Remarried Wife: She will Remarry, But Another Person-Chapter 164: Whoever Marries This Soft Waist Wins Big
Tessa’s gossiping spark instantly extinguished, her expression full of regret.
Sabrina watched this with speechless amusement.
"Your attempts to pair me with Mr. Fitzgerald aren’t very logical, right? How could things develop that way between him and me?"
Let’s not even mention her recent divorce.
Most of their previous interactions revolved around Zara’s autism.
At other times, they were mostly polite to each other.
Their relationship only got closer around the New Year.
She wasn’t even in Veridia anymore, so why suddenly play matchmaker?
Sabrina couldn’t help but ask, "Are you planning to change careers and open a marriage agency?"
Tessa was choked by this, then shrugged her shoulders, "Not really. The main thing is, this time when I went abroad to see my parents, they actually urged me to marry. Every day they lectured me about prime male elites, optimal career choices, family background, and matching social status.
The most outrageous part is, they somehow gathered a bunch of photos for me to choose from..."
Talking about this, Tessa couldn’t stop herself, "You know me, as a seasoned face-judge, any potential partner I select has to be based on looks first, then other conditions.
But the ones my parents picked, though they have good conditions, none of them meet my standards in terms of appearance!"
Sabrina finally understood, "So, after returning to the country, you started randomly pairing people?"
Tessa didn’t deny it, "You can’t blame me... mainly because you two are so good-looking. Let’s not mention the princess carry right in front of me! My brain couldn’t help but autonomously trigger a reaction to ’match’ you guys!"
She then raised her phone again to look at the photo, "Come on, tell me, doesn’t this ambiance have that feeling?"
Sabrina was forced to glance at the earlier picture again.
She had only glanced at it hastily before, but now that her bestie emphasized it, she inexplicably felt that the vibe seemed... a bit off.
Mr. Fitzgerald was fine.
Although he was holding her, he looked straightforward ahead, behaving steadily, without a hint of any other thoughts.
She, however, seemed different.
Her brows slightly lowered, and her expression, due to being at a loss, somehow gave off a shy vibe.
Sabrina was taken aback.
Was her expression like that at the time?
Was it a problem with the photo angle???
"Oh, Sabrina, you look a little seductive here? Look at your shy expression and those reddening ears..."
Tessa clearly noticed this too and teased by nudging her, "Confess, did your heart race when you were in Mr. Fitzgerald’s arms?"
Sabrina, embarrassed and guilty, flatly denied, "No, don’t talk nonsense."
Then she raised her hand, intending to snatch the phone, "Stop looking, delete the photo, if someone sees it, it’ll lead to unnecessary misunderstandings."
Tessa quickly dodged, "No, why delete it? Such a good-looking photo can totally be wallpaper; deleting it would be such a waste.
Besides, so what if someone misunderstands?
You’re currently single, and Mr. Fitzgerald isn’t attached... if things naturally develop into that kind of relationship, what’s wrong with it?"
Sabrina shook her head, "I haven’t dared to think of that."
Although, when interacting with Jasper, she occasionally had absurd thoughts.
But she knew that everything was just an illusion created by his gentle and considerate nature.
There was no possibility between them.
Not to mention, her mind was not on this at all for now; she just wanted to focus on her career.
Tessa examined her seriously from top to bottom and sincerely suggested, "I think this is worth thinking about! Our conditions are great, with such a perfect figure, the new commercial upstart of Veridia, a strong woman, and a soft, adorable baby like Zara to boot, it’s simply a buy-one-get-one-free deal, right?
Anyone who marries you hits the jackpot!"
Sabrina couldn’t help but laugh after hearing that, "Only you might think that way in this world."
Tessa immediately retorted, "Who says so? I believe that apart from Jordan Hawthorne, who is blind, everyone else can definitely see how attractive you are!
For example, Josee Sheffield, willing to cooperate with you even after so many years apart, trusts your abilities, right?
And Mr. Fitzgerald, who sought you out several times for treatment, even taking you up the mountain...
Work charm is one of the biggest weapons to attract the opposite sex!
I don’t know what they currently think, but if it were me, I’d definitely be head over heels for you!"
After saying this, she acted like a hooligan, suddenly hugged Sabrina and clicked her tongue, "Tsk tsk, feel this soft waist, makes one not want to let go, feels amazing!"
Sabrina felt the restless motion around her waist and couldn’t help but laugh and cry.
It was getting more exaggerated!
She stopped her by the wrist and said, "Although your compliments make me happy, could you consider the injured party and not put all your weight on me? If this continues, I’ll have a second injury."
It wasn’t until then that Tessa had a conscience and quickly let go, "Oh, then sit down quickly, is the injury serious?"
Sabrina replied coolly, "Only now you care, too late!"
Tessa laughed ingratiatingly, "Not too late, not too late. Uncle and aunt haven’t returned yet, so just right, I can accompany you these two days and take care of you, sort of making up for the earlier negligence."
Sabrina feigned haughtiness and snorted.
Tessa quickly tried to placate her.
After the two fooled around for a while, they finally settled down.
Later, Sabrina was indeed tired and went directly back to her room to shower.
Just as it ended, Jasper Fitzgerald sent a message asking, "Are you still okay by yourself?"
Sabrina Hayes felt a warmth in her heart and took the opportunity to inform him of her best friend’s return.
Upon hearing that someone was taking care of her, Jasper Fitzgerald was finally less worried!
He added, "See you at the Lantern Festival. In the next few days, I will sort out Zara’s second phase of treatment plan and discuss it with you in detail then."
Sabrina felt invigorated, "Okay, thank you, Mr. Fitzgerald."
Jasper replied, "It’s no trouble, get some rest early, goodnight."
...
Over the next two days, while recovering at home, Sabrina didn’t idle.
The research institute had officially opened two days earlier.
Taking this chance, she quickly organized the data collected and sent it to the team, also drafting a new research and development plan and strategy.
When Josee Sheffield found out, he came over with various fruits and supplements to visit her, "How did you end up injured after just one trip out? If it’s too dangerous next time, don’t go. It’s true the company needs to expand its business, but doesn’t necessarily have to use such methods."
In his eyes, Sabrina’s safety was far more important than networking.
Sabrina explained, "There was no danger. I accidentally fell while climbing a ladder. The military camp is the safest place!"
Seeing she wasn’t lying, Josee nodded.
Sabrina then asked, "Has the company been alright these days?"
Before she left, issues between the Hawthorne Group and Sinclairs Corporation were causing a stir, but upon returning, there seemed to be no news.
She wondered if the other party had caused any more trouble since then.
Josee had an idea of what she wanted to ask, so he cut to the chase, "The company is fine. Before you left, the Hawthorne Group decided to let things settle. After paying compensation, they kept a low profile and suppressed the news, and have now pretty much detached themselves.
As for the Sinclairs Corporation, as expected, they’re almost bankrupt. However, Jordan Hawthorne still cares about the woman he loves and left her a bit of a path.
But that path is insignificant.
The only good news, perhaps, is that Brooke Sinclairs is scorned by everyone, and is not welcomed at Hawthorne Group!"
"Not just unwelcome?"
At this moment, Tessa emerged with freshly washed fruits, chiming in, "I heard from friends that Florence Scott has already started looking for a new daughter-in-law!
Before, the Sinclair Family was doing well, and with Brooke Sinclairs putting on airs, she charmed the Hawthornes so much they thought no one else would do.
Now, with Sinclairs Corporation in decline and Brooke having done such shameful things, the Hawthornes have become disenchanted with her!
I bet that woman is now afraid she’ll be abandoned and kicked out of the Hawthorne Family any day now..."
Talking about this, she couldn’t help but feel a bit gleeful, "Isn’t this what they call karma? It’s just that... it came around really fast!"
Sabrina wasn’t at all surprised.
The Hawthornes, barring the late matriarch, were always all about interests.
Since Sinclairs couldn’t bring great benefits to Hawthorne Group, they naturally became very critical.
However, Sabrina had a different opinion on whether Brooke Sinclairs would be kicked out of the Hawthorne Family.
Jordan Hawthorne had an obsessive admiration and favoritism for that woman.
To be with her, he was willing to abandon his wife and daughter, and even after Brooke Sinclairs had committed so many outrageous acts, he didn’t mind, keeping her around.
Presumably, he wouldn’t easily drive her away.
Of course, this was no longer her concern.
As long as those two didn’t act foolishly and provoke her again, she’d be fine.
Not wanting to dwell on those two, Sabrina quickly changed the subject to business matters.
Josee noticed and followed her lead, "After the Lantern Festival, there’s an Artificial Intelligence Summit, and many well-known domestic companies will be invited.
This time, our N.Z. Tech is also on the list, you’ll need to attend then!
If all goes well, the system we developed earlier should win an award.
Additionally, the government will have some support policies... this is a good opportunity to connect with officials. Our system might even be used internally by the government in the future!"
"Really?"
Sabrina’s eyes lit up.
Josee nodded and continued, "You need to be mentally prepared. Many people may be approaching you... poaching attempts might be inevitable!"
Tessa listened and was full of praise, "Wow, isn’t our Sabrina quite the catch now?"
Josee nonchalantly replied, "Naturally, so I have to be careful to not let my partner be poached!"
Sabrina chuckled, "Don’t worry, I won’t be poached. In my hardest times, President Sheffield didn’t abandon me, and that’s how I achieved what I have today. If I betray now, wouldn’t that be too ungrateful? Unless..."
She paused and jokingly added, "The offer is good enough!"
That made Tessa laugh out loud, "Oh no, President Sheffield needs to have a sense of crisis, there are probably many willing to spend big bucks!"
Josee looked serious, saying, "The competition is indeed intense... but I won’t lose."
Whether spending money or anything else, he wasn’t willing to let her go.
Sabrina didn’t catch on to his underlying intention, but her heart was already filled with anticipation for the summit.
Tessa was too.
However, she was more curious whether Hawthorne Group would be invited?
Although the company had a tarnished reputation, its standing in Veridia hadn’t been easily shaken.
She really wanted to see the wonderful expressions on their faces when Sabrina shone brightly!!!
