"Yes, that's my husband. He seems to be busy," Jesslyn replied flatly. Her hands were still busy flipping through the menu book and acting like she didn't care that her husband was nearby. "You don't want to go over to your husband?" provoked Sarah while leering at Joe, who was still busy discussing with Lucas. "No. He must be busy discussing something with his business partner. I don't have the right to disturb him," Jesslyn evaded. Sarah nodded and finally shut up after Jesslyn showed no interest in the topic of conversation she was building. However, her eyes could not move from Joe's figure, who looked very dashing in her eyes. "By the way, where do you know my husband from, Sarah? I don't think I've ever introduced you to my husband before, have I?" asked Jesslyn while looking at Sarah with a probing look.Hearing the sharp question, Sarah immediately faltered. She tried her best not to look nervous and suspicious in front of Jesslyn by pretending to clear her throat, then wi
Joe and Jesslyn rode together to the Skyland Company, leaving a sulking Sarah in the parking lot of the private park. "You have gone a bit too far, Jess. You should have seen Sarah's expression earlier. She looked furious at you," Joe reprimanded. "Let her be. Now and then, she must feel what it's like to be ignored by others." Jesslyn smacked her lips. "She's the kind of girl who always manages to get other people's attention, so she never thinks twice about flirting with you because she thinks she'll tempt you. CK, she's the kind of bitch who will do anything to get what she wants." Joe leered sideways, flashing a seductive expression at his wife. "Are you jealous?" he prodded."Of course!" Jesslyn gave Joe a fierce look. "You should be happy that I'm trying to keep her away from you. Or... you actually like Sarah, so you're not bothered by her flirtatious behaviour, are you?" she accused. Joe hurriedly shook his head before his wife could misunderstand him further. "Of course n
Joe contacted Lucas, asking to meet with the man again after their encounter a few hours ago in the same park where Sarah and Jesslyn used to meet. "Yes. I'm going to Seattle Group right now. Do you have some free time? Because there is an important matter I want to discuss with you regarding my request regarding the transfer of SkyLand Company's ownership," Joe asked. "Alright, then I'll wait for you to come here," Joe said again after a long silence. He had just finished listening to Lucas's counter-argument on the other side of the phone. Joe switched off the phone and placed it on the table before Jesslyn, who had been watching her husband's every move. "How was it? Are you going to Seattle Group right now?" Jesslyn asked the question that had been rattling around in her brain. "Lucas said he'll come here because he happens to be on his way to SkyLand Company. So, let's wait for his arrival," Joe replied.Jesslyn nodded. Without waiting long, she moved her seat to the sofa in
Joe stared at Lucas with eyes full of confusion, but then those eyes turned to horror as he realized something from the sentence the man he was talking to had just uttered. "Did Grandpa come to see you, Lucas?" guessed Joe with his heart racing. Lucas nodded. "Just as you predicted. That man asked me to kick you out of SkyLand Company. He even lured me with so much money that he would invest in the Seattle Group as long as I helped him to make you poor," he explained. Joe wasn't too surprised when he heard that, as he had predicted the purpose of Kevin's long absence. "I had expected him to do something like this. But I'm amazed because it turns out that he came to you himself and dared to offer cooperation to bring me down openly," Joe said. Lucas cast a pitying look at the other man. He didn't think that in this world, there was someone who had to go against his own family to maintain the success he had worked so hard to achieve."Therefore, I prefer to leave SkyLand Company to
"How's the business going now, Dad? Is everything running smoothly?" asked Jesslyn while paying attention to every inch of her father's selling place. "Not bad, at least the profit I get can fulfill my needs." Ben also looked at his place of business with a joyful gaze. "The customers started to shop here regularly after 2 weeks since the first time this business was established. So, for the early days of opening the business yesterday, I didn't get much profit. But now it's not bad, because the buyers are also starting to become regular buyers and of course that brings its own benefits for me," He continued to explain. Hearing about the progress of the business that her father is running, Jesslyn was naturally very happy, especially when she saw the changes in her father's body, which started to get fatter from the last time she saw him a few weeks ago. "Thank goodness. Hopefully this business will be more successful and Dad can buy whatever you wants later without having to bothe
Zack and Rosetta began to put on a charade. They were being nice to Jesslyn to win her sympathy and allow her to stay in their old home again. "Jesslyn, please forgive us for being mean to you. Mommy and Zack really feel bad for you and your dad." Jesslyn looked at those who suddenly came to her house with a probing look. "Yes, I forgive you guys. But you have to leave here right now as a condition." "Jesslyn, thank you for forgiving us. We know we did a lot wrong to you. But, we can't just leave from here. Please let us stay here again." Zack pleaded with Jesslyn. They hoped that she would feel compassion and accept them back."Yes, dear. Aren't you sorry to see us stranded on the streets." Rosetta also pleaded with Jesslyn. She even lied by saying that she was stranded, even though without her knowing, Jesslyn already knew that her mother was living in Lucas' house with Noona. She did all this because she couldn't stand living at Lucas' place and having to do all the hous
Zack and Rosetta returned to Lucas' house. There was already Noona who looked angry and immediately scolded the two. She threatened to kick them out of Lucas' house for daring to leave without permission. Noona began to pressure the two, she even yelled at Zack which made the man lose control because his emotions after being kicked out by Ben earlier had not disappeared completely. "Where have you guys been?! I've been looking for you!" Noona was angry at those who had just appeared in front of them. Zack and Rosetta looked at Noona flatly. Instead of a warm welcome home, they were yelled at. "Tell me where you two are from! I told you to tell me when you leave! Are you dumb, huh?!" Noona snapped back at the two of them. "Can you talk later? I just got home and feel very tired now," Zack said to his wife. "Right. You don't know we just got home and tired? By the way, Wherever we're going is none of your business." This time Rosetta spoke up. Noona rounded her eyes. How
Jesslyn excused herself from Ben's house to go back to her apartment. Actually, she wanted to spend more time with her Daddy but she needed to rest before going back to her normal activities. "I'm going back to my apartment today, Dad. Daddy doesn't mind being alone at home. The servants will be back this afternoon." The servants would return this afternoon so her Daddy would not feel lonely after she returned home. "Actually, Daddy still wants you here but Daddy also knows that Daddy's daughter is very busy," her Daddy said while stroking her head. "Hehe... I'm sorry, Dad, that Jesslyn is so busy." Jesslyn felt guilty about leaving her Daddy. "It doesn't matter. Daddy understands that you're busy for the good of all of us. Daddy is ashamed that he hasn't been able to make you happy." "Who says Daddy hasn't made me happy. I'm already very happy with Daddy. So, Daddy doesn't need to feel that way." Jesslyn walked into her Daddy's arms. Her Daddy hugged his daughter tightly.
