My Wife is a Sassy Queen

In the Preston household, things were quiet.

Ever since they had found out Kyle was Jonathan Smith’s godson, everyone had wanted to integrate themselves with Kyle. But Jonathan had taken Kyle away and had not sent him back.

Liam had been busy with work, often going to assignments outside, and was barely home.

Finally, Grandma Preston could not take it and called Liam asking him to bring Kyle back.

Liam explained that Kyle was going on a family trip with the Smiths and will be back after that.

Grandma Preston disapproved of calling it a family trip since Kyle was a Preston and not a Smith, but she held her tongue.

The poor lad did not have anyone in the Prestons that could be called a family. It was good that at least the Smiths took care of him as their own.

The rest of the household listened with keen interest when Kyle was mentioned.

After all, it had come to everyone’s attention that Kyle was the Godson of Jonathan Smith, President of Smith Group, and his wife, founder of L&L Designs.

Everyone wanted those connections.

Liam’s cousin-in-law Julie and her sister Jessi wanted to get close to Jonathan.

The J sisters were confident that Jessi could get close to Jonathan and get her way. After all, she was young, pretty, and well-educated.

Julie used all her filial piety and acting skills to find out the details of their family trip.

Then they plotted to get inside their private cruise.

Since it was Jonathan’s own cruise, there was no way for them to get entry inside. Left with no choice, Jessi pretended to be a waitress and onboarded.

Finally, the luxurious cruise ship started.

It only had their family of five, five bodyguards, two hidden shadows, and twenty staff including waitresses, Skipper, his deputy, rescue personnel, chefs, and a nurse.

Jonathan knew the captain and deputy personally while the rest of the staff was selected by them and approved by one of the secretaries.

Jessi had a hotel management degree along with an internship and short-stint in one of the seven-star hotels which qualified her for the job.

Besides, she had no red flags on her background or resume. She was unsuited for a long-term contract, but for a three-week job, she was quite good.

As usual, even on a trip, Liliana expressly ordered everyone not to enter her bedroom or the kid’s bedroom. She would clean those herself.

After living together for months, Jonathan had also learned to clean their own and kids’ rooms. So, it became even easier. Especially as the kids did not create all that much mess as they grew up.

The family of five started the journey by standing on the deck as they watched the city become smaller and smaller.

They had some snacks and drinks as they played board games on the deck looking over the ocean and the city.

In the evening the kids ran around on the deck while the couple stayed on the deck just watching the kids and the view. Jonathan was standing behind Liliana with his arms around her waist as they stood on the deck enjoying their close proximity.

Jessi watched them from the lowest deck which was for the staff, eyes green with jealousy.

‘NO!’ Jessi was reluctant, ‘Only someone as sophisticated, well-educated, pretty, and with a good background as me was suited to be Mrs. Smith.’

Jessi had seen Jonathan in the seven-star hotel when she was working there on a short stint for the experience.

It had been love at first sight for her. She had tried to impress him with her immaculate performance and professionalism.

But Jonathan had not even glanced at her. Nor had he shown any interest in any other woman.

She had been obsessed with Jonathan since then, but her elder sister Julie had discouraged her despite wanting to enjoy the benefits of the connection.

Jonathan was not someone to be provoked.

But when Julie found out about Kyle and Liam’s connection with Jonathan, she had taken a chance.

The J sisters wanted to get close to Jonathan and use that connection to enhance their business and their presence in P city.

Being related to Kyle was their biggest bonus.

This trip would give Jessi the chance to get to know everyone better, so they could plan things accordingly.
