When they got to Brian's car, Jessica jumped straight in the front passenger seat, leaving Diana and Jessica's agent sitting in the back.

It was tough for Diana to swallow, being overshadowed like that.

Meanwhile, Jessica ignored her and felt totally at ease doing so.

On the way to the company, Brian introduced some information about the William Group to Jessica.

However, Jessica's attention was clearly not on business. She made use of every minute to ask him as many private questions as she could.

"Mr. William, you're so successful. May I ask, are you married?"

Brian shook his head, which gave Jessica welcome hope. However, her optimism was quickly dashed by his next words.

"But I'm going to marry my fiancée soon."

With that, Brian turned around to Diana. His smile filled Diana's heart with love.

"Fiancée?" Jessica said incredulously.

"Yes, Miss Anderson is my fiancée."

Diana offered her hand to Jessica, "Nice to meet you, Miss Reagan. I'm Diana Anderson."

Jessica held out her hand to shake Diana's. At the same time, she was sizing Diana up. Upon comparison, Jessica concluded that she was superior to Diana in every aspect. She felt a strong sense of disdain towards her.

When they arrived at the company, Brian suggested Diana go home first.

"I'll show the design department to Miss Reagan."

"Fine," Diana agreed.

She trusted Brian completely. So she listened to him and went home.

Jessica was glad to see Diana leave. She held Brian's arm and said, "Shall we go, Mr. William?"

Her forwardness made Brian embarrassed. He pulled his hand away slightly. "Here we go."

Brian's refusal didn't make Jessica unhappy. She walked next to him, smiling to herself.

"Miss Reagan, the William Group, was founded by my grandfather. Now I am the president of the company. I want to give you a quick tour of the building if that might interest you?" Brian opened the door for Jessica and her agent.

Jessica rolled her eyes and hit him with another off-topic question.

"Mr. William, what do you like to do in your spare time? Any hobbies?"

Brian smiled awkwardly, "Miss Reagan, let's talk about our cooperation first."

Brian persevered in keeping the discussions on business, though the whole time, he could see Jessica staring at him. He felt a little uncomfortable, but he continued patiently.

No matter what Brian said, Jessica always agreed with him.

"So, Miss Reagan, shall we sign the contract?"

"Yes, I would be happy to." Jessica agreed without hesitation.

When Brian got home that evening, Diana had already prepared dinner for him.

"How come you're so early today?" She called out from the kitchen.

"Because I missed you!"

Brian was relieved to be home. He went to hug Diana.

His stresses immediately eased in Diana's warm embrace. In Brian's eyes, Jessica was nothing compared to Diana.

Diana pushed him away gently. "Go get washed for dinner."

"Yes, madam."

With that, he went to the bathroom.

During the dinner, Brian tried every dish and praised Diana again and again.

Diana didn't say much in reply, simply smiling a little here and there.

"Diana, are you unhappy about Jessica?" Brian asked.

Diana pretended to be angered by his question.

"Do you want the truth?

"Definitely." Brian felt anxious.

The strained look on Brian's face amused Diana. She couldn't help laughing, "What are you thinking? The company is in crisis. I know you have to do whatever it takes. If Jessica can help, then so be it."

Brian was moved by her words. He stood up and planted a kiss on her cheek. "Thank you, Diana. You're amazing."

Brian was worried that Diana would be jealous of Jessica, which would have put him in quite a dilemma. After all, Jessica was his company's best candidate for the chief designer.

Diana put down the chopsticks and looked at Brian seriously. She didn't want any more misunderstandings between them since she had decided to be with him.

"Brian, the only thing I'm afraid of is that you don't trust me."

"I got you. Thank you for your understanding." Brian pulled Diana into his arms.

Simultaneously, in Jessica's villa, Calvin passed a glass of wine to Jessica, who was sitting beside the window.

"Calvin, look at the moon, it is so beautiful tonight." It seemed she was in a good mood.

However, Calvin was preoccupied with something.

"Jessica, Mr. William is engaged. You'd better keep a bit of distance from him."

Jessica grinned. "What can I do? I have already set my heart on him."

Calvin could see the confidence and cunning in her eyes; there was nothing that could stop her from getting what she wanted.

The first rays of morning sunshine gently nudged Diana and Brian out of their slumber.

Brian woke first, taking a chance to look at the beautiful woman beside him.

Diana stretched her arms out to the sides and gave a big yawn.

"What time is it now?"

"Seven, it's time to get up," Brian replied. After a quick kiss, Brian coaxed Diana up out of bed and to the bathroom.

As they brushed their teeth in front of the mirror, Brian was in a playful mood, trying to make Diana laugh by tickling her sides.

Diana struggled not to show weakness. She fought back, in the same way, laughing at Brian's silliness.

They were full of tenderness and love for each other.

***

It was tough for Jessica to see the loving couple on her first day at work.

Although she was very jealous, she still kept smiling.

"Good morning, Mr. William and Miss Anderson."

Diana smiled at Jessica.

Brian was holding Diana's hand. To Jessica, it felt like they were doing it on purpose. Their intimacy fueled her anger even more.

"Mr. William, oh sorry, I mean boss, I'm here to check in for work." She spoke purposely just to Brian and ignored Diana's presence.

"See you later, then…" Diana noticed Jessica's impoliteness but let it be and left to start work.

After Diana left, Jessica started to behave more charmingly. She came close to Brian and held his arm.

"So, where is my office?"
