Falling For My Mysterious Wife by Cassidy Alfaro novel Chapter 125

Chapter 125

It was six o’clock, the time to get off work.

Elaina was packing up her things, ready to leave the hospital. To her surprise, Jalen called her.

“Mr. Halton, how may I help you?” she asked casually as she packed her things.

“How is Mr. Becker?” Jalen asked. His tone was indifferent, as if he was her boss, asking about her work progress.

Elaina said truthfully, “He is doing fine and should be out of the hospital in a few days.”

It was the fact that Jalen was now a major shareholder of Northwestern Memorial Hospital. It could be said that he was Elaina’s boss. It was only right that she reported her work to him. properly.

Jalen said “OK” and then fell silent, which made Elaina a little confused.

It was about time to go to dinner with Jaydon. So, she had no choice but to ask, “Anything else, Mr. Halton?”

“Are you free tonight? I want to treat you to a meal,” Jalen said. Then he hurriedly said, “Grandpa wants to see you.

What else could he say? He knew Elaina would turn him down if he asked her out for a meal alone.

He had to use Nitzan as an excuse.

Elaina frowned and then said, “Maybe not tonight. I’ll go to the old mansion to eat with Mr. Halton some other day.”

“You are occupied tonight?” Jalen asked, a little disappointed.

Graham told him that under circumstances like this, he should be nice to Elaina since it was the only way to stop her from being dissatisfied with him. Therefore, he mustered up his courage to call Elaina. But she…

“Yes.” For some reason, she felt a little guilty.

She thought, I have an early dinner appointment. That makes me occupied… right?

“I see.” Jalen hung up the phone. He was disappointed for sure, but he could handle it. After all, he still had plenty of time.

Just as Elaina finished her call with Jalen, Jaydon showed up at her office door. “Are you done?”

“Pretty much. Let’s go.” Elaina took her bag and left the hospital with Jaydon.

They weren’t being secretive, and the fact that they came and went together made everyone in the hospital envious.
