Jessie was pulled away by Albert. She cursed under her breath, You jerk, where are you dragging me? Im not going anywhere And forget about getting in my pants! | wont! Did you not hear what people just said about me? Youve already treated me like trash-a cheap thing you played and tossed aside. What more do you want? Dont talk like that! Pressed against the corridor wall, her back ached from the impact.
Across the way, Melissa watched, feeling concerned.

Waston, sure knows how to make a scene, huh? What do you think, Melissa?
Yawn! I prefer Mr. Wastons work ethic, Melissa replied softly.
Marcus peeked into the private room, blocking Melissa from going in.
He nodded towards Alberts direction and whispered, It looks Like theyre not letting go of each other. Lets give them some space.
Melissa chewed her lip. But Mr. Wastons married! Marcus smirked. Hes got a better grip on his situation than you think! Being married, he knows whats off-limits. If he really cared for Jessie, he wouldnt even lay a finger on her.
Melissa eyed him for a moment. You seem to know Mr. Waston pretty well? Marcus countered slowly, Feeling a bit jealous, are we? Meanwhile, Albert was holding Jessies face, still feeling the heat from their scuffle.

Jessie chuckled against the wall, and then cocked her head.

Disbelief flashed across her face, as if shed just heard the unthinkable.
After a moment, she chuckled. Come on, Albert, quit joking! Shed attended his wedding and he didnt bat an eye. He just handed her some tissues and carried on with the festivities. The night she cried her heart out, he was off enjoying his honeymoon.
