Jessamine hesitated when she reached for the handle.Through the glass, she could see Amy wearing a hospital gown. The latter was leaning against the bed and gazing affectionately at the man beside her.Meanwhile, Thaddeus was diligently peeling an orange with his head lowered.He detested peeling things, so he never ate shrimp, crabs, or anything that required tedious peeling.

Eastlake Villa belonged to Jessamine's mother before her marriage to Colin, so Colin had no connection to it.Before Jessamine's mother passed away, their family used to live there. The place held all the memories of her mother. Naturally, Jessamine wanted to reclaim the house.But did she hear it correctly? The house was now under Amy's name?Jessamine tried to control her emotions. "I agree to the divorce. I'll divorce on the same day as the ownership transfer."Colin's patience wore thin, and he raised his voice. "Why is it so difficult for you to grant this favor? Do you really want your sister dead? Will you be happy only when she dies?""Whether she's dead or not has nothing to do with me. She brought it upon herself. No one forced her.""It's just a man. Why are you so petty?

It seemed like love was in the air."Alright, you can go get your medicine."Noah put the ice pack in Jessamine's palm, and whispered, "Stay here and keep the ice pack on your face. I'll go get the medicine."Jessamine turned to Samuel and asked, "Dr. Watson, I still have a bit of ringing in my ears. Do I need a separate prescription for it?"Upon hearing this, Noah suddenly roared, "Who hit you so hard?"Jessamine was a bit frightened when she looked at Noah's face twisted with anger. In her memory, he had always been gentle and polite, so she couldn't imagine him being capable of such rage."It was Colin. He took out his grudge against me," she calmly replied."Did you fight back?"Jessamine shook her head, looking like a child who had been bullied. "I couldn't."Samuel silently thought to himself that this Colin person should probably not go out for the next few days. Noah wa

After a few seconds, the phone was answered.Without giving Amy a chance to speak, Thaddeus coldly warned her. "Amy, if you're calling to plead on Colin's behalf, don't even bother. Let's not risk ruining our friendship of over a decade for this matter. "Colin had clearly crossed my bottom line, and I'm already being very lenient with him by just withdrawing my investment." Amy slumped on the hospital bed, momentarily at a loss for words.When Thaddeus mentioned that Colin had crossed his bottom line, didn't that mean his bottom line was Jessamine?Amy felt like she had been kicked in the shins.

The comments below the online article were filled with speculations about the company.She was about to reply to a comment when her phone suddenly rang. It was Colin.Upon answering the phone, she heard a grunt, and a voice followed. "Jessie, you finally picked up the phone!"There seemed to be several people on the other end of the line. She heard Colin cry out in pain, and a harsh male voice barked, "Say what you're supposed to say!"Colin hurriedly agreed and cried as he spoke, "Jessie, I know what I did was wrong. I'm so sorry."Following that, there was another cry of pain, along with the crisp sound of a slap. "Please, stop hitting me! I know what I did was wrong!" Colin pleaded desperately.The man with the harsh voice spoke up again, "Confess your wrongdoing to Ms. Patton.""Jessie, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have hit you. Ple

At the CEO's office at Holt Jewelry, a thick stack of printouts was placed on Thaddeus' desk. Each page contained information on individuals with "Malcolm" in their names. He had just casually flipped through a few pages, but he already felt annoyed.Who was the person Jessamine couldn't let go of in her dreams?Unexpectedly, there were more than tens of thousands of people in the whole country with such a mundane name. Regardless, it didn't seem like Malcolm was a big shot."Send these lists to the marketing department and have them call each and every one of the names on it," Thaddeus ordered. "If there's any suspicious information, set them aside."Jordan hurried over and picked up the stack of printouts from the desk. As he was leaving, Thaddeus reiterated, "Make sure to complete all these calls tonight."Jordan silently empathized with his colleagues in the marketing department.

Others chimed in, "That's right! We should find Lolly first, and then we can negotiate the terms. Everyone has their weak points. If we manage to locate her, we have already succeeded halfway."Thaddeus thought the idea was reasonable and immediately asked Jordan to draft the email."Greetings, Ms. Lolly. Holt Jewelry is hosting a charity gala next weekend, which will include a jewelry auction. The auction items are shown in the attached images. If you are interested, could you please share your contact details? We'll promptly mail you an admission ticket."As soon as the email was sent, he immediately summoned several employees from the company's IT department to monitor the situation.
