Chapter 1364
Keegan understood what Carter meant and said, “I’ll call you back later.”
After the call ended, Lena looked at Carter and asked, “What is it about?”
“Nothing much. He just wants to have a drink with me because it’s been a while since we met.”
“Go ahead then. I’ll get something to eat around here and get a cab back myself,” Lena said.
“No way.” Carter immediately rejected her suggestion. “I’ll stay with you for a while first.”
Lena felt helpless. There was nothing she could do to change how clingy Carter was, but she kind of liked it too.
Carter leaned in and kissed her on the lips. “Lena, why don’t you switch to another less demanding position? You’ve been working overtime so frequently; it isn’t good for your health. Look, you’ve lost weight again.”
Lena lowered her gaze and said, “This is my field of expertise. What else can I do other than this?”
“You could work in the management department. It’s less tiring.”
In that way, not only that Lena would not have to put herself in danger on the front lines, but it was also the easiest path to get a promotion.
It would probably be difficult for Lena to make the switch with her own capabilities, but Carter had all the connections. It would be effortless for him to help her with it.
However, Lena did not want that as she said in a low voice,” The management role will need me to interact with living people, and I’m only good at dealing with the dead. I’m not very good with words. It’ll be hard for me to deal with so many different people, let alone using official terms to handle the media.”
She paused before asking softly, “Is it because your parents want me to switch careers?”
“No.” Carter brushed her hair that fell on her cheek to the back of her ear and said, “I just don’t want you to drain yourself. It was just a suggestion. I’ll support you no matter what others say if you want to work in this field.”
Lena’s chilly gaze softened as she hugged Carter and gently kissed him.
“If we have children in the future, and the job is still as busy as now, I’ll consider switching to management.”
