My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna) novel Chapter 997

While I sat there, quiet and lost in thought, Linda left me to finish her work.

After ironing out the details for the Lancille Village project, we had to get to work on making plans a reality. So I had to be on site.

As I was tidying up the office, getting ready to leave, Naomi called, inviting me for dinner, but I delayed my answer.

Sebastian was standing at the door to my office. Figuring something had come up, I said to her, "Wait a minute!"

Looking at Sebastian I asked, "Mr. Milton, are you done for the day?"

He nodded and asked, "What are we having for dinner?"

If he hadn't reminded me, I would have forgotten about having to provide his meals for the day. I stared blankly for a few seconds, then remembered Naomi's dinner invitation.

"It's not decided yet. What would you like to eat?"

His eyes fell, as if disappointed. "Anything will do, it's time to get off work. Let's go!" "Alright, you go ahead and leave first. I still need to sort out a few things. I'll be out soon."

After he left, I picked up the phone again. "Naomi!" "Hmm, are you going to refuse my invitation?" Naomi asked through the phone.

I touched my forehead, slightly amused by her lack of common sense. Then I said, "Don't be crazy. This is such a great opportunity. Don't you want a chance with a highly desirable bachelor?"

"What do you mean?"

"It means that you have a very good chance now. I will send you Mr. Milton's address. You'll be cooking tonight and I'll be your wingman. So, why don't we have dinner at Mr. Milton's house tonight?"

When she understood my meaning, she immediately said happily, "Really? Arianna, you're my lucky star. Wait for me, I'll be right there!"

After hanging up the phone, I hurried out of the office and found Sebastian's car in the parking lot.

I waved away the lingering cigarette smoke in the car and coughed. I couldn't help asking, "Is there something on your mind?"
