Chapter 1402:
“I think there's been a misunderstanding,” Jessica said calmly, throwing him a lifeline. “Sure, he’s a bit excessive
when it comes to partying, but work-wise? He's actually quite responsible. I've looked into the company. Since it

Jack blinked, completely stunned.

“He’s doing just fine,” Jessica said, covering for Jack again. “No need to worry.”

“What the hell?”
“You keep going on about Melvin, but deep down, you must have a thing for me,” Jack went on, letting his
delusions run wild. “Otherwise, how would you know so much about my company?”
“You really think highly of yourself,” Jessica said, fixing him with a deadpan stare. She didn’t even let him enjoy
the moment. “Your desk is practically wallpapered with brochures—intro, business focus, target market, you
nit.”
