Jean let her assistant go to take a rest after they finished the preparation work for the expo. Then she started to pack her stuff.

Arthur called, but she didn't answer,

Then he sent a voice message to say sorry. "I'm so sorry to bother you. When I booked the hotel, I didn't know your father's attitude or the fact that you were followed by your father's henchman."

Jean ignored him and continued to pack the stuff.

Arthur kept bombarding her with a message. "If you keep on neglecting me, I'm going to your room." Jean jumped up at this message.

Her assistant and the deputy general manager also lived on this floor. Every knock on her door would call their attention.

If he came to her room, then they had wasted their time pretending not to know each other.

She clenched her teeth and called him up. "Can you do me a favor? I need to pack, and I got work to do. I don't have time to chit chat."

"I just want to say sorry." Arthur sounded quite innocent.

"Alright, message received. OK?" she said sourly.

Arthur changed the subject, "I think you are up to nothing especially important. Should we have dinner together?"

Before she could reply, Arthur said, "You should ask the deputy manager and your assistant. I'll shout. Then he will not suspect."

"No, thank you." He was considerate, but she declined.

The more they did, the more they might give themselves away. They'd better not show up together before the deputy manager.

After all, it was what it was. They couldn't completely cover up the fact that they were flirting with each other.
