The receptionists nearby whispered among themselves, their eyes darting between Jessica and Brian

They couldn’t help but think Jessica was living a good life in pilvate..

Jessica walked straight past him. Brian smiled slightly and reached for her hand, but she pulled away. “I thought you wanted me to bring dinner up to your room,” Brian said.

Jessica brushed past him and headed straight for his car, aware of the many eyes watching them outside.

Brian Followed with a helpless smile, ignored but undeterred.

Once inside, Jessica rubbed her temples impatiently. “Drian, I’ve told you already, Stop wasting both our time. I don’t need your homemade pomidge. If want some, my parents will take care of it.“”

Brian pressed his lips together as they sat facing each other in the Bentley “just

Silence filled the car. Brian stared at Jessica for a long moment.

“Jess, I want to fulfill my responsibilities as a father.” He opened the porridge container and poured it into the bowl he’d brought. The steaming seafood porridge smelled even better than last night’s, looking absolutely perfect.

She turned and gave him a cold stare. Her icy gaze met his deep eyes, and they faced each other in silent standoff. Finally, Brian slowly released her hand.

Jessica didn’t hesitate. She left immediately, her figure quickly disappearing through the company entrance.

Brian stood there for a long time, watching the empty doorway. He couldn’t understand what had gone wrong between them.

Saturday arrived before anyone knew it. Jacob showed up at Grant Manor bright and early with his little backpack bouncing on his shoulders.
