Female NovelChapter 2980 Waylen was already seated at the breakfast table, with a newspaper in his hand. His voice was laden with sarcasm as he read out a headline, " Fowler CEO a visit to Miss Finch..." Group pays late-night...
Marcus joined him at the table.
After Waylen set aside the newspaper, he asked, “Do you think the Finch family released this story on purpose?” A servant handed Marcus his breakfast. He took a bite and replied softly, “Likely!” Waylen's expression turned serious. “If that's the case, you'll need to be extra cautious around the Finch family!” At the Waston Group, Melissa found herself battling a cold after getting drenched in the rain.

she arrived at work, she pulled out some cold medicine from her bag and mixed it with hot water to drink.
Just as she took a few sips, her office door swung open.
To her surprise, Jessie was standing there.
Jessie was adorned with the diamond ring Melissa had picked out for her. With her folded arms and her striking figure, she looked captivating.
After taking a moment to take in the scene, Melissa raised an eyebrow and asked, “What brings you here?” Instead of just cutting straight to the point, Jessie said, “Did you read the newspaper this morning?

Upon noticing Melissa's calm demeanor, Jessie felt a mix of disappointment and resolve not to concede. She pressed on, “You truly don't care about him anymore? You were head over heels for Marcus back in the day. What happened to you? Have your feelings for him vanished? Or are you just scared you can't compete with Violette? Don't forget, you and Marcus share a child.” As Melissa powered up her computer and started sorting through her work, she responded, “I was under the impression that you had eyes for Mr. Waston now.

Jessie's expression changed at Melissa's reply, and she retorted sharply, “How could you bring Albert into this to threaten me! Others might not see through you, but I do, Melissa. You're a bastard of the Smith family, and your child is no different. They say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, right?” Right after Jessie's words, Melissa delivered a slap across her face.
The sound of the slap echoed sharply.
