Lost Me, Gained Regret (Jane and Bryant Ferguson) novel Chapter 284

Christine and I circled the thought but couldn't figure out who would do such a good deed.

"Forget it, let's not dwell on it. Opening the doors for business and getting orders is all that matters."

Christine was the optimistic one, stretching languidly as she spoke, "We've got someone coming in for an interview soon. You ready to join me?"

"Sure thing," I agreed without hesitation.

Starting up a new company was a Herculean task with just Christine and me on board. No matter how we stretched the hours, there was always more to be done.

Hiring was top of the agenda.

During the interviews, Christine took the lead with the questions while I played the silent observer, only to confer with her later for the final decision.

From time to time, she glanced my way, her eyes gleaming with an earnest brightness.

Christine, amused, asked her, "Do you recognize Ms. Webster here, or do you just find her too stunning?"

"Ms. Webster..." She laughed shyly, then cautiously asked, "Have you ever been to one of Eason’s concerts?"

That question triggered my memory instantly!

A smile curled up on my lips, "So it's you!"

The girl who had waited with me outside the concert.

She sprang up, her eyes curving into crescents, nodding vigorously, "Yes, yes, yes, it's me!"

"What's this...?" Christine raised an eyebrow in curiosity, "Where did you find this adorable girl?"

Before I could explain, Molly eagerly shared with Christine, "It was at the last Eason’s concert. I didn't have a ticket, and she and her friend gave me their spare ones!"
