Chapter 334 Ginny Is In Trouble
+5 Bonus
Due to Alex’s earlier dominating act, Carmen was unable to look him in the eye even after they returned home that night. She would feel terrified whenever she glanced at him.
The scene in which he had forced Susan to her death earlier today kept replaying in her mind. It was both shocking and traumatizing.
Another reason for her fear was that Alex might not have any money now, but he was still a member of the Jefferson family. If there ever came a day when he decided to go back home to inherit his family assets, the Jennings family would be able to reach a higher social status as well.
All this culminated in Carmen being wary of offending Alex further.
That night, Heather dragged Alex back to their room to sleep. If it were not for his injuries, she would have insisted on them engaging in intimate activities.
As it was, she voluntarily cuddled close to him. Her voice was soft and gentle as she urged him to reconsider inheriting the Jefferson family assets.
In response, he told her he needed rest to recover from his injuries. That enraged her; she huffily moved over to sleep on her own side of the bed.
The next day, Alex brought Stanley to kindergarten before heading to work.
He had called Jack the day before was told that Shane had come to the office, but he did not make too big of a fuss. The only one who was affected was Jessica.
With the absence of his two secretaries, Alex felt a little bored.
Because Jessica had resigned and Ginny was on sick leave, he had no secretary for the time being.
Then again, he had been leaving most of the decision–making to Jack recently. There were very few things that required his personal input anymore.
Leaning back against the couch, he took out his phone to call Jessica.
“Are you awake yet? Let’s have morning tea together,” Alex asked with a smile.
On the other side of the phone, Jessica was ecstatic that Alex had actually called her.
“Sure! Give me an hour. Wait, no, half an hour!” Jessica hurriedly replied.
“Alright. I’ll wait for you at Amy’s Tea House.”
He heard from Jack that Jessica had resigned because Shane had been bothering her. His plan was to invite her out for morning tea as an apology. After that, he would also try to convince her to come back to work.
Although she had asked him to wait half an hour, he knew she would likely not arrive until one hour later,
After all, what woman would not pretty herself before leaving the house?
Alex headed to Jack’s office to pass the time. He asked Jack about the preparation of Galaxy Girls and how it was progressing. It turned out that things were going smoothly and that they would probably be able to set up advertiser bidding next week. Twenty days later, they would begin officially recording the program.

“I’m so sorry, Mr. Jefferson. I was caught in a traffic jam on the way here,” she apologized with a smile.
She was dressed beautifully today and every movement she made was graceful and alluring.
Plenty of gazes followed her wherever she went.
Alex smiled to show he did not mind her arriving late. He waited for her to sit down opposite him before he asked, “What would you like to drink?”
“Green tea, please.”
