Chapter 1474:
“You done yet?” Jessica asked flatly, her patience thinner than a thread. “Move. I'm leaving.”
She knew this type well. Sure, sguys fell for flirty smiles, but the ones who mattered wanted control, not to
be led around like puppies. How was Nyla still this clueless?
Finally, Nyla stepped aside.

“Truth only,” Rena added, enjoying the scene.
“Jessica’s the only woman I've ever dated,” Melvin said without hesitation. “And the only one I love.” His tone
was steady, his expression unreadable. The words hung heavy in the air like stones dropped in water.
For a second, not a soul dared speak.
Jessica squeezed his hand gently, eyes shining like stars.
Nyla’s teeth pressed together behind her forced smile. “Second question: What's your title at the company you
