"Vince!"

Timothy's voice was sharp, laced with anger as he called out the name.

Vince just sneered. "Perfect. Now you know exactly how I feel. Why is it that you think you can treat others like this, but can't handle it when the tables are turned? Timothy, you never cease to disappoint me."

Timothy realized Vince wouldn't tell him anything, so he hung up the call.

Just then, his secretary, Allen, reminded him quietly, "Mr. Lawson, it's Christmas Eve."

Lately, Timothy had been racking his brain for ways to win back his wife's heart.

A holiday like this was too important for him to let slip by.

"I know. You can leave now," Timothy said, waving Allen out.

He wanted to take Jessica and Henry out for a family dinner tonight, but he was certain she'd refuse if he asked.

Timothy gathered the documents in his hands and returned to The Gilded Whisper Estates.

Jessica usually kept to the master bedroom, rarely venturing out. He went straight to her door and knocked.

Since Timothy was often away, Jessica assumed it was Mabel and opened the door. The moment she saw Timothy, she tried to close it, but he wedged himself inside.

"I have something for you," he said.

At least she didn't shoot him a cold glare.

Once inside, Timothy handed her the file.
