His Precious Love

Chapter 312 Are You Ready
In the end, the three men left the booth together.
Feeling curious, Rayna turned to Jessica. “You were the nearest to Wyatt, Jessie. Did you hear what Mr. Tylinski was telling them?”
Jessica shook her head. “Mr. Tylinski was really sneaky about it and kept his volume down. I couldn’t hear anything at all.”
Needless to say, that left Rayna feeling even more perplexed. How odd. Where could they have gone to?
“They probably have something to tend to,” Jasmine replied casually as she filled Rayna’s glass with red wine. “Even though we’re on vacation, they can’t possibly leave important company matters alone, can they?”
Upon hearing that, Rayna bobbed her head in agreement.
“Oh, let them be. It gives us a nice opportunity to chat!” Jessica said as she happily slid closer to her friend. “Ms. Sanders, I heard your company is hiring. What do you think about me?”
“We are, indeed, but we wouldn’t want to hire you.”
Jessica immediately pouted. “Why not? I’m so capable I can replace an entire team!”
Jasmine merely took a sip of her wine and said nothing more.
Rayna, on the other hand, burst out laughing. “Oh, she wouldn’t dare to hire you! Given how clingy Wyatt is, he’s bound to follow you wherever you go. Even though he can be quite a rascal, I have to admit he’s a brilliant businessman. Theodore and the rest may have a good relationship, but there are still areas where Faymon Group and Sanders Group are direct competitors. Furthermore, Wyatt is in Faymon Group’s international business department. There’s no way Curtis would want him to leave.”
Jasmine nodded in silence.
“How the hell is he brilliant? He has nothing but lewd thoughts in his mind!” Jessica scoffed. “For all you know, he might bump into a beautiful spy at a party and be seduced into spilling every secret he knows.”
Rayna couldn’t help but roar in laughter. “Hahaha! That’s spot on! That being said, why did you agree to the engagement if you despise him so much? Aren’t you contradicting yourself?”

Jessica rested her chin on her hand and sighed. “That’s because I’m a sucker for good-looking men. I can’t pry myself away from him.”
“Wyatt is indeed a good man. Sure, he can be mischievous, but he never steps out of line,” Jasmine said earnestly as she smiled at Jessica. “I’ve met many scions who have no shame in abusing their wealth and privilege. Some have slept with so many women that they end up with a handful of illegitimate children.”
“Yes, I’ve heard about that, too,” Rayna chimed in. “I know about Wyatt’s past scandals, and I agree that his preference for supermodels with ample bosoms and long legs is quite off-putting. However, he has always behaved himself when he’s in a committed relationship. Even if it doesn’t work out, he’ll compensate the girl and ensure they’ve made a clean break before he moves on.”
Jasmine curled her lips into a smile. “Hear that? Who knew Wyatt could have such a gentle and responsible side to him? I guess this is what people mean when they say anyone can change for the better upon meeting the right partner.”
Jessica, however, only felt a twinge of discomfort in her chest.
Argh! How I wish I could tell them my truth. All that talk about changing for the better is nothing but a load of nonsense. Sooner or later, it will be a case of like father, like son! These men are merely out to cheat women of their feelings!
In the end, Jessica decided against it and held her tongue.
Having noticed the change in Jessica’s expression, Rayna quickly wrapped an arm around her shoulder. “Jessie, the success of any relationship has to depend on both parties. No matter how annoying he is, you can’t deny that he has changed for you. Have a little more faith in him.”
“That’s right,” Jasmine added. “Besides, we have our ways of punishing him if he ever bullies you.”
“You guys…” Jessica mumbled as she got all teary-eyed. “Lady Luck must be shining on me this year. I can’t believe I could meet and become such good friends with the two of you.”
Rayna’s smile grew brighter at that. “Fate has brought us together, and there’s no escaping from it!”
Jessica glanced at her friend and bit her lip.
Meeting Jasmine was an accident, but befriending Rayna was all part of my plan for revenge. Alas, who knew our friendship would blossom so well? I’m sorry, Rayna. I’ve lied to you for far too long…
Since Jessica had lowered her head, Rayna couldn’t see the flash of guilt on her friend’s face. She went on to raise her glass of wine and said, “In any case, this is the first festive occasion since the three of us became friends! This calls for a celebration!”
“Okay, but let’s make one thing clear. I won’t financially support either of you if you ever become poor,” Jasmine joked as she, too, raised her glass. “I can help in other matters, but don’t count on me if it’s money-related.”
“Wow, must you be so harsh?” Rayna retorted. “Your son is still waiting for me to give him a little princess. Who knows? We might end up becoming in-laws!”
A faint smile instantly crept across Jasmine’s face. “Go ahead and give us the little princess, then. When you do, we’ll be more than happy to pay for all the wedding expenses!”
“That generous, huh?”
“Of course! Our daughter-in-law deserves nothing but the best!”
After listening to her friends discuss the future, Jessica couldn’t help but laugh along with them as she gently placed a hand on her abdomen.
My belly’s all flat now, but I know a baby will start growing inside in just a month.
Casting all her meticulous plans aside, Jessica smiled and clinked glasses with her friends. “All right! Here’s a toast to our friendship! Let’s hope we’ll still be together next Christmas!”
“Cheers!”
The women continued drinking the delicious red wine to their hearts’ content, and the more they talked about their future, the more they seemed to have forgotten about the men.
Just then, the upbeat dance music stopped abruptly, much to the surprise of everyone on the dance floor.
