"So, Miss Walker, who is the lucky man?" Marco smirked. With her arms crossed, Jessie grinned. He shouldn't be asking about her personal affairs. He has no right to know her condition or the identity of the person who impregnated her. "Seriously?" She gave him a look. "Look, Marco. Although I am grateful that you saved me, don't you feel as though you are meddling in too much of my personal affairs?" "I am just trying to…" Jessie interrupted and shook her head. "No. Marco, you shouldn't do this. The moment you left me at the restaurant without turning around, our story came to an end." She was furious. Really enraged, but has their tale really come to an end? There was a spark Jessie felt the minute she saw Marco when he saved her. It was the feeling she had when they were still together. "You made it happen, Jessie. If you had listened to me, I…" "No. Stop." Once more, she cut him off and laughed. "Can we not get into this, Marco? Marco, I'm content with my new life. I am a marr
Jessie noticed a strange aura surrounding her as soon as she entered the house. Strangely, Din Cooper wasn't in the living room waiting for her. She went to his room and slightly opened the door. She looked into the gloom with the light turned off. As Din slept, she could hear his breathing. Jessie locked the door before returning to her bedroom. She was concerned for Din. Normally, he would have waited for her to arrive and inquired as to her delay, but this time he didn't. It had never happened before, but he fell asleep before her. She looked at the photo she had taken from the doctor one last time, then opened her cupboard and put it inside. Regarding what had happened today, Jessie felt uneasy. The meeting with Marco and the sudden love she felt. She adjusted the curtain that was set up to cover her window and walked back to her bed to sit down. After giving it some thought, she suddenly started crying. Nothing seemed to be getting any simpler. She talked to her kids while res
Before Din headed to his company, he went to pay his lawyer a visit. "Thank you, Barrister. I am glad you had the time to meet with me today." "Since you already informed me of it, I have prepared your file." He handed Din a document that he had brought out of his bag. "You'll be a free man once your wife signs the divorce papers," the lawyer said. He is not interested in being a free man. He still wants Jessie to stay as his wife. "Thank you, Barrister." Din reached for the file with trembling hands. He was still struggling to accept that his relationship with Jessie had come to an end. "Let her sign it tonight, then send the file back once she has." Din rose to his feet and reached out to shake the attorney's hand. After saying "thank you," he departed for work. Taking the papers out of the envelope, he sat down in his chair. He reached for a pen and hesitated before signing. Jessie doesn't love him. Those words would not leave his mind. Khalid's claim that Jessie had gotten
"Mr. Anderson, thank you for the purse." From her chair, Jessie got up. Taylor had a point. Marco continued to be a jerk. "Jessie, calm down. Why are you rushing to leave?" "Because my husband, Din Cooper, is waiting for me." With her head held high, she spoke. "I have to hurry back home to meet my husband." "But I just got here. Can't we at least have a brief discussion while you have your seat?" "Marco, I have nothing more to say. You have my sincere gratitude for both saving my life and returning my purse to me. Is there a way I can pay you in exchange for your kindness?" While Marco remained silent, Jessie opened her bag and pulled out a large amount of cash. She placed the cash on the table and asked, "Will this do?" Marco turned to face her. She has a sizable fortune to pay back Marco for the cash he has spent on her and her family over the years. Jessie was grateful for what had transpired for her over the previous six months. She was thankful she met Din Cooper. She had
When Jessie noticed that it was already seven o'clock, she jumped out of bed. She put on one of the simplest dresses she could find in her closet and went to take a bath. She needed someone to talk to, and her mother was the only person who came to mind. To get some advice, she would return to her mother's home. She let her hair hang loosely on her shoulders and picked up her bag to leave before Din woke up. Jessie realized she had forgotten something crucial as she approached the door. She went back to her room to pick up the document and reached for a paper. Before completely leaving the house, Jessie wrote a letter to Din and set the envelope on the table. Din found it odd that Jessie wasn't at the dinner table when he awoke. Prior to her departure, he really wanted to enjoy one last breakfast together. He sighted the document that sat on the table and picked it up. When a piece of paper dropped from the envelope, Din bent down to pick it up and noticed Jessie's writing. Before
"When I'm done packing, I'll call you," As soon as she entered the mansion, Jessie hung up the phone. She closed the door behind her and approached the living room. She did not doubt that Din would have arrived at the office by this time. He is all work and no play. When Jessie thought back to her time in Cooper's mansion, a smile formed on her lips. Her mood improved as she noticed the joy on Din's grandfather's face. Because she had interrupted them, they both had to tell Abby they were talking about Din when in fact they were just chit-chatting about her. Even though she hadn't really said her goodbyes in a really clear way, she felt relieved that she at least got to say goodbye before she left. Except for her best friend, with whom she recently spoke on the phone, no one is aware that she is leaving Din. As per usual, Taylor yelled, but Jessie didn't feel the need to argue about Din with her friend. She was aware that, despite her best efforts to do better and make amends for
Jessie took one last look around the house before dragging her luggage out. As she got into the cab, she drew the window down, and the taxi drove off of the compound. She drove from Los Angeles to San Diego to book a hotel room because she doesn't want to see anyone for the ensuing two weeks.Even Taylor shouldn't be aware of her whereabouts. Taylor and Jessie had agreed to meet, and Taylor was supposed to assist her with packing back into the house, but Jessie had a change of heart. She didn't want to bother her friend any longer, so she left before Taylor arrived. Although Taylor may initially dislike her, she will grow to love her, and everything will be as normal as before. The car finally came to a halt in front of the hotel she had seen advertised on the internet and that had received a 5-star rating for how well it treated their customers. Funny thing was, one of Cooper's siblings owed it. If not within the family you are fleeing, where would be the best place to hide without
"Aunt Billy?" Still unable to believe what was happening, Jessie continued to look puzzled. How could Aunt Billy have gotten there so quickly after being informed of the news? As her hand was placed on her hips, she uttered, "Jessie. It is nice to see you again. Din's wife, you seem surprised to see me." They had first met at Cedric's wedding ceremony. Jessie had accidentally bumped into the older woman, who had red hair and fire eyes. Naturally, she terrifies everyone. She recalled how cold Aunty Billy was before James comforted his mother and revealed who Jessie really is.Jessie swallowed. "Aunt Billy Anne. Of course not. I'm not surprised. I am just happy I get to see you again." Upon returning to her senses, she went in for a hug right away. She felt awkward as she released herself. "What are you doing here?" "It's my hotel." "I know. I mean, what are you doing here at this time?" As soon as she entered the space, she turned to face Jessie. She was still looking at Jessie wi
