Chapter 71 Don't You Dare Touch My Man

Nancy had intended to keep things under wraps and pretend she never found that packet of condoms, but now, she realized that it was impossible for her to ignore all this. She was too disgusted by this. "I need to go out for some fresh air!" Nancy tossed her books onto the desk and stormed out of the room. Yaacob glanced at her retreating figure, then at Xander. "What did you do?" "Nothing. I wouldn't dare touch her again, not after what you did to me," Xander said as he took a napkin to wipe the lipstick stain from his neck. "You missed a spot, Mr. Jenkins. Here, let me help you." Lisa approached him, but Yaacob stopped her, "Lisa, go check on Nancy and see if she needs anything. Order her something if she's hungry." "Okay, Mr. Getson." Lisa begrudgingly tore herself away from Xander and stepped out of the room. As soon as she left, Yaacob turned to Xander. "Don't do this in my office. It ruins the atmosphere." "Are you seriously trying to ruin my vibes, Yaacob?" Xander p

Chapter 72 I Don't Care What You Did in The Past

By the time Yaacob and Xander finally arrived, the two women were still entangled. Of course, Anna had the upper hand. Lisa's entire face lit up when she saw them. She mustered all the strength she had in her to shove Anna aside, then stood up and sprinted right toward Xander. "Save me, Mr. Jenkins!" Anna, who was sprawled on the ground, was even more outraged to see Lisa running right into Xander's arms. "You bitch! Let go of him!" "Help me, Mr. Jenkins. Your wife is a psycho! She's trying to kill me! My whole body hurts!" Lisa shrieked. Her face was covered in dust, her hair was matted, and her shirt was untucked. She, however, was unaware of this and thought she still looked attractive to Xander. Just as she was about to plaster her dirty face against his chest, Xander reached out and tilted her chin up, forcing her to meet his gaze. "Tsk tsk. What a sight you are!" He turned to glance at Anna. "Enough." The sight of him sticking up for another woman infuriated Anna. "Xa

Chapter 73 Why Do You Refuse to Touch Me

Yaacob could tell she was making a jab at him. He raised his brows quizzically, "What do you think is going on between me and Lisa?" "Your work is long and boring, and most of the time, lonely, so you need a hot secretary around to fill your time, don't you?" Nancy echoed what Lisa had told her. "Otherwise why did you hire someone like her?" "What do you mean, someone like her?" "You know what I'm trying to say." Nancy was unwilling to utter those nasty words. "The kind of woman that any man would want to sleep with!" Curvy and voluptuous! The kind of woman every man would kill to be with! Not to mention after their brief conversation, Nancy could deduce that Lisa had no other special talents besides her looks, so there was no way Yaacob could have hired her for her knowledge or executive skills. "The kind of woman any man would want to sleep with? Aren't you describing yourself?" Yaacob asked, and even teasingly squeezed Nancy's buttocks for good measure. "Hey, I'm being

Chapter 74 Keeping Them Apart

In the end, Yaacob made Nancy a bowl of pasta with broccoli and cherry tomatoes on the side as decorations. "Wow… I didn't know you could cook so well. This looks like something out of a Michelin restaurant!" Nancy gasped. She usually had a rule of not eating after past five so she could keep her figure, but she was absolutely ravenous, having expended too much energy from the day's events. She had intended to just grab a bite, but Yaacob's pasta was so delicious that she slurped the entire plate up within minutes. All of a sudden, she recalled what she had promised Yaacob before they got married that she would cook him all kinds of fancy feasts once they got married. Thankfully, Yaacob seemed to have forgotten all about it! Nancy twirled some pasta on her fork and brought it next to Yaacob's mouth. "Here, have a bite." Yaacob, who had been texting furiously on his phone, opened his mouth to swallow the mouthful of pasta, then resumed typing. Finally, he pressed send. "Wh

Chapter 75 While You're Gone

"How are you going to find someone prettier than her?" Yaacob retorted, echoing exactly what Nancy was thinking. If it were not for the fact that they were in public, she would give him a big, wet kiss right that instant! Rosa's expression turned dark. "How can you be preoccupied with just her looks? Do you even have any idea how bad her reputation is right now? Not only is she divorced, but there have been rumors about her and Spencer dating back from years ago! Don't even let me begin with the dirty ways she used to rise to fame—sleeping with music directors, manipulating people, and she's even a druggie! She's just pretending to be innocent. Everyone in the entertainment industry knows just how manipulative she is! She stole her own sister's husband, for God's sake! Don't be fooled, Yaacob." Nancy was so infuriated that she almost leaped to her feet. It was one thing to accuse her of being manipulative, but another thing entirely to accuse her of doing drugs. Rosa was even

Chapter 76 Everyone Can See That

"I'm not saying there definitely will be, but it's possible. Don't think too much of it and relax," Yaacob replied. His answers were always so vague, as though he were a secret agent who could not reveal too much about himself. Thankfully, Nancy was a cheerful person and did not think too much of it. The next day, she woke up at noon and realized that Yaacob and his suitcase were both gone. "He left just like that?" Nancy leaped out of the bed and flung open the closet door. Most of his clothes and toiletries were missing. Was he going to be away for a long time? Nancy had forgotten to ask him that. All she knew was that he was going to the United States. She sat on the edge of the bed, staring blankly in front of her. For some reason, she felt as if a part of her had gone missing. It was the same feeling she experienced whenever Spencer disappeared in the middle of the night to find Teresa. She would sit on the edge of the bed, wondering what had gone wrong, just like

Chapter 77 They're Making Fun of You

"Ahem!" Nancy let out a loud cough to signify her presence. The guest all turned to glance at her and ceased their discussion. "Why didn't either of you consider the possibility that my husband could have bought that vase and brought it back from overseas? Don't you all know that money can get you anything?" Nancy had not intended to act so cockily at all, but she could not stand hearing anyone judge Yaacob's taste. "My husband is Yaacob Getson, after all. He doesn't need to buy any counterfeit. He can easily get his hands on the real deal." "Tsk, Nancy. I guess you think you're all high and mighty now that you're rich," one of the guests sneered. That woman's name was Lizzy Suess, and she was a singer who had become famous from a talent show. She also happened to be one of Teresa's best friends. She had always despised Nancy and would always be the first out of Teresa's lackeys to defend her. Thus, Nancy did not see the need to save her face. "I've always been this cocky. Yo

Chapter 78 Helpless, Flailing Mess

Nancy was also stunned by this. She had not turned on the television yet since waking up, and thus she had no idea this would happen. It turned out Yaacob had pre recorded some videos that would pop up whenever she turned on the television. His expression was solemn as he stared right in front of him, where Nancy would be sitting on the couch. "What are you doing, watching television at this time of day? Have you finished your studies? "I prepared dinner and some fruits for you in the fridge. Once you're done eating, get back to studying. Remember, I have that pop quiz for you once I get back!" Yaacob's tone was endearing, as though he was talking to a toddler. If anything, he was acting like a parent keeping tabs on his preschooler. Although he was displeased at Nancy's decision to turn on the television before she finished studying, his tone was not accusative at all, but rather soft and tender. With that, he even winked at her. "Come on, be a good girl. Turn off the TV and

Chapter 79 If I Go Down, I'm Dragging Her Down With Me

As soon as Yvonne left, Nancy turned on the television once more. Yaacob's face appeared on the screen. "How's your studying going? Since you've been working hard, you're allowed to take an hour off to watch TV, but you have to go to bed on time after that. You should stop lying in bed for hours just scrolling on your phone." Nancy could not believe this. Had Yaacob specifically recorded different video clips for specific times of the day? How many video clips did he make? It seemed that he had programmed the television to play a specific clip for each time of the day, which would appear before leading Nancy to the channel selection page. However, Nancy suddenly lost her interest in watching TV after this. She turned off the TV, then turned it on again after a few minutes, and repeated this a few more times just to catch that glimpse of Yaacob's face on screen. She wondered what he was up to. She decided she would find out for herself, so she texted him. "I saw the recordin

Chapter 80 When Will You Come Back to Me

That day after returning home, Nancy spent the entire night trying to think of a solution, but nothing came to mind. It was not Pamela and Teresa's first time doing such a despicable thing. The fact that they had laid out this trip meant they surely had wiped their tracks clean, and since the rest of the employees would surely side with them, there was no way Nancy could prove Yvonne's innocence. Teresa was an expert at turning people against her, so how could Nancy possibly compete? Wait a minute. Nancy suddenly recalled something. Teresa had only managed to harm her because Nancy was broke and had no one to help her, but now, she had Yaacob. Perhaps Yaacob would know what to do. At the thought of this, Nancy took out her phone, trying to call Yaacob for help. Since he had managed to save her from her two lawsuits, he would certainly know how to save Yvonne too. However, she could not get through to his phone. What was happening? Nancy dialed his number three times
