Husband you've abandoned me Fine I'll focus on raising my son novel Chapter 245

Chapter 245: Leigh-Anne Sommers

"Your last assistant, Jasmine Acland, was your lover, wasn’t she?" My father asked. "I’m sure that little dalliance was quite fun for you, but you have to get serious soon. You’re 23, turning 24 soon, and you have to start thinking about marriage."

My lips then pressed into a thin line, feeling uncomfortable with his line of questioning. He still didn’t take my relationship with Jasmine seriously. I wasn’t giving up on her yet.

It’s clear my father was playing matchmaker and wanted me to have something with her...and marriage at that.

"Anyway, I’m sure as you get over Chairman Acland’s wife, you’ll come to your senses," he told me.

After a few minutes, Leigh-Anne returned to the office with the remaining folders and placed them on the desk.

"Alright, fantastic," my father said as she placed the folders on the table. "Now, Miss Sommers will help you go through the documents and explain anything you don’t understand.

Leigh-Anne smiled warmly at me as my father explained.

"Remember not to be late to the meeting," he finished off and then left me in the office alone with Leigh-Anne.

After the door to the office was closed, I turned to Leigh-Anne, who was looking at me.

"I guess we’d better get started," I told her.

It then finally hit me why I found Leigh-Anne familiar. Leigh-Anne was the woman Jasmine had bumped into that day when we came here and were brought into the office.

Whatever my father planned to happen between Leigh-Anne and me was never going to happen. I don’t know what he’d told her either, but I wasn’t going to entertain anything. I would keep our relationship strictly professional.

The rest of the day, I began going through the documents with Leigh-Anne and learning about the Carrington HQ. My mind was also a bit distracted as thoughts of Jasmine filled it.

*************

The following day, as soon as I arrived at the office, I continued learning about the company and with Leigh-Anne.

I left for another meeting around midday. I was in a rush and just took since I was late.

"Miss Sommers, are you alright?" I asked upon re-entering the office.

"Yes, sir," she replied.

"I left my phone in here," I said as I went toward my desk.

"Ah, yes, you left it on your desk, sir," she told me.

I picked up the phone and immediately unlocked it and began scrolling through it.

I then noticed a phone call on my history call log and my eyes narrowed as I looked at it.

"I received a call whilst I was out and it It shows it was answered," I noted as I read through the log. There were two calls from this person one answered and one missed. She was the only one in my office while I was out so only she could have answered it.
