"What do you think, Hank? Are you in? I am only asking you to find a way to deliver it. I am not saying that you should hand the letter to your leader by yourself. You only need to mention Daisy's unethical conduct to your leaders at the right time. You won't get into trouble. Besides, what we are saying about Daisy are true facts. Then what are you afraid of?" Jessica said firmly. No matter what happened, she was determined to win this time. Otherwise, she would not know what to do with her unborn child. She couldn't imagine being an unmarried mother. It was ridiculous! She would not keep the baby if it weren't for Edward. Her excellent figure was ruined because of the pregnancy. But it was worth it if she could win back Edward.
"Don't be ridiculous. Who says I'm afraid? But why should I do this? It will take a lot of efforts and I will get nothing in return." Hank had coveted Jessica's beauty. But since he knew that she was Edward's woman, he gave up the idea of getting her. He didn't dare to ruffle Edward's feathers.
"What if you also get something in return? You just need to send the letter for me. You won't be involved in the matter, " Jessica said while placing a cheque for 5 million dollars in front of Hank. She was sure that he would take it. Money makes the mare go, and Hank was a hypocrite.
"Are you trying to bribe me?" When Hank saw the number on the cheque, he couldn't deny to himself that he wanted it. But this concerned his career, so he needed to be pretentious.
"Oh! Hank, don't say that. It's just a small token for buying some good tea, don't take it too seriously. Besides, it will be our little secret. No one will know about it. And we didn't know each other before so no one will think that we are connected, " Jessica said with a lovely smile. Her beautiful face became more attractive with the charming smile. She really had something to attract Edward, otherwise, she would not have stayed with Edward for so long.
Okay. Since you said that, it would be impolite if I don't take it. But I will only help you to send the letter. I'm sorry that I can't help you more." Hank kept the cheque in his pocket with a cunning smile. In fact, he had already planned to go to the pickets of the army to accuse Daisy of unethical conduct. It surprised him that someone else shared his views. He was more than happy to encash this opportunity to bring Daisy down and there was another person to take responsibility for this. It seemed like he was helping Jessica, when in fact, Jessica was helping him. He believed, as long as Daisy wasn't standing in his way, he would easily climb up his career ladder.
That's all right. You just need to finish this task. I hope we can have a good partnership!" Jessica sniffed at his actions. His behavior was an insult to the dignified uniform he wore. If she weren't in need of his help, she would be reluctant to speak with someone like him.
Okay! I hope we can collaborate successfully, too. And I also hope Miss Jessica can get what you want." Huh! Before the result came out, nobody knew who used whom. No one knew who would be the real winner. He who laughed last, laughed best.
"Okay. So it's a deal. After I leave here, we'll be strangers. I hope you can keep that in mind." Jessica had her own concerns. If the plan failed, she feared that Edward would know that it was her doing. But she couldn't hold back the desire to get back with Edward, so she took the risk and acted on the plan. She believed that Daisy's way of life was unbridled. She was a fault-finder, so she felt righteous in scheming against Daisy.
"Of course. Even if you didn't say it, I will follow this rule. If we meet on any other occasion, please pretend that we don't know each other." Hank also had his own plans. He had been paying special attention to Daisy recently. He had gathered many photos showing different luxurious cars picking her up to and from work. He also captured some pictures of her kissing a man at the gates of the military base. He decided to send the letter as well as the photos to the leaders, and it would be more convincing. He was eager to see whether Daisy would be able to win against such convincing evidence.
"I'm leaving now. Hank, wish you have a good career! Goodbye." Jessica heaved a sigh of relief. Now she only needed to wait for the good news to come. But before the plan succeeded, she decided to keep a low profile. She also felt the need to keep a safe distance from Edward in order to avoid the possibility of raising any suspicions. If Edward came to know about this, it wouldn't end well for Jessica.
Thanks! Miss Jessica. You must leave first. I will go later." Hank decided not to leave with Jessica. They needed to play safe to avoid any evidence for accusation.
Jessica gave a thoughtful smile. It surprised her that although this lecher seemed offensive, he was very careful. When he suggested that he would leave later, she immediately realized what he meant. She walked gracefully out of the booth, her slender waist twisting with her pace. Just as she left the place, a plot was brewed, and the target was the aloof beauty who was sitting busy with her work at the military base.
