CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

Chapter 747

Shane frowned at the question. “I've called you here to discuss Jacqueline's recovery banquet.”

“Isn't Mr. Gunn in charge of that?” asked Jackson curiously.

Shane nodded. “He suffered from a stroke a few days ago. He's now in the hospital, so he can't do that anymore.”

“Wait, what? Grandpa's in the hospital?” Jacqueline stood up in shock.

Shane knitted his brows. “You didn't know?”

Jacqueline's eyes flickered as she forced a smile. “Grandpa never told me. Maybe he doesn't want me to worry, because I'm not exactly in good shape either.”

That makes sense.

Shane did not doubt her as he looked away. “Since Mr. Gunn can't do it now, I'll pass it on to Jackson. You're her boyfriend, after all. I'll assist you.”

“All right.” Jackson nodded.

Jacqueline lowered her head. She was not happy with how things turned out.

She did not want Jackson to be in charge of her recovery banquet, but Shane had pointed out that Jackson was her boyfriend.

If I refuse, what would they think?

Jackson had his eyes on Jacqueline all this time. It was impossible not to catch the discontent in her eyes. He clenched his fists but did not say anything about the matter.

Then, his phone rang. He excused himself, saying it was an emergency.

He had wanted to take Jacqueline home before he left, but the woman claimed she wanted to go shopping later, and thus rejected his offer.

Jackson was not sure if that was true, or whether she simply did not want to leave Shane. He looked disgruntled when he left the premise.
