Terry was like a big heater, even on such a cold day, he was constantly emitting heat.Jessica was wrapped in his coat, with half of her face covered. The wind whistled as it brushed past, but it was all blocked by Terry's coat. Jessica didn't feel a trace of coldness.Her hands on her legs were held by him, his slender fingers wrapped around and stretched over her hands. The warmth from the man's palm continued, and Jessica's slightly cool hands also warmed up.The ski resort was built on the top of the mountain, and it took twenty-five minutes for the sightseeing car to drive up there.When they arrived at the ski resort, it was already 2.45. Both Jessica and Terry knew how to ski, so they bought their equipment and went straight into the venue.Looking around, there were still many people on the vast expanse of white snow."Baby, come over here and sit down."So many people, Terry just called her "baby", and Jessica's face immediately turned hot.She averted her gaze, walked over a
People in the ski resort were all wearing ski suits and protective gear, making them all look similar.Lia really didn't expect to run into Jessica here, and she certainly didn't expect that she was just trying to make a good impression in front of Heidy Coffey. She never imagined that she would end up bumping into Jessica like this.Last time at the club, they witnessed Jessica's "craziness". If Lia had known that person was Jessica, she would have kept quiet.But the words spoken and the water splashed out cannot be taken back.Lia could only respond reluctantly, "I was standing far away just now and couldn't see clearly. I thought it was you, Ms. Hall, who accidentally tripped."As soon as Lia finished speaking, Heidy, who had just fallen down, also came over and said, "Miss, it's a misunderstanding. My friend didn't see clearly."Lia heard Heidy speak and quickly gave herself an excuse. "I was also worried about my friend, Ms. Hall, please don't mind."Jessica glanced at Lia with
Terry glanced at her and asked, "Is there anything special you want to eat tonight?"Upon hearing his words, Jessica raised her head and said, "Wasn't it supposed to be eating downstairs?""If you have something you want to eat, then we can drive out to eat."Jessica glanced at the darkening sky outside the window and said, "Forget it, it's too cold.""Okay."Terry responded with a nod, got up and poured her a cup of warm water, then sat on the sofa. "Are your legs sore?"Jessica was drinking water when she heard his words and immediately choked.She noticed that he was about to touch her leg, so she subtly moved it and said, "It's not sore anymore."Terry raised an eyebrow and said, "Hasn't it been a while since you last went skiing?"Jessica realized her misunderstanding just now, but looking at the smile in his eyes, she knew he had done it on purpose.Jessica took another sip of water and said, "The intensity wasn't very high."Terry responded with a nod, leaning against the sofa
Back at the hotel, Jessica's awkward mood only slightly eased.Changing into lightweight casual clothes, Jessica took out a small bag containing her swimsuit from her suitcase and lifted it up directly, saying, "Okay."Terry glanced at her and said, "Shall I help you carry it?""Not heavy."He did not force himself anymore and the two of them went out to the hot springs.The hot spring area is located behind the hotel, and you can enter various sizes of hot spring pools through the corridor.Jessica went to the women's changing room and changed into her swimsuit. She wrapped a towel around herself, put her clothes in the storage box, and then went out to meet Terry.Terry had already changed, with a towel draped casually over his body. From a distance, Jessica could faintly see the contours of his chest.Jessica glanced at him and quickly averted her gaze, but her earlobes involuntarily turned red.At this moment, Terry also noticed her, his gaze falling on her. Compared to his casual
Terry did walk fast indeed, even though she was being held, her footsteps showed no sign of slowing down.In no time, the two of them left the hot spring area and arrived at the exit.Jessica patted his shoulder and said, "Can I leave here on my own?"Terry glanced down at her legs, his eyes flickered, and then he let her down.Jessica glanced at him with a half-smile, "It's not like I've never been swimming before."Moreover, she was not even naked, so why was Terry afraid that she might expose herself?Upon hearing her words, Terry raised an eyebrow slightly and said, "Then why didn't you dare to show it to me just now, sweetheart?"Jessica felt embarrassed and, realizing her own lack of generosity just now, she turned her gaze away and remained silent.After leaving the hot spring area, Jessica felt a bit cold. She took the clothes from the cabinet and changed the damp shawl she had brought with her for a towel. Only then did she put on her coat and go outside.Stepping out of the
Jessica slept until after nine o'clock the next day. Just as she woke up, she heard her stomach growling loudly, feeling extremely hungry.She just moved a little, and the soreness all over her body reminded her of last night's madness.Thinking about what happened last night, Jessica's face turned red again.She pursed her lips, pushed away her thoughts, and prevented herself from dwelling on what happened last night. She propped herself up and sat up from the bed.As soon as the person sat up, Terry came in and said, "Good morning, baby, would you like to have breakfast?"Jessica was a little angry again, she raised her hand and grabbed the pillow next to her, and threw it directly at him.Terry didn't hide either, waiting for the pillow to hit his face before he came over and hugged her in his arms, saying, "Are you still angry?"He said, grabbing her hand, and slapping his own face. "It hurts like this, it hurts like this, baby."Jessica couldn't help but laugh at him. "You were r
The group entered the private room with different thoughts in mind. However, among the four people, Bennett was probably the least happy.He had finally managed to run into Chad and was planning to take advantage of the opportunity to get close to him, secure the new project from the Sheppard Group, and then go to Brice to take credit.Bennett couldn't help but feel annoyed when Terry and Jessica unexpectedly showed up out of nowhere.But what could he do about his anger? He was invited by Chad, and now he looked at the three people chatting at the table, feeling as if he was the one who was unnecessary.Jessica couldn't tell what Chad was up to, but the atmosphere at the dinner table had been quite harmonious so far.Chad occasionally said a sentence or two, sometimes it was her who answered, and sometimes it was Terry who answered.Bennett, sitting on the side, didn't have much presence. He probably realized this issue and smiled as he chatted with Chad for a few moments, to which C
After leaving the private room, Jessica and Terry went straight back to their room, packed their things, and prepared to return to the city center.Thinking about what Chad had just said in the private room, Jessica took the warm water Terry handed over and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, "Do you know Mr. Sheppard?"Upon hearing her words, Terry glanced at her with a slight raise of his head. His peach blossom eyes hooked her with a smile that seemed both playful and inscrutable, saying, "Darling, do you want to vent your anger on me again?"Jessica took a sip of water and chuckled lightly, "So you really had a conflict with him?""Um."He did not deny, but Terry clearly had no intention of saying anything specific about the holiday.Jessica didn't pursue further, she leaned on the nearby sofa and looked at him, "No wonder."She paused and said, "However, the Sheppard family is not easy to mess with. It seems like you will have to suffer."It is said that he was being treated unfa
This sound was familiar to Hannah, but unfamiliar to everyone else.However, Foster, the person in question, was recognized by the people present. After all, he was the CEO of Kangsel and made headlines on his first day in office after returning from overseas.Rowan naturally knew Foster as well. Their company had a collaboration with Kangsel, but the contract expired this year. Their company wanted to renew the contract with Kangsel. Rowan had even visited Kangsel twice, just to meet Foster, but unfortunately, he didn't get to see him both times.I didn't expect to run into you here.Hannah didn't want to deal with Foster, but due to the presence of others, she reluctantly responded, "What's up?""Your skirt is wet, you need to change it. Mr. Everitt asked me to come and take you to the changing room."Mr. Everitt was the host of today's business banquet, and to have gained the favor of Mr. Everitt is enough to prove Hannah's status, not to mention anything else.Rowan and Abigail ex
Not only was Sophia, Hannah's friend, curious about Hannah slapping Foster twice, but Joe, Foster's secretary, was also curious.But the two parties involved in this matter didn't really care about it. Hannah's attitude was that if a fight happened, so be it, what else could be done.Foster's attitude was that if he got hit, he got hit, and he didn't really care.Although Joe was curious, he dared not gossip about this matter. He just recalled a few days ago when Foster asked him to investigate Hannah's affairs, and he realized that Hannah was not ordinary to Foster.So, he almost always mentioned things about Hannah to Foster, whether intentionally or unintentionally.Foster didn't expose him either, Joe said, he just listened."Mr. Carroway, Miss Howell seemed to have attended the business dinner tonight."The business dinner tonight, Foster had already declined to attend two days ago, Joe's meaning in saying this was obvious.The man paused his action of flipping through the docume
Who is Dominic?Sophia had never heard of this person from Hannah's mouth, but looking at Hannah's expression, this "Dominic" was probably more than just a regular friend.Although Sophia was gossipy, she was not someone who liked to pry into her boss's personal matters.She didn't bother Hannah anymore, loosened the collar of her clothes, poured a cup of hot water and placed it by the bedside, and then closed the door and left.Hannah didn't sleep well all night and had a lot of random dreams, which seemed real and yet also seemed fake.She dreamt that Dominic came back in her dream and asked her for money. As soon as he opened his mouth, he demanded three billion. Hannah got angry and immediately slapped him twice.She watched as Dominic's face instantly turned fierce, and he raised his hand to hit her. Hannah instinctively dodged, and the next second, she found herself in Dominic's arms. He held her and apologized, saying he didn't mean to deceive her.Hannah didn't believe his non
The people of Sophia were shocked, as they never expected that Hannah, who was drunk, would start picking fights with others!Looking at the man who got beaten again, although he looked handsome, it was clear that he was not someone to mess with!Sophia was afraid that Hannah would be hit by someone in the next second, so she hurriedly went over to try to pull the person away, saying, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, my boss is drunk!"But her hand reached out for a long time, and she couldn't reach Hannah.Sophia instinctively lifted her head and as soon as she did, she saw the man next to her grabbing Hannah's shoulder and spinning her around.The next second, just when she thought the man was going to slap Hannah, he instead bent down and lifted Princess Hannah up in his arms.“What’s going on?”Was she drunk?Is it because her boss was good-looking that the other person became interested in her boss?This is not acceptable!Realizing this, Sophia quickly stepped forward to stop him, saying,
Hannah almost fell asleep on the couch, but woke up to find that it was almost 1 o'clock in the morning.The mood that was disturbed by that man is still very bad now. She pursed her lips, got up and went upstairs to take a bath and have a good sleep.It was probably in the evening when Foster blocked the door, and Hannah dreamt about him all night.The next day, Hannah woke up in shock. She touched her forehead and grabbed the nearby pillow, then started pounding it fiercely.She dreamt that she was being violently beaten by Foster's wife, with her hair being pulled out in the dream.Hannah was still trembling with fear as she looked in the mirror for a while, making sure her hair was still there before she finally breathed a sigh of relief.She was too lazy to make breakfast, so she sent Sophia a message and started getting ready for work.It has been over a month of wandering, it's time to go back and be a good boss.Hannah's work attitude has always been lackadaisical. The studio'
Hannah immediately closed the car window, she didn't even get out of the car, and just looked at the man in front of her car through the windshield.Foster moved slightly and walked around to the side of the car, “Hannah."He called her again.Two years ago, Hannah's favorite thing was his voice.Dominic, oh no, he doesn't go by Dominic anymore, he goes by Foster, Mr. Carroway.Not to mention, Foster had a handsome face and a voice that was captivating.However, after two years, when Hannah heard this familiar voice again, she didn't blush at all like she used to.This man had a cruel heart, she had witnessed it.Hannah, who had lived for almost thirty years, had never experienced such a big setback.She used to persistently pursue him, which was quite good. After all, it's normal for men and women to have feelings for each other. If you really didn't like it, you could have just spoken up instead of disappearing without a word.If Jessica had come that day, Hannah wouldn't have known
Seeing her frowning, Terry took her hand and asked, "What's wrong?""Hannah kept something from me."Terry didn't know much about Hannah's situation, and he didn't have any particular opinion on Jessica's words either, “Miss Howell is not young anymore, she will have her own judgment."Jessica nodded, Hannah was indeed not young anymore, if there was really something she needed help with, it was impossible for her not to speak up and seek help.Despite this, Jessica still called Mona.Early in the morning, Mona had just woken up when she received a call from Jessica. She was quite surprised and said, "Jessica?""It was me."Jessica glanced at Terry, who leaned over to fasten her seatbelt, and couldn't help but raise her hand to touch his short hair.Terry glanced at her with a half-smile, slowly started the car.Jessica told Mona about what happened to Hannah last night, "She drank three cans of beer at once, she must have encountered something."Mona also agreed, "I indeed never saw
This was not what annoyed Hannah the most. What annoyed her the most was that she was standing in front of the doors of the middle elevator, while Foster and the others were on the left side, walking past her as they left.The aisle, which had just appeared spacious, now seemed narrow as Hannah stood in the middle while four or five people passed by together.She was quite spirited, but as soon as she saw someone, she quickly averted her gaze and looked up at the bouncing floors of the elevator in front of her.When the man passed by her from behind, she could smell the familiar scent of cedar.Hannah tightened her grip on the side of her body. Fortunately, soon enough, the elevator arrived and with a "ding," the elevator door quickly opened.Hannah lifted her leg and walked straight in, then turned around and desperately pressed the door close button.She was afraid that if she slowed down any further, she wouldn't be able to resist going up and hitting someone.The elevator went up
It is easier to get things done with acquaintances.Hannah saw that it was someone she knew, and immediately felt relieved.Jessica said that she had thick skin, and she wasn't without reason.Just then, as soon as she took her seat, she immediately struck up a conversation with Joseph, “Didn't the two of you used to skip class and go to the arcade? You haven't forgotten about me, have you?"Joseph smiled as he unwrapped the packaging paper of the straw for her, "I didn't forget."Hannah, in their circle, was also a well-known "celebrity", how could he forget.Hannah took the straw and said thank you, “Did you break up? I remember Kendall said you had a girlfriend! Or is it that your mother doesn't like her? It's okay, just keep going! Love is a rare thing, it's not easy to find in our circle. Once we find it, how can we easily give up?"Hannah was stuck on the road for nearly twenty minutes. The weather in August was hot, and even though the car had the air conditioning on, it felt t
