“Is it really love? If it’s love, then why does your body still react to my presence?” Louis whispered.Jessica felt an inexplicable surge of anger through her. Before she knew it, her hand flew across his cheek, landing a resounding slap.Louis held his face, staring at her in shock.Jessica smirked, her hand stinging. “You’re right, my body still reacts to your presence. It reacts with anger. Every time I see you, I badly want to slap you.” She glared at him.“I’m married, Louis. I’m someone else’s wife. Don’t ever come near me again, or I won’t hesitate to press charges. I’m sure your fiancée wouldn’t appreciate knowing you’re chasing after your ex, right?” Jessica warned, turning to leave.Louis suddenly grabbed her wrist, pulling her back toward him.“How dare you raise your hand to me!” Louis sneered angrily.Jessica smirked and slapped his other cheek almost immediately.“F**k off.” She spat and walked away.Louis glared at her, his chest rising and falling with rage. “That b*t

“How do I look?” she asked, her eyes sparkling.William stared at her with wide eyes, unable to utter a word for several seconds.“William?” Jessica furrowed her brows.William cleared his throat and quickly looked away, a frown plastered on his face as though he was annoyed.“Where are you going?” he asked.Jessica smiled. “Our crew was invited to Mr. Edmond Wade's dinner party tonight, so I'm going,” she said excitedly, glancing at her dress.“I’m going to the same party too.”“Really?” Jessica looked at him. “Perfect! We could just tag along and—”“No,” William said flatly.“If you're going to come, take another car,” he added and entered his car without waiting for a reply. The car drove off immediately.“What is wrong with him? If he didn’t like the dress, he could have just said so,” Jessica mumbled, watching his car disappear down the driveway.“This way, Miss,” Jessica’s personal driver said, gesturing toward another vehicle.She nodded and followed him to the car, stepping in

“Wi… William Newman’s wife?” Oliver stammered, his voice trembling as the weight of those words sank in.He stared at Alexis in disbelief, his mind racing to comprehend the revelation. It couldn’t be true, could it? There had been no rumors, no whispers in the media about William Newman being in a relationship, let alone married. The news outlets, always eager to pry into the life of the business magnate, had never reported such a thing.“What the hell are you saying? Do you think I’m stupid enough to fall for that nonsense?” Oliver spat angrily, his voice carrying a mix of defiance and desperation.Alexis smirked, his expression calm and mocking. “You won’t be saying that once he gets here.” he replied, his tone laced with amusement.Turning to the guards, Alexis issued a cold command. “Untie the waiter and turn him over to the police. He’s irrelevant now.”As the guards began untying the unconscious waiter, Alexis glanced back at Oliver with a grin. “As for him,” he said, nodding to

Jessica turned to look at him with furrowed brows. She crossed her arms and raised a brow before speaking.“Oh, so now you're spying on me?” Jessica asked.“I asked a question, and I demand an answer,” William replied.Jessica frowned. “Really? And how did my personal life become any of your business? You don't have any right to question me about who I see and who I don't. You were the one who made the rules, remember? For us not to meddle in each other's private lives. You made the rule, so stick to it.”She scoffed and looked ahead. “Now, if you'll excuse me, I need some rest. Goodnight,” she said and walked up the remaining stairs.William just stared at her retreating figure, his fists clenched tightly.“What is wrong with me?” he muttered to himself._________The next day, Jessica woke up to a sunny morning. After taking a shower, she headed downstairs for breakfast. Entering the dining room, the delicious aroma of food wafted through the air, making her appetite grow.“Good mor

A brief moment of silence settled between them as Jessica stared at William with wide eyes, utterly speechless. She had been expecting him to get angry or glare at her like he usually did, but him admitting he was jealous was the last thing on her mind.The air between them suddenly felt tense and awkward. Her eyes widened in alarm when William took a step closer to her. She subconsciously stepped back, but William closed the gap by taking another step forward.“Umm... W... Wh—” Before she could form a coherent word, William casually took the food flask from her hand and walked to his seat.He sat down, opened the flask, and grabbed the spoon. “Let’s hope the food isn’t poisoned,” he said nonchalantly.Jessica rolled her eyes. “I really wish it were,” she muttered.Surprisingly, William chuckled at her remark, a faint smile playing on his lips. He ate a spoonful of the food and chewed slowly.“So...” Jessica muttered, “How is it?”William swallowed, his expression neutral. “Feels like
