Claire paused for a moment to stare meaningfully at Jack. But she quickly controlled her feelings. She quickly sat up and pursed her lips."Don't tease me! If your girlfriend who is the manager of the clothing store sees us, she'll think all kinds of things." Claire's voice sounded annoyed.Jack sat up immediately. He brought his face closer to Claire's. "Are you jealous of Audrey?"Claire replied in a raised tone, "Why would I be jealous?!" Claire didn't understand why she couldn't keep her voice from speaking in such a tone. Come to think of it, she could have said it in a normal voice, especially since Jack was sitting nearby. Her voice could easily be heard by Jack, even if she was whispering."Why aren't you jealous?" Jack propped up his chin.Claire giggled as she watched Jack's eyebrows rise and fall. She threw a small pillow at Jack."You never answer questions correctly! At least answer my questions first, instead of asking questions back."Clap!Jack clapped his hands once,

Claire didn't stop talking during the trip. She was very excited. Not only was she happy to be able to take her friend for a drive in a new car, but she was also excited that she would soon know where Jack lived.Claire turned her head briefly to look at Jack's face. As long as he was talking, Jack only gave simple answers. Claire furrowed her brows before refocusing her gaze forward."Jack, why do you look worried?"Jack gasped. He grimaced while showing his row of white and clean teeth. "Really? Um, maybe I'm just tired. It's been a long day." He smiled silly remembering what he had done while worrying about Claire."Are you sure you're not hiding something from me?""That's too hard to do. Even if I speak silently, you'll probably hear it."Claire chuckled. She nodded before asking, "So, where do you live now? You haven't told me either. I can't go there if you don't mention the address. There will be an intersection soon, should I go straight, turn right, or go left?""Um, that's.

The smile on Matthew's face vanished like dust swept away by the wind. His breathing became labored after the young master mentioned Donald Pasmod's name. His heart, which had been warmed by Jack and Claire's sweet story of friendship, suddenly became anxious."What's wrong Matthew?" asked Jack who saw the change in his subordinate's expression."Young Master," Matthew paused to take a breath.

Why are the guards and staff standing in front of the main door to greet him?" Sophie asked herself as there was no one beside her.Sophie had just exited the Big Roodgroup parking lot when she saw a luxury car enter the building.

Sophie stared at Jack almost unblinkingly as her ex stepped out of the elevator."Sophie." Jack tried to pull his lips back.Slowly a smile also appeared on Sophie's face. Actually, she was too surprised. Apart from the fact that she hadn't expected Jack's appearance at all, Jack appeared with a completely different appearance.Jack looked charming in his suit. He was also wearing shiny black loafers. Jack's appearance was made even more perfect by the classy watch on his hand. Sophie's careful eyes confirmed that everything Jack was wearing was branded and authentic.'How can Jack wear all that? Where did he get those things?'Although she wondered this, her perspective on Jack was different. In the past, Sophie would have thought that Jack was stealing, cheating, or doing other bad things. But now, she was sure that no matter where Jack got those things from, it couldn't have been in a bad way."I-I have a job interview. Um, I applied for a job here. What are you doing at Big Roodgr

Claire picked up a paper bag. A tantalizing aroma immediately entered Jack's nose."Burger?" asked Jack when Claire handed him the paper bag. "You asked me out to give this to me?""Yes, you should eat. It's a special burger combo. I saw a customer ordering it, then I thought of you. Take it and eat it. You must not have had breakfast yet. Now get off my car because I have to go back to King Pizza."Jack smiled wryly, feeling touched and ridiculous all at once. He looked sharply at Claire."What's wrong? Don't tell me you've eaten. I know you won't let me see your dorm room because it must be really bad now, worse and more depressing than your previous dorm. And it must all be because you have no money." Claire's voice sounded so confident. "Stop being so arrogant, okay?" she continued while ruffling Jack's hair."Don't you see my clothes? Look at my watch. What can I buy if I don't have any money?"Claire laughed. "Maybe your boss or a friend gave it to you.""Oh, does it look like s

And the first meeting room was on the top floor, next to the director's office.They sat down with nervous faces. Some of them seemed to be holding tightly to their chairs, cell phones, feet, or anything else they could use to ease the tension.They were about to meet the number one person in the company.
