Daddy! Mommy Is Pregnant Again

"It's because of Jessie." The assistant lowered her head, "Didn't she take a leave of absence two days ago? She distributed all the work in her hands and gave it to the people below her, including some work that she could only handle, she also distributed it."

"What?" Violet stood up in surprise, "The business that only she could handle was distributed?"

"Yes." The assistant nodded, "I was surprised and asked her why she did this, and she said that there was a chance she wouldn't be able to come back, so that's why she distributed these work early, so that people could get familiar with the work, so I guessed that she is going to resign from her position, so I asked you if you want to recruit a new director."

So that was the case.

After hearing the assistant's words, Violet's red lips pursed up tightly.

How could she not expect that Jessie would actually divide all her work among the people below her?

And Jessie actually said something about the possibility of never coming back.

What did that mean?

Was Jessie really planning to resign?

Violet bit her lip.

But that wasn't right, if Jessie really wanted to quit, there was no way she wouldn't have told her.

Furthermore, the company was owned by both of them, and what good would it do for her to resign as the second shareholder? Where could she go if she resigned?

And at first they said that they would grow the company properly, develop it into a public company and then create their own luxury brand.

However, now that the goal had not been achieved, there was no way that Jessie would quit and leave.

So there was something going on here, for sure.

Thinking, Violet squeezed her palms and looked to her assistant, "Alright, I know, you go out first."

"Yes." The assistant responded and was about to leave.

But after just two steps, Violet thought of something else and opened her mouth to call out to her, "Wait."

"Do you have any more orders, Miss Hunt?" The assistant stopped and turned her head to ask.

Violet spoke, "You go now and take back all the work that can only be handled by Jessie and put it in Jessie's office."

"Okay." The assistant nodded in response.

Violet sat down again and pinched her brow.

No matter what, for the work that can only be handled by Jessie, she could not just hand it over to the people below, after all, a lot of this involved company secrets, and she was not comfortable handing it over to the people below.

Also, she didn't want the job to be tainted by someone else.

Of course, if Jessie really quit, that was another story, of course.

She just couldn't believe that Jessie would quit.

Thinking about this, Violet took out her phone and dialed Jessie's number.

The phone was soon connected and Jessie's somewhat tired voice came, "Violet, what's wrong?"

"Jessie, are you planning to resign?" Violet asked in a deep voice.

Jessie's face changed when she heard this, "I ......"

Hearing the panic in her tone, Violet's heart sank and her brows furrowed unexpectedly, "Why, Jessie?"RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

She squeezed her phone tightly, "Jessie, if the assistant hadn't just told me about finding a new director to take over your job, I wouldn't have known that you handed over all your work!" Listening to Violet's angry words, Jessie lowered her head knowing that she was at a disadvantage, "I'm sorry, Violet, I......"

"Don't tell me you're sorry yet, Jessie, tell me first, why are you doing this? Are you really planning to resign? Even if you are, why didn't you tell me? Instead, you chose to hand over your job in secret?" Violet's chest was heaving violently in anger.

"I don't want to resign." Jessie's voice suddenly choked up, "I really don't want to quit, I'm sorry, Violet, I did it because I had no choice, the reason I didn't tell you was because I know you definitely wouldn't agree, so I did it secretly, I'm really sorry, Violet."

She said guiltily.

Violet took a deep breath, tried to calm the anger inside, and asked, "What made you do this? We agreed at first that we would grow and expand the company together, and now you suddenly want to leave me alone, Jessie, do you think it's fair to me if you do this?"

." Jessie's mouth opened, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, nothing came out, only the guilt in her heart made her keep crying.

Violet rubbed her face, "All right Jessie, tell us, why exactly you have to leave behind the company we founded together? Tell me, if I can help you, I will definitely help you, maybe you won't have to feel bitter anymore, right?"

Jessie shook her head, "No, you can't help me, no one can help me."

"How do you know I can't help?" Violet only felt tired.

Jessie wiped the corners of her eyes, "Violet, I know you're being kind and doing me a favor, but this is something I know very well, you really can't help, so Violet, don't ask, okay? Please, don't ask, when the time comes, you'll know what my suffering is."

After saying that, she simply hung up the phone.

"Hello? Hello?" Violet shouted twice into the other end of the phone and heard no response, bringing to her eyes, only then did she realize that the phone was hung up.

Violet's brow furrowed as her heart became anxious and angry.

She was pissed off that Jessie just hung up the phone without explaining anything clearly, that she had no sense of responsibility to her and their company.

And she had absolutely no idea what was happening to Jessie, and she was worried that something had happened to her.

"No, I have to ask." Violet picked up her phone again.

Just now, although Jessie didn't say anything, but she heard the desperation in her voice.

She didn't know what had happened to make Jessie so desperate, but what she could be sure of was that it must not be anything trivial.

If she didn't ask for clarification, she might regret it.

Violet dialed Jessie's mother's number.

The phone was also answered, and Jessie's mother's kind voice came, "Is that Violet?"

"Yes, it's me." Violet suppressed the worry in her heart and said with a smile, "How are you doing?"

"Good, I am good." Jessie's mother said cheerfully.

Violet nodded, "Good, by the way, did Jessie go back to your place?"

She asked.

Jessie's mother glanced back at her daughter's room and replied with a smile, "Yeah, she came back two days ago, she said she was homesick and came back to keep us company, what's wrong, Violet? Did you want Jessie go back to work?"

"No, no, no, no, it's been a long time since Jessie has taken a vacation, so let her spend more time with you, but, I want to ask Jessie about her recent situation." Violet's expression got serious.

When Jessie's mother saw how serious she sounded, she followed suit, "Okay, go ahead."

"Is there anything unusual about Jessie being at home lately?"

Jessie's mother was full of confusion, "No, Jessie is the same as usual, there is nothing abnormal, Violet, why are you asking this?"

Violet sighed, "It's because something happened to Jessie at work recently, so that's why I'm asking."

"So that's how it is." Jessie's mother nodded in a daze, then added, "But there's really nothing abnormal about Jessie lately."

"Really no? When I contacted her earlier, her mood wasn't quite right. Think about it, I'm worried about Jessie." Violet added, with a hint of begging in her tone.

Jessie's mother agreed and began to think in earnest about whether there was anything wrong with her daughter in the past two days.‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒
