Chapter 719 Axel's Fear

719 Axel's Fear

Day Seventy-Six...

Jane and Nathan were so immersed in kissing each other when her phone rang, interrupting their passionate moment. Jane wanted to ignore it. But her phone kept on ringing. She drew back from Nathan as she picked up her phone from her pocket.

Jane sighed deeply upon seeing Kazuki's caller ID on her phone screen. "Give me a second, Nate. I'll just answer this call."

Nathan just nodded his head as he kept quiet. Jane remained on his lap, straddling him as she answered Kazuki's call. She put it on a loudspeaker mode so that Nathan could also hear their conversation.

"Hello, Uncle? Do you need something?" Jane politely asked him, hiding her disappointment.

"Time's up, now, Lady Jane. We should go home. Your father might be looking for you already!"

Nathan put on a pitiful look when he gazed at Jane. He didn't want to part ways with Jane yet. He shook his head, signifying his objection with Mr. Kazuki. "Don't leave." he mouthed the words silently.

Nathan snatched the phone from her hand and pressed the "mute" button to silence Jane's microphone. Kazuki couldn't hear them.

"I thought you intend to give me my reward. The reward that I want is for you to stay with me the whole day. You are leaving tomorrow... so... this is the least you can do for me today." Nathan drew her closer to his body, locking her in his arms.

Jane couldn't possibly leave Nathan especially if he was begging her like this.

"I thought you didn't want to disobey my father? Did you change your mind now?" she teased him, anchoring her arms around his neck.

Nathan wasn't able to respond. He was torn in between his desire to be with her and his resolve to win Mr. Hiroshi's trust.

"Lady Jane? Are you still there? Can you hear me? I'm going to come up if you don't say a word." Kazuki warned her. He was puzzled why the other line suddenly became silent.

Jane smiled at him, planting another soft kiss on his lips before taking her phone back. "Fine. I'll sneak out and come back here. Are you okay with that?"

Nathan's lips curled up into a satisfied smile the moment he heard that. "Okay. I'll wait for you. I'll wrap up everything here. Do you mind going on a date with me... today?" Nathan was willing to cancel all his schedules today just to be with Jane.

"Of course, I would love that." Jane winked at him. They had to be a lowkey couple in the meantime.

After agreeing with their plans, Jane finally informed Kazuki that she was on her way to meet him in the lobby.

Though Nathan was reluctant to let her go, he had no choice but to part ways with her. But before that, he kissed her hungrily for one last time.bender

"See you later, handsome," Jane softly mumbled when they broke the long passionate kiss.

Nathan could only watch her back until she vanished from his sight. He sighed deeply, feeling helpless. Soon, he summoned Axel through the intercom. A few seconds later, Axel entered his office, unable to look at him in the eyes.

"Sir... I apologize for my failure to stop Miss Jane. I guess she has telepathic skills." He paused, scratching his face while smiling sheepishly. "She knew that you were here," Axel tried to cover up for the secretary's mistake. "Is she mad?"

Nathan lifted his eyebrow and replied, "I guess you are not a good liar. She is very sharp."

Axel just bit his lower lip, and continued staring at the floor. He couldn't tell if Nathan was mad or not. However, he was using his normal tone.

"Anyway, I called you here for something else."

Axel felt relieved when he heard that. He thought Nathan would reprimand him. Luckily, Nathan seemed like he was in a good mood. "What is it, Sir?" Axel finally lifted his head, gazing back at Nathan. "Cancel all my meetings and appointments today... including my appointments for the next three days." Nathan gave his order. "And also... book me a ticket going to Country J tomorrow." Nathan's eyes gleamed when he said those words.

At first, Axel was taken aback for a moment. He didn't know why Nathan wanted to go to Country J. aIIn0veInxt.0

"OK, Sir. Don't you want to use the private plane?" he asked him for confirmation. He didn't know if he just misheard it or if Nathan had just forgotten about his private plane.

"No. I won't use the private plane. You should book me a ticket for a normal flight... not the VIP one. Do it discreetly." Nathan had to be more careful when following Jane. He could tell that Mr. Hiroshi was keeping an eye on him.

"Oh, one more thing, I think... we can also utilize the private plane tomorrow. But the destination is different. Go to country F using my private plane. You can bring Chantha with you." Nathan added. This was his diversion strategy, making Mr. Hiroshi believe that he was going to Country F, not Country J.

Axel: "..." feeling a bit insecure. Well, he couldn't blame him. Chantha always flirted with handsome men in front of them.

"You'll never find out if you don't give it a shot. There's nothing to lose, Axel. I'm telling you this not just as your Boss but as your friend. Have confidence in yourself. You're handsome too," Nathan encouraged Axel, well aware of Axel's concealed affection for Chantha. Axel often engaged in banter with Chantha, not out of disdain, but because he found it difficult to express his genuine feelings, harboring a fear of potential rejection.
