Carl held a pen in his hand and stared intently at Jessica on the screen.
Seeing that Jessica was staring at the screen of her phone as if she was looking at something, he
frowned slightly. Then he saw Jessica's fingers started to move. It was obvious that she was sending
messages.
Carl knew that Jessica was replying to Jayvion.
Jessica was replying to another man in front of him.
Carl narrowed his eyes slightly and raised his eyebrows, "Jessica, aren’t you afraid that I will get angry
that you are chatting with another man while you are having a video chat with me?"
Jessica looked up at him with a smile, "Then what should I do? I still have to meet Jayvion. Aren't you
going to die of anger?"
Carl cursed in his mind and forced a friendly smile, "It is enough to chat. There's no need to meet, is
there?"
Jessica neither agreed nor refused, "Alright, go on with what you are doing. I gotta go."
"I have nothing to do now." If he hung up, Jessica would go chat with Jayvion again.
Jessica raised her chin and pointed at Kalyan, who was standing behind Carl, "Kalyan has always
been standing behind you."
Kalyan stood right behind Carl with a large stack of documents in his hands.
Carl leisurely turned his head and glared at Kalyan, "These documents have been processed, haven't
they?"
Kalyan answered, "Yes."
Jessica wanted to laugh, "Alright, I gotta go. Come to my house tonight. I have something to tell you."
"Okay." Carl turned around and the expression on his face changed instantly. He smiled brightly.
...
At night.
As soon as it was time to get off work, Carl carried his coat and was about to leave.
Kalyan came in from the outside and saw that Carl was about to leave. He thought about the schedule
for this evening and said, "Mr. Carl, there are still ten minutes left before the meeting begins."
"What? I'm going home to meet my wife." Carl finished and then left.
Kalyan was lost for word.
Hearing the sound of the door closing, Kalyan recovered from the shock.
Today was also the day Kalyan wanted to quit.
However, as a senior assistant, he still needed to deal with all the unexpected situations perfectly.
Kalyan expressionlessly straightened his tie and suit. He then turned around and walked towards the
meeting room. With a serious expression, he announced, "Mr. Carl has something emergency. The
meeting is canceled."
The less one conveys, the bigger the problem.
Everyone saw Kalyan's serious expression, so someone worriedly asked, "Is something wrong?"
"Mr. Carl will take care of it. Don't worry." Kalyan felt that he was getting more and more capable of
bluffing, and it was all because of Carl.
After leaving the meeting room, Kalyan let out a long sigh of relief.
He also succeeded in bluffing today.
Carl hummed a tune all the way home.
When he passed a certain intersection, he turned around and saw a couple on the road. The man gave
the woman a bouquet, and the woman looked very happy with a shy expression.
Carl narrowed his eyes and then drove forward. When he passed by a flower shop, he got out of the
car and bought a bunch of flowers.
When he came out of the flower shop with the flowers in his hands, he wondered if Jessica would be
happy to receive the flowers.
It seemed that he had never sent Jessica flowers before.
They weren't teenagers anymore, and they missed too much time.
Looking back, Carl felt as if they were suddenly separated and suddenly reunited. Time passed so
quickly that it was like a dream.
Jessica should be happy.
Carl was thinking so intensively that he didn't notice someone in a nearby car reaching out with a
camera to take his photos.
After entering the residential area and parking the car, Carl held the flowers and quickly walked towards
the elevator entrance, impatiently wanting to see Jessica.
He knocked twice at the door.
Inside, Jessica's voice sounded, "Who is it?"
Carl said with a smile, "Your husband."
