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.
"Good boy, go buy a pillow in the market!" Jessica said coolly. It would be faster to dream about it. Just like that, Mr. Marcus, you're proposing too easily!Mr. Marcus stared at her coldly, attempting to overpower her with his oppressive presence.Jessica stared back defiantly, refusing to back down!Sparks flew in the air for a moment.Mr. Marcus felt a great sense of defeat. "What exactly do I have to do for you to agree to marry me?""You have a terrible attitude when proposing!" Miss Jessica reminded him calmly. "Have you ever seen someone propose with such a look?""What kind of attitude do you want?" Mr. Marcus asked patiently, grinding his teeth."At the very least, a candlelight dinner, 9999 roses, and get down on one knee!""You go buy a pillow in the market too!""Oh, let's buy it together!" Jessica replied casually. She couldn't understand why they had drifted from discussing Saxon to talking about marriage.They were off-topic!At that moment, the doorbell rang.Henry, w
Henry raised his thumb and praised, "Mommy, you're really amazing!"Mr. Marcus sat on the sand with a gloomy face. The thought of Saxon, that pervert, leering at Jessica made him feel as uncomfortable as if he had swallowed a fly.What should he do to make this pervert lose interest in Jessica?Deep in thought, Mr. Marcus's brows raised and furrowed alternately. Miss Jessica sat across from him, as if she was enjoying a silent film, quite amusing.Henry served the cooked food. It seemed like neither his mom nor dad had much interest in eating. With his rosy hand resting on his chin, he observed what his dad would do."Miss Jessica, starting tomorrow, dress more old-fashioned!" Mr. Marcus thought this was a feasible suggestion. He lifted his gaze and said domineeringly, "Wear a complete set of business suits, the old-fashioned kind, very conservative and outdated. Tie your hair up and wear a pair of black framed glasses, got it?"Henry burst out laughing. Uh... could it really work thi
The evening breeze blew quietly, chilly.A bright full moon hung high in the sky, its clear and cold moonlight flowing over the entire sky of W City like water.Mr. Marcus stood alone on the balcony, his cold gaze fixed on the dark colors. Moonlight gave his figure a layer of chilly silhouette, indifference, coldness, and something slightly sharp seeped out from him, giving people the feeling of the ruthless aura belonging to a dark king.Saxon's words stirred up the most intense animosity deep in Mr. Marcus's heart.That man seemed to understand him quite well, knowing exactly what to do to provoke Mr. Marcus's deepest ferocity!Jessica had just finished playing a round of video games with Henry and had come out of her study. As she passed by her study, she saw Mr. Marcus's cold figure standing under the moonlight, giving off an excessively cold feeling.Her heart twitched slightly, she knocked on the door, but Mr. Marcus didn't react.After hesitating for a moment, Jessica entered w
