Waylon quickly changed into slippers. After which, Doris also bent down to start changing hers.
But then her phone rang in her bag.
Doris, still holding one slipper, took out her phone and saw that it was her sister calling.
It seemed her sister was worried and called to check on her.
Doris hastily swiped to answer.
On the other end, her sister’s voice came mixed in with some background noise, “Doris, have you reached home yet?”
“Yeah, I just got home, Jennie! Why aren’t you asleep yet?” Doris replied.
“How can I sleep before making sure you’re back home safely?”
“I was just about to tell you. I’m already in the midst of changing my shoes.”
Doris put on the other slipper and walked forward. Her sister continued speaking on the other end, “Doris, I want you to listen carefully”
“Yes, I’m listening. What’s the matter?”
“You should try and build a relationship with Mr. Waylon. If you miss this opportunity, you’ll regret it!”
Doris happened to walk behind Waylon as Jennie said this.
The hallway was very quiet, so her sister’s words came through clearly. Waylon immediately stopped in his tracks and turned around.
Doris was dumbfounded, clutching her phone and stuttering, “Jennie, what are you saying?! Just go to sleep!”
“I’m telling you, Doris…”
Beep beep beep~ The call ended.
Doris blushed, stammering, “Mr. Waylon, it’s not what you heard. My sister was just drunk.”
“In wine, there is truth.” Waylon said indifferently.
Even when drunk, Jennie still knew that missing an opportunity to be with him was a regret that would last a lifetime.
He was the one and only Waylon Adelmar, after all.
Any woman would go from rags to riches overnight just by being together with him.
