Jason frowned for a second before shrugging and smiling. "Fine. Turn on the
heater all you want. But remember to come find me after you're done with your meeting." Corinne nodded. "If you're still here, that is."
Jason grinned. "Don't worry. I will be here."
After that, Jason followed Corinne's secretary out of the office.
'Finally, some peace,' thought Corinne. She did not waste any time getting to work. She turned on her laptop to do some paperwork in preparation for the meeting later.
Collaborating with Talbot Group was something the board of directors unanimously approved and was not something Corinne decided alone.
As much as she did not like Jason, she was immensely grateful for him helping her out in the past. However, she could not return his feelings. Thus, when Jason proposed the two companies working together to develop the piece of land in Serenity Bay, Corinne immediately agreed to bring up the idea in the board of directors meeting. As to whether they would give her the green light, that was something she had no say in.
In the end, the board of directors thought the land owned by Talbot Group would provide a strategic advantage to the company should they work together, so the project was given the green light.
However, Corinne did not expect that the project would give Jason a legitimate reason to pester her.
Corinne forgot all about Jason after he left her office. She quickly finished her work and went to get some documents from her secretary before walking over to the meeting room.
It was close to lunchtime by the time Corinne finished her meeting. All in all, the meeting took up two hours of her time. She wanted to go back to her office to rest, but her secretary reminded her Jason was stil waiting for her in the lounge area.
"He's still here?" she asked with a frown.
Her secretary nodded. "Yes. He's been waiting for you in the lounge area all this time."
"Didn't I tell you to turn on the heater?" asked Corinne with annoyance.
"I did! I turned it all the way up to thirty-five degrees Celsius, but he didn't seem to be affected by the heat!"
'What? He still stayed even with the heater cranked up that high? Anyone in their right mind would have left by now! Could it be that he has fainted already?' thought Corinne.
