"What are you doing here?" he asked in an icy voice. Edward fixed the woman in his cold gaze.

She tried to find him in his office, but instead, she was stopped by the receptionist. But she needed to see him, so she waited for him in the lobby.
"There's nothing we need to talk about." Staring indifferently at her, Edward was getting impatient. He hated it when women badgered him like this.
"Edward, please. Just give me another chance." Jessica lowered her voice. She felt embarrassed as people passed by and cast inquisitive glances.
"Another chance? Jessica, we've known each other for a long time. And you know that I never give chances to those I don't need anymore." Edward replied calmly. His words were like daggers that stabbed into Jessica's heart. Her face turned pale from embarrassment and shame.
"But I'm not just any woman! I'm the mother of your child!" Jessica froze for a while, and argued as soon as she found her voice again. She couldn't lose him, not while she had this kind of leverage.
"Are you kidding me? Jessica, you are way too full of yourself. The mother of my child is Daisy, not you." Edward laughed out loud and then leaned forward to whisper in Jessica's ear. There was a devilish look on his handsome face, mockery emanating from his cold eyes.

"What? Did you forget where you come from?" Jessica sneered. No matter how hard Mary tried to act like a well-born lady, she was, after all, a vulgar ordinary girl. And people could easily see through her.
"Jessica, you can laugh, for all I care! I thought I could give you some tips, but you don't seem to need my help. Good luck with single motherhood!" Mary added viciously, eyes fixed on Jessica's belly. How could this woman be pregnant with Edward's child while she didn't even get the chance to touch him?
"Mary, how much did you hear?" Jessica was surprised that Mary knew about her pregnancy. But then she remembered that she practically screamed at Edward. It wouldn't be hard to hear her.
"How much? What if I say I heard everything?" She didn't want Jessica to be her enemy at this point, but she had done too much damage, cutting her to the quick. She gave up the idea of Jessica as an ally. Mary's lips curled into a sneer. Her planning to team up with Jessica to break up Edward and Daisy, and claim Edward as her own was in tatters.
