Billionaire Husband Picks Me Home novel Chapter 50

"It is all right. I do not have many things. I can do it myself. Thank you for finding a house for me." She did not have anything else than a few clothes in the Jones family. Plus, she felt like she'd already troubled him to find a house for her and asked him to help her move. That was a bit much.

Joel saw her refusal and said. "All right, I'll send you the address. If you need my help, you can call me."

"I know, thank you." She nodded, but she did not want to bother him further.

"Is not it too perfunctory for you to thank me in that way?"

"Well, would you like me to buy you dinner?" Jane raised her eyebrows slightly, and she had to invite him to dinner.

"Let us go. Do not forget you owe me a meal." Joel shut up immediately. He had been waiting for her to say that.

Jane nodded helplessly. "Got it."

After work in the afternoon, Jeffery first went to pick up the car and waited for Jane. Thereupon he waited here and there, but no one came down. His face became a little ugly.

He made a phone call, but no one answered.

He had to ask Aldred about the situation.

A cold sweat stood on Aldred's brow. She said anxiously. "Mr. President, I have inquired about it. Miss. Carter took a leave of absence this afternoon and is not with the company."

Jeffery's face was black as ink. He said icily. "'Why did she ask for leave? I do not know. When did I give her leave?"

Aldred's face was stiff. "Well, Secretary Jane, if you want to ask for leave, you can authorise it directly with Human Resources."

Jeffery looked at him sharply and said. "In future you will need my permission to ask for leave."

"Yes, President."

After Jeffery went back, he saw Nanny Wu in the sitting room. She asked with a cold expression. "Where is she?"

Nanny Wu knew at once of whom he spoke. "Mr Jeffery, Miss Carter moved out this afternoon."

"What did you say?" Jeffery narrowed his eyes slightly. So she left this afternoon because she'd moved? Was she that anxious to move out of here?

Nanny Wu looked at Jeffery's ugly face and sighed in her heart. Actually, she liked Jane, too. But she could not prevent him from going.

"I know." Jeffery walked upstairs with a frown. After going upstairs, he immediately asked the assistant to find out where she had moved to.

Aldred had lately known that his president seemed to care much for Jane. She dared not hesitate any longer, and went at once to find out.

Ten minutes later, Aldred sent the address she had found to Jeffery's phone.

Jeffery drove straight out of the house. "Did that woman move out of his house without his permission? She's so bold, and she dares to hide from me."

By this time he had forgotten what Jane had told him several times.

Jeffery galloped all the way to Jane's neighborhood.

At this point Jane was sitting in the room in a daze. Hearing a knock at the door, she at last came to his senses.

She looked at the door and could not help but be puzzled.

Who would knock on his door so late at night?
