Chapter 45 Jeffery Was Getting Married
Jane found that Sarah seemed to be staring at her mouth. Suddenly, she remembered that her lips seemed to have been kissed swollen by someone. She was very embarrassed and immediately lowered her head. "I don't have a boyfriend, and I'll go out first."
Jane turned around and quickly left the office. When she came out, she happened to run into Tina. The documents fell to the floor. Jane hurriedly apologized. "I'm sorry, I'll pick it up for you."
"What's wrong with you? You're so reckless." Tina looked unhappy, but when she saw Jane's lips and her cheeks slightly blushed, she subconsciously looked out.
Mr. Jones's office.
She vaguely understood something, and her eyes, which were looking at Jane, also contained a hint of ingratiation.
"Jane, I'm not feeling well, but this contract will be sent to the partners this afternoon. Why don't you go and help me?" Tina handed the contract to Jane. Her impatience had disappeared. Jane didn't want to take it, but after thinking about it, she felt that it was better to take this opportunity to go out and hide. In case Sarah came out, and Jeffery would run out and look for her. She didn't know if she should go or not. She would feel bad once she saw him now.
She checked the time. It was almost noon. After sending the documents, she came back to work after the noon break. In the afternoon, Jeffery might have gone to the exhibition with Sarah. "Well, I'll go there for you. Send me the address later." Jane took the contract, packed it up, and set off immediately. On the way, she received a message address from Tina. It was not a company, but a hot spring center.
Now, the bosses would generally choose a KTV or club like this. Jane didn't find it strange. She just needed to send the contract and took a taxi to the destination.
When Jane arrived, there was a traffic jam on the road just now. It happened it was lunchtime. She entered the hot spring center and was led to a big private room by the receptionist. The boss of the cooperation party was the only one in the room and he arranged to set up a table full of dishes.
"Hello, Mr. Hoffman. I'm here to deliver the contract." Jane briefly explained the purpose of her visit and handed over the contract in the bag.
Mr. Hoffman did not take it. After taking a sip of wine, he looked at Jane for a while and motioned for her to sit down. "I didn't expect that the secretaries of Mr. Jones would be so beautiful. I was a little disappointed that I couldn't see the beauty. But now I am satisfied."
Jane was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to answer him. She looked at her watch and said. "Tina is not feeling well today, so I came on her behalf. Since the contract has been delivered, I'll go back first."
"Wait." Jane turned around and was ready to leave, but Mr. Hoffman stopped her and pointed to the seat next to her. "It's time for lunch. You won't have time to eat when you go back. Sit down and eat with me."
Jane hesitated for a moment and finally sat down. After all, he was the boss of the cooperative party. As a small secretary, of course, she should not make him awkward. "Thank you, Mr. Hoffman." "Miss Carter wasn't been with Mr. Jones for a long time. I haven't heard of you before." After Jane sat down, Mr. Hoffman didn't do anything excessive. He just asked Jane from time to time while eating. Jane kept eating the cold dishes in front of her. When she heard the question, she stopped eating and said. "I've been transferred to a secretary recently. I used to be in another department. If there's anything wrong, please don't mind it, Mr. Hoffman."
"No, you are doing good. Mr. Jones is blessed."
Jane smiled and did not speak. She ate very cautiously, but fortunately. There was no situation that worried her.
However, Jane felt uncomfortable
after the meal. When she was about to leave, Mr. Hoffman handed her a business card and patted Jane on her shoulder meaningfully. "I also heard something about Miss. Carter. If you are willing to come to my
company, I can accept the
conditions given by Mr. Jones. Miss. Carter can think about it. After all, now everyone knows that Mr. Jones will soon marry his fiancee. Am I right?"
He was about to marry his fiancée?
On the way back, Jane took out heer phone and browsed through the latest gossip news, only to find that Sarah and Jeffery had often appeared in various public occasions recently.
In the pictures and videos, Sarah held Jeffery's arm with an elegant smile. She would occasionally wave at the camera while Jeffery remained indifferent.
Many people said that Sarah and Jeffery were a perfect match and were destined to be together. Even Jane felt that they were really well matched. In any way, Jeffery looked better matched with Sarah than with her.
When they returned to the company, it was more than half an hour since they went to work in the afternoon. When Jane entered the hall, she saw a large LCD screen playing live reports. And the venue was the diamond exhibition of the Building.
"Jane." Someone called her from behind. Jane turned around and saw Mona walking towards her.
Jane frowned out of habit. "How come I always meet people who always cause me trouble recently?" However, contrary to her expectations, Mona did not come looking for trouble this time.
"Let's talk." She looked at Jane seriously and sincerely.
"We have nothing to talk about." Jane's attitude was cold. She only felt that this woman was inexplicable.
A few days ago, she hated her so much that she wanted her to die soon. Now, she wanted to talk to her again.
She lifted her foot and wanted to leave, but Mona took a step forward and stood in front of her. "I know that you like Jeffery and I like him, but now that someone was the early bird who catched the wrom first, shouldn't we have a chat?"
"Who says I like Mr. Jones?"
Jane snorted and laughed. Her heart
was already in a mess, and she felt even more uncomfortable when she was stepped on the feet by her. "Besides since I like Mr. Jones, you also like Mr. Jones, then we are rivals in love. There is nothing to talk between the rivals in love. You don't want to tell me that we will work together to get rid of Sarah first,
then we will compete fairly. Do you think I will believe you?"
Mona was stunned by Jane's words. She had rarely spoken when she had been looking for trouble with Jane. And she had never thought that Jane would be so glib since Jeffery had stood up for her.
"You've caught me by surprise.
Looks like you're quite good at
disguising yourself in front of Jeffery." Mona said with a laugh and
cut to the chase. "Now that an
enemy of an enemy has appeared, and she's also your enemy. We can
talk about our matters in the future.
Shouldn't we join hands to fight
outsiders now?"
"I never thought of anyone as my enemy. As for who Mr. Jones likes, that's his freedom. He likes who he likes, and hates who he hates.. No matter what he does, it's useless."
"Then can you just stand by and watch as another woman robbed Jeffery away from you?"☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
