Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1514

“I’m Cory Jefferson.”

Carl did not tell her his true name. After all, he was not actually planning to collaborate with Joan. Moreover, it would do him no good to reveal his identity since he was scheming against her.

“Hello, Mr. Jefferson. Let’s get straight to business then,” Joan said solemnly.

“Ms. Joan, there’s no need for us to rush, right? What’s the point of life if we don’t enjoy it? So why don’t we try to know each other first?” Carl suggested.

A topic too solemn was not going to help him with his plan, so Carl was trying to liven up the atmosphere.

Joan was baffled, sensing something odd about Carl’s words.

Even if I want to enjoy life, I won’t be doing it with a stranger like you. Moreover, why should I share my private life with you?

Despite her displeasure, Joan maintained the polite smile on her face.

“Mr. Jefferson, I don’t think we’re that familiar with each other. It’ll be inappropriate for us to talk about personal matters, so let’s discuss the contract instead,” Joan rejected respectfully, hoping to change the topic.

“Let’s be honest, Ms. Watts. I’m very interested in you, but since you have a boyfriend, I know I don’t stand a chance. I just want to find out who’s the lucky guy who has such an amazing girlfriend like you,” Carl said with intentional nonchalance.

“How about this? Let’s make a deal. I’ll show you my girlfriend’s photo, and you’ll let me see who your boyfriend is.” As Carl spoke, he stood up and showed her his phone.

Perplexed by Carl’s series of actions, Joan rejected again, “That won’t be necessary, Mr. Jefferson. I’m not interested in your personal matters. If we’re not going to talk about work, I won’t be able to stay around anymore. I’ll be heading home then.”

With that said, Joan began rising to her feet, not wanting to waste any more of her time with Carl. If there really was anything important for them to discuss, they could just do it the next day.
