"Michelle, I happen to need someone to cook meals for me. I'll send you the address. Come over whenever it's convenient for you. Just let me know before you head out," Tessa said.
Michelle chuckled cheerfully. "I'm free right now. Are you home? I can come over now."
"Sure, come on over."
After the call, Michelle turned to Stephen. "Mr. Jacobson, Ms. Yates agreed."
"Good. She tends to forget to eat when she gets busy. The place is close to her firm, so you'll need to deliver lunch to her office on weekdays. I'll cover your salary for that. But if she offers to pay you, don't refuse. And don't tell her I sent you."
Hearing that she could earn double pay, Michelle beamed with joy and quickly replied, "Of course, Mr. Jacobson. I'll make sure to take good care of Ms. Yates."
...
After New Year's Day, Stephen was swamped with work, barely finding time to catch his breath.
He didn't dare slow down. The moment he stopped, Tessa's face would creep into his mind, and he couldn't shake the thought of her.
He sat at his desk in the CEO's office and was focused on his computer.
Quentin lounged on the couch nearby and watched him with a complicated expression. "Stephen, there's something I'm not sure if I should say."
Without looking up, Stephen replied coldly, "Then don't."
Quentin opened his mouth, hesitated, then said, "It's about Tessa. Are you sure you don't want to hear it?"
Stephen's hands froze mid-typing. He raised his eyes. "What is it?"
"I knew it," Quentin thought. "If it involves Tessa, there's no way he wouldn't care."
But this was tricky—if he said it, Stephen would definitely get upset.
"Uh..." Quentin cleared his throat. "Naomi's been talking about setting Tessa up with a few college guys lately..."
As he spoke, he snuck a glance at Stephen, whose face had already darkened.
"College guys?" Stephen's jaw clenched as he asked in an icy tone.

Oh my god, when is this book finishing... they're not even back together yet and more nonsense side plots.....
Whoa! Hahahahahaha! Go, Sophia! Burn, stupid Rowena! Lol...
Sooo~ Chapters 310-318 were just a repeat of Jacqueline’s punishment, official expulsion from the Jacobson family, and arrest. With few changes since Tessa and Stephen are not together this time. So Tessa didn’t witness how Jacqueline was tortured at Stephen’s base, though at least Tessa was still called over and witnessed how Stephen officially expelled Jacqueline from the Jacobson family and how Stephen’s subordinate made Jacqueline grovel in front of Tessa. Lol. I hope Jacqueline’s really out of the story now....
Also a lot of chapters were missing here. I went back to the application where it was originally published that’s why i know that this site is not reliable...
Fucked up book! Seems like the authors were not talking to each other. LOL. Yes authors, because of the inconsistencies....
The story went downhill after pg200 1. Why is Jacqueline back… she was expelled from the family already 2. There was no reason for Rowena to be mad at Tessa 3. The Jacobson already knows that Stephen wants to get back witb Tessa after they deal with James, so why is Rowena pushing hard? LOL 4. The family also knows that Stephen and Nancy have some sort of deal. The story was okay from page 1-199, but clearly it’s a thumbs down. I can deal with grammatical errors, but story errors is just different now....
This is funny! Jacqueline was also the culprit why James knew that nancy was Stephen's cousin. So, really, what happened when steohen tortured jacqueline hahah...
I wonder how many authors does this book have? Suddenly jacqueline was back and continue to bad mouth tessa. And was stunned that tessa knows her feelings about stephen. And then rowena was freaking mad at tessa too; because there werw multiple instances that tessa sharp-tongued her. 🤣...
What is wrong with the story flow? At chapter 160-164 there’s this whole thing about Stephen revealing in front of all the Jacobsons family members about Jacqueline’s inappropriate feelings towards him and her involvement in murder. There’s even this “Just like that, Jacqueline was officially expelled from the Jacobson family. Stephen then promptly handed her to the authorities.” So I was already glad the bitch is out of the picture. And then suddenly at chapter 236, Jacqueline appears again like nothing happened, still being the adoptive daughter of the Jacobson family and the family being unaware of her feelings for Stephen. Seriously? Doesn’t make sense anymore....
The latest update is just a repetition of the previous chapters...
