She thought the girl was not interested in Lexi, but why did she come to this house after a month?Mrs. Anna went downstairs and called Lexi. There was only Cassandra and Jessica in this room.“How long have you been working here?"Cassandra asked. She thought Jessica was just a maid.“Emm-one month!"Jessica answered. She continued to observe Cassandra from toe to toe. Beautiful face with appropriate makeup, her clothes looked very fashionable from famous brands. Indeed, everything in Cassandra was very harmonious.“Follow me!” Cassandra asked. They walked and talked to the end of the stairs. She stopped and looked at Jessica. “Do you know where Lexi's room is?""I know, Miss! But I can't seem to get you inside. We are all maids in the forbidden entry, " Jessica explained.“Oh, okay. I just don't want to know what was in the room,” she said, beckoning Jessica to follow her to the second floor
CHAPTER 29YOU ARE MY SHADOWJessica's phone rang. He grabbed the phone on the table and immediately stopped the alarm. Didn't want to wake Lexi up.Jessica slowly moved her husband's hand away that hugged her waist. After that Jessica immediately got up and walked to the balcony. She did not receive a phone call from Chelsea.There must be something important about why Chelsea contacted him. Jessica nimbly swiped her phone screen looking for Chelsea's number and immediately called her.” Hello, " Chelsea greeted after picking up her phone.“Hello, sorry that last night I could not receive a phone call!"Jessica kept her voice down because she didn't want Lexi to wake up.“Yes, I just want to tell you, Beryl is coming home next week, can you see her?" Chelsea asked. She couldn't help much, including asking Jessica to always reply to messages from Beryl. She also did not want to become an intermediary between Beryl and Jessica.“Beryl, is home?" Jessica so remembered the fate of the pe
CHAPTER 30I DON'T FALL IN LOVE“Do you think we can win the city development project? It seems that the company from Singapore still does not want to resign!” Lexi said then he looked at some of the city park designs. He had ambition to win the project.“The company from Singapore is only a subsidiary of Mr. Kim's company. Kim Foundation and Kim Corporation! Not the main company, I believe we still have a chance to win this project!" Arsene said. "I will go to the top and tell them to back off, right now our only real competitors are them."Lexi convinced.“How is Jessica?" Arsene asked. The sudden marriage of his boss made the man forget that Mr. Lexi Ricardo already has a wife."Jessica is fine! She turned out to be braver than I thought,” Lexi said."Braver?' Arsene's imagination went wild hearing that statement.“Yes, how dare she refuse my orders!" Lexi answered."Oh!" Arsene smiled to himself. "What about Mrs. Anna and Mr. Samuel, do they know that you and Jessica are only in

Then, she opened the message from Mrs. Anna. She immediately called his mother-in-law.Jessica sat in the back garden, watching her phone screen.
CHAPTER 32WHO CARES?“Happy Holidays Sir, dont forget to say my regard for your wife!" Arsene stopped his car in the garage.“You don't want to come?” Lexi asked as he wanted to leave early. Tonight he would fly to Bali with Jessica first. He didn't care about Cassandra and her entourage. He was sure mom can handle it.“No sir, I have enough days off to spend with my children and wife at home!” he said.“Well, I entrust all work schedules and meetings on Mondays.” Lexi couldn't wait to go to Bali. 'Isn't that so much fun. I can set up various plans to make Jessica jealous' he thought."Yes Sir!” Arsene got out of the car and opened the door for Lexi.They both walked into the house. Mrs. Anna and Mr. Samuel, deliberately invited Arsene because there was something to discuss.Inside the house Lexi headed to his room on the second floor while Arsene headed to Mr. Samuel's office.Knock…Knock …Knock …Arsene knocked on the door.

CHAPTER 33KISSMARK“Lexi and Jessica are leaving tonight, Pa!” Mrs. Anna lay down next to her husband who was lying on the bed.“Yups, he told me!" Mr. Samuel said. Despite being suspicious of Lexi, he didn't want his wife to find out."Are you being honest to Cassandra? I'm not feeling well but I also don't want anyone to interfere with Jessica and Lexi's wedding,” Mrs. Anna said. She didn't know when Jessica and Lexi's wedding would be officially announced.“No Ma, we better obey Lexi and Jessica at this time! Later when Jessica is really pregnant we will announce the wedding officially soon! How?” Mr. Samuel was pleased.“Well, I will keep it a secret from Cassandra!" Mrs. Anna said. She had talked to Lexi about what she was going to tell Cassandra about Jessica but Lexi forbade it.“When are you going to Bali?" Mr. Samuel asked before deciding to sleep."Cassandra has booked four plane tickets for Saturday night, but mama doesn't know that Lexi has boarded first!" Mrs. Anna stil
CHAPTER 34AM I JEALOUS?“So tell me what really happened with Jessica!” Beryl urged. He had just arrived at Cassandra's house after three days of his friend never returning a message or receiving a phone call from him.“I don't know, I don't have the right to tell you!" Cassandra said. Her father, telling her not to get too involved about Jessica and Lexi.“Chelsea, we have been friends since childhood, I beg you! Please tell me all about Jessica! Why doesn't she live in an orphanage anymore? Where is Jessica now? Who was the man who picked up Jessica! You really have to tell me!” Beryl was obviously very angry. He was angry with Chelseq and Jessica. His two friends acted as if they were keeping something very big secret.“I, I have no right to tell you. Let Jessica tell you by herself," Cassandra softly lowered her head to signal to Beryl not to ask her anymore.“Then tell me where Jessica is now! I have to meet him now!" Beryl glanced at the watch in his hand that was already show
Chapter 35I am Jealous“Am I Jealous?"Jessica asked herself. Her hands moved to throw away the blanket that covered her body. Although the air conditioner was on, her body felt hot when she remembered Lexi gave attention to Cassandra. It made her head feel dizzy. “No, I'm not jealous!" She refused it.Then, she went to pick up her phone whose battery was actually low. It turned out that there were dozens of messages from Chelsea that came in. Jessica immediately called Chelsea."Hello!” Chelsea said across the phone."Chelsea, I have something to ask you!"Jessica was reckless. She had never felt that annoying feeling before."What's up Jess? Emm— Where are you staying?" Chelsea interrupted. Beryl had arrived in Bali, on the same plane as Cassandra. Beryl was still at the airport because he didn't know where to go to find Jessica."I'm at Avaya Resort," she replied wondering.“What is the room number?" Chelsea urged. It was a pity that Beryl didn't get to meet Jessica.“406!”“Beryl
