President Jessop.
My brain was buzzing!
The next second I saw the man enter the box slowly.
He was in a matte grey suit. His hair seemed shorter than it was a few years ago.
His features didn’t change and his skin seemed a little darker.
At the moment when I saw him, my strong heart seemed to be torn open by an invisible hand.
Something was going to blow out!
“Hello, President Jessop. She’s the lead designer, Becky Jones.” David stood up and introduced me to
Sean.
Obviously, Sean had met other people before.
I quickly got up and said to Sean, “Hello, President Jessop.”
Sean looked coldly at my face and quickly looked away.
He said coldly, “hello.”
His voice was full of indifference.
His attitude to me hurt me.
What was I looking forward to?
Wasn’t that the best?
I told myself in my heart.
I suppressed my disappointment and smiled at Sean.
I didn’t sit until he sat down.
I hardly spoke at dinner. David asked Sean about the club.
Sean didn’t look at me.
It seemed that I didn’t exist.
At the end of the meal, I went to the bathroom alone and made up.
I thought everyone had left.
But as soon as I got out of the box, I saw Sean standing in the corridor with his back against the wall.
He was talking to a middle-aged man.
When he saw me coming out, he waved at the middle-aged man.
He stood up straight and looked at me and said, “Miss Jones, let me drive you back to the hotel.”
“Ah?”
I was stunned.
My mouth was open and I had no idea what he meant.
He didn’t talk to me in the box just now, but now he said he wanted to drive me.
Did he recognize me?
It was impossible!
I quickly dismissed my speculation.
Even Inez couldn’t recognize my face.
Sean was expressionless and not surprised. He explained lightly, “don’t get me wrong. I just want to
ask about Mr. Moore.”
With that, he turned and walked out.
I was relieved but I was a little disappointed.
I smiled and said, “thank you, President Jessop.”
I walked fast and followed him.
We hadn’t seen each other for five years. Sean was now driving a sapphire Bentley SUV.
I was on the copilot.
He pulled out of the parking lot and asked me, “are you Murray’s Apprentice?”
“Yes.”
“Is Mr. Moore healthy recently?”
“Yes.”
Sean heard my answer and squinted at me. He seemed a little unhappy and said, “do you say only one
word at a time?”
I was stunned by his words.
When I talked to Sean, I was under a lot of pressure. I was afraid I said something wrong and let him
find out who I was.
Maybe I would make it easier for him to find out.
I quickly replied again, “no, my master is in good health.”
The hotel was very close to the restaurant.
Sean’s car stopped at an intersection. I could see the hotel.
“President Jessop, I can get off here.”
I said quickly.
I didn’t want to stay with him.
“I’ll take you to the door.” Sean said.
His tone was bland but domineering.
I took back my hand, which had been put on the doorknob.
I sat in the car.
He turned and looked at me and asked, “when are you going back? I’m going to see Mr. Moore.”
Was he going back with me?
How could I go back with him?
I took my bag and thought for a while before I said, “President Jessop, I am the main designer of this
project, so I will not return to sceaux in the near future. How about I send you the address of the
studio?”
“No.”
He turned me down.
I looked at him in surprise. I didn’t know what he meant and I could only smile.
Sean looked at me. His face was expressionless but his deep eyes were fixed on me. It was like he
was doing a laser scan for me.
My smile was getting stiff.
The green light was on.
Sean stepped on the gas and drove to the door of the hotel.
“Thank you, President Jessop.”
I got out of the car quickly.
Suddenly I was hit by a young couple passing by.
I didn’t pay attention and threw my bag out.
“Don’t you have eyes?” The girl gave me a look.
The man put his arm around her and kissed her face. “Leave her alone. She dresses as if she are
frigid. It must have been a long time since a man touched her.”
“Ha ha, I think so. No one is dressed like this now. Is she on TV?”
The woman laughed.
I picked up my bag and wanted to argue with them and ask them to apologize to me. A tall figure
passed me first.
He went straight to the couple and ordered them. “Apologize to her.”
The couple didn’t seem to expect Sean to show up. They were very disdainful.
The boy said, “who are you? Are you going to save this aunt?”
The name was ironic.
I was only 30 this year. Why was I an aunt?
Sean didn’t answer him and just went on, “apologize.”
The boy looked at Sean. Although he felt Sean was terrible, his girlfriend was beside him so he couldn’t
flinch.
He said, “I will not apologize!” Then he reached straight up and grabbed Sean’s collar. “Are you going
to hit me?”
“Bang!”
Before he finished, Sean punched him in the face!
“How dare you fucking hit me? Do you know who I am?” The boy didn’t expect Sean to hit him. He
angrily reached out and wanted to fight back!
Sean dodged!
His girlfriend shouted, “Why are you not as flexible as an old man?”
“Shit, I’m going to kill you!”
The boy was stubborn and wanted to kick Sean directly!”
“Be careful!” I was nervous and looking at Sean and shouting!
He was looking at the boy. When I shouted, he looked at me and frowned.
The boy took the chance and kicked Sean on the waist!
