Jessica's POVAnger, grievance, and disappointment, a tapestry of emotions intertwined. I felt I couldn't bear any more, so I turned and left the villa. It was unknown how much time had passed before I regained my senses. The cold night wind played with my long hair, and the dull ache in my head made me realize I had been walking alone for quite some time.I couldn't believe that Zander, that jerk, believed Tawny wasn't capable of harm. He wouldn't even deign to listen to what I had to say. Tawny's hypocritical face lingered in my mind. At the business dinner, when she falsely accused me of splashing wine on her, I thought she was just a woman who loved to stir up trouble. But now, I realized she was far more sinister than I imagined.Just like a moment ago, I knew her admission was meant to provoke me, yet under those circumstances, my emotions were still affected by her. I couldn't help but sigh, turned around, and walked back, as my car was still parked near the villa. Cars rushed

Jessica's POVI sat quietly outside Johnny's hospital door throughout the night, watching as the sky gradually lightened.As I began to feel the weariness, a voice suddenly spoke from behind."Ms. Riddle? Is that you?" I was startled and turned to find Ned.He must have been coming for his shift. I straightened my clothes and stood up, "Yes, let's go in together." "Ms. Riddle, have you been sitting outside for long? You could have asked Emmett and the others. They're on duty and could have let you in," Ned said.I shook my head slowly, not wanting to disturb others' rest, and I needed this solitude to sort out my chaotic thoughts.Ned didn't press further. He silently followed by my side, but I could see the confusion and a hint of concern in his eyes.As a subordinate trained in the family, this was a rule set when Justin was still the mafia boss. They were not to question the arrangements and commands of their superiors. Although the Riddle Group has successfully transitioned into a

Jessica's POVExiting the heavy doors of the courthouse, sunlight bathed me, yet I felt no warmth.Zander stood there quietly, his figure slightly forlorn. His lips trembled, on the verge of speaking, a look that left a bitter taste in my heart.I stopped and asked softly, "Anything you want to say?" Zander just stood in silence, as if time had frozen. After a long while, he shook his head gently.I let out a faint, bitter smile, "You're still like this, always keeping things to yourself. But from now on, I might not have the chance to hear what you want to say."Zander opened his mouth as if to say something, but in the end, no words came out.I didn't linger and turned to leave. I got into a taxi and messaged my best friend, Genevieve. "Dear Miss Woods, I've divorced. Could you accompany me to clear my head?"The message was barely sent when her reply popped up on my screen, "What? You divorced? What did that jerk Zander do?! I mean, of course, where should we meet?"I was amused by

Zander's POVHarrison Group Tower was nestled in the most bustling and expensive part of Los Angeles. My office, perched atop the tower, boasted the finest view, where I could be the first to witness the sunset over Los Angeles. Yet at that moment, I sat behind my desk, my thoughts drifting, utterly unable to concentrate. The sky outside the floor-to-ceiling glass panes gradually darkened.The scene of Jessica and I leaving the courthouse together kept replaying in my mind.This wasn't the first time Jessica had proposed divorce. Like last time, I had many ways to delay it, but I didn't.As Jessica turned and left, watching her resolute back, I felt a sharp pain in my heart. I still loved her. Yet our love was hurting each other.She had become restless due to Johnny's unresponsive state, but she never considered how much I wished my father were alive, even if in a coma like Johnny.That was an unbridgeable gap between us.A knock on the office door interrupted my thoughts. I gathered

Jessica's POVI had a dream where I returned to my youth.Then, I saw Zander, too.I didn't know why, but the moment I saw him, I wanted him desperately. He seemed to know what I was thinking and strode over, grabbing my shoulders and kissing me fiercely."Zander, no, I mean... okay... oh," I moaned as he moved my underwear aside and began to slowly glide his tongue all around me. "Mm," he groaned, looking up at me. I felt like I was already close. It felt so good that I was.I succumbed to his advances, the warmth and pleasure so real.After the shuddering, I felt a sense of emptiness, as if he had never filled me. I struggled to hold him back as he prepared to leave, and in an instant, I opened my eyes. I found myself lying on a soft, warm bed. The bathroom door was tightly closed, with the sound of water running inside. That familiar, comforting feeling enveloped my mind.Wait, didn't I go drinking with Genevieve? But why did I go drinking?My head spun, unable to think clearly.At
