The Billionaire Husband's Betrayal by Nancii Agosto

Chapter 28: Claire’s POV

The next day, I met with Jordan and got to see the company location. It wasn’t far from the cafe where he offered me the job originally. It went well and I was given the task of working on a few structural designs to send to the 3D designers for a mock–model to be developed. It had been a week since I started and I finally felt a sense of normalcy. Jordan has been super helpful and we’ve been working on a few projects together in his office. It’s been great having a friend to talk to and a boss that believed in me.

As I finished my last structural blueprint and email it to the 3D designers, Jordan comes to my desk.

“How are things coming along?” He asks as he leans against my desk.

“Great! I just sent the last blueprint over to the next team. They said the mock–models should be ready for inspection within the next two weeks.” I smile as I close my laptop and put my tablet away.

“Wow, you’re probably the most productive worker I’ve ever had.” He laughs and rubs the back of his neck.

“Well, I want to make sure I’m an asset after you put so much trust in me. I’d hate to let you down.” Jordan had given a chance when no one else did. Not only that, but he’s believed in me for years and he’s been there for me a lot lately.

“Well, in that case, I’d say a celebration in is order. Would you be willing to join me for dinner?” He asks shyly.

“That sounds nice.”
