"Jessica, even your mother has agreed on the engagement between you and Zachariah, the deputy director general's son. Now that you've brought home a boyfriend, it would be so embarrassing for them."

When Jessica's aunt spoke, she deliberately scanned Alex from head to toe in distaste. She was obviously hinting and telling Alex that his opponent was the deputy director general's son. You should back away if you know what's good for you.

The Saffin family was cursed, so Jessica was the only heir to the family.

So, the family had always been concerned about Jessica's marriage.

After all, Jessica was beautiful, and if she handed her future to her family, they would make the best arrangement out of it.

Zachariah's obsession, for example, was the product of their labor.

Kitty thought about how she and her daughter were alone, so the former let the family take charge of her daughter's marriage. As such, Alex was there on a mission that day.

Alex was contented with a secretary as capable as Jessica, so when the latter asked for his help, he couldn't say no.

Hence, Alex wasn't bothered by Jessica's aunt's threat. He promised that he would help Jessica, so it wouldn't matter if he were against the son of a puny deputy director general. Alex would not back down even if the tyrants from Lumenopolis were there.

"That is none of my business. I never said that I would go out with Zachariah, and you guys never asked me," refuted Jessica.

"You are such an immature child. We're doing this for your sake! After returning from his studies overseas, Zachariah landed a job with the government immediately. Furthermore, he is handsome and comes from a powerful family. He is not the kind of man that an average joe can beat."

Jessica's aunt never explicitly said that Alex, Jessica's current "boyfriend", was nothing compared to Zachariah, but her words were so obvious that everyone could receive the message.

"What does his family being powerful have to do with me? I am my own person, and as far as I am concerned, Alex is the best," defended Jessica angrily.

"You are such a stubborn child... By the way, Alex, what is your job?" asked Jessica's aunt, who targeted Alex when she realized that she couldn't convince Jessica otherwise.

Alex was going to answer as he and Jessica had previously agreed on when he saw a handsome young man in a tuxedo walking over. The young man carried a bunch of bags with him.

"Grandma, I, Zachariah, wish you a happy birthday and a lifetime of health," said the young man as he bowed to the elderly lady with an enormous grin across his face.

"Ah, you are so kind. You didn't have to get me any gifts. It's sufficient to just come and visit me," replied Victoria as she smiled. Zachariah seemed like a good kid. It's such a pity that Jessica isn't interested in him.

"It's nothing. I just got you some supplements," replied Zachariah modestly,

"Alright, come sit with us," said Victoria as she nodded. She couldn't help but sigh internally for him.

If she was being honest, she actually favored Zachariah because his father used to be her subordinate.

However, her granddaughter didn't like him, so she couldn't say anything.

"It's been a while, Jessica," greeted Zachariah with a smile after he had greeted every single one of Jessica's

aunts.

However, Zachariah's smile soon froze when he saw that Jessica was holding another's man's hand.
