It was Lynn. She always lingered around him. Every time he blocked a number, she would come back with another one. Jackson had begun to think about changing his own number. However, he thought about it deeper. He had not been able to confirm whether Alejandro was actually Ethan or not. Could Lynn be of use since she was working under Alejandro?
The thought did cross Jackson’s mind a while ago, but he did not execute the plan since it may get others involved unnecessarily. Now that Lynn had said that she no longer wanted to work for Alejandro, he began to hesitate a little. What if it was true? He and Lynn went way back. They just weren’t able to develop their relationship to the extent that others might have imagined.
As he thought of this, he swiftly replied to her message. ‘Will contact you at three in the afternoon.’
After finishing lunch with Tiffany, he sent her back to the office to have an afternoon nap. He kept looking at his watch for the time, and as Tiffany began to fall asleep, he whispered, “Have a good rest. I need to head out at three in the afternoon. I’ll be back soon. Let’s go for a nice dinner when I get back.”
Tiffany said drowsily, “Alright, get going. Don’t bother my sleep…”
Jackson composed himself as he relaxedly put on his jacket and left the company, calling Lynn the moment he got into the car. “Come to the cafe by the East Lane.”
The cafe was a public area and it wasn’t noisy, but there were quite a number of customers. It was just the right place to meet Lynn, as he still had to keep his guard up around her.
After he arrived and sat in the cafe, Lynn arrived soon after. She had always loved simple and dark colors; hence, she was clad in black all the way from her hair down to her dress. Combined with her calm demeanor, it looked quite intimidating.
“Are you afraid that Tiffany might find out that you’re here to meet me? Is that why you’ve chosen a remote area as our meeting spot?” asked Lynn, half jokingly.
