The Unveiled Rose
Chapter 269

Yvonne wasn't sure how to answer Jessica's question. After pondering it for a while, she responded with, "What are you going to do now?" Jessica sounded troubled when she said, "I'll have to think of something."

She massaged the spot between her eyebrows and talked through the phone. "At least Steven's easy to deal with. Even if he wanted to break up with me, it wouldn't be a problem as long as I buy some time." Seeing the bigger picture, she said, "Also, you're working at Huxham Corporation, so you'll probably meet some rich and powerful men. Please keep an eye out for single men who are richer than Steven for me." That wasn't all. She had another request. "Send me their information. I'll filter out the men who have the potential to be my new boyfriend. I'll strike once I replace out their preferences."

Jessica wouldn't waste her time waiting for Steven to return to her side. She wouldn't beg him to fall in love with her all over again.

Steven loved Annalise. Therefore, the harder Jessica tried, the stronger his hatred for her would become. If he abandoned her, she'd be left with no money in her pocket.

That was why Jessica had to make good use of the time she had to go after other men. Not only could she be less anxious about the future, but she also felt that going after other men would be much easier! After hearing Jessica's request, Yvonne suddenly had an idea. "What do you think of Zane?"

Jessica hadn't interacted with Zane much and didn't know much about him. "Zane?"

"He likes Annalise," Yvonne explained. "So, he doesn't care if a woman was married before. The thing is, he's filthy rich. He's so rich that you can live the rest of your life without ever worrying about money. You won't even be able to spend all the money he has." "Besides, he's quite generous compared to Steven." She recounted, "Steven could give you jewelry and a mansion, but Zane founded a comic publishing company just for Annalise.

"She also decides how the company develops. He never held back in terms of money when it came to promoting her comics."

As a subordinate in the company, Yvonne admired Zane and looked up to him, even though he wasn't exactly kind to her. "Although the two of them didn't end up together... I'm sure that the money the company makes each year is enough for you to have a lavish life." Jessica was enticed. "Okay. I'll think of something," she said.

After hanging up, Jessica took out her laptop and started searching for information regarding Zane. He was exceptionally good at doing business and was also a righteous and honorable man.

The results of her search were mostly about Huxham Corporation's plans to expand its business and the company's achievements. There wasn't any gossip about Zane.

Leaning back on the couch, Jessica stared intently at the screen. An outstanding man like Zane was truly tempting. If she could capture his heart, she was sure he would pamper her and treat her exceptionally well.

A determined smile formed on her face. Zane liked Annalise.

Jessica laughed coldly at the thought. She could take Steven away from Annalise, so of course, she could do the same with Zane, too!

With her mind set, Jessica plucked her phone out of her pocket and called Steven.

"Hello?" she said when he answered the call.

"What is it?" Steven's voice was cold and distant.

"Can you take me to Huxham Corporation when you're free?" she asked. Without Steven keeping her company, she wouldn't be allowed to even step into the building, much less meet Zane.

Jessica was well aware of that. She wasn't a fool and knew that she needed help from someone with a bit of power in their hands. And Steven was the perfect choice for her.

After a moment of silence, Steven asked her, "Why do you want to go there?"
