29. Obstructive
She had clearly divorced Mike. She had also clearly said that she would never think of that person again.
However, just now, she actually had the absurd idea of using Alex to take revenge on Mike. She really
disgusted herself.
She had promised to pull herself together, but what was she doing just now?
She was ruining herself for a heartless man?
Alex did not make her struggle or resist. He expressionlessly carried her on his broad shoulders and
walked back to the car with big strides. He stuffed her into the backseat and sat in the driver’s seat.
This car quickly merged with the traffic in R City.
Jessie was tired from shouting and there was no more sound. She curled up in the soft and spacious
back seat. Tears fell from the corners of her eyes one after another.
Alex heard her suppressed and aggrieved voice and was very angry. His thin lips were pressed into a
straight line, and he did not speak along the way. He drove the car very fast, and it didn’t take long for
the car to stop at the foot of CnX Apartment.
Just as the car stopped, Jessie had already opened the car door and got out. She did not even look back
as she entered the building.
When she waited for the elevator, she could not help but look at the entrance of the apartment
However, the black car had already left. It only left her with two red taillights…
The next day, Jessie suddenly went to work at night.
So, she turned off her phone and fell asleep in Sally’s single apartment until noon.
Alex sent her to her house last night. She did not even enter the door when she hurriedly took a taxi to
Sally’s place at night.
When she came to Sally’s house, Sally was sleeping very soundly.
She also did not know how Rick found Sally’s home address and sent Sally back.
Sally slept until noon and woke up. Sally had already gone to work early in the morning.
Around 3 o’clock in the afternoon, Jessie went to the coffee shop.
The store manager, Leny, was different from her usual high and cold attitude. When she saw
her, she immediately ran over enthusiastically. Leny even took the initiative to hold Jessie’s arm and
intimately asked, “Have you had lunch? There is a newly made pastry in lounge. Want to try it?”
Jessie was a little nervous, “I have already eaten. Len, what happened yesterday…”
“Let’s go in. Let’s talk inside!” Leny hugged her even tighter and walked towards the direction of lounge.
Jessie looked at Sally who was in the back counter for help.
Sally smiled and did a reassuring gesture to her.
“Come, come, come. This is the blueberry dragon cake. Try the taste.” Leny brought a plate of blueberry
dragon cake and sat beside her. She picked up a piece and was going to feed it to
Jessie.
Jessie was flattered and nervously smiled, “I will do it myself. Thank you Big Sis Leny.”

“Okay, you can eat it yourself.” Leny’s hands hung down to her knees. She rubbed her knees and said,
“That, Jeje. I usually treats you well, right? When you came to the Louisdin at that time, you didn’t know
anyone. I’ve been taking you along. You said you liked to make coffee, s o I introduced Jerry and the
others to you. Thinking about it, time really passed really quickly. In the blink of an eye, a few years have
passed.”
Jessie smiled cautiously.
In the past, it was indeed Leny who introduced Jerry to Jessie, but Leny’s intention was not s o simple.
Jerry was famous for playing with women. He saw Jessie in the company photo and wanted t o know
her.
Leny introduced Jessie to Jerry in order to please him.
Jessie only discovered his character after getting along with Jerry. Because of this, he had taught Jessie
some things. However, Jessie did not have any reaction when she heard that he was hospitalized last
time.
“After being together for so many years, you can also see it. I have a bad temper. Yesterday, the
headquarters manager sent me a video of you falling on the stage, and I was worried that you were hurt.
But… The headquarters manager kept scolding me, and I was stunned by his scolding. So my attitude
towards you wasn’t good, either. But I really don’t blame you, I was just worried, Don’t take it to heart.”
Leny said to Jessie.
Jessie smiled and said, “I didn’t. Sis Leny, don’t say that.”
“You really don’t blame me?”
Jessie nodded.
Leny suddenly grabbed her hand tightly and her eyes were filled with anticipation. She said,” Alright then,
Jeje. Seeing that we have experienced these three years together, you must help me in the future, okay?
You also know that… I’ve been working in our Fengan Area for almost five years, and I’ve been thinking
of going to headquarters. Unfortunately, I didn’t have the chance. I’ve been waiting for a long time.
Finally, this day has come. Jeje, you are the pride of Cheng’an District. Also, you are too low–profile! You
know Boss Alex, a person with a very high status. Why haven’t I seen you mention that you know him?”
“Huh?” Jessie was stunned, and said, “That, actually…”
“Jeje, you really make me admire you! This time, you were mentioned by the headquarters as a flower
pulling training master. Actually, you already knew in advance, right? In the future, you don’t have to stay
in this small branch store anymore and don’t have to serve customers a t all times. You only need to
attend a few training classes every week, and then bring along new people. When you arrive at the
headquarters in the future, Don’t forget our colleagues from Cheng’an District…”
Leny said a bunch of things again…
After coming out of lounge, Jessie was still in disbelief and shock. She could not wake up.
When she came out, other than a few colleagues who were receiving customers, almost all the other
colleagues surrounded her.
“Jeje, you have to leave tomorrow. This is the pearl bracelet that I have always worn. I will give it to you
now. In the future, when you have nothing to do, ask me to go shopping with you. As long as you ask me
out, I’ll definitely be there!”
“Jeje, I don’t have any good gifts for you. I have always carried this wallet with me. Inside the wallet.
There’s also a photo taken during our dinner. I’ll give you this wallet as a gift to congratulate you on your
promotion. You can’t forget about me!”
“Jeje, Jeje, I live in F District. It’s very close to our headquarters. Can I go to the headquarterst o play
with you in the future?”
“Okay, okay, okay…” Jessie smiled but did not dare to accept the gifts.
She had been in Louisdin for a few years and this was the first time she was so popular.
Jessie was a little frustrated.
Jessie waited until Leny came out and shouted out the exciting suggestion that she would treat everyone
to a big meal tonight before Jessie was able to break out of the encirclement.
She escaped into the counter and looked like she was relieved of a heavy burden.
Sally brought over a cup of freshly ground coffee and passed it to her, “Everyone in our shop saw
yesterday’s video. You are a woman that can be personally saved by Boss Alex. Naturally, you are not
on the same level as us mortals. No wonder they are all trying their best to curry
favor with you.” Speaking of Alex, Jessie’s mind could not help but recall the scene from last night. Her
face was hot and she pretended to be calm. “This was just an accident. If it were anyone else, he would
have done it.”
“I don’t think it’s that simple.” Sally got closer to her and said, “Assistant Boss Alex brought those two
cute children to you this morning. He called you when you turn off your phone. I said you went to work in
the afternoon and then he left so fast. Actually, I feel that Boss Alex i s really special to you. Those two
children also like you very much. Do you want to consider being with Boss Alex?”
Jessie thought of those two children and her heart softened. But then she thought of their father. She
could not laugh anymore and said, “There’s nothing to consider. I don’t want to talk about relationships
anymore.”
Sally knew that Jessie was hurt badly by Mike, so she shrugged and did not say anything else.

Jessie tidied up her mood and wholeheartedly threw herself into the new work at the headquarters.
Jessie had to participate in a one-day training before he could officially be promoted. She was busy
studying, getting to know her new colleagues, and getting used to the new environment.
She was busy and fulfilling every day.
OW
One day after work, she received an unknown number. “Hello, Miss Jessie. I am Boss Alex’s assistant,
Rick. I am sorry to disturb you. Did Young Miss Fia go to look for you today?”
Jessie was stunned, “Fia? No. What happened?”
“Fia, Young Miss Fia, she’s gone. The driver saw her come out after school this afternoon. In a blink of
an eye, he did not see her again. We have already try to search many places but we didn’t find her. Boss
Alex went on a business trip and wasn’t at home. Now, all of us have gone to look for her but we didn’t
find her. I think she likes you. Maybe she’ll come and find
you.”
Jessie also became anxious, “I did not see her. Did she disappear after school? It has been a few hours
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmnow. Have you guys been looking for her near the school and Mountain and River Residence? Where
can such a young child run to?”
“We’ve all been looking for her. We didn’t find her. Now everyone was anxious to the point of going crazy,
but Young Miss Fia did not have a phone…”
“I will also go and help look for her. Call me if there is any news!” Jessie hung up the phone. A t that time,
she had already arrived at CnX Apartment’s house downstairs. When she saw that her phone was about
to run out of battery, she was afraid that she would not be able to use
her phone to pay for the taxi later. So she ran into the elevator and prepared to go home to get the
battery before going out to help look for the child.
The elevator slid open with a ding sound.
From afar, she saw a small figure squatting in front of her door.
“Fia?!” Jessie recognized it at a glance and quickly ran over.
“Aunt Jeje, why did you just come back? I have been waiting for you for a long time!” The little girl pouted
and complained. She held onto the door and stood up.
At this time, the little girl’s usually neat and beautiful braids were scattered. The red and purple pieces on
her school uniform looked like a color plate. Her school bag was on her back, and her face was dirty as
well.
“Fia, how did you end up like this? Who bullied you? Does it hurt anywhere?” Jessie pulled her to her
side and carefully looked around.
“It doesn’t hurt. These are all colored brushes. Kenny was the one who felt pain. I pushed him to the
ground and made him fall.” The little girl said complacently.
“Who is Kenny?”
“He’s my classmate sitting behind me. He’s really detestable. He keeps saying that I don’t have a
mommy and that I’m a wild child, so I beat him up every day.”
Jessie did not know whether to laugh or cry. Thinking that the Laurent family was still in a hurry to find
someone, she quickly took out her phone and dialed Rick’s number.
Fia hurriedly used her fingers to grab her phone and pitifully looked up at her, “Aunt Jeje, can you not tell
my grandparents about my fight?”
“Okay, I won’t say.” This classmate called Kenny teased a child without a mother. He deserved to be
beaten up by a little girl. Jessie suddenly wanted to protect the little girl. “But Kenny is a boy, right? Can
you defeat him? Do you want your father to tell the teacher?”
“No need, no need! He’s afraid of me now. He was beaten up badly by me again today. In the future, he
won’t dare to make fun of me anymore.”
Jessie smiled, “Is that so?”
“Hee hee.”
Jessie made a call with the Laurent family and told them that the child of the Laurent family was with her.
She would send Fia back later.
Fia held her hand and whispered, “I don’t want to go back. Aunt Jeje, can you let me stay here for a
night? Can you send me to school tomorrow?”
