work in the design department for now. Ted, make the arrangements," he declared.Thaddeus paused for a few seconds before responding, "Grandpa, I'm afraid she won't be able to cope with the intensity of the design department's work. Besides, she hasn't worked in this field for many years. She may have forgotten what she learned before."Thomas grunted. "If she forgot, she can pick it up again. Jessie is a smart girl. With you helping her, she won't disappoint us.""Grandpa, Holt Jewelry is not an ordinary business. You know my attitude toward employees. I won't show favoritism, and I can't tolerate employees with inadequate skills. Everyone in Holt Jewelry is an elite," Thaddeus responded."Dumbass, is Jessie any ordinary person? She's your wife!" shouted Thomas.Thadd

"I … A friend is expecting a baby next month, so I'm here to pick a gift for her," Jessamine lied.Benji sighed. "I thought you two were having a baby. But Jessie, have you gained some weight recently? You look … different."He couldn't quite put a finger on what was different about her.Jessamine tensed for a moment, subconsciously inhaling and tightening her stomach. "Different … how?""A bit more plump, or should I say, more beautiful," remarked Benji.Jessamine breathed a sigh of relief. She thought she almost got exposed.The saleswoman, who had been listening to their conversation, took the opportunity to speak. "Miss, if you're looking for a gift, I recommend our gift boxes. We have high-end baby clothes …"Jessamine hesitated for a moment but decided not to buy anything. If she was seen by someone she knew, it could lead to unnecessary suspicions. She bid Benji goodbye and quickly left the store.In the end, she bought two pure gold guardian angel pendants from a jewelr

Benji's words kept echoing in his ears. Jessamine had vomited in the car not long ago, and there was one night when he tried to hug her and got kicked away. She claimed she was on her period and avoided any physical contact.However, they always took contraceptive measures.At this thought, he firmly responded to Benji, "That's impossible."As the conversation unfolded, Benji understood that Thaddeus had come to drown his sorrows in alcohol because of his night with Amy. He even wanted to take responsibility for it."Thaddeus, do you really love Amy?" asked Benji.Coincidentally, Thaddeus' phone rang at that moment, displaying the name "Amy".Thaddeus stared at the screen for a few seconds, then pressed the decline call button. Amy had been persistent lately, and he was starting to feel annoyed.After ending the call, he didn't reply to Benji's question directly. Instead, he said, "It's been 11 years. What do you think?"Benji chuckled. "Stop struggling. If you truly love her,

Jessamine lowered her eyes, lightly caressing her abdomen with a smirk."You should go back with her. Jardin Estate is empty. It's fine if you bring her to stay there," Jessamine stated.On the side, Amy nearly ground her teeth to pieces. Thaddeus mistook her for Jessamine last time at Islington Apartments when he got drunk, and again this time. He was embarrassing her in front of Jessamine."Hubby, let's go home. I'll make you a sobering drink," Amy coaxed.Amy clung to Thaddeus' arm even tighter, constantly acting coy. "Let's go, Hubby."Jessamine heard the word "hubby" too frequently from Amy, and she found it slightly amusing.Thaddeus' eyes had never left Jessamine's face, as though they were glued to her face. He shook off Amy's hand, reprimanding, "Miss, did you mistake me for someone else? How can you casually call anyone Hubby? Please have some respect!"Benji chuckled."Jessie, take him home quickly. He had a strong drink today. Once it fully kicks in, no one can carr

Jessamine straightened her shirt collar, placing her hands on his chest."Don't talk nonsense. I'll help you run a bath," she said.But Thaddeus held her close and didn't let go."I'm not talking nonsense. I know your body. Did you secretly go for surgery behind my back?" he questioned.The conversation was getting more absurd. Jessamine couldn't forget the "flat wooden plank" comment he made last time."Thaddeus, take a good look. I'm not flat! I didn't have surgery. They're soft!" she exclaimed.Thaddeus suddenly chuckled."I'll need to check that for myself. Maybe during the time you didn't let me touch you, you secretly added something inside. Also, my cock is not a fucking bird's eye chili. You can confirm it yourself," Thaddeus bragged.Jessamine blushed as though she was the drunk one. The atmosphere was becoming strange. She averted her gaze and couldn't meet his eyes. At this moment, he seemed like a bewitching demon to her.She knew her self-control wasn't that stron

"I know, Mr. Holt," Jessamine responded.Thaddeus added, "You can use my supplementary card until the divorce is finalized.""No need. Leave it for Amy," Jessamine said.Thaddeus had finally managed to suppress his anger, but those words sparked it again. Ever since they signed the divorce agreement, Jessamine seemed like she had taken a stimulant. For every word he said, she had a counter of ten. She had become sharp-tongued."I'm being nice to you," Thaddeus sneered.With that, he stumbled into the shower.Jessamine stared blankly at the ceiling for a while. Then she found a pajama and went to sleep in the guest room. Learning from her experience, the first thing she did upon entering was to lock the door.The sense of security in the first 20 years of her life came from her mother and grandmother, but now it came from this lock.She couldn't help but mock herself, wondering if putting a lock on her heart would make her hurt less.The next day, Jessamine quickly freshened up

Thaddeus frowned slightly. "Do you like comparing yourself to her?""My hubby is divorcing me for his sister-in-law. Who wouldn't want to make comparisons?" she retorted.Thaddeus' expression changed slightly. He took a step forward, and Jessamine found herself blocked at the corner of the elevator."What did you just say?" he asked.Jessamine blinked and looked up at him. "I didn't say anything wrong, did I? Your wife's sister is your sister-in-law."Thaddeus swallowed, then said again, "Repeat the first two words you said."Jessamine blushed for a moment, thinking that this scumbag still wanted to take advantage of her. Fortunately, the elevator opened."Can you let me through? This is my floor," she pointed out.Thaddeus glanced at the number on the elevator wall, then said, "Sorry, this isn't my floor."Jessamine retorted, "I said my floor, not yours. Let me out."Thaddeus casually replied, "Sure, go ahead."The look on his face seemed to say he didn't have anything to d
