The male housekeeper glanced at the sunflower in his hand and asked, “Do you like sunflowers, Ms. Marsh?”

“Why’d you ask?” Jessica responded.

“I came here to pick up my aunt a couple of times before. She said she needs to replace the sunflowers in your room with fresh ones every day. So I wondered if it’s because you liked it, and that’s why Mr. Lopez gave that order.”

A glint flashed across her eyes as she pursed her lips. “I dislike sunflowers because they symbolize lies.”

Coincidentally, Wyatt decided to visit Jessica that afternoon.

When he reached the third floor, before entering the bedroom, he heard the exchange between the male housekeeper and her.

He stopped in front of the door and listened to them speaking with each other.

Jessica explained in slight amusement, “While sunflowers look pretty when they are wrapped in sunlight, they have a deadly, criminal vibe to them.”

“Why do you say that?” the male housekeeper wondered.

“Because I used them to accomplish some tasks in the past. I should thank them, honestly.”

Wyatt chuckled silently as he tugged the sunflower hanging around his neck. As he gazed at it, he recalled the day Jessica bought it for him in Jetroina. That gesture seemed extremely ironic to him at that moment as he listened to her words. She is deadly, considering I failed so spectacularly and almost lost my life because of her.

Instead of kicking the door open or putting on a scowl, he expressionlessly headed downstairs. As a result, he didn’t hear the rest of what Jessica told the male housekeeper.

Inside the bedroom, Jessica naturally didn’t know Wyatt had visited her. She shifted her sight to the scenery outside the window as if she was thinking about something. “It’s because of sunflowers that I know how well a man can treat me and how much I can love him.”
