Chapter 104 Kate Is Planning
As long as he agreed to eat with her, she would get the chance to glimpse his true face.
Alex’s voice was neutral as he stated politely, “There’s no need for that. You working hard is the biggest expression of gratitude you can give me.”
Not willing to give up just yet, she tried again, “Mr. Jefferson- ”
“That’s enough. If there’s nothing else, please leave. I need to get back to work.” He cut her off and waved his hand at her impatiently in an obvious gesture of dismissal.
She opened her mouth to say something more, but when she saw that he had sat down and was focusing on his documents again, she gave up.
Still, she gave it one last go. “Mr. Jefferson, could I at least get your contact number?”
“Do you have my driver’s number?” Alex raised his head to ask.
“Yes,”
“Then that’s good enough. Call him if there’s anything. He’ll pass on the message to me.”
He then paused before stating firmly, “Remember, don’t bother me unless something very important happens. I don’t like to be disturbed.”
At that point, Kate wondered if she should reveal her true identity and use cooperation as an excuse to get closer to him.
However, she put that idea out of her head as quickly as it appeared. The time was not yet right for her to reveal herself.
“Okay, Mr. Jefferson. I understand. I’ll be leaving now.”
After taking two steps forward, she turned back around to say, “Oh, right! Mr. Jefferson, my main reason. for coming here is to apply for a leave. My superior and President Sawyer are both not in, so I had no choice but to look for you instead.”
“Alright. You can stay home until your leg recovers.” Alex did not bother lifting his head as he spoke.
“Thank you, Mr. Jefferson.”
Alex Jefferson, I won’t give up so easily. You’re definitely no match for the might of the Jefferson family. Once they find you, you’re going to need the Sutton family’s power.
Confident in those thoughts, her lips witched into a smile.
The only regret she had now was that she still did not know what Alex looked like. If he were about as
– handsome as his driver, that would be enough.
