Chapter 18 A Woman as Flirtatious as a Fox
He just didn't expect that Jensen Knight, who was always decent, would allow something like this to happen.
Didn't need to think, it must have been incited by this seductive woman.
Maybe this seductive woman knew his daughter was coming and deliberately made this happened. This was a challenge to their dignity!
Zain thought and his anger was fuming up.
"Dad, dad!" Karina shouted a few times. She had been talking for so long, but her father hadn't responded at all.
Zain put down the curtain and looked at Karina with gentleness, "What's wrong my baby?"
"I've said so much just now, and you weren't listening? I was saying that Jensen isn't usually like this, so don't get angry with him, dad. And don't be so impulsive in the future too, otherwise it'll be a hard time for me facing Jensen later." Karina said while both of her hands held Zain's arm and rubbed her head against his shoulder, looking much like a happy little girl.
Hearing that Karina was still favoring Jensen, the rage in Zain's heart was even more fierce and out of control.
That seductive woman...
He remembered her!
After Rae left Knight Group, she didn't want to go back to the company yet. Since there's a group of young and handsome guys with good ability in the company, nothing would go wrong. After thinking for a while, she realized that she hadn't see her dad in the hospital for a long time, so Rae took a taxi and headed to a private hospital. Since Heath had been living here for some years, the medical staff were familiar with Rae to the point that they greeted her when they saw her. Rae held a bunch of sunflowers she just bought downstairs, nodded at everyone and quickly arrived at a door of a senior ward.
Rae pushed open the door, and there was no trace of the smell of disinfectants. The walls of the room were light pink, the bed covers and sheets were printed with cartoon zoo patterns, and not just icy cold white colors. These were the changes Rae requested at the beginning, she didn't want her father to lie in a place without warmth all day. Of course, all this was changed after Jensen donated a dozen of advanced testing equipment to the hospital.
"Dad It's me, Rae. I bought you sunflowers.I miss you so much...See those flowers? You're the sun to me. I was brought up beneath your sunshine, without you, the lively, cheerful and lovely Rae would not exist today..." Rae murmured and walked to throw away the flowers beside the bedhead that nurse had put in today and placed the sunflowers inside. After getting it done, she dusted her hands and went in closer to look at Heath's face, only to see his eyes tightly closed and his eyes were moving under his eyelids. Looking at the only movement over his entire body, Rae smiled, "Dad, I know you must nag me again, that I should be modest.like Rae, even if you're really lively, cheerful and lovely, do not boast about your merits, otherwise someone will be jealous and take away everything you have someday..." Take away everything she had.
The pretended smile on Rae's face twitched when she said that. She knew she was really to the point.
She always felt that her father could feel everything, so even if his eyes were closed, she had to pretend to be happy from the moment she stepped into the hospital. But she wasn't happy at all, every time she saw her father lying quietly on bed, there was only hatred in her heart. She hated Stanley who was now merry and happy, owning a listed company and getting praised by people. Why did her father suffer this kind of fate in return though he was diligent for his whole life, nice and kind? Not only that, though he was lying numbly on bed today, he was used by some unscrupulous journalists as a cautionary tale and was scolded endlessly. The comments below were even more evil.
"Don't worry, dad. I've already found someone to help me, you won't lie down in vain. I'll drag someone down to accompany you." After Rae finished saying that, she noticed that Heath's eyes were moving significantly faster, and the heartbeat monitoring device on the side also measured fluctuations. She knew it was her father blaming her for having such evil thoughts. Rae held Heath's hand, "Don't be angry, dad. There are some things that I must do, not for you but for myself. Otherwise, I can hardly be happy in this life."
Then for that whole afternoon, Rae had sat in the hospital and chattered to Heath about her recent events, about the company, herself and Eric.
Rae received a phone call from Jensen in the evening. He asked her to attend a charity dinner with him and said that she didn't need to do anything, just to eat. Rae listened and didn't forget to bargain, "This kind of dinner must require fully dressed up right, then how's the fee going to be? This isn't an ordinary dinner anymore."
"..." Jensen saw that she was always talking about money and was extremely speechless, then he said, gritting his teeth, "As you wish!"
"Then that's good. As long as the payment is enough, I'm even willing to play a show with you if you want me to. I'm with my dad now." Rae said.
"Okay, I'll pick you up later."
After saying that, the call disconnected.
Rae watched two episodes of Korean dramas and was flooded with sadness from the crying and wailing inside the drama when Jensen came. He knocked on the door first, then pushed open the door to come in, and treated it as if it was a normal visit and said, "Heath, I'm here to pick up Rae."
Rae was touched by this small act of Jensen, she felt that he really did respect her father. Others never did this, they only regard her father as a patient and weren't as solemn and serious. Rae didn't say it out, but her eyes had sharply caught it first, "You went home and changed your pants? Oh was it really necessary? It was just a little bit wet on the crotch area, do you know that washing clothes harms~" Jensen saw that she was speaking so straightforwardly without being shy, and Heath was still listening, so he immediately lowered his head towards her lips and kissed her, wanting her to be quiet. Sure enough, Rae became quiet. She glanced at the person on the bed and said, "I'am leaving now dad. I'll come visit you another day. Remember to miss me."
As they were at that kind of charity dinner, they certainly couldn't dress casually, so Rae thought Jensen would take her to some clothing studio to change. But to her surprise, he drove the car directly to a designer store. There were two staff members in professional dresses standing in front of the store, and it looked like they were waiting for them. Rae was nestled in the passenger seat and swiping on Facebook originally, when she saw Jensen parked the car there and wasn't moving, she then put down her phone and asked, "You want to buy me clothes here?"
"Go in with them, I'll wait for you here." Jensen raised his chin and pointed to the store.
Rae didn't say much, if it was needless for her to pay, why not? She pushed open the door to get off, and the two female staff members immediately came forward. They were very cordial as they called her las name and welcomed her. Rae followed them in. As she took a glance at the interior decorations and products displayed separately, she knew all of them were designed to enhance the shopping experience. Brand is the power, she thought. Even though it's expensive, it still made the shopping experience worthwhile. When passing by a shelf, she saw a dress that was particularly beautiful and subconsciously stopped her steps.
A staff saw that and said, "Miss Jordan, the dress you're going to wear tonight is in the dressing room. If there's another style that you like, you can make a call and we will deliver it to your house later." Hearing that, Rae didn't expect that Jensen have chosen a dress for her. She shrugged her shoulders and continued walking and didn't look at any other dresses.
She was taken into the dressing room by two women. The room was softly lit and had several large floor-to-ceiling mirrors that could illuminate the front and back of a person in full view. After Rae sat down on a sofa, one served her a cup of tea, while the other went to get the dress. The staff gave her a brief introduction while waiting, "The dress that you're going to wear later is called Galaxy, which is designed specifically for you. The designer's name is E..." "Wait a minute, specially designed?" Rae didn't care what the designer's name was or her impressive resume. It's no doubt that the designer was certainly excellent since he had the ability to work in a designer brand like this!
What she cared most was that the dress was specially designed and made to her?
Then did it mean that she would have her first designer dress soon?
Rae's heart thumped while thinking about this. It wasn't because she was about to wear the dress, but because she didn't expect her casual words to be bore in mind by Jensen, and he even found an opportunity to fulfill it to her. It must be because she joked that Karina's clothes for being so expensive last time and had told him to earn more money to support Karina, so that's why Jensen did so.
He is so...
Rae didn't know how to describe him anymore.
"Yes, this is one of the dress in our couture project. Mr. Knight has already discussed your size with our designer long ago, that's why we haven't bothered you." The staff explained politely. The dress arrived.
When Rae saw it for the first time, she felt that it indeed matched the name Galaxy.
The color of the dress from the shoulders to the hem was gradually fading from dark blue to black, and it was embellished with many silver dots. Not knowing what craft technique was used, when the dress swayed, the dots on it reflected out light, just like real stars! Rae was stunned. She had always insisted that as long as you knew how to match, even cheaper clothes could also be quite fascinating. However after seeing the real designer dress, she only understood that some things could really only be bought with high price!
"Miss Jordan, let me help you put it on." The staff held the dress in front of her and said.
"How... How much is this?" Rae's poor and shabby nature kicked in, she asked while the staff removed her clothing.
"We don't know the specific amount, but you can refer to the same designer's design work in the previous years." The staff smiled.
After Rae was changed into the dress, she was still staring blankly at it, and before she could return to her conscious, she was brought by the staff to another area to have her makeup done.
Outside the store.
Jensen leaned against the car, his slender figure was perfect even though he just stood so casually. His right hand was holding a cigarette and he seemed to be bothered by something. The plume
of cigarette smoke dissipates, as he blew a cloud of smoke. Indeed, there was something bothering him. He had just received a phone call from his grandmother, saying that there will be a birthday party for Karina the next month, and he must attend.
And coincidentally, that day was also Rae's birthday too!
ī
Jensen lost his patience instantly and consequently, he was heavily scolded by his grandmother. She said that the Clark family had a wide range of relationships. The birthday party would invite friends from the business community. Before hanging up the phone, she threatened him again that he must attend.
