Looking at him, Jessie replied seriously, “Axell, you're wonderful in every way. Honestly, you're the best match I could ever hope for these days. You don't have to constantly try to please others, because it only ends up making yourself as well as everyone around you uncomfortable in the end."

Life seemed straightforward to her, but Axell was constantly striving to do things with motives.

Jessie openly expressed, “I apologize, Axell. I'm just not up for going out with you right now. I'll ride on Melissa's car. Please, give me some space."

Upon hearing this, Axell took a moment to contemplate.

As someone who was driven and ambitious, he acknowledged that he had been overly eager to make connections when he saw the opportunity.

Thus, rather than pressuring Jessie, he responded considerately, "Alright then, enjoy yourselves. I'll be quite busy over the next couple of days. If it suits you, perhaps we could meet up later. I'd love to take you out to a nice restaurant."

Preferring not to cause a scene, Jessie simply nodded and proceeded to get into Melissa's car.

Meanwhile, Melissa appeared unfazed by the fact that Jessie's date had been disrupted by Albert.

She started the car and casually inquired, “So, it's just the two of us now?"

Jessie silently nodded in response.

Seated beside Melissa, she slouched in her seat and expressed despondently, "Melissa, logically speaking, Axell is suitable for me.

Ambition is a common trait in men, but I..."

Melissa empathized with Jessie's current emotional state.

Like many men, Axell craved wealth and power, attributes Jessie had inherited by virtue of being born into a wealthy family. Despite the Green family's diminished prosperity, Jessie could continue to socialize with her affluent friends.

To be frank, Axell and Jessie belonged to different worlds.

Nevertheless, as an adult, Jessie had to make her own decisions for her own life. Thus, Melissa could only lend her an ear.

They conversed throughout the journey, indulged in coffee, and embarked on a shopping spree together.

Arriving home, Jessie appeared uplifted. Observing this, Lettie assumed it was due to her outing with Axell, so she prepared some soup for her daughter.

"You need to eat more from now on. You're too slender.

Putting on some weight would increase your chances of conceiving in the future."
