However, Jessica gradually fell in love with Casper after she got to know him better. There was a time when she even considered spending a lifetime with him.


    Casper''s parents detested her, which was something she hadn''t expected. They had been picking on her since the day they met and had always looked down their nose at her and criticized her.


    At first, Jessica understood their condescending behavior toward her. After all, she hadn''te from a well-off family, and Casper was way out of her league at the time.


    It was only normal that his parents would disapprove of her. She worked hard to please them, hoping she could win them over, but her efforts were to no avail.


    Jessica took a deep breath. She swallowed her resentment and rposed herself. At this point, she hoped Annalise''s products would gain even more poprity on the market so she could follow in thetter''s footsteps.


    As long as she copied Annalise''s marketing form, she would make good money, too. s, for all the designing she had done for her collectibles, she had yet to engage a manufacturer to produce them.


    Not that she had time to dwell on the negative side of things. She had a lot of work on her te, and it wasn''t until she had cleared her to-do list that she finally settled down and rang up a few manufacturers.


    Unfortunately, most of the manufacturers in the locality had been engaged by Annalise since her designer collectibles sparked a new rage amongic fans. Jessica couldn''t find one that would take up her orders.


    But she did not mind. She could always work together with manufacturers from other cities. She only needed them for logistical purposes anyway, and the cities in which they were based did not matter at all.


    After going through the sales numbers, Jessica contacted the manufacturers from the other cities and negotiated with them to start production right away.


    As for the first payment, she haggled with the manufacturers so that they could ensure the best quality for the price she named. As a result, she did not have to invest that much in the first payment, and she had enough savings to cover it.


    When she was done, she nced at the jewelry she''d bought.


    She was contemting selling them when her phone suddenly chimed with a new text. It was from a wealthy woman in upper-crust society who imed to be interested in Jessica''s jewelry. She even offered to take them off Jessica''s hands at a higher price.


    Jessica had bought the jewelry to resell them, to begin with. She did not hesitate


    to make the sale. Her uneasiness vanished after she saw the moneye in.


    In the past, she had behaved like a money-grubber because she hadn''te from wealth. It was why she had thrown herself at men who were willing to spend on her.


    However, things were different now. Jessica had learned to make a living and cut her spending to


    amodate her workload.


    things were, her only expenses were her driver and caretaker, the fees of which totaled 50 or 60 thousand a month.


    Her profits alone could cover the costs of hiring help, to say nothing of the millions of dors she made each month. With the designer. collectibles she wasunching soon, she would soon be looking at


    hundreds of millions in profit.


    1.n


    That was more than enough money to sustain herself and her son. The thought


    prompted her to dial Casper''s number. "Are you free now?"


    "Yes," Casper answered, his voice softening. "What''s up?"


    "Let''s meet up in a while," Jessica said slowly. "I''d like to talk to you."


    "All right."


    Having heard Casper''s response, Jessica pocketed her phone and got ready to leave. But at that moment, she got a call from Casper''s parents.


    She put the call through and asked coldly, "What is it?"
