A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 2798

"What do you mean? What else do I want? As I businessman, I naturally strive for profit. Ever since ancient times, the victor wins glory while the loser is condemned. The same rule applies to business as well," replied Jake coldly.

Is that all to it? Jessica scrutinized him suspiciously. There are probably some personal reasons involved, right?

"Joan's already dead. Your enemy is no longer alive, so please, just focus on your business and stop stirring up trouble!"

When Jessica said that, a grim look crept into Jake's eyes.

He thought that Joan's death would bring him excitement. To his surprise, when he received news of it, he was racked with sorrow and fury.

It was only then that he realized his own feelings.

Right from the start, he had always loved Joan.

He thought that he had fallen in love with Joan's assistant. However, it was merely an excuse for him to get close to Joan despite knowing very well that she was unattainable. This world's crazy, huh? Jake closed his eyes and sighed gently, trying to calm himself.

"If you're here to reprimand me, I'm sorry to say that you can leave now," said Jake bluntly.

He's unreasonable! Jessica spun around and stomped out in her high heels, leaving Jake in the office. With narrowed eyes, he peered out of the window, his silhouette looking quite lonely.

He yearned to meet Joan one last time, but it was too late.

"Should we continue, Mr. Wilson?" His assistant walked over and asked carefully.

"Yes! We must get our hands on Norton Corporation!" replied Jake firmly.

His goal had always been to acquire Norton Corporation. However, he did not expect that Larry would convert it into a fashion company.

Joan's death further solidified his resolve to acquire Norton Corporation. Perhaps, he was furious that Larry failed to take good care of Joan, or he was merely jealous of him.
