Three Years Forgotten, Why Go Crazy When I Say Goodbye? novel Chapter 211

"So, you get to have meetings, work, and grab meals with a face like that every single day?" Jade Yates couldn't help but marvel.

Willow Horgan was a bit sensitive to the word 'meals.' "It's not every day. Just once, yesterday afternoon."

But Jade wasn't listening anymore. Her mind was already busy scripting over a hundred different office romance scenarios for the two of them. "Having a boss like that is an absolute blessing. I am never complaining about your overtime ever again. Also, hurry up and finalize that divorce. Get it done. Well, even if the paperwork takes a while, you need to make your move. If you miss out on him, you will regret it for the rest of your life."

Willow figured her friend was just rambling nonsense again and brushed it off with a noncommittal hum. She took the initiative to introduce them. "Mr. Thorne, this is my friend, Jade Yates."

"Jade, this is the CEO of Merit Biotech, Silas Thorne."

"It's an honor, Mr. Thorne," Jade said, instantly offering her hand. "Willow mentions you all the time. I didn't expect you to be so gorgeous in person."

Silas took her hand with a gentlemanly grip. "Is that so? And what exactly does she say about me?"

Both Willow and Jade froze. It had just been a polite greeting; neither expected him to actually press for details.

Recovering quickly, Jade continued with a playful, half-serious tone. "Only good things, of course. She says you're incredibly handsome, highly capable, and brilliantly sharp. At Merit, you're the person she admires the most."

"Really?" Silas chuckled, shooting a glance at Willow, who immediately ducked her head. "That's the first time I'm hearing any of this."

Jade was absolutely captivated by his smile. She let out a light laugh. "She's just too shy to tell you to your face."

"Jade..." Willow was utterly mortified, discreetly tugging at her friend's sleeve.
