?Chapter 1466:


    “This,” Melvin said, producing a small box like it was some kind of magic trick.


    His usual calm demeanor gave way to a hint of nervousness. “A ne.”


    Jessica’s eyes lit up at once. Yes, she still needed a ne.


    She took it from him, and her eyes gleamed when she saw what was inside—it was the exact piece she had been silently coveting for ages. “How’d you know I liked this one?”


    “You stared at it a few extra seconds when we were shopping the other day,” Melvin said. “And then you looked it up on their websiteter.”


    “You’re the best!” Jessica stood on her toes and kissed him on the cheek. “Put it on for me.”


    Melvin’s anxious heart immediately calmed down. He fastened the ne around her neck, making her corbone and neckline look even more refined.


    “No matter what anyone sayster, just ignore it,” Jessica told him, a little worried he might not know how to handle the situation. “I’ll take care of everything.”


    “Okay,” Melvin agreed without the slightest hesitation.


    Ten minutester, they were ready to head out.


    Looking down at his rather in outfit, Melvin asked a bit awkwardly, “Should I dress up more?”


    “No need,” Jessica said directly. He already looked amazing as he was. If he looked any better, she’d have to keep an eye out for girls trying to flirt with him. Even like this, she wished she could hide him from the world.


    At six in the evening, everyone had gathered outside Amara Kitchen, an exclusive venue known for its elegance and status.


    By the time Melvin and Jessica arrived, six people were already waiting—three men and three women. Clearly, three couples.


    “Long time no see.” The first to greet her was N Archer, the woman who had called Jessica earlier. She stepped forward as soon as Jessica stepped out of the car. “Is this your boyfriend’s ride?”


    Jessica replied coolly, “Is there a problem?”


    “No problem at all. I was just curious how someone driving something that ordinary ns to get us into Amara,” N said with disdain.


    ???? ??????? ?? ?????????.???


    “This doesn’t concern you.” Melvin got out of the car, moved to stand beside Jessica, and sped her hand. His detached, self-possessed energy was impossible to ignore.


    The moment he stepped forward, all three women turned to look at him.


    He was sharp and unfairly good-looking.


    “Hey, handsome, whatever Jessica’s paying you, I’ll double it,” N said, unable to tear her eyes from his face. “Be my boyfriend instead?”


    “I’ll triple it.”


    “Make it four times!”


    The other two women jumped in without missing a beat.


    To them, hiring someone to act as a fake boyfriend was just a few grand—easily affordable.
