Chapter: 3915
After escorting a VIP out, Albert sank onto the couch for a breather.

He reached for a cigarette but thought better of it. Just then, his secretary Emma Messer, popped in. "Mr. Waston, Miss Green's here to see you. Should I send her in?"

Miss Green?

Albert's brow furrowed. "Do you mean Jessie?"

Emma grinned. "Yep, she's downstairs. Do you want to see her?"

He leaned back, taking a deep breath. "Let her in. And don't hold her back anymore. If she wants to see me, give her the green Light."

She nodded. "Got it, Mr. Waston."

She departed. In around five minutes, Albert was resting his eyes when he heard the door creak. “Emma, step out for a second," he called.

Emma hesitated briefly, but then left with a smile, closing the door gently.

Finally, he opened his eyes.

Jessie strutted in, sporting a lovely lilac dress. He recalled she snagged it ages ago, but it still looked fresh and trendy. Her hair was up and her makeup was subtle.

She looked... amazing!

Her vibe was upbeat too.

Albert's facial muscles twitched slightly as he locked eyes with her.

"It seems things are going well with you and Axell. Are you ready to get serious?"

Jessie approached wearing a serious expression. “I have something to say."

With a solemn expression, she withdrew twenty thousand dollars from her purse, placing it and the unsigned contract on the table. "I'm all in with him. He's clueless about our history which is why he is so friendly with you. To dodge future drama... Mr. Waston, I've thought it through. I can't tutor your kid anymore.”

With that, she gave him a slight nod, ready to leave.

But Albert halted her.

He probed, “You care for him that much? Enough to completely dodge interaction with me?"
