Ambush of the Quadruplets novel Chapter 159

Chapter 159 I’ll Go Out With You

“Janie,” Emmeline quickly informed Janie, “the Struyria Banquet, five o’clock.”

Janie’s excitement was palpable as she exclaimed, “Wow, Emma! You actually manage to ask Mr. Benjamin out? How did you do it? And what’s your relationship with him? You must be someone special, right?”

“You’re asking a lot of questions!” Emmeline replied, “I’m just a coffee seller who works part-time as a stunt double.”

Janie pouted at the other end of the line and said, “Emma, I’m sorry for what I said to you the other day. Please don’t take it to heart. I was too ignorant.”

Emmeline replied, “What are you talking about, Janie? I’m not some mysterious person. Anyway, let’s not waste time, put on your makeup and change your clothes before it’s too late!”

Janie checked her watch. It was now three o’clock. If she hurriedly changed her clothes, she’d still have time to go to the beauty club and get her makeup done.

Janie grabbed her bag and hastened toward the office, but she ended up colliding with Benjamin in an abrupt encounter.

“Janie?” Benjamin inquired, “It’s still working hours. Where are you rushing off to?”

Janie’s face had become bright red as she said, “I…”

I have a date with you?

However, voicing those words was not an option for her. If she confessed that she was the one who had initiated the date, Mr. Benjamin would most likely refuse to go out with her.

“I have an emergency, Mr. Benjamin. I took the rest of the day off.”

Benjamin nodded and replied, “Oh, I see. I also have something to attend to. Feel free to take my elevator if you’re in a rush.”

“Thank you, Mr. Benjamin. Thank you very much!” Janie bowed quickly.

Benjamin’s remarkable appearance was reflected in the mirror as the two stepped into the CEO’s private elevator.

Janie’s heart fluttered at the thought of having dinner with him later.

Emmeline, you’re definitely my lucky star!

Benjamin drove to the café to pick Emmeline up in his car.

However, upon his arrival, Sam informed him, “Ms. Louise had left quite some time ago.”

Upon hearing this, Benjamin’s initial thought was that Emmeline intentionally avoided him.

What is her reason for avoiding him?

In all actuality, she was afraid he’d coax the truth out of her on the way there and then change his mind about attending the dinner.

Benjamin smiled to himself, thinking that even Emmeline, despite being a grown woman, still retained her childlike innocence.

In the end, Benjamin drove to the Struyria Banquet all by himself.

To ease the tense atmosphere, Emmeline had opted not to book a private room and reserved a dining hall table behind a marble pillar carved with dragon designs.

Upon catching sight of Emmeline’s WhatsApp message, which contained only the phrase “Table 52,” Benjamin’s eyes alighted upon the scene before him, where a diminutive yet vivacious figure waited.
