Cosset You Forever novel Chapter 868

Janet just wanted to walk around freely when she was in a bad mood; she didn't want to be recognized by people everywhere she went.

When she heard Daniel's name, Shirley, with a gleam shining in her eyes, asked Janet, "Are Daniel and you... really..."

It was quite clear what she had meant. Janet was a bit depressed, and replied, "No. I have nothing to do with him."

She thought that at most, he was just a friend who had slept with her!

When she heard her, Shirley seemed to feel more relieved. "Oh, I see. Well, you need to get down to work now, and I also have to check the sanitation first."

Janet waved at her and entered the back room.

The whole morning, Janet kept making Tiramisu, one after another, and she was silent, and looked very morose.

Of course, not one of the salesclerks dared to ask her what had happened to her. Shirley wanted to ask her, but when she saw that Janet was so concentrated on her work, she finally gave up on the idea.

She had to tell the salesclerks to recommend the Tiramisu to their customers.

At noon

Shirley said to Janet who kept making Tiramisu this morning: "It's time for lunch now. Would you like to have lunch with me?"

"I'll have lunch later, you can go first!" replied Janet. She didn't even look up when she spoke with her and just went on working.

It was obvious that Janet was very sad; she didn't even talk as much as she used to in the morning. Shirley wanted to cheer her up, but she had no idea how.

"Would you like me to bring you a cup of milky tea?" asked Shirley. The Grand Slam was Janet's favourite milky tea.

"Yes, that would be nice. Thanks!" said Janet. Yes! This time, Janet didn't refuse her.

Shirley slightly smiled at her, and said, "Please wait a sec."

When she got out of the shop, she saw that a red Cayenne was parked at the curb nearby. Since it was a luxury car, Shirley kept looking at it for the moment.

A man got out of the driver's seat and quickly walked up to Shirley, and said, "Hello, Miss Zheng. Is Miss Shao in the shop?"

After looking at the man in front of her, Shirley began to glance at the Cayenne's backseat windows, but she couldn't see anything through.

"Miss Zheng?" said Spark. He was confused, and looked at Shirley who was lost in thought.

Shirley, who had heard Spark call her name, now realised that someone was talking to her, and nodded. "Yes. She's in the shop," she replied.

"Would you please help me and ask her to come here?" asked Spark. On his way there, Daniel had called Janet for several times, but had found that her phone was powered off.

He didn't know where she was, so he had to go in front of her shop and look for her. And indeed, she was there.

After she learned that the man was looking for Janet, Shirley felt a little frustrated, and replied, "OK. Just a moment, please."

She came back to the shop and entered the back room. "Janet, someone is waiting for you outside," she said.

'Janet told me earlier that Daniel had nothing to do with her. But he was looking for her outside just now... Why did Janet lie to me?' thought Shirley.

"Who?" asked Janet. She looked back at Shirley.

"He seemed to be... Mr. Si's special assistant," replied Shirley. When she heard Shirley, Janet, who was busy making Tiramisu shapes, suddenly stopped working.

Then, she just sat there, motionless.

After a while, Janet said to Shirley, "Tell him that I'm not here."

"But... I've already told him that you're here," replied Shirley.

"... Well, tell him that I'm busy right now and that I'm not available to see him!" said Janet. Janet felt a bit sad, and went on making her desserts with her head down.

After she looked at Janet's back and kept silent for a while, Shirley turned around and walked out of the back room.

Spark was still waiting outside of the shop, and the Cayenne had already attracted a lot of attention.

When Shirley told Spark what Janet had said, Spark, whose smile then slightly froze on his face, said, "OK. Thank you, Miss Zheng."

He then got back inside the car.
