Chapter 308

Tonight, Stefan and her eldest brother were not at home. They went abroad to discuss projects. Most of the family members were women. In name, Jerome was not a stranger. At this moment, it was late at night. Everyone was watching over Sia. She did not want to disturb her family, so she took Jerome to the tea room.

Unexpectedly, Fran was drinking tea in the tea room alone.

“Sixth sister, you haven’t rested yet.”

“Ah, this is my friend…” Chloe introduced.

“Fourth Young Master Xavier family, Mr. Jerome. I saw him at Sia’s birthday banquet last time. I remember.”

Fran put down the teacup gracefully and smiled at Jerome. “In our family, except for a few brothers, there has never been a male friend around her. Fourth Young Master Xavier is the first one.”

“It is my honor to choose me as her friend.”

“It’s my honor to have a chance to meet the future Mrs. President of Stoeyae alone,” Jerome said sincerely.

Chloe was a little surprised. She didn’t expect him to say that.

“I’m just Chloe’s sister, and my husband is just an ordinary member of the council. I can’t bear what you say,” Fran said calmly.

Jerome curled her lower lip and declined to comment.

“Chloe, you entertain the guests. I won’t disturb you.” Fran slowly stood

Although Chloe was smiling, she clearly felt that the atmosphere between sixth sister and Jerome was not right, but she could not tell what was

wrong.

Fran retreated to the outside of the tea room.

As soon as she closed the door, her expression darkened. She took out her phone from the pocket of her jacket and dialed her assistant’s number.

“I asked you to check. Have you found anything?”

“Madam, I have checked. The background information about Jerome has been sent to your private email.”

Since it was getting late, Jerome didn’t want to disturb him, so he just sat down and went back.

After returning to the car, Secretary Dyer immediately smiled and said, “Director Xavier, Miss Thorp treats you better. Not only did she accept your gift, she also invited you in to sit.”

“Let’s go.” Jerome pushed up his glasses, his expression not very happy.

Chloe neither accepted his gift nor invited him in to sit.

Everything was still the same as before. Everything was his own initiative, to fight for, and he had always been willing.

Chloe had never taken a step forward to him.

“Joseph has now been completely abandoned by Miss Thorp and has been completely eliminated. Looking at Miss Thorp, there is no second man who is more outstanding than you. You and Miss Thorp will definitely be able to achieve good results!”

Jerome’s cold and slender hand loosened the knot on his tie and asked lightly, “Do you mean that I am not as outstanding as Joseph?”

Secretary Dyer shivered in fear, “This servant doesn’t dare! Director Xavier, please forgive me!”

“Chloe might have let go of Joseph, but Joseph hasn’t really let go of her, so we can’t let our guard down.”

As he spoke, Jerome looked out the window with a dark gaze.

“Oh right, Director Xavier, I have some clues about what you wanted me to investigate.” Secretary Dyer said with a gloomy face.

“Speak.”
