Chapter 326
Chapter 326 Mom’s visit
A sophisticated and elegant woman walked into the CEO's office. She was Avery Matthews. Even though she was fifty, she took such great care of herself that she looked just over thirty, radiating a timeless beauty.
Avery, Jessica’s biological mother, was a key figure in the third-ranked Matthews family of the prestigious eight families of New York. When she was younger, she fell in love with Jessica’s father, but after Jessica was born, she left her family and returned to the Matthews fold.

"I got it! Anything else? I have a meeting to attend."
Jessica was eager to be rid of her.
"Can’t we chat for a bit? It's been years since we last saw each other."
