You More than Anything in the World (Arissa)

Jennifer slapped his hand away. “Move your hand away and stop it.”

After a slight pause, she continued, “Bring it to me. I’d like to check it.”

The person who came laughed heartily and said, “It’s been ages since we’ve met, and you’ve become so much prettier, Jennifer. However, your temper seems to be becoming worse, huh? Tsk… But it’s fine. I like girls with a hot temper.”

Snorting, Jennifer scoffed, “I bet that I’m not even as important as a few bills to you, right?”

He snapped his fingers and smiled. “Bingo! You know me the best, Jennifer. However, I love both money and beautiful ladies. If you sleep with me for one night, I can give you a little discount. How’s that?”

“Cut the crap and give it to me,” snapped Jennifer unhappily as she frowned.

He did not make any further comments and tossed the envelope on the table. “This is what you want.”

When Jennifer took the item out, her expression changed drastically. Fury was written all over her face.

He asked, “How’s that? These are probably what you want, right?”

Suppressing her anger, Jennifer snarled, “It’s been years since I’ve last met you, but you are still as skillful at secretly filming people as before. I’ll transfer the amount we agreed on to your bank account. Give me the films.”

He passed them to her before smiling. “Jennifer, the only benefit of collaborating with you is how generous you are. I like generous clients like you. If there’s more work that’s as profitable as this, remember to hit me up!”

Jennifer kept the films, stood up, and said, “Stop calling me for no reason anymore. I don’t want to see you at all.”

With that, she left directly.

The person sat on the chair leisurely, an indifferent smile playing on his lips. “Jennifer, you may act all mighty now, but there’ll be one day where you’ll come looking for me. When that day comes, I’ll be yearning for your hot body instead of money.”

Jennifer could not be bothered about what the man sitting in the café was thinking about. Holding the envelope, she sat into her car and tossed it aside angrily. Through gritted teeth, she growled, “Amelia, we’re enemies now. Despite being married to the heir of the Clinton Corporations, you’re still seducing Carter like a greedy temptress. If that’s the case, I’ll not let you get any of them.”

Seething with anger, she slammed the steering wheel and screamed like a trapped beast. She snarled in a deep voice, “Amelia, Carter’s mine, regardless of whether he loves me or not. If you dare to steal him away from me, I’ll make you lose everything that you have.”

After venting her anger, she quickly drove back to the office and stomped to Carter’s office. She took a deep breath and waited for her rationality to return before knocking on the door. Carter called out from within, “Come in.”

Jennifer entered and closed the door behind her.

When Carter raised his head and saw that it was her, an impatient look flashed across his eyes inconspicuously. However, he quickly resumed his normal expression and asked, “What’s the matter, Ms. Larson?”

Jennifer pulled the chair aside and sat down. “Mr. Scott, I’d like to talk to you about something.”

Gesturing for her to speak, he said, “Go ahead, I’m all ears.”
