Abandoned by All I Took It All Back novel Chapter 162

Jesse scratched his head. "Pulled an all-nighter. I'll go home, do some laundry, and then catch up on sleep."

Lynn paused again, her fingers tapping on the keyboard. She said casually, "Just throw your clothes in the washing machine. Or at the very least, have your wife help out, or wash them after you wake up."

Jesse suddenly laughed. "I don't even have a girlfriend, let alone a wife." He pulled up a chair and sat across from Lynn. "The apartment I'm renting doesn't have a washing machine. Besides, I think washing by hand gets them cleaner than a machine."

Lynn fell silent. Honestly, Jesse looked like he was in his mid-thirties; she'd assumed he had kids old enough to run errands. She was surprised he wasn't even married. And a man who did his own laundry by hand? Definitely a plus.

That's when Lynn learned that Jesse was actually only 25; he just looked older than his age.

Seeing Lynn's silence, Jesse smiled and asked, "Does Assistant Wallace have a boyfriend?"

"Huh? Yes, I have a boyfriend…" Lynn lied. She didn't even know why she'd said it. Maybe she subconsciously sensed a deeper meaning in his question. Looks were important to her, and Jesse just wasn't her type.

"Oh, well, I guess I'll have to work harder then. I'll get in line," Jesse said suddenly.

Lynn's hands paused on the keyboard. She looked up, stunned. "What… what do you mean?"

"I'm going to pursue you," he said, his tone serious.

Lynn immediately made an 'X' with her hands and rejected him flatly. "I have a boyfriend. And besides, you're not my type."
