Chapter 189 The most important thing was that I wanted to see Jessica's baby be born more than anyone.
Even though I no longer had feelings for Steven. In fact, he was as good as a stranger to me. But I couldn't deny the satisfaction I felt imagining the scene where Jessica and Steven-the accomplices who played a part in the death of my own child-would finally turn on each other.
"We can meet somewhere with surveillance," Jessica tried to convince me. It was obvious she was very eager to see me.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBut I wasn't interested. "Surveillance can fail, too," I replied.
Seeing that her reassurances weren't working, Jessica smirked and taunted, "You're just jealous. Jealous because Steven is withnow, so you're afraid to see me." Her attempt was clumsy and obvious.
"Provocation won't work on me," I said calmly.
Jessica threatened, "I'm downstairs at Huxham Corporation. If you don't cout, I'll spill everything that happened between you and the Pelham family.
"That includes everything between you and my ex-husband." I stared at my phone screen as Jessica delivered her ultimatum. "You have ten minutes. I'm at the coffee shop downstairs. If you don't come, you'll deal with the consequences!" While I exchanged these messages, I submitted the completed poster to the gaming department, and it was immediately approved.
Since I didn't have anything pressing to do, I decided to head downstairs and see what Jessica was plotting. I shut down my computer and headed downstairs.
Sasha was on her phone and looked up as I stood up. "Where are you off to?" "Someone I barely know wants to meet up. I'm going to see what she wants," I explained.
Sasha relaxed back onto the couch. "Alright. Just don't be too long." "Will do." As the office door closed, Sasha turned to Zane. "Do you know who Annalise is meeting?" "I do." Zane seemed to know everything about Annalise's matter.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSasha's curiosity grew. "Who is it?" "Jessica," Zane replied calmly.
Sasha looked puzzled.
"The sJessica who took Annalise's ex-husband," Zane added, his face expressionless.
Sasha's temper flared immediately. "Annalise has already divorced him ages ago! What's the mistress doing, coming here now?"
"Maybe to show off how well Annalise's ex is treating her?" Zane guessed, his distaste for Steven m evident that he wouldn't even say his name. Sasha tapped her chin. "Was her ex even that amazing? Good enough for two women to fight over?" "How good could a cheating man possibly be?" Zane's voice was cold.
"Annalise was just young then and hadn't yet learned how to see through those who are flashy on the outside but rotten within, so she got deceived." Sasha picked up on Zane's contempt for Steven. She raised an eyebrow and leaned against the couch as she asked, "You're really into Annalise, aren't you?" Zane glanced at her. "If you already know, then stop butting into our ttogether." "Oh, please," Sasha scoffed. "Maybe Annalise would rather spend twith me."
In the coffee shop downstairs, Jessica stirred her coffee with an small spoog, moving with an elegance that made her seem like a lady of high society. She looked down atwith a mocking smile. "I heard you're working as a nanny for the Huxham family?"
