Alle Kapitel von Her Affectionate Revenge ( His Cold Prey): Kapitel 21 – Kapitel 30

Filled with anger, Jessica collected the file and left the office. She was determined to finish the work by that two hours so he wouldn't have any excuse to query her again.Getting to her desk, she started sorting out the file while thinking about his behavior in the office. Why would he tell her that she was flirting with the male workers in the office? The only male worker she had contact with was James at the cafeteria and this morning when he gave her a lift. Was he talking about James? But how is that his business? Has she ever complained about the numerous girlfriends he brings to the office?Biting back her anger, Jessica delved into her work. She was so engrossed in her job that she didn't realize it was time for lunch. She had already told herself she would finish the document even if she has to miss lunch.Her phone was ringing incessantly but because she already set it on silent mode, she didn't hear it ring. Some minutes later, someone tapped on her office desk.She relu

After a few minutes, the waitress brought their food. Jessica's eyes traveled all over the food as she salivated. The hunger brewing inside her could not be hidden anymore. She quickly delve into the food not minding that Edwin was sitting with her too. She was just too famished to think of anything else. She ate the food very fast yet very neatly.Watching her eating, Edwin blames himself for doing that to her all day. But he was also curious how she was able to maintain her eating etiquette even when she was so hungry. She looked like a well-bred upper-class girl. Someone with a high social status that had been trained. Edwin quickly dispel that thought. How could she come from a wealthy family and still work at a cafe? She doesn't even have money to buy clothes for herself! Instead, Edwin focused on his food so she could be satisfied. He was also hungry.He only took a cup of coffee and he had to work all through the day besides getting laid by Janet. He guessed that must be the

Edwin was in the office working through some files that needed his attention before leaving for his business trip. He had told her to stay back last night so she could have lots of rest before they would travel.But it looks like it was a miscalculation decision on his part. He was finding it difficult to finish up the documents. He sighed, rubbing his temples. " This would have been fast if Jessica was here. She knows how to sort these files better," Edwin thought to himself.Edwin was busy on the file when his phone vibrated. He took time away from the computer and glanced through his phone. He ignored the call as he continued working on the files."Buzz buzz buzz" The phone vibrated again. This time he was getting frustrated. He knew nothing good would come out of this call. " Why does mom keep calling when she knows I will be busy at work?," Edwin said with a crinkled nose." Hello, sweetie," Edwin greeted her while concentrating on the files."Are you not planning to visit us

Jessica looked away from him and focused on the screen. Wasn't that a game layout? Why would he show her the company secret project? " This is the project I want to bid for, I am not the only one trying to get this project, there are also top competitors companies, what do you think of the game layout?" He asked, cutting through her thoughts.Seeing that she was silent, Edwin thought she was thinking about how he found out about her. " I saw you studied computer science in school. I need the opinion of someone in the field," Edwin explained, looking at her.After checking the interface for a few minutes, Jessica could see where they needed to make some editing to make it easier for users while using the product." Sir, I think you need to check here, users might mistake it for another instruction, you need to explain it properly. And here too, you can make it more simple," Jessica suggested." Okay," Edwin responded, checking the places she made suggestions.He saw that it if he goe

Edwin drew a chair out, sitting across Jessica with a furrowed brow." Why will she react to his touch that way? All she does is give me a nonchalant attitude and here she was blushing because of a simple touch," Edwin ranted to himself." Are you okay, sir," Jessica asked, looking at Edwin, who was murmuring to himself." Yes, I am fine. Have you known him before?" Edwin asked, looking at her as his voice was laced with hidden jealousy. " Gary? Of course not. We met here. I am thankful he helped me earlier or else I would have been so embarrassed," Jessica explained, smiling at the mention of Gary. She was indeed grateful to him. Edwin frowned at her words. When did Gary save her from embarrassment? He wanted to ask her but he felt that if he does, she would think he was too busy flirting to even take notice of her."Why can't I just let off those beauties till I get her? Arrggg! They are just too tempting," he grumbled to himself before looking at Jessica. Jessica who was still r
