Chapter 2963: Chapter 2963

“You don’t understand.

Women are never satisfied.

Take her jewelry shopping today, and tomorrow she’ll demand a ring.

Such a headache.

”

Melissa held back a response, simply nodding.

She picked up the pamphlet and said, “Alright, I’ll handle it.

”

As she made to leave, Albert halted her.

“Wait a moment.

”

He retrieved a card from his drawer and handed it to Melissa.

“This is a gift card for the finest French restaurant in the city.

Consider it a birthday gift from me.

Take Matthew and Julie there for a meal when you have the chance.

”

Melissa accepted graciously.

“Thank you, Mr.

Watson.

”

Albert smiled.

“Now, back to work.

”

Melissa returned to her office, where she enjoyed the comforts of her private workspace as the chief secretary, boasting an area of 15 square meters and a pleasant environment.

After taking a moment to inspect the gift card, Melissa eventually placed it inside her desk drawer.

Melissa carefully perused the jewelry booklet, studying each description intently.

Eventually, she found a necklace that she thought would be perfect for Jessie.

Melissa snapped a photo of it and promptly sent it to Jessie.

“Do you like this one?”

Meanwhile, Jessie, in the midst of applying nail polish at her villa, received Melissa’s message.

She hesitated, grappling with her complex feelings toward Melissa.

In truth, Jessie harbored no real animosity towards Melissa.

However, their relationship was complex.

Previously, Jessie had pursued Marcus, who had favored Melissa.

Now, Jessie was involved with Albert, while Melissa appeared to hold a special place in Albert’s heart, although he had never openly admitted it.

Yet, the dynamics between them were undeniably tense.

Jessie was privy to all of Melissa’s secrets, including her whereabouts and the existence of her child.

However, for the past two years, Jessie had chosen not to reveal anything to Marcus.

Jessie believed that her feelings towards Melissa were driven by jealousy.

Melissa’s outward appearance didn’t suggest that she possessed much, but in reality, she had everything.

If she so desired, Albert would likely be eager to marry her without hesitation.

Jessie, feeling disgruntled, decided to take it out on Melissa.

She dialed Melissa’s number with the intention of making things difficult.

“I don’t want the necklace.

I want a ring.

Ask Albert if he would consider giving me a ring.

”

If Albert didn’t have to deliver the ring to Jessie personally, there might be a possibility of him fulfilling her request.

Maintaining a composed expression, Melissa inquired, “What’s your ring size?”

“Size 11.

Melissa, could you possibly make the decision for Albert?”

Remaining professional, Melissa informed, “Mr.

Watson has set a monthly spending limit of $20 million for you.
