Zack exclaimed in delight when he saw the wad of money on the table. His eyes lit up, and he quickly picked up the money and kissed it repeatedly. "Where did Mom get this much money? Didn't Jess refuse to give us money yesterday?" Zack asked, surprised.

"I got it from Joe," Rosetta replied briefly.

"Joe?" repeated Zack in shock. "Got the money from Joe? How come?" He asked again.

Rosetta began to tell him everything from the beginning. Starting from Joe's arrival at their house to the offer that she immediately agreed to when she heard how much she would get if she accepted the offer.

"So, Mom signed the file Joe gave to you? What's in that document?" Zack looked straight at his mother.

Rosetta shrugged her shoulders. She honestly did not care much about the document's contents, as all that mattered to her right now was money, money, and money.

"Mom didn't read the contents of the document at all?!" Zack's mouth opened wide. He tapped his forehead a few times after hearing firsthand t

    Zack and Rosetta fell silent simultaneously, both gulping with difficulty after hearing Joe's words, asking them to return the money given to them."But, you already gave the money to us. So, that money is ours. You have no right to it anymore," Rosetta held one of the sofa cushions tightly.Joe, who saw his mother-in-law's behavior, furrowed his brow until he saw money poking out of the corner of the cushion.Regardless of Rosetta's expression or her continued refusal, Joe pulled out the sofa cushion and smiled when he saw the money hidden inside."Hey, that's my money!" Rosetta wanted to get up and reclaim the money, but Joe had anticipated everything from the start. "If Mom wants to get this money back, then just agree to the document's contents. But if Mom disagrees with the key points written in the document, then I'll take this money, and you won't get anything."Rosetta stopped moving, and her body was so stiff she couldn't do anything but stay still while staring hatefully at

    Joe and Jesslyn said goodbye after no more rebuttals came from Rosetta or Zack's lips. "We left. It was nice seeing you guys again after forcibly evicting us and the drama you put on to get money from me," Jesslyn said sarcastically."It's also nice to see you again, a kid who doesn't want to help her own family out of trouble," Rosetta retorted equally sarcastically.Her lips pursed in annoyance when she saw the attitude of her daughter, who still looked sarcastic because she was still annoyed with the fake approach she had made earlier.Jesslyn snorted, then walked away without waiting for Joe, who had been watching the interaction between the mother-daughter pair.After Joe and Jesslyn's departure, Rosetta and Zack, who initially supported each other, were again at odds over the money given to Noona. One side insists on asking for the money back and returning all the money to Joe. While the other side also insists on continuing to accept the offer given by Joe, whatever the risk."D

    Jess strode confidently into the Seattle Company building. With a suit that clung beautifully to her body, she was able to mesmerize all the eyes of the people who were there.Of the new position she received, she immediately entered the elevator and pressed the top number according to the room she would occupy.Arriving in front of the room, Jesslyn knocked on the door until someone invited her to enter."Pleased to meet you, Mrs. Jesslyn," Lucas said after the two sat across from each other.Jesslyn nodded, then replied, "I am honored to have been allowed to meet such a great man like you, Mr. Lucas.""Hahaha, you don't need to praise me like that, Mrs. Jesslyn. You are just as great as I am," Lucas replied.Jesslyn only responded with a faint smile, and she wasn't used to overacting when dealing with people with higher positions than her. She wasn't the type to curry favor with others to gain sympathy. She was a woman with a firm stance who did not hesitate to utter harsh words to

    Jesslyn was taken aback. She wanted so badly to respond to the staff's words, but ultimately, she decided to keep quiet and assume it was all just the wind."Hold yourself, Jess. Don't get provoked. You're still a new employee; don't create problems that make you lose your job once again," Jesslyn encouraged herself.Ignoring the gazes of some of the staff, who looked sarcastically at her, Jesslyn walked confidently.Sentence after sentence that sounded very painful entered her eardrums, making Jesslyn stroke her chest."Don't get emotional, Jesslyn. We'd better get out of here."Widening her footsteps, Jesslyn arrived in front of the elevator quickly and immediately pressed the button to take her to the floor where her room was."Mrs. Jesslyn, you have been asked by Mr. Lucas to come to his office immediately," Joshua relayed the news he had brought, as the elevator he was about to take turned out to have Jesslyn in it.Some of the staff who were in the same elevator with the two of

    Jesslyn and Emily were called into Joshua's room. They are evaluated, and finally Emily gets the first warning letter, while Jesslyn only gets a reprimand because the one who started the fight here was Emily, so she gets the most severe punishment. Joshua looked at them sharply, and they could only bow before the secretary of their boss. "You've working together. Aren't you ashamed of making a scene in the office?" "Jesslyn started it first, Sir." Emily defended herself while Jesslyn was still silent, letting the woman say anything about her. "Emily, you are an ordinary staff, and Jesslyn is your superior, and you started the fight first. Are you out of your mind?" "Sir, but I wouldn't have started if she hadn't."Joshua shook his head. "Jesslyn, are you going to keep quiet and look down like that, huh?!" "Defending yourself is pointless, Sir. You can judge for yourself. If I'm wrong in the end, I'll take responsibility."Joshua looked at Emily again. "Emily, since you s

    Joe and some of the female staff he cursed at became the center of attention, as it happened at the same time as the employees were leaving. They were all silent after Joe swore at them. "Why are you just silent? Haven't you guys been good at saying many bad things about her?" Joe cursed them all for daring to say such things to Jesslyn. Lucas, who happened to have just returned from an important meeting, immediately approached Joe and asked and he explained what he had heard, and Lucas' response was the same as him. "What's going on, Joe? Why is it crowded like this?" asked Lucas, who immediately approached them all."Do you know what they said to Jesslyn?" asked Joe, still angry. "What did they say?" asked Lucas, who still didn't understand this situation. "They said Jesslyn was a whore, sneaky, a sycophant, all kinds of things. If you were in my position, would you say nothing? While what they say is not necessarily true," said Joe, saying what he heard from all the staff

    Joe asked Lucas for a private room to settle the matter. He asked Emily for further explanation, especially where she got the information about why Jesslyn was fired. "Lucas, I'd like to ask you to settle this matter privately. There are things I want to ask Emily further," Joe said, asking Lucas for permission to take Emily to a private room. Emily, who heard this, was surprised. She thought she would be fired immediately after discovering she was the culprit. But why now, Joe would even take her to a private room? "Yes, Joe, use my room to solve this problem. And you, Emily, I will not help you with anything anymore. All decisions are in Joe's hands. If he wants to fire you, then that's what you'll get," He said. Emily had just resigned after this, if she had to be fired. Her hopes were slim to keep working here."Yes, Lucas. Thank you," Joe said to Lucas for letting him borrow his room to solve his problem with Emily. "You're welcome, Joe." "Emily, you're coming

    After yesterday's incident, Jesslyn went to the office again. Although she had wanted to apply for a leave of absence, it wasn't fair that she didn't dare to appear in front of all of them. Finally, Jesslyn still chose to go to work even though Joe had also told her to take leave. "Are you sure you want to go to the office today? If you want to, you can take leave for today." Jesslyn shook her head. "No, Joe. I want to work professionally. I've got a lot to do at the office." Jesslyn got out of the car. Joe also encouraged Jesslyn. "Be strong, honey, if there's anything. You tell me so I can take care of them." Jesslyn smiled and nodded as she quickly waved her hand and entered the office.*** At first, Jesslyn thought that after Emily was punished, her work life would change for the better. However, everything remained the same. "Huft...." Jesslyn exhaled harshly. When she saw Emily, the woman still had a hateful look. It turned out that the woman didn't seem to be deterre

    Jonathan accelerated his footsteps towards the place his father had indicated. His heart was beating so fast it was hard for him to hold back his anger towards the man who had deceived him. "Yesterday, you got away because I was still kind to you, Mark. But not this time. I will make you feel what is called hell on earth!" Jonathan was determined. With one step left to the warehouse where his captive was kept, Jonathan tried to control himself. He inhaled and exhaled many times to keep his emotions and expressions under control, so Mark would have no opportunity to fight him later. "Wow, didn't I see it wrong? The person I thought had gone to the other side of the world is still loyal to this country," Jonathan chuckled. Not forgetting, he showed a cruel grin to intimidate his opponent. Mark, who Jonathan had already tortured, was naturally very scared now. If he were free from the shackles that bound him at the moment, he would indeed run as far away from the man as possible. "W

    Joe visits Oddie after not seeing the man for a long time. The relationship between the two of them was quite good, especially after Sarah died and Oddie decided to consider Jesslyn as his daughter. And now, Joe's purpose for coming to see Oddie was to discuss what was happening at Skyland Company. He wanted to get some advice that might help him to overcome the problems that were happening, especially since the man was quite an influential person and had a lot of experience. "So, the news about SkyLand Company going downhill is true?" Oddie asked. He, whose condition had improved, took a sip of tea served by one of the servants in his house. "Yes, Mr. Oddie. I would like to hear your opinion on the problems that SkyLand Company is facing. Moreover, you are one of the investors in my company, so you might be able to give some thoughts from your perspective as an investor," Joe pleaded. "Call me dad, Joe. Aren't we family now? Don't be so formal when we're not in the office," Oddie

    Joe returned to work as usual, and Cristine welcomed her boss with great joy. After a long time of authorizing Cristine to take care of the company, Joe finally sat down in his work chair as he began his task of solving the many problems that had befallen Skyland Company lately. "What about the investors who have withdrawn their funds, Cristine? Are they willing to come back and entrust their money to SkyLand Company after I start working again?" Joe asked Cristine who was handing over some important files that required the man's signature. "No, Mr. Joe." Cristine took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly to ease the tightness attacking her chest. "I've investigated everything, Mr. Joe. And there seems to be a reason why they withdrew the investment." Hearing the explanation from his secretary, Joe looked interested. He stopped what he was doing for a moment, then looked at Cristine and gave her the code to explain further."When you handed over the main task to me to lead SkyLan

    Aaron and Esther left Zack who was still faithful to shouting incoherently, berating and insulting Aaron so that the man would come back and deal with his current behavior. Unfortunately, Aaron was not provoked at all. He didn't care about Zack's screams, and neither did Esther. After coming out of the room that held Zack, Esther immediately dropped her body onto the sofa located not far away. She looked tired. "It turns out that dealing with someone like Zack is tiring too, huh? I didn't expect him to still be able to fight back when he's in such a tight spot." Esther chuckled, as if she had forgotten what Zack had done to her earlier. "Zack is like that. Why do you think Joe chose to kick him out of the house instead of forgiving him?" Aaron narrowed his eyes, then snapped his fingers as Esther looked back at him with furrowed brows. "Yep, Zack is the type of person who doesn't know himself. That's why, Joe would rather let him go than have to live with him for the rest of his l

    Joe took a deep breath, he asked Cristine to go home first and he would think about what he would do next. Ben, who was visiting his daughter at the time, immediately approached Joe and patted him on the shoulder. "You can focus on your work again, Joe. As for Jesslyn, let me take care of her. When she regains consciousness, then I'll let you know." "But, Dad?" Joe wanted to argue. He wanted to be by his wife's side at all times. He doesn't want that when she woke up, he wouldn't be by her side. Joe knew that Jesslyn would be devastated to learn that their future child had died in her womb, and he wanted to be by her side to give her encouragement and strength. "There's no refusal, Joe. This is all for the good of everyone." Ben tried to open Joe's mind. "Think about it, if your company were to go downhill, you would have to cut back on employees, which would affect the families of those employees because the head of their family would no longer have a job. In addition, your finan

    "We're sorry, your future child cannot be saved. Mrs. Jesslyn's condition is also still not improving, she is still in a critical condition and will have to be admitted into the ICU after this. This is because she was brought to the hospital too late, and the patient has already lost a lot of blood." The doctor's explanation was like a sledgehammer hitting Joe's heart. He sat down, then covered his face. Not long after, there was a numb voice. The man was crying, because he had to get such a painful fact when his life was already on top. Joe didn't expect that this painful thing could happen to him. And this time he couldn't do anything but wait for his wife's condition to improve. "Joe." Rosetta approached her son-in-law and put her hand on his shoulder as a form of transferring strength and encouragement.Honestly, in the deepest corner of her heart, Rosetta felt very guilty for having to lie about the real reason for Jesslyn's fall. However, she was forced to do this so that Zac

    Rosetta rushed over to her daughter who had fallen and was moaning in pain. With shaky steps from shock, she struggled to help Jesslyn up. "Argh! It hurts!" Jesslyn cried out, her breathing labored and her face starting to turn pale. Rosetta was getting more and more worried and scared when she saw the condition that befell her daughter, her mind was too raging that she couldn't think clearly to find another way out so that her daughter could be saved immediately. Meanwhile, Zack, who didn't know that the impulse he was making had a very bad impact, immediately trembled. Instead of helping his sister, Zack pulled his mother and threatened the woman who had given birth to him. "Mommy, don't tell anyone what happened today! If you dare to do that, then I will act recklessly!" After saying that, Zack quickly left Rosetta who was rooted to the spot. The middle-aged woman's mind was raging, and her consciousness seemed to return after hearing Jesslyn moan for the last time before col

    "Yes, Mommy was expelled by Grandpa from the house after the resistance she put up. I'm actually confused as to why Mommy even fought back, even though from the stories of some of the bodyguards, since the beginning of Mommy's punishment she doesn't dare to fight Grandpa. Even facing or looking into Grandpa's eyes, Mommy doesn't dare." Jonathan explained. "Then, where did Aunty Quina go? Does she have somewhere to sleep tonight?" Joe asked, wanting to extract more information from his cousin. "I don't know because I didn't have time to ask Mommy either. Mommy chose to leave after being kicked out and she doesn't say anything either. But, I think Mommy must have somewhere to go whether it's a hotel or an inn to sleep tonight. Moreover, Grandpa also gave her money before Mommy." "So, that means aunty Quina didn't leave empty-handed, right?" Joe asked again, which was immediately greeted with a nod by Jonathan. "But why did Aunty prefer to go together with Aaron instead of looking fo

    Chap 165 : Expulsion

    Quina was sitting restlessly at the front of the cafe near her house that provided a place to relax for customers who wanted to enjoy the outdoor atmosphere. "Where's Aaron? What took him so long?" Quina chuckled in annoyance. Every now and then she took a sip of the coffee she had ordered in order to sit in that part of the cafe. After taking a sip of the coffee, Quina's face looked different. Her brow furrowed, and her eyes narrowed. "What is this coffee? It doesn't taste very good." Quina looked disgustedly at the coffee, then pushed the glass away from her body. "It turns out that I was right in my assumption that the food and drinks usually consumed by the lower middle class are very bad. I feel like spitting out the coffee I just drank." Quina said quite loudly, and her words provoked various reactions from the people around her, especially the visitors who were mostly students. Those who heard the inappropriate sentence immediately booed Quina openly and it made her even mo
