"Mr. Jefferson, I have found the right ce to move. Can you please borrow me some cash in advance?" Jessica requested. She wanted to move out from her current ce before taking any other action. "Text me your ount number immediately," Alex replied nonchntly.


    "Consider it done! Thank you so much, Mr. Jefferson!" Jessica texted Alex her bank ount number as soon as she hung up the call.


    Alex immediately transferred a million to Jessica without any hesitation.


    Jessica immediately texted Alex, Mr. Jefferson, a million is way too much.


    In return, Alex replied, I''m sure you''ll need another fortune to renovate your new house, don''t you? Keep it for the time being. You can return it to me in the future. After all, you have quite a high wage. Once again, Jessica replied, If that''s the case, I can only afford to pay you in instalment every month, but it won''t be a huge sum. Is that fine?


    Alex replied, It''s fine. If there''s nothing else, you should get going and sort things out as soon as possible. I''ll be awaiting your return once you have settled down.


    In the end, Alex wrapped up the conversation they had and continued getting in touch with Charlie.


    However, his effort was to no avail because the call wouldn''t get through after countless attempts.


    Alex had a bad hunch about what would be in store for him soon. Once he made up his mind, he put his phone away, deciding to check on Charlie''s situation in the evening.


    In the afternoon, Heather picked their son up and brought him home. The moment she reached back home, she said, "Let''s head over to the gathering together."


    If it weren''t because Alex had given in to Wade''s request the day before yesterday, she would never allow Alex to keep herpany since he would merely embarrass her in front of others.


    However, she had to bring him along since Wade had deliberately brought him up in front of her in the morning.


    "Sure," Alex replied, grinning.


    Heather had Carmen take care of Stanley before heading out with Alex.


    Once she saw Alex''s brand new car, she asked as she couldn''t hold back her curiosity, "Has your supervisor bought you another car?"


    "Huh? Oh! I brought the chairman''s car home because he''s away for a few days. He has to make a business trip," Alex stated nonchntly.


    "Oh..." Heather nodded the moment she sorted out the confusion that had been bothering her.


    Truth be told, she had been confused for quite some time. She couldn''t figure out the rationale behind why the chairman of Four Seas Corporation would bestow her husband a brand new luxury car. Since Alex had exined the rationale behind it, Heather couldn''t be bothered by it anymore as the excuse he had made up seemed logical.


    They boarded their respective cars and made their way to the hotel.


    Alex had been sleeping with their sontely. Although Heather had turned a blind eye to what was happening, she had her own fair share of doubts.


    She had always wanted to visit the chairman, but she felt as though Alex was hyper aware of something. Therefore, she made herself give up on the thought.


    Heather turned the idea over in her mind for some time and decided that she would only approach the chairman after herpany broke even, securing the ten percent share the chairman had promised her.


    She would soon have to confront Alex. Thankfully, she had mentally prepared herself since he had taken the initiative and slept in a different roomtely.


    ...


    It was half-past five in the evening. Things were getting livelier as time flew by in Perennial Hotel.


    Today Wade and Tony had reserved the most spacious dining suite the hotel had to offer to hold a gathering for his ssmates. Those who had received the invitation showed up in the venue one after another. Things were getting livelier as the crowd gathered around, all of them busy catching up with one another.


    Everyone engaged themselves in a heated discussion once Heather showed up in the suite with Alex by her side.novelbin
