Mr. Marcus glared at her fiercely, thinking that this woman really didn't understand romance. She had spoiled even the slightest romantic atmosphere. She was a master of ruining romance. He thought that recently he must have been sleep-deprived and unfocused, which was why he accidentally developed feelings for this woman.Conniving, sharp-tongued, lustful, and driven by money. Could she be considered typical lust and greed?Jessica trembled as she looked at the large bouquet of red roses, her lips twitching a few times. Mr. Marcus needed proper education. Money shouldn't be spent like this. One hundred thousand for a bouquet of roses was an incredibly high cost for pursuing a girl.Mr. Marcus sat heavily on the hospital bed and grabbed her arm, examining it. The wounds were all superficial and had healed almost completely after several days of care, though some deeper wounds still looked quite terrifying. The rest of the wounds had stopped bleeding."Hey, be gentle!" Jessica teased.
"You've been fighting with him for so many years. You should know him well. Do you think he has any reason to act now?" Jessica calmly analyzed, "The Walker Family Group and the Gootal Group are completely unrelated, he doesn't need to do this. Do you really believe what Quincy said, that this is just business, and he deliberately formed an alliance with the Walker Family Group to bring down the Noblefull Group?"Mr. Marcus gave a cold smile. "Bringing down the Noblefull Group has always been the Lee Family's goal, isn't it?""Although that's true, I still think something is off. Hey, don't be so biased against him. Use your brain!" Jessica patted Mr. Marcus on the head. "This is not a joke.""So what if I'm biased against him?" Mr. Marcus confidently shouted back, showing his dominance. He didn't need anyone questioning him.Jessica fell silent.What a temper!"Oh, so you continue to be biased. Can you resist the Walker Family Group and the Gootal Group joining forces? Don't end up l
It was a protracted battle between Noblefull Group and Gootal Group!According to Jessica's analysis of the situation, she predicted that within one week, one side would be at a disadvantage. Then, the previously evenly matched stalemate would be broken, with one side losing momentum and gradually retreating. Unless they found a more powerful ally to salvage the situation, they would certainly be rapidly disintegrated and engulfed by the other side.However, a week passed, and the two sides were still evenly matched, neither of them taking a step back.They were engaged in a strange kind of standoff!The crisis of the Walker Family had been resolved, with the support of Gootal Group. Although the Walker Family Group was severely weakened, they still had a relatively complete management system, a healthy operating system, and abundant sources of funding. It was not a problem for them to gradually recover.Now, it was mainly the battle between Noblefull Group and Gootal Group, and it wa
Jessica returned home and encountered a very unfortunate incident - she had forgotten to bring her keys!The apartment originally had two keys, one carried by Henry and the other by her. However, since she was in the hospital and Mr. Marcus moved in, he took her key.Since Jessica and Mr. Marcus commuted together for work, it didn't matter who had the key. Besides, Henry always came back earlier than them, so the key was practically useless.But today, Mr. Marcus and Susan had an important meeting regarding a capital increase, so they left early. Jessica, who had flexible working hours due to her leg injury, left work early as well. As a result, she found herself frustrated and trapped outside the door.Checking her watch, she realized that Little Henry wouldn't be back for another hour. Jessica, leaning on her crutches, couldn't bear to wait by the door for an hour with only one leg. It would surely be exhausting.She walked out of the neighborhood and crossed the road to a park, sol
Saxon was tall and handsome, while Miss Jessica was pure and radiant. The scene of him holding her was truly captivating and picturesque, like a prince holding his princess.Passersby turned their heads, some even took out their cameras to snap pictures of them.Jessica deeply… regretted it!She felt like a monkey in a zoo, being observed and admired.A man so beautiful is truly tragic.Saxon gently placed Jessica on a bench in the park, put her cane aside, and let her sit comfortably. His actions were smooth and tender, as if he did this often."Thank you!" Jessica thanked him softly, smiling and looking down. She pinched her aching leg, feeling better, but still a bit painful. Walking was still a struggle."What happened to your leg?" Saxon sat beside her, showing no intention of leaving, and asked Jessica with a concerned tone."A car accident!" Jessica said softly. He was gentle and kind and had just helped her out. "It was probably just a cramp."In principle, all her weight was
"But I genuinely care about you! I truly love you!" Saxon confessed with a melancholic and affectionate tone.Jessica finally understood why in Italian movies, when men confess their love to women, they always have a melancholic expression.As if to say, "I love you, and if you don't love me, I will immediately commit suicide."So dramatic!Miss Jessica smiled, looking at the handsome man in front of her. He was truly extraordinary.First, being confessed to by a handsome foreign guy on the street was a great ego boost for women. Secondly, this guy's attire alone indicated that his status was definitely not ordinary, unless he was involved in robbery. Third, this handsome guy was a one-of-a-kind.But unfortunately, he chose the wrong person to confess to."Sir, I don't think any sensible woman would choose you as a lover," Jessica said calmly, her eyebrows showing intelligence. "To meet me for less than ten minutes and say you love me, feels too cheap to me. One day, when you meet ano
Henry opened the door, arranged the fruits and vegetables, then returned to the living room, sitting across from Jessica. Slowly, he said, "He was a prince of the piano since he was a child, Mama. Anyway, whenever you see him in the future, just keep him as far away as possible! He can easily investigate Dad's whereabouts, so he knows about your relationship with him. He has malicious intentions. Hmph!"Jessica didn't need Henry's reminder. She knew she should always avoid such a dangerous person. But Saxon suddenly appeared in front of her, asking her to be his lover. What kind of trick was he playing out?He knew she belonged to Mr. Marcus. Could it be that he wanted to tempt her into falling for him and hurt Mr. Marcus?If that were the case, he was truly a bad guy. If two men were at war, they should rely on their real skills. What's the point of involving women?"Baby, do you have any opinions about Saxon?""Of course!" Henry furrowed his brow deeply and said in a deep voice, "Fi
"Mummy, just don't let Daddy find out what you've been thinking, otherwise, I bet you'll be in for a miserable punishment," Henry chuckled elegantly. His dear father's temper, if he knew what she was thinking, he definitely pounce on Mummy and demonstrate his straight identity and superlative sexual prowess.Even a child would know that!Jessica shook Henry and kicked him, "You won't betray me, right?""Of course not, I love you so much, Mummy!""You've betrayed me numerous times!" Jessica stated a fact expressionlessly.Henry, "...Illusion!"Jessica snorted, "Keep your mouth shut, don't let him find out!""What shouldn't I know?" The door opened, and Mr. Marcus' handsome figure floated at the doorway. He strolled in leisurely, tossed the car keys onto the table, and loosened the tie that had been binding him all day. "What were you discussing?"Henry made a quick decision, stood up, and drifted into the kitchen. He was going to cook!Jessica hugged her teddy bear and remained silent.
