Love Her to No End

Chapter 56 He Needs To Learn His Lesson

Though the last business trip was in haste, Jonathan still managed to delegate the company’s duties to his subordinates. He had also informed the others that he would now shift his focus to the business in the country.

In other words, he would try to avoid traveling in and out of the country unless he had to attend important meetings.

After returning to the country on Friday, Jonathan immediately took care of the rumors that revolved around Michaela and took her for a walk instead of diving straight into his work.

Initially, he wanted to send Michaela to work on Monday, but the cheeky lady went into Gary’s car instead because she did not want to trouble Jonathan.

To everyone’s surprise, Jonathan gave in and reminded Gary to take good care of her. He then left in another car.

She has been dodging me since the trip to the holiday resort. She must be terrified of me because of what I said in the mountains.

But at this point, Jonathan decided to take a step back and give Michaela some space. Since I’ve told her what I had in mind, I should give her some time to accept that I’d be around her.

Jonathan might have permitted Michaela to travel in Gary’s car, but he still instructed his chauffeur to follow right behind them. He could only set his mind at ease after seeing her enter the office building safely.

“All right. Let’s go!” When Jonathan was about to wind up the car window, Walter alerted him with a whisper, “Look, Mr. Xander. It’s Jacob!”

Upon hearing that, Jonathan froze for a moment before lifting his eyes. He then saw Jacob running in his direction with a grin. It was as if Jacob was not intimidated by the icy-cold expression on Jonathan’s face.

But it was not difficult to tell how exhausted he was.

Jacob bent and leaned forward to greet Jonathan in a flattering tone, “Mr. Xander.”

He came to Michaela’s office early this morning because he wanted her to get Jonathan’s help to salvage the company. The moment he saw Jonathan’s car from a distance, he thought he had lucked out.

Jonathan gave him a perfunctory reply, “Mr. Lingard. How can I help you?”

Jonathan was not keen on engaging in the conversation with him. He gave Jonathan an awkward smile and apologized, “I’ve thought about the incident that
