Jason Turner soon became disappointed and even slightly enraged. “Dad, didn’t you claim that you have a very close relationship with the Presgraves? Didn’t you promise to help me get a promotion? You must keep your word!”
“I’m doing everything I can for you! Easy. Let me handle it. When was the last time I let you down?” Gavin patted his son’s shoulder. Since his son had grown up in a single-parent household, Gavin was everything to him, which was why he handled all his son’s affairs well.
Now that Jason was still a manager of a small department in the Presgrave Group, he wished that he could inherit his father’s position to feel elated and proud of himself..
Consequently, he was soon overjoyed. “Okay, Dad, I’ll leave it to you. When I’m in your post, those who looked down on me won’t be able to laugh at me again.”
“Expect good news!” Gavin nodded. He would never fail his son. After the meeting that lasted for an afternoon, Jared left the conference room to walk to his room quickly.
“President Presgrave, about tonight’s social gathering-” “Just reject it,” he answered without even turning around.
Stanley inevitably smiled helplessly. I’m afraid there’s nothing else he cares about except Miss Reiss. Ellen enjoyed her quiet alone time. She dozed off, however, while reading a book on the sofa in front of the French window.
Jared was taken aback when he opened the door and entered the room. He noticed the setting sun shining on the sofa and Ellen was sound asleep with a book on her face. He squatted and gently removed the book to reveal Ellen’s adorable and sweet face. Her slightly apart rosy lips were appealing, so he kneeled to steal a kiss and did so repeatedly until she awoke from his kisses.
Finally, she opened her doe eyes, which were slightly glassy from the sleep. When she saw him, she smiled. “Is the meeting over?” Her long hair was draped behind her head as she sat up.
Anyone would wish to adore and pamper her forever because she resembled a fairy with a gentle and natural temperament. “Yes, it’s over. Come. I’ll take you to dinner.”
