Thaddeus heard the screams and strode closer to the bathroom. Clara was staring in horror at the giant teddy bear on the bed. Thaddeus asked her to look after Amy, but she went missing under her care once more.Thaddeus frowned when he saw the empty bed.Clara knew that she was in trouble and was about to cry. Ever since Amy disappeared all night that day, Thaddeus had repeatedly ordered Clara to make sure Amy never left her home. She couldn't go outside, and no one was allowed inside their home.Clara was in tears as she said seriously, "Mr. Holt, Ms. Quilton was still here in the middle of the night. She said she had a stomach ache and wanted me to get her some water. How could she have gone missing in that amount of time? "Mr. Holt, I really didn't let her leave. I've been so cautious even since you gave me that reminder. I slept very lightly, but I never heard the door open at all."Things were still fine when Clara never mentioned what happened last time, but now that sh

The newcomer, Jerome, was stunned. Then, he looked her over again. He knew it was rude to do so, but he couldn't hold back his surprise.There couldn't be two people who looked so alike. Jessamine didn't have a twin, either.The woman before him looked more indifferent than before; her hair was shorter, and he could see an unhealed scar under the dress strap on her shoulder. Her feelings of alienation were exactly the same as before.After the car accident half a year ago, everyone believed that Jessamine was dead. Thaddeus, in particular, had trouble moving on from her death. Jerome never had any doubts about Thaddeus' behavior. He even went to pay his respects at the grave Thaddeus made for Jessamine. After all, he had regarded her as a goddess ever since he fell in love with her.He still remembered that shocking feeling upon meeting her for the first time. He had never felt that way in his life. His heart pounded so much that it was almost out of control. After finding out

Sometime later, Jessamine hired two assistants, and Jaricles Design Studio officially opened its doors.On opening day, Xander sent a lot of baskets of flowers to congratulate her. Jessamine wanted to keep a low profile and start her own business. Therefore, he respected her decision and refrained from doing anything despite being anxious to help her. He was also looking forward to witnessing Jessamine's capabilities for himself.Jessamine was sorting the bookshelf in her office while her assistants, Carly Summers and Judith Callaway, were decorating the office area with the flower baskets, all of which were sent by Xander. Carly arranged the flowers neatly and looked at the last oversized flower basket in a daze.Usually, flower baskets were more than three feet high, but the last one was at least six feet high. It wasn't a basket at this point, but a barrel. It didn't look like Xander bought them from a florist. He seemed to have had this batch of flowers specially customized. I

A hint of panic appeared on Heather’s expression. "Ted has always been single. Do any of you know a young woman who'd be perfect for him? If you do, you never have to worry about not getting our jewelry."The group of ladies started discussing which single heiress would be perfect for Thaddeus. Then, they asked, "Mrs. Holt, what's Mr. Thaddeus' type? We do know some women, but in terms of looks, they're not as great as his previous wife."Everyone sighed. "There's no way I can get any jewelry. No one I know is as good-looking as Thaddeus' wife. This is simply a difficult task. Even if we introduce someone, I'm afraid Mr. Thaddeus wouldn't like her!" one of them exclaimed.The others nodded. "That's right! Mrs. Holt, just grease the wheels and ask Mr. Thaddeus to let us have some of his products."Just then, Myra walked out with Sophia, gaining the attention of every wealthy lady present. She was relatively young in appearance among this group of wealthy spouses. With her supple a

The visitor asked, "Did you get the flowers I sent?"Jessamine was stunned. She asked, "What flowers?"Jerome smiled. "It looks like you didn't read the card. That's fine. I'm here to give my congratulations in person."Jessamine tried to remain composed. "You're too kind, sir. We're not familiar with each other, so there's no reason for me to take your gift. How much did you spend on it? I'll have my assistant transfer the money to you."Jerome had expected her to give such a response. He remained silent for a moment before saying, "Ms. Patton, I'd like to talk to you about a business deal. Do you mind sparing me some of your time?"As soon as he asked his question, the quick-witted Carly and Judith quickly hid somewhere, leaving only him and Jessamine in the hall.Jessamine still had a sullen expression on her face. She didn't want to have connections with anyone from Zenville. Moreover, Jerome was Thaddeus' classmate.As an adult woman, she knew Jerome's intentions toward her
