Female NovelAt Melissa's mention of Jessie, Marcus glanced upstairs.
He remarked, “Even if Jessie struggles, she needs to move on.
Albert's marriage is solid. Even if Jessie goes to Heron, it won't change anything. Albert has a wife now. You're her friend and you should tell Jessie to let go of him and move on with her own life.
And if you keep coddling her, she'll never get over it” As he spoke, Melissa studied his face.
Marcus smirk. “What? Have you never seen a handsome guy like me before?” Melissa admitted honestly, “Nope, never” Marcus’ intense gaze held hers for a moment. Then, he dabbed his lips with a pristine napkin, ruffled Matthew's hair, and said, “I'm off to the office” Matthew immediately scooped up Minnie, chiming, “Bye, dad.” Marcus chuckled. He figured Matthew just wanted more time with the dog. Like mother, like son, with a mind of his own.
Less than an hour after Marcus departed, Julie showed up.
Julie was ready to lend a hand if Melissa needed it. Plus, having Yvonne
stay with them would be a good arrangement.
Julie even opened up to Melissa, saying, “You know what I'm thinking?
Shawn's raking in the money now. I'm worried he might blow it all, so Janet needs to stick by him. That's why Yvonne's staying with me.
With no kiddos around, they can focus on their careers. And I can also help you taking care of Matthew.” Melissa inquired about Shawn's progress. She was genuinely pleased for him.
Just then, Matthew dashed over, wrapping Julie in a tight hug, bringing tears to her eyes.Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
Julie missed Matthew dearly too.
With Julie there, Melissa felt at ease heading to the office.
At noon, Melissa called but another servant picked up. The servant stammered, “Miss Green's up. She's with Matthew, waiting on Julie to cook them something.” Melissa breathed a sigh of relief. That was good news.
After hanging up, she sank into her leather chair, pondering Jessie's situation.
Bringing Jessie back wasn't just about providing her shelter. Jessie was in hot water with her folks. But they wouldn't dare cause a scene at Marcus’ place.
Melissa owed Marcus yet another one.
