Save Myself From Desperation by Cara Agnes novel Chapter 295

Jessica thought for a while and continued, "Ms. Copley, you just said that the management of the headquarters will come for inspection. I wonder if I have a chance to meet the president of the Zenith Group."

The president of the Zenith Group was a person full of secrets. Few people had seen him.

If she could meet him while signing the contract today, she might build a relationship with him. The more connections she had, the better.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Ramos. I'm merely a manager. It's out of my hands." Isabela declined her request and continued, "But I can report to my boss and give you a reply as soon as possible."

"Thank you." Jessica hung up the phone, waiting for Isabela's reply nervously.

The Zenith Group was an influential listed investment company worldwide, with its headquarters in Takydo and branches all over the world. Even the Kingsley Group and the Fox Group in Zyrrinthia used to work with the Zenith Group.

The president of the Zenith Group remained a mystery, and so was the biggest shareholder of the Zenith Group.

It was said that the Zenith Group had a financial crisis before and almost went bankrupt. With the timely investment and a proper development plan from this shareholder, the Zenith Group clawed back from its revenue losses.

Suffice it to say, that this mysterious shareholder was the real boss of the Zenith Group.

Jessica knew she wasn't qualified to meet the real boss of the Zenith Group. She would be very grateful if she could speak to the president of the headquarters of the Zenith Group.

When she was waiting for Isabela's call anxiously, she was startled by a sudden great sound. Her bedroom door was kicked open from the outside. Frankie, Jeremy, and Matthew stormed in.

"Brothers..."

Their angry faces frightened her.

Jessica showed them her puppy-dog eyes as she used to. However, the three of them didn't buy it anymore.

"Jessica!" Jeremy said in a stern tone, "From today on, you're not allowed to leave Ramos Villa and even your bedroom."

"What? Why?" Her eyes widened in disbelief. "Jeremy, you..."

"Shut up." Jeremy glared at her with wariness and contempt in his eyes. "You're not going to harm Ashley. Not on my watch!"

"I...I didn't do anything to harm Ashley. And I know nothing about Miranda's kidnapping. How would I know the kidnappers used her to threaten Ashley? I have nothing to do with it..." Her eyes turned red, filled with tears. "You have to trust me, Jeremy, Matthew."

"Really?" Matthew walked up to her and gently smoothed her messy hair.

Jessica smirked secretly when she saw Matthew's gentle expression. Whining, she pushed her luck and continued, "Matthew, I swear I'm unaware of the kidnapping. And I never want to hurt Ashley. I..."

Before she finished speaking, Matthew changed his expression. He pulled her hair rudely with a sullen face.

She screamed, and her face twisted in pain. "It hurts! Matthew..."

Matthew stared at her with steely eyes and suddenly smiled, "Jessica, am I a fool or what? Because of you, I had been so mean to Ashley. From now on, you have to go through what Ashley suffered."

"I..." She looked at Matthew in horror, and her face turned pale.

Since he knew Ashley was Ash, Matthew had treated Jessica badly and had been moody. One minute, he smiled at Jessica, the next, he glared at her.

Among five brothers, Matthew was the one Jessica feared the most.

"Matthew, I...I'm also your sister."

"Sister?" He wouldn't let go of Jessica's hair, indifferently watching her sob. "Jessica, you make me sick. I'm telling you. Ashley is my only sister."

Jessica felt humiliated.

She bit her lower lip with hatred, thinking, 'I make him sick? Ashley is so fantastic, and I'm a zero. Is that what he means?'

At that point, Jeremy cut in. "Jessica, since Frankie came back, you don't have to go to the company anymore. He'll take charge of the Ramos Group again."
