Jordan knew his bonus for the month would double when he finished speaking and saw the appreciative look Thaddeus gave him.Jessamine was surprised to hear that he had bought a house here. She had only heard from Xander last time that Thaddeus was looking for houses. Xander even notified all the offline stores not to sell houses to him. Within a few days, he had moved into his own house now? Jessamine thought to herself that someone as picky as him would definitely not be able to tolerate staying in a hotel for long. Moreover, buying a house through an agent probably wasn't the only option available to him. He could do anything with his money.Jessamine was left speechless looking at the pile of items on the desk.Fortunately, she had personally picked and bought the largest desk for convenience. Well, Thaddeus got to enjoy it now.Sophia couldn't sit still on the couch anymore. If Jerome heard about what Thaddeus did, she wouldn't be able to collect the final payment from him. P

The HR manager on the other side was all smiles. This was really good news. Seeing that Thaddeus was in a good mood today, she followed up with another question, "Mr. Holt, how much is the budget for the annual dinner?"Thaddeus raised his eyebrows slightly and said calmly, "Around thirty million."Everyone was stunned by his answer. Although Thaddeus was not stingy when it came to employee benefits, this thirty million annual dinner expenditure was unheard of in the entire country. They could already imagine how extravagant it would be.The HR manager, Ms. Zeller, suddenly had an idea. "Got it, I'll make sure the task is completed!"As Jessamine finished tidying up the miscellaneous items on the desk and prepared to leave, Thaddeus grabbed her wrist."Jessie, do you want to say something?"Jessamine glared at him and bypassed him, leaving with her belongings.Thaddeus coughed awkwardly. "She doesn't want to speak. Let's start the meeting now. First, let's discuss the outstandin

"Let's end our friendship," Thaddeus replied.Thaddeus glanced over at Jessamine, who was focused on her work, showing no consideration for his proposal to eat together. He had to come up with another plan.As lunchtime approached, Jessamine saw a lunch invitation from Judith in the company group chat."Attention! We are having our lunch at Reverie Delights today. Mr. Holt has reserved a floor in return for using Jacinda's office. Please finish up your work, shut your computers down, and gather at Reverie Delights at noon. No one should be absent!"Jessamine felt frustrated as she read the message in the group chat on her computer. Thaddeus was sitting in front of her as if nothing was happening. He must have assigned tasks to Jordan behind her back again!Thaddeus felt a sharp gaze when he was about to text Jordan. He lifted his eyes and saw Ressamine's resentful expression. He knew she had seen the message.Feeling a sense of satisfaction in his heart, he thought to himself tha

Thaddeus' expression became serious. "When did she show up?""Our people found her checking into a hotel last night. They kept an eye on her all night and waited until she came out in the morning to confirm that it was her," Jordan answered.Thaddeus took out a cigarette and held it between his fingers. "Book the tickets. We need to go back to Zenville immediately."Jordan was always thorough in his work, and he had already anticipated that Thaddeus would fly back to Zenville as soon as he heard the news."Mr. Holt, I have booked the tickets. The flight departs in an hour and a half. Our car is downstairs. If we leave now, we'll make it to the airport just in time."The two of them stepped out of the elevator as they spoke. Jordan went ahead to open the car door and then drove to the airport at the fastest speed.Back at the restaurant, Thaddeus' departure made everyone feel more at ease. The atmosphere became lively again, completely different from earlier.Jessamine had a hear

"Mr. Holt, I'll give my wife a call first," Jordan said.Thaddeus watched Jordan's back absentmindedly for a while. Now, he didn't even have the right to report his whereabouts by phone.He deeply missed the days when Ressamine would call him multiple times a day, urging him to come home after work. Back then, no matter how late he returned, there would always be supper waiting for him. Now when he returned home, there was only a cold bed waiting for him. He was the only human in their spacious house. Forget about a warm supper. There wasn't even pure water available when Jordan was being careless.It was a blessing being cared for, and it was also a blessing to have someone to care for. Unfortunately, he didn't appreciate the blessing. It took being alone for him to wake up to it.After a moment of self-reflection, Thaddeus took out his phone and texted Jessamine's number on WhatsApp. He waited for a response, but there was none.About ten minutes later, Jordan finished his cal
