Chapter 49 Invited To Invest

“Captain Johnson, lunch is on me today. Come to Pearl Hotel,” Jonathan said right away.

Feeling puzzled, Amber asked, “Why would you suddenly treat me to a meal at such a formal location?”

Jonathan chuckled. “I have some matters to discuss with you. You’ll find out once you’re here.”

Amber did not think too much about it and accepted his invitation. Jonathan was a very special person to her. Hence, she was willing to have more interaction with him.

After that, he also invited Yasmin and Jessica, who accepted it despite how odd it was.

Finally, he gave Jennifer a call to report the progress of the plan. Jennifer was delighted to hear the news. Yet, she was a little uneasy. “Will they agree?” she asked.

Jonathan, on the contrary, was not the slightest bit concerned. “They’re my first option. If they don’t agree, then I’ll think of something else. Anyway, money is the least of our problems.”

At that point in time, Jennifer was more familiar with Jonathan’s character. Hence, she did not think he was bragging.

At noon, all the beautiful ladies arrived at the hotel; Jennifer arrived with both Yasmin and Jessica.

As soon as Jessica entered the room, she started attacking Jonathan verbally. “D*mn you, Jonathan. Why did you gather us, the five beauties, for? Speak up. Which one are you going to do? Are you going to rob us or take advantage of us?”

Jonathan let out a chuckle and responded, “I’m going to have a wild party with all of you tonight.”

Jessica scoffed, “Go to hell.”

The other women stared at them weirdly. Both of them were speaking without holding back, and Jonathan’s words seemed quite suggestive, as they included everyone at the scene. Everyone had a rough idea of what he meant by a wild party.

Even Yasmin, who was usually thick-skinned, blushed, but she did not say anything.

Amber and Polly ignored them since they knew what Jonathan’s character was like. Jennifer, too, was already used to it.

“Fellow leaders, please take a seat!” Jonathan called out to the crowd and ordered the waiters to serve the food.

Before the dishes arrived, Jessica spoke. “Jonathan, it’s rare that you’d treat us to a meal so formally. Tell us, are you getting married to Jennifer? Is that why you’ve gathered us here to announce the news?”

Jonathan was dumbfounded while Jennifer blushed.

Despite that, Jonathan was quick to adapt, and he said hurriedly, “Oh, how I wish that’s the case, but Jennifer isn’t willing to do so.”

Jessica laughed. “Jennifer is a swan while you’re just a toad. I’d advise you to stop dreaming.” She had always addressed Jennifer that way instead of Jen. The truth was, she looked down on Jennifer and was slightly jealous of her. Jessica just never realized her true feelings.
