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. She suddenly felt like all her efforts in feigning illness, getting poked with needles, and sleeping on a lousy hospital bed were all in vain.She felt like he was slipping away from her, and that she wasn't as important to him as she had imagined. On the other end of the call, Thaddeus sat in his office with a solemn expression.Jordan had been looking forward to the CEO's return t

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. It seemed like those on the seventh floor were in for an all-nighter. That whole night, the Ho

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. As soon as Lolly replied, they would immediately check her IP address.There was no one in the country that Thaddeus couldn't find.…After chatting with Melissa and Shane in their group chat, Jessamine closed their chat and checked her email. Among the unread emails, there was one that stood out

Jordan used all his connections and quickly obtained a list of all the guests who had checked into the Aquavilla Hotel that night. The list was very detailed, with names, phone numbers, driver IDs, and occupations. On the way to the hotel, Thaddeus meticulously went through the list on his phone, eliminating anyone who seemed unlikely to be Lolly. Eventually, he narrowed the list to a few dozen people.…Jessamine had slept the entire afternoon at the Aquavilla Hotel, and now she was famished. Pregnancy had given her a poor appetite, but oddly enough, she was always hungry. At moments like that, her cravings intensified.She had a craving for the empanadas from the restaurant in the city center. In Zenville, that restaurant was the only one that served empanadas that matched her mother's cooking.Upon opening the food delivery app, she noticed her location was outside the delivery range. She had to add several dollars on top of the initial delivery fees before anyone would acce

Amara carefully sat on the couch across from Thaddeus, assuming an elegant posture."Excuse me, Mr. Holt, were you looking for me?"Before she could finish, Thaddeus gave Jordan a look, then returned his attention to his phone.Amara's heart sank a little.After that, Jordan did all the talking. He asked her a few questions she couldn't understand before dismissing her. Throughout the entire process, Thaddeus didn't even say a word to her.Following that, Jordan interviewed the second person, the third person, until the fourteenth person using the same method."Mr. Holt, we've eliminated everyone on the list, and we still can't find Ms. Lolly. Could it be that the IP address provided by Rowan was inaccurate?"Thaddeus rubbed his temples, refusing to believe that there was actually someone within the country he couldn't find.A moment later, Thaddeus stood up, buttoned his suit, and walked out of the hotel.Once outside, he lit a cigarette and took out his phone to make a call.

"You have a home, but you choose to stay in a hotel and eat cheap takeout. Are you trying to say I'm not feeding you enough?"Thaddeus was as sharp-tongued as ever.Jessamine was eating her empanadas and wasn't in the mood to argue with him. It would only ruin her appetite. She would never win against that sharp-tongued man. Why bother putting herself through the misery?Thaddeus immediately lay down on the bed, taking up the space where Jessamine had been sleeping. He casually picked up her phone and started to scroll through it.Jessamine felt a sense of peace as she ate her meal, no longer having to hear his voice. She turned to look at him and saw him staring intently at her phone. She immediately felt a sense of unease.There were too many secrets in the phone that she couldn't let him see."What are you looking at?"She tossed the fork aside and instinctively lunged onto the bed to grab the phone.Thaddeus wasn't about to let her succeed that easily. He was quick to rea

Jessamine's words made Thaddeus feel like he was doused with a bucket of cold water. The woman before him no longer resembled the proper housewife she used to be.What a scumbag of a woman!What kind of scummy words was this woman spouting?"What are you playing at? Are you having fun with Malcolm? What makes him so special? If you're feeling lonely, you can always come to me. I can give you anything you want, be it money or company."He was confident that he wouldn't lose to Malcolm, whether in terms of financial ability or certain aspects of a man's skills.He pinned her hands above her head, completely taking control of her. Then, his slightly calloused hand roamed over the sensitive areas of her body, sparking arousal with every touch.He knew exactly how to tease her, making her succumb to him.Jessamine suddenly felt parched, and she instinctively swallowed."Thaddeus, please stop …"She frowned slightly and turned her head away to avoid his kiss.Her reaction instantly
