Chapter 34 Running Wild

Mr. Jonathan, I’ve received the clothes. I’d like to treat you to dinner this Friday to express my gratitude. Would that be a convenient time for you?

Jonathan was in a meeting when he received the text message.

He had not had any rest since he got off the plane and rushed to the office to work overtime. He had not gotten more than four hours of sleep every day and had been having several meetings consecutively. Due to that, both he and Walter had dark circles under their eyes.

The latter couldn’t help but think that the power of love was indeed powerful as he watched Jonathan work like he had been drugged.

When Jonathan heard the phone vibrate and saw that there was a text from Michaela, he instantly interrupted the executive who was talking, “Let’s take a break and continue after ten minutes.”

 

Then, without caring about the people in the room, who had varying reactions, he got up and walked out of the conference room to call Michaela.

The woman guessed that Jonathan must be busy seeing that he didn’t reply to her, so she gave Lorelei a video call.

 

Lorelei was still basking in glee at the fact that Alois had invited her out for dinner. She kept asking questions about what she should do during the dinner. “What should we talk about to ease the tension?” “Would it seem too unladylike if I told him how I feel now? Or do you think I should use this chance to invite him out again?”

However, Jonathan’s call came through when she was getting invested in the conversation.

Michaela almost threw her phone when she saw the call. But she quickly bid farewell to Lorelei and feigned calmness before answering the call. “Mr. Jonathan!”

“Are you going to sleep soon?”

Her heart thumped upon hearing his deep and alluring voice. “I’m going to sleep in a while,” she answered softly.

“Is everything going well with your new job?”

His composed voice sounded hoarse from having several meetings consecutively, but it sounded extremely attractive.
