Ex-husband’s Regret (Ryan and Charlotte) novel Chapter 289

apter 289 

I was extremely puzzled. 

If it wasn’t him, then who sent them? 

The RF Group is only something we’ve had dealings with through him… 

While I was contemplating this, lan’s voice on the phone suddenly brightened with realization. “Oh, yes, yes, yes, I remember now! It was me! I had my assistant order them. He must have made a mistake; I only intended for him to order 99, to wish your company great success and longevity.” 

Ian sounded somewhat apologetic. “999 is indeed a bit excessive. Did it cause you any trouble?” 

“Oh…” 

Looking at the flower baskets piling up from the elevator into the company, I smiled with a bit of a headache. “It’s not really a trouble… I’ll see if I can negotiate with the florist to return some of them. Otherwise, it costs too much.” 

“No need, no need. He can afford that,” lan blurted out. Then cleared his throat and added, “My assistant is just here for something to do. He’s quite wealthy. I’ll deduct this from his bonus.” 

“Alright.” I thanked him again, exchanged a few pleasantries, and ended the call. Jane leaned over and asked, “What’s going on? Did he really send them?” 

“Yes.” I smiled lightly. “It was just a mistake by his assistant. 99 was sent as 999,” Jack frowned thoughtfully. “How could such a mistake happen?” 

“Oh, don’t worry about it. It’s not every day you get flowers. Isn’t it a good thing?” 

Jane, who loved flowers, was beaming with joy as the arrangements kept coming in. “I have to take a photo and post it on social media. With this kind of momentum, our company is sure to flourish.” 

“Go ahead and post it.” I signed the receipt from the florist. 

Jane then suggested, “By the way, Charlotte, how about a company dinner tonight? To celebrate the grand opening and also welcome the new team members.” 

“Sounds good. I was thinking the same thing.” 

We were on the same page about this. I looked at Jack and cheerfully invited him, “Jack, do you have time tonight to join us?” 

He was distracted, looking at the heaps of flower baskets, but upon hearing my invitation, he smiled warmly. “Since you’ve asked, of course, I have time.” 

I smiled. “I’ll send you the details once the time and location are set.” 

“Alright.” Jack glanced at the time. “I’ll head back to the office first.” 

After seeing him off, Jane followed me into my office and sat opposite me with a teasing expression. 

“Come clean, what stage are you and Jack at now?”
