Jasper’s eyes were wide open. He took the contract and went out first.
Before going out, he took a quick blink at Emmett.
Emmett closed his eyes as a response to Jasper.
At that time, Juliana still didn’t realize that she had missed a few important data statements on the
contract.
“Emmett Smith, no matter what, if I want a man, I will definitely get him!”
Juliana howled.
Emmett stood up slowly, “Oh really? We shall see about that. I’m leaving soon; do you still want to stay
in my office?”
Juliana pulled a face at Emmett, “Hmph! Like I care to even stay here!”
Juliana jumped off the car and walked out of his office angrily. After walking a few steps, she turned
back to grab her bag and walked out again.
Emmett sneered and began to change his clothes.
Just now, Juliana pulled him on bed and even sat on his waist. He felt extremely dirty, so he changed
his clothes!
Emmett wore a new outfit, covered his eyes with a pair of large sunglasses and got into the luxury car
that was waiting for him.
Kayden, who was sitting on the front passenger seat, turned his face around and said, “Young master,
I’m back here after Master Young sent Ms. Jones to the training class this morning.”
“Alright, got it.” Emmett was expressionless.
“Also, young master, I’ve received a call saying that Ms. Juliana had gone to your father’s house.”
“What! Shit! This annoying woman!”
Emmett immediately took off his sunglasses as soon as he heard Kayden’s words, revealing his
charming facial features. But then, he wrinkled his handsome face as he felt awfully annoyed.
...
“How dare she use my old man to pressure me? Did she really think that my old man would point a gun
at me and forced me into the bridal chamber?”
Kayden advised him, “Well, Master has always been fond of arranged marriage.”
“Fond of? Is he the one who’s getting married? Really, this old man is getting sillier!”
Emmett leaned back vigorously towards the seat. He narrowed his eyes, looked out of the window and
began to think about it.
To his expectation, Emmett received a call from his father Atwood Smith half an hour later.
He looked on the screen display of his phone and frowned immediately.
He stretched out his hand and asked the subordinates who were standing behind him to wait. After
that, he quickly walked to the other side.
The call was connected, “Dad? I’m out for on-site inspection. If you have anything to say, please make
it quick.”
“Emmett, Ms. Juliana is visiting me now. Do come back home for lunch this afternoon.”
“I...”
“That’s all. I’ll talk to you later.”
Beep!
Without saying much, Atwood Smith was very decisive.
“This annoying woman! It’s you again!”
Emmett gritted his teeth. He scolded a few words in anger while stamping his feet. Then, he composed
himself, put his phone back and pretended that nothing had happened. He went back to continue
checking the scene.
By then, it was noontime. He said to Kayden, “Forget it, cancel the reservation at the restaurant and
return to my dad’s residence now.”
“What?” Kayden was slightly surprised, but he didn’t say anything more and nodded, “Alright, noted.”
On the way back, Emmett said that he actually wanted to invite Elaine and Hazel to have lunch
together this afternoon. He even made a reservation at Soochow Restaurant. He didn’t expect that
Juliana would mess things up again.
He shouldn’t have underestimated Juliana. She actually got his father to help her out.
Kayden quietly stared at his young master’s gloomy face along the way.
When Elaine and Hazel ended their class, Oliver and Lucas had already left.
...
They had accompanied the ladies for two hours. As the head of the two big companies, it was indeed a
rare and precious moment.
Lucas happened to have a project starting today, so he had to rush back immediately.
The board of directors of Oliver’s company urged him back to attend too.
The two men who didn’t want to leave had no choice but to rush back to carry out their respective
duties.
“Oh, Lucas is such a outrageous man. He should at least invite me for lunch this afternoon.”
Hazel looked outside the conference hall and felt a little disappointed.
It wasn’t a big deal for Elaine, so she said, “Why should he treat you lunch? Wasn’t you the one who
took advantage of him last night?”
Hazel smiled pleasantly, “You know nothing! He’s a man, he wouldn’t lose anything anyway. In fact, he
must have enjoyed himself!”
“What about you?”
“Me? Of course, I felt extremely pleasurable. Hahaha, since I was the one who bullied him.”
Elaine was speechless.
She couldn’t have a proper conversation with a nympho like Hazel anymore.
The two good friends walked together and were discussing on where to have their lunch. Then,
Elaine’s phone rang.
Elaine took out her phone. As soon as she connected the call, she heard a gentle voice, “Elaine, where
are you at now?”
“Huh? I...”
Elaine was shocked to hear him.
Hazel frowned and asked quietly, “Who is it?”
Elaine immediately covered her phone and trembled in excitement. She whispered, “It’s my senior!
Mark!”
She was thrilled when she heard Mark’s voice.
Hazel rolled her eyes. Why the fuss? She got so excited when she received a call from Mark.
“Answer his call properly then. What are you afraid of? So embarrassing.”
Elaine immediately took a deep breath and grabbed her phone. She smiled and said happily, “Heh heh,
Mark, is that you?”
“Yeah. Elaine, where are you now? If you’re free, shall we have lunch together?”
...
Elaine was about to faint.
What had she heard!
Oh god! Mark was going to invite her to have a meal together again!
Wasn’t this a good sign?
“Well, okay! Or shall I treat you instead?
“Haha, let me treat you this time. I’m at the Korean barbecue restaurant of ** street. Could you take a
cab here?”
“Okay! I’ll be there soon!”
Elaine nodded her head excitedly.
Hazel stared at Elaine, “This useless woman! Good-for-nothing!”
“Alright. Take your time, Elaine. Be careful on your way here.”
“Heh heh, okay. Thank you, Mark.”
“Well, see you later.”
“See... see you... later...”
Elaine almost bit off her tongue. Although she had hung up the call, her eyes were still staring on her
phone screen.
Oh god, she was really excited!
Her senior invited her to have a meal together again! So exciting!
“Hey!” Hazel vigorously bumped against Elaine and she was brought back to reality, “It’s just a meal,
what are you getting so excited for! Where are we eating at? Hurry up!”
“Huh?” Elaine looked at Hazel who was walking towards the roadside and howling at her, “What?
You’re going too?”
“Of course! Are you really going to dump me here just so you can have a meal with your senior? Can’t I
join you? Do you think I will eat till he’s broke? Damn it! Get in the car quickly!” Hazel had already
hailed a cab, sat inside and waved at Elaine as a sign for her to get in.
“But... it’s not easy for me to have a date with Mark... You can’t be this cruel... Such a big light bulb...”
“Shut up. Hurry up and tell the driver where we’re heading to!”
When the two of them walked into the barbecue restaurant together, Elaine was still complaining about
how Hazel only cared about eating and if she couldn’t get married, it was all Hazel’s fault.
When Mark saw Elaine and Hazel, he stood up and smiled gently.
...
“Oh, you’re with Elaine too. Elaine didn’t mention it just now.”
Hazel gave Elaine a death stare and said in her heart, “Well, my friend here forgot about me for the
sake of a man and wanted to kick me 800 meters away.” But, she quickly gave Mark a bright smile,
“Haha... Mark, you know we have a genuine friendship. We can’t leave each other alone. I’m not
bothering your time with Elaine right?”
Mark stunned and his face turned a little red, “No worries, we’re all classmates. There’s no such thing
as bother. Come, have a seat here.”
Elaine blushed. Her eyes didn’t know where to look and shyly sat next to Hazel.
“Sorry to have let you pay the bill again, Mark.”
Elaine took a glance at Mark’s handsome face and said timidly.
Mark smiled, “It’s okay. If you feel sorry, just treat me a few meals in the future. Heh heh.”
Elaine stunned for a moment. She giggled at his words even when she didn’t know what to say.
The corner of Hazel’s lips twitched.
Wow! I didn’t think Mark would know how to work a lady. He was undoubtedly sweet.
Looking at Mark’s attitude... perhaps... he really liked Elaine?
Well, every dog had its day. Who would have thought that Mark would like her?
Elaine was really lucky in love affairs this year.
Mark took on the main task of barbecue and constantly refilled the ladies’ bowls.
Elaine wasn’t able to enjoy her lunch. She felt restrained as she kept hesitating to eat and drink.
She had never been so nervous around Emmett. Whenever they had a meal together, she lost control
over what and how much she ate.
Today, she felt extremely nervous in front of Mark. She was afraid that eating too much would affect her
image.
Meanwhile, Haze enjoyed the barbecue very much.
“Elaine, which college are you applying to as your prior choice?”
Mark looked at Elaine tentatively.
