“I don’t want to eat anything.” Elaina refused. She was a little tired at the moment and was not in the mood to go out for dinner with Jalen.
Jalen was rejected. His expression changed slightly, and he was a little embarrassed. “For your health’s sake, let’s grab a bite.”
In his opinion, it wasn’t that Elaina didn’t want to eat anything, but that she didn’t want to eat with him.
This made him a little sad, but fortunately, he had a strong mind. Otherwise, he would have turned around and left.
“Are you not busy?” Elaina asked him.
Jalen nodded. “Yes, I’m almost done with my work.”
As they were talking, Elaina’s phone rang. She took it out and saw that it was a call from Adriana. She was a little surprised.
When she answered the phone, Adriana’s voice came from the other end. “Ella, are you free today?”
“Yes, what’s wrong?” Elaina ignored Jalen. Anyway, Jalen had nothing serious to do with her. Of course, she was free.
Adriana did not know the truth. Hearing that she was free, Adriana immediately said, “We have recruited a wonderful person. I want you to come and have a look.
“If you think that there is no problem, I want him to be the vice president.”
According to Elaina’s idea, she would set up a big company in the future. Her job would be more than managing Moonlight Fashion Design Company. There would be more and more things to do in the future, and she could not handle them alone.
Moreover, she had only had experience in clothing design. If Elaina continued to expand the company, it would not be her strong suit.
In this case, recruiting people was necessary.
Elaina was a little surprised. She had told Adriana about it, but she didn’t hold much hope. After all, it was not so easy to find a satisfactory manager. She did not expect that Adriana would find one so soon.
“Okay, I will come over now.” Elaina agreed. She also wanted to know what kind of person could make Adriana so excited.
After hanging up the phone, she looked at Jalen. “Sorry, I have something to do today. Let’s do it another day.”
Jalen’s face was pale, and he was upset. But he could only say, “Okay.”
Elaina was about to take a taxi, but Jalen said, “I’ll give you a ride.”
Elaina did not refuse. After all, she had already refused him once. If she even refused him again, she was afraid that Jalen would not be able to control his anger.
In the car, neither of them spoke. Jalen dr*ve silently while Elaina looked at her phone.
In the group chat of her alumni, people were talking about the sixtieth-anniversary celebration. Everyone seemed to be curious about the so-called outstanding graduates.
Elaina did not say anything and just watched silently.
“Ella,” Jalen spoke and glanced at Elaina out of the corner of his eye.
Elaina came back to her senses, put away her phone, and looked up at him. “What’s wrong?”
“Do you h*te me now?” Jalen could not help but ask. Although he did not want to admit it, Elaina seemed to dislike him. It could be seen from her attitude.
Elaina was deep in thought, as if she was thinking carefully.
After a while, she said, “I can’t say I h*te you, but I don’t like you that much.”
Falling in love might only take an instant, but love could fade away fast too.
After Jalen’s continuous lies, she suddenly lost interest in him. Even she was surprised.
Perhaps, she was essentially a heartless person.
“Then do I still have a chance?” This was what Jalen wanted to know the most. He was afraid that Elaina would really not give him another chance. If that were the case, no matter what he did, it would be useless.
