Lettie remained courteous, but inwardly, she believed Albert had a knack for manipulating Jessie. With his own efforts, along with the involvement of the child and now his mother, it seemed like a concerted effort to win Jessie back.

How could Jessie handle all this?

Albert was aware that his mother had gone to visit Jessie and her mother.

At that moment, Albert was playing snooker in the CEO's office of the Waston Group, a hobby he had adopted from Alexis. Coincidentally, Alexis was present, and the two engaged in a game.

In one corner of the luxurious office, there was a set of sofas where Melissa sat, attending to business matters.

Right then, Emma knocked on the door and entered the room.

Glancing at Albert, who was engrossed in his snooker game, Emma whispered to Melissa, "Ms. Brown, there's a call from the Heron branch. It seems someone leaked information, and Paulina found out about Mr. Waston's plan to allocate shares to Miss Green. She is causing a scene and insists on being brought here to confront Mr. Waston."

Melissa responded with a subtle smile. "The company has over 6,000 employees, including 200 middle-level staff and over 20 senior executives. This highly confidential information was available only to a select few. It might be worth investigating further. Mr. Watson doesn't take kindly to disloyalty among those in his circle."

Emma nodded in understanding before asking in a hushed tone, "What about the situation on the Heron side?"

After a brief pause, Melissa instructed, "Present her with the current share structure of the Waston Group. Perhaps she'll realize she should focus on recuperating instead of meddling in company affairs. It's not conducive to her health."

Understanding the directive, Emma exited the CEO's office.

Melissa closed her notebook and glanced across the room. Albert was engaged in a discussion with Alexis regarding a significant land development case, likely involving some dispute necessitating Alexis' expertise.

Albert exuded confidence and the charisma of a seasoned man.

Upon observing Albert's passionate and assured demeanor, Melissa's mind drifted to Jessie.

Melissa dismissed the idea of Jessie being a match for Albert and subtly shook her head. Glancing at her watch, she announced to Albert and Alexis, “I'm heading out. I'll have to pick up Matthew from school."

Albert turned his head and scoffed. “I've just been informed that Marcus' car is parked at the Waston Group's gate."

Melissa replied gracefully, "Yes, we'll go pick up Matthew together."

Albert waved dismissively. "Save the public displays of affection for elsewhere. Now go."

Smiling, Melissa nodded at Alexis and declared, "I'm off now."

Alexis waved back at Melissa.
