Hayden waved his hand. "Sean, what are you talking about? That's not true.""Are you still pretending? Do you think I just met you yesterday? I can tell what you're thinking just by looking at you. That's the client we're talking about—make sure you're clear-headed.""Sean, what nonsense are you talking about? I just feel like I've seen this lady before."Sean handed him a few more sheets of tissue."Alright, stop pretending in front of me. Get yourself together and always be mindful of your image. You're a celebrity and need to be aware of your status. Just because you're good-looking doesn't mean you can act recklessly."Hayden wiped his face, stared at himself in the mirror for a long time, and muttered to himself, "It really seems to be her."After coming out of the restroom, Hayden's lazy demeanor completely disappeared, and he instantly became energetic and lively.Hayden sat back in the spot he was in earlier. "Ms. Patton, would you mind adding me on WhatsApp? This way, i

Jessamine turned the steering wheel to make a U-turn and headed toward the company.When the car parked in front of the complex lot, Thaddeus was already standing there waiting.The streetlight made his shadow look like it was stretched out very long.Jessamine got out of the car, and he immediately reached out with his hand to hold hers."Have you eaten yet?"Jessamine reached out to grab his hand, and the two of them walked side by side."You weren't here, so I just grabbed a bite."Thaddeus' new office was on the same level as Kama Jewelry. When they got off the elevator, they went straight to his company.Some employees from Holt Jewelry had been transferred from Zenville, and they had recently hired quite a few new people. At this hour, after the workday had ended, the entirety of the large office was quiet.Thaddeus walked with Jessamine. He showed her around different areas and explained each one to her."Jessie, this area is for the marketing department, and here we h

Jessamine inhaled small gulps of air and filled her lungs with oxygen. Then, she exhaled slowly, as if it was the only way to ensure she wouldn't suffocate.For a long time after, she nestled against his chest and murmured softly, "I spoke with Layla in the afternoon. She should be asleep now and won't be waiting for me."Jessamine didn't answer his question directly, but Thaddeus understood the underlying meaning instantly.She didn't say no, so that meant she had accepted him.Thaddeus held her face gently, with his thumb lightly brushing the corner of her eye. In the mood of the moment, the simple gesture felt incredibly intimate.He bowed his head to kiss her lips—they were plump and bouncy like jelly, and no amount of it could satisfy him.Jessamine wasn't sure how long they had been kissing, but a sliver of her sanity remained, reminding her that they were in the office. In her mind, a clear-headed version of herself was having a tug-of-war with a passionate and impulsive s

Jessamine opened the lunchbox and took a bite of her food. Being both tired and hungry, she should eat and regain her energy.Thaddeus could tell what she was eating just by the sound on the phone."Jessie, how about coming over to my office for dinner tonight?"Jessamine paused and was immediately on her guard."We can just go out for dinner. Why do we have to go to your office?"Falling for his trick once was more than enough. At least for the time being, she didn't have the courage to step into his office again.Thaddeus couldn't help but laugh."What are you afraid of? I'm not going to bother you today. We'll just talk about work stuff. If you're too scared to come over, we can go to Grandpa's place. We can grab some ingredients and then chat while we're at it. After all, you still haven't finished the jackfruit in the fridge."Jessamine was extra cautious when she listened to him, fearing that she might fall into another one of his traps. When she heard "chat while we're a

Jessamine paused for a few seconds, pondering the question before she spoke."If it could bring us mutual benefit, then collaboration isn't out of the question. However, dominating the global market sounds a bit too ambitious, given the multitude of strong companies out there. Of course, in the short term, it can still be set as a goal to strive for."At Holt Jewelry, they were also celebrating their award win. Among the top ten award winners, only two of them were from Creslandia, and the other Creslandian was from Holt Jewelry Design Department.The interview was broadcast live on the screen in the lobby of Holt Jewelry. Everyone watched it attentively, soaking in the presence of the industry leader and basking in the celebratory spirit that filled the air.Jessamine and Thaddeus' relationship was well-known within Holt Jewelry.Compliments flowed with each passing moment."Wow! Mrs. Holt is amazing!""No wonder she's the boss' missus!""Mrs. Holt is the jewelry industry's bi
