After a busy day and it was time off work finally, Jackie carried her bag into the office. She stared at me and said, “Miss Kennedy, do you need me to follow you to dinner with Luis of Jo Turner Credit in the evening?”
I was lost in thought for a moment before I remembered this. Looking at her anxious expression, I shook my head and said, “No, just give me the address, I will go there myself!”
She smiled, “Thank you, Miss Kennedy, I’m sending you the address.”
I nodded my head and squinted at her with my chin in my hand, “Are you seeing someone special?”
Jackie was a grown-up and worked for me for two years, and she hadn't been in a relationship all this time and recently started dating?
“No, I had an appointment with an old classmate in the evening and had some time together, so…” She said, but her face was already getting red.
I nodded and said nothing more, just gestured for her to go ahead!
Affection just can’t be concealed, even you didn’t say it, people can tell from your eyes.
After sorting out my desk, I drove straight to the place Jackie told me. I originally thought that the boss of Jo Turner Credit would be a middle-aged man.
When I saw him in person, I froze for a moment, not expecting Luis to be a young child in his early twenties.
“Miss Kennedy?” As soon as he saw me, he stood up from his seat, looked at me and raised his eyebrows.
I gave him a polite smile, “Mr. Collins?”
“Just call me Luis.” Luis was a tall and handsome boy, and had two dimples on the cheeks when he smiling, which made him look cuter, but he got a pair of sapiential eyes.
He looked he really got something on him.
I walked to the table and sat down, while Luis looked at me with a cute smile on his face, “Clara, what would you like? I’ll help you call the waiter!”
He directly called my name.
“I'm not picky!” I responded, put the bag in my hand aside and looked up at him as he ordered.
After he ordered a few dishes, he casually gazed at me with his chin in his hand, “Clara, you look a lot better than I thought you would!”
I raised my eyebrows, “Is Jo Turner Credit your company?”
I thought he probably was about twenty-three years old, although Jo Turner Credit was not considered large, it must not bad for it can be selected by Dennis. I was surprised such a child can run a company all by himself.
He slumped on the table, feeling a bit bored, “Yeah, when I was bored in college I started Jo Turner Credit and find it was fun.” He then squinted at me with a tilted head and said, “Let's talk about something else, shall we?”
I nodded, “What do you want to talk about?”
He was suddenly intrigued, sat up straight and gazed at me, “Are you going to get a divorce with old Mr. George?”
I was stunned, “Old Mr. George?”
He then continued, “Dennis George is more than thirty years old, isn’t he an old man? You are only twenty-six, do you really intend to live with that old man for the rest of your life?”
I was stunned by his words for a while and did not know what to say, “You're interested in my personal life?”
Then Olivia beside Dennis. I retracted my gaze, tried to retrieve my hand. But he held me tightly and wouldn’t let go.
I twisted my eyebrows and said with some displeasure, “Let go of me!”
“How about watching a show before leaving?” When he said this, he pulled me back to the seat, and then pressed my shoulders. Then he watched Dennis and Olivia walk in with a smile on his face and said, “Mr. George, what a coincidence! Please join us!”
I got a bit irritating and said coldly, “What do you want?”
“A show!” He said and sat down next to me.
Dennis sunken his face and walked over with Olivia and sat down opposite us.
Olivia naturally saw me. With the last incident, at this time she did not continue to pretend, just coldly glowered at me, very unfriendly.
It’s good that Olivia didn’t pretend anymore. I did not bother to look at them, simply took out my phone.
Luis’s passionate voice came to my ears, “Mr. George, Miss Olivia, what can I get you two?”
I was amused by Luis. Didn’t he just call Dennis old Mr. George?
Dennis indifferently glanced at Luis, then turned to gaze at Olivia and said, “What would you like to eat?”
Look, he just can’t ignore Olivia, because it’s a habit imprinted in the bones.
Olivia responded with a “whatever” and then back to silence. Yet I was a little annoyed when Luis kept talking to me, and if he hadn't blocked my way out, I would have just walked away.
