Chapter 80

Jessica Hemsworth

‘6 P.M. Don't keep me waiting’.

A smirk touched my lips as I read Mrs. Holt's message.

I had sent her a text today, asking to meet.

“Hey! Let's go.” Oliver said as he joined me at the lobby.

We stepped outside together earlier, but he went back to get something from his office.

“Uhm… can you go ahead without me, please? I have something important to attend to.”

His brows knitted together, surprised.

“I need to meet someone. It's important.”

He stared silently for at least five seconds, then asked, “Do you need me to drive you there?”

I quickly shook my head. “No, please. You don't have to. I'll come home soon.”

He hesitated, but nodded. “You can call me anytime if you want me to come pick you.”

“Sure.”

I watched as he hopped inside his car and drove off.

I took a cab to Mrs Holt's apartment, arriving in exactly thirty minutes.

My heels clicked against the floor, echoing along the walkway as I counted my steps toward the living room.

    Chapter 83Oliver's apartment Jessica Hemsworth ‘Lynn Lancaster and Richmond Lee's.A smile crept up my face as I gently rubbed my palm over the invitation card Ms. Lynn had sent to me.Her wedding is in three days.My attention was drawn by the thick footsteps descending the staircase, and I quickly put the card away as Oliver walked in.“Hey! You are here…” I blinked as my eyes roamed his body for a second. He was fully dressed.“Are you going out?”“Hmm. We are going out.”“We?”“Ms. Lynn's wedding is in three days. We need to go shopping today.”“Shopping?”Right… I didn't think about that.I stood and grabbed the card. “Sure. I will go get ready.”“Hmm. Join me in the car when you're done.”As he walked towards the exit door, I headed to my room.Back in the living room, I stared down at my clothes one more time, letting out a sigh before stepping out of the house.After searching my closet for what seemed like forever, I managed to pick up a pair of beige jeans trousers and w

    Chapter 82Jessica Hemsworth ‘Hey! Let's talk. I'm in front of your workplace’.Viktor? What's he doing here?For a second, I thought of ignoring his text, but memories of how he created a scene here in the past, made me have a second thought.I didn't want him barging in here to bother Oliver.I let out a sigh as I stood and walked over to Oliver who was in his office, eyes glued to his computer.“Yes, Jess?” He looked up at me. “Do you need anything?”“Can I step out for a moment, please? I have something to attend to.”His brows knitted together, worries creeping up his face. “Is everything alright?”For now, yes. But if I don't go out, things might go wrong.“Yes…”“Sure. Go ahead.”“I'll be right back.”I stepped out of the office, pausing momentarily along the walkway before approaching the elevator.At the parking lot, Viktor stood by his car, eyes scanning around.I paused for a moment, letting out a sigh, and as I approached him, he straightened his back.“I thought you were

    Chapter 81Oliver Hall I glanced at my wristwatch. Ten minutes have passed since I've been parked outside the cafe, waiting for Jess to come out.“Why is she not here yet?” I muttered, eyes glued to the entrance of the cafe. I wasn't proud of it, but I couldn't help following Jessica here earlier… I was worried about her.My fingers tightened on the steering wheel as memories of earlier clawed back into my mind.I hung around after I left the office. I couldn't help the excitement that surged through me when Jess left alone.I had no idea what happened between them, but Liam looked really pissed after Jess left. “I should go check on her.” I muttered, stepping out of the car.I was going to take a peak. She wasn't supposed to see me, but as I approached the entrance, Jess stepped out, and it was already too late to hide.Shit!Her brows furrowed as surprise crept up her face. “Huh… Why are you here?”“Who? Me?” I blinked, smiling awkwardly. “I…I came to buy coffee. Yes, I'm here to

    Chapter 79 Susanne I paused along the staircase and glanced back at Viktor, a smile creeping up my face as our eyes met. Why can't he leave everything and focus on me? I met Jeremy curled on his bed, his knees hugged tightly to his chest, and his cheeks soaked in tears. He flinched once he noticed my presence, fear creeping up his face. “Poor boy.” I muttered, and as I approached him, he scrambled backwards. “Are you done eating?” I halted and asked, a smirk touching my lips. “Oh… right… I haven't served you yet.” I crossed my arms in front of me. “You should go to the waste bin if you want to eat. Your food is resting there.” He didn't deserve to eat, so I threw his food in the waste bin. Having him around here was already annoying, and he dared threaten me to tell Viktor about the picture frame? “Why are you doing this to me, aunt Susanne?” He asked, his voice teary and shaky. I shrugged casually. “Because I can.” Colours drained from his face… as if he'd just

    Chapter 78 Viktor Holt ‘Sign the divorce paper’. I tightened my jaw as her words echoed in my head. The nerve of her to think that I will grant her a divorce. She schemed her way into my life… how dare she want to leave now? I sat in my room, dialling Jess's number for the umpteenth time, but she didn't pick up. ‘Fucking pick my call, Jess. I'm going to find you, and I will drag you back here. I promise’. She read my text but still did not reply to any of them. I tossed my phone on the bed, and as I stood to go to the bathroom, it came ringing, and I halted. “I knew she would call me back.” A smirk touched my lips, but as I picked up my phone, disappointment coursed through me. It was aunt Lucy. “Yes, aunt Lucy?” “Viktor… has Jessica returned home yet?” “No, she hasn't.” I rubbed my temple as I let out a sigh. She sighed, frustration evident in her voice. Then she asked, concerned. “How is Jeremy? How are you coping with him?” Speaking of Jeremy… thanks
