Chapter 1363:
A glint of mischief flashed in Freya's tone. “Alright, I'll talk to Melvin about those company policies soon. If there's

“But what, exactly?” Jessica leaned in, giving him a playful glare.
Melvin gave in right away. For sreason, every tshe took charge, he ended up agreeing, no matter what
he had planned.
Even though Freya usually commanded the room, she still deferred to him—yet with Jessica, things were
different.
Jessica flashed him a confident smile. “Relax, I'm good at what | do. Even if your work gets pushed back, | can
