“Joey, do you have the time? If you don't, I'll send somebody else over instead.”
Josephine considered her options. Since she was in charge of the interview, it
would undoubtedly be much easier if she went there herself. Besides, the other
party was one of Dane’s female assistants. She believed that there was nothing
to worry about since meeting with the female assistant would be quite safe.
“I have some time right now, so I'll head over myself!” she said. Her team leader
nodded and gave her permission to meet the female assistant. Afterward,
Josephine returned to her office. Grabbing her bag and notebook, she left the
office and called for a cab to bring her to the high-end clubhouse.
After Josephine walked into the clubhouse, the female assistant immediately
came down in person to receive her. Then, the female. assistant guided her to a
private room on the third floor. There was no desk for work in the private room.
She took a seat, and the female assistant served her a cup of tea. “Miss
Jacobson, let's begin!”
Josephine nodded in agreement and began discussing work with the female
assistant. The female assistant started by introducing the company’s background
before bringing up certain issues that required special attention. After a while,
she seemed to become thirsty from talking so much and offered some tea to
Josephine. “Miss Jacobson, have some tea!”
At the same time, she picked up her own cup to drink some tea. Josephine had
also gotten. thirsty after traveling so far, so she picked up her teacup and drank
the tea without hesitation. She was so thirsty that she finished half the cup in a
single gulp.
“Miss Jacobson, I'll get you some more tea once you've finished your cup.” The
female assistant urged and stood up, looking as though she wanted to refill their
cups. Josephine picked up her cup and finished the rest of her tea, then she
handed her cup to the female assistant.
When the female assistant turned around, the hint of a triumphant smile
appeared in her gaze. The truth was that she had not invited Josephine to the
clubhouse to discuss work.
Everything was simply part of Dane’s evil scheme. He had taken a fancy to
Josephine and wanted to take advantage of her. That was why he had made
these arrangements. As long as she finished that cup of tea, she would be
vulnerable to his advances.
Afterward, he could just settle the matter with money and sweep everything
under the rug. That was his usual method to deal with beautiful women, and he
believed that Josephine would also keep quiet after the incident.
When the female assistant came back with a glass of water in her hand, she
answered her phone in front of Josephine. “What? Are you coming over now, Mr.
Cooke? Okay. Alright. Yes, Miss Jacobson is still here. We are discussing work
matters.”
After ending the call, she turned to Josephine and stated, “Miss Jacobson, Mr.
Cooke is coming over soon. Please wait for a while.” Josephine frowned and
answered, “In that case, I will ask my colleague to join me. We can finish the
interview today.”
“No, no. Mr. Cooke is only coming over to take some documents, the female
assistant hastily elaborated. “Take a seat! I need to go downstairs to settle some
work matters.”
Then, she left the room. Meanwhile, Josephine couldn't help but feel so hot that
she stood up from the heat. She came to stand before the floor-to-ceiling
windows and enjoyed the cold air coming from the air- conditioning. Why is my
body burning up all of at sudden?
She fanned her face with her hand, thinking that the weather was far too hot. It's
only March! Why is it so hot?
She was generally more sensitive to subtle changes. The same also applied to
her own body, so she brushed away her doubts without much concern. Feeling
slightly bored, she picked up her phone and sent a message to Ethan. “What are
you doing?”
“At the house, monitoring the renovations, Ethan responded quickly. His reply
instantly filled her heart with a sweet sense of happiness. For some reason, she
suddenly missed him very much. The images of his body that she occasionally
saw by accident also popped up in her mind unprompted, causing her entire
body to burn even hotter. At this moment, her phone rang. It was a phone call
from Ethan.
