Then the two entered the company and went to Isabel's office. It was a room on the top floor, very spacious and luxurious.
Jessica and Isabel sat across from each other. They are all beautiful and talented girls, admired by many people. But Jessica looks more individual than Isabel. She wears a pair of trousers, high heels, and a blazer. Looks maturer and more elegant. Jessica's hair is also short, in contrast to Isabel's long hair. Jessica's face is light makeup, less fussy than Isabel's.
Isabel is a girl who pursues a glamorous style. It all reflects that, from her body shape to the clothes she wears. She wears an A-line skirt and a white shirt that is not the usual style but is stylized, with a bow at the neck and elastic at the wrist.
Jessica sat down, and she prepared what she was going to say. But at this moment, Isabel suddenly spoke:
"We can sign a contract."
"What?" Jessica was dumbfounded; she didn't understand what Isabel said until she handed over a thick set of contracts.
"We can do the signing now."
"Why... why? I mean, I haven't had time to tell you yet. Moreover, we haven't discussed the contract terms or the agreement between the two sides..."
Jessica stammered.
"No need." Isabel pushed the fountain pen toward her. Jessica was skeptical; she picked up the contract and began to read it carefully. Is there anything in this that deceives her? Or is this a trap? But all terms are reasonable.
Finally, Jessica took the pen and signed the contract, and at the same time, stamped it.
She still can't believe she can do this so quickly; she even feels her body floating in the clouds; it feels so surreal. But it's all true; Jessica happily took the contract, shook hands with Isabel, and prepared to leave.
Her family and her job are about to be saved, she was very excited inside.
However, as she touched the doorknob, she suddenly heard Isabel suddenly say:
"What do you think of Alex?"
A Beach Villa
Surrounded by only trees, no noise of traffic, no sounds of modern industry, fresh air filled with the smell of flowers, no scent of pollution or incense of industrialized sector, that's exactly what Alex is now.
Since he couldn't return home, he relaxed in a mountain villa. Anyway, recent events have troubled him a lot.
Alex stood at the glass door against the wall, seeing the full view from above. Since this villa is located on a mountain facing the sea, from here, he can see the grandeur of the vast ocean. In Alex's hand was a cup of coffee. At this moment, his phone suddenly vibrated, and the caller was Isabel.
"How's everything?" Alex picked up the phone.
"All matters relating to contracts and cooperation have been settled, Your Highness."
Isabel's voice was highly cheerful and playful. It's so different from her every day. This also made Alex laugh.
"Prince?"
"That's right, and you're my prince."
Jessica's House
After signing the contract, Jessica went back home to take a shower. Meanwhile, Mrs. Andrew always follows her to advise her to divorce Alex.
When Jessica was in the bathroom, Mrs. Andrew was outside and didn't stop babbling. She poured the water out so loud that it drowned out her voice. The image of Alex always appeared in her mind because of Isabel's question.
"Did Isabel know Alex? Or has Isabel heard about the gossips between Alex and her? " She thought in mind.
Then she shock her head and stopped thinking too much. It is the most important for her to hold a family meeting then.
Jessica got herself well dressed and went out, calling the manager to announce a shareholder meeting.
Locke Corporation's meeting room.
"We've been waiting for five minutes; what does Jessica want to do?"
"Is she trolling us? Does she see us as a joke?"
"It is disrespectful. We were allowed to get stood up."
All members of the Locke family and every vital company shareholder are gathered here just because they are about to hear the "important" information Jessica announces.
Jack slammed his fist on the table,
"I will banish her, you bastard."
Everyone agreed with Jack's opinion. No one defended Jessica. When they were talking about it at this moment, Mrs. Locke suddenly kicked the table, Jessica appeared, and they were all silent as if nothing had happened.
"I am here today to inform everyone that I have successfully partnered with Anderson Real Estate…"
"What?" Jessica had not finished her sentence when Jack interrupted her with a very harsh attitude. He looked at Jessica with a mocking and disbelieving look:
"Don't makeup stories like that. It's true that birds of a feather flock together. Your husband used fake diamonds, and now you're using fake contracts?"
Mrs. Fiona and Mr. Peter - Jack's parents, also showed disdain. Meanwhile, Jessica said nothing; she quietly took out the contract she had prepared and brought it to Mrs. Locke.
"Please see, this is the contract that I just signed with the vice president of Forest Group."
This is also what Mrs. Locke and everyone expected the most. She opened the contract and began to examine it. In front of everyone's expectant eyes, Mrs. Locke finally dropped the contract and concluded:
"Jessica did a great job."
This made Jessica in relief. At the same time, they also felt incredibly proud of their daughter. Contrary to that, the faces of the Jack family members were distorted.
"Grandma, as you promised." Jessica raised her voice seriously, and her eyes also turned to Jack.
"I need Jack to apologize."
Hearing this, Jack seemed to have swallowed a stone in his throat, unable to eat but spitting out. He immediately objected:
"No way, I absolutely wouldn't do that."
But Mrs. Locke immediately blocked his throat.
"Jack, you have to be brave and responsible as a man. You apologize to Jessica.""Grandma…" Jack wanted to continue arguing, but Mrs. Locke's cold, sharp gaze stopped the words that reached his throat. As a member of this family, Jack also has the most contact with Mrs. Locke, so he understands her personality better than anyone. Knowing that he could not do anything else, he had to stand up and bow his head to admit his mistake. "Sorry, Jessica. I'm sorry for saying bad things about you and your husband." Receiving Jack's apology, Jessica felt extremely satisfied, she turned to Mrs. Locke and said: "Next time, I will try harder to bring success to the company." "YES. You do very well. I look forward to your future achievements." Mrs. Locke gave Jessica a rare smile. Her face also relaxed with an expression of satisfaction. This made Jack's blood boil, and in his anger, he shouted: "Before worrying about work, you should take care of things at home first. Alex had an affair!" W
The next day, Jack and his father arrogantly come to Forest Group to meet Isabel to discuss the cooperation.When they got into the meeting room, they were surprised by Isabel's appearance. How sexy she is. More importantly, she is a powerful woman. "I'll marry her!" Jack couldn't help thinking, exposing a dirty expression.His father said to Isabel that the following cooperaion will be taken over by them rather than Jessica in the future. Isabel felt surprised that Jessica had failed in family struggles, but she dispised Jack's obscene expression. "Why didn't Jessica come today?" She asked severely. Jack then replied,"Jessica is sick, so I'll take over her position until she gets better." As soon as Jack finished speaking, Isabel stood up directly without saying more than two words. "I will just cooperate with her and wait until she recovers." After saying that, Isabel stood up and intended to leave the office. They are extremely surprised."We have signed the contract, will y
Drowning in her depression, Jessica locked herself in the room. She lay on the bed and stared at the ceiling, and fell asleep quickly. It was when her phone rang that she woke up.Jessica vaguely brought the phone screen to her eyes, the loud sound and the bright light making her want to throw the phone away immediately. But then the name displayed on the phone screen immediately woke her up. Jack?Jack? What did he call her for? To mock or tease her? To show off his achievements? It made Jessica annoyed while thinking about it. Everything was originally hers, but taken over by that bastard. She wanted to hang it up, but in the end, she pulled it through."What's up?"The other side, Jack kept silent."What is going on!? Say quickly." Her patience had run out.As if he was threatened by Jessica's aura, at this moment Jack stammered:"I… I want you to take over the position to cooperate with Forest…"Before Jack could finish his sentence, Jessica directly hung up. In her mind, she thou
This is big blow to Jessica, which quickly messed up her mind. She also remembered the question of Isabel, "Do you know Alex well?". Now this question is a tailor's cushion on her heart.She rushed into her room and picked up the phone, calling Alex. But the only response was the familiar voice of "cannot be connected".She didn't understand why it was unavailable. She wanted to know the truth if he had sold himself to help her out.Thinking of that, Isabel's eyebrow immediately frowned that she would rather him stay at home. However, she also regreted to slap him that night. She wanted to find him and make all things clear.Currently unable to contact him, Jessica thought where could he go. She knew that he had no relatives or friends in Kimberly. Suddenly, a name suddenly popped into her mind, Isabel. Maybe Alex was with her, or she must know something about him.Meanwhile, Alex is in the meeting room of the Forest Corporation, discussing with shareholders about acquiring all compa
The Sky Revolving RestaurantIt is for couples to go on a date, so the atmosphere is cozy and romantic. The main lighting of the restaurant is from candles and metal decorations.The space is filled with melodious symphony music as if to bring people into the world of fairy romance. At the same time, the light rose scent makes people feel extremely relaxed.Isabel has reserved a table here. She and Alex entered the restaurant, looking like a real couple. Alex was handsome, Isabel was charming, and they quickly attracted the attention of others.The restaurant waiter quickly came and greeted them. When Isabel read the phone number, the waiter immediately led the two to a table by the window with a favorable view.Isabel felt extremely happy with the present moment. She raised her wine glass to toast with Alex, celebrating his divorce. However, Alex didn't feel good since he had signed the agreement. She did it just she thought Jessica had signed it before.At this moment, the restaur
The next morning, in the top office of the Forest Group. Isabel was reporting to Alex about company affairs, but she turned to an interesting topic then. "Master, do you know what happened in Sky Revolving after we had left?" The expression on her face was weird. "What?" Alex was curious too. "It is saying that the woman was beaten into an irreversible vegetative state and still doesn't wake up in the hospital now; Jascop got a mental disorder and was put into a mental institution." Hearing that, Alex felt that lives are so fragile. He did the indirect result of that. Then he changed the topic and asked Isabel about the procedure of a new project, BHD Discovery. BHD Discovery aimed to establish a super shopping mall in Kimberly City, though there had been several malls already. Isabel replied then: "It's hard to find a proper site to build BHD Discovery now, so the first step is blocked." Isabel sighed. "A commercial center usually has to be built in a densely populated pla
Three days went by so quickly.Since it was an offer-bid, many real estate businessmen had come. The government's decision to invest in the western area had attracted many of them to bid up. Everyone wanted to make profits through it, like constructing a residential area.Alex quietly stood in a corner and observed, Windmill, TheSky, BTB, etc., many local companies here.As a newcomer, the Forest Group was also a top company in real estate, which annoyed them. They united to resist it."Unexpectedly, this is a delicious piece of cake. We are all chasing it." Alex shook the wine glass in his hand while Isabel was standing by.Today Isabel was wearing a black slit two-piece dress, which hugged her body to accentuate her hourglass figure. The dress was dotted with sparkling glitter, making Isabel look like she was wearing the whole galaxy. Outwardly she weared a fur coat, like the fur of a large leopard. Today, Isabel's hair was curled; she looked like a Hollywood female star, with red l
