Hester's body was instantly stiff, and her hand was clasped into a fist. Her breath was a little disordered, but she tried her best to make herself look calm.
What she detested most in her life was that she was a
loser in the past. It was also her eternal pain. But so what? Since it was a fact, she could not stop others from talking!
"Mr. Jackson, if there isn't anything else, I'll take my leave. I don't think we need to talk more about the dinner appointment. "
There was a flash of interest in Jackson's enchanting face, but it disappeared in an instant. Jackson slowly leaned on his chair. He lifted the corners of his mouth and looked very pleased.
He hasn't met such an interesting person for a long time! But, how long would his interest for her last?
"Hester, I chose you to be my assistant because of your unyielding characteristics! Are you going to let me down at your first mission? "
"So, is that why you insisted on asking me to be your secretary?"
Hester turned around and looked at Jackson incredulously. When she got the answer to the question that had been bothering her for a long time, she had an indescribable feeling in her heart and didn't know how to express her inner thoughts.
She had speculated for many reasons why he had designated her to do so, but she had never expected that the ultimate result would be like this. It really made her feel a bit amused!
He appreciated the expression on her face, which was very intriguing but he couldn't tell what it was. Tapping his fingers on the table leisurely, he laid back in his chair.
"Or what?"
Hester was indignant at his decision, but she dared not to express her feelings directly.
She might be weak in some ways, but it didn't mean that she had no common sense. He was her boss after all. It was impossible for her to compete with him on the same level.
She bowed to Jackson and slowly s
tedly and turned away.
Well, since she had promised, she had to keep the promise no matter how reluctant she was. Anyway, they had to go to the dinner appointment. It didn't matter whether they would arrive there earlier or later, right?
After straightening out her thoughts, she turned around and left the office. Since it was still some time before five o'clock, she thought it was necessary to prepare something.
Hester sat on the chair in a daze. She took a deep breath and touched her belly, not knowing what to do!
The dinner appointment was too complicated. What could she do to avoid suffering losses?
Hester had been thinking about what she should do tonight all afternoon, so she had forgotten the time. Sitting in his office, Jackson tapped the table with his fingers. He looked out of the window with complex feelings, making it difficult to figure out what he was thinking.
He estimated that all the staff had gone. Then he slowly stood up. When he walked out of the office, he just saw Hester was in a daze He frowned and stood in front of her desk.
"What are you thinking about?"
"Ah!" Hester covered her chest with her hand and looked up in panic. Frightened by the abrupt voice, she felt bad.
"Mr. Jackson! "
"Are you ready?"
