Chapter 1251
When Fiorella walked out of Johnston Group, she did not leave the place immediately. Instead, she went to the coffee place opposite and ordered a cup of coffee to chill.
She was waiting for Jared to come out and walk into her trap.
In the afternoon, Jared continued working after lunch. He did not rest at all.
Fiorella was comfortably having her tea time at the coffee place. She did not expect Jared to stay in there even during lunch break.
The customers in the coffee place had shifted from group to group.
Fiorella was the only one who continued sitting with her dessert and coffee.
Fiorella looked at the time, and it was already two in the afternoon. She was starting to be impatient. ‘Did I overthink it? Is Jared really out of town?’
Fiorella held her bag, walked out of the coffee place, and walked to her car.
At the same time, Jared had just finished working on the last document. He covered the pen, wore his coat, and walked out of the office.
He was worried that if he delayed for even a minute, he would bump into Fiorella at the office and be stalled by her again. So, he hurried to the parking lot.
Fiorella got into her car and took out her phone to search for Jared’s contact. She hesitated for a moment. Then she pressed the dial button.
Jared had just reached the parking lot when his phone suddenly rang. He took out his phone to check. ‘It’s Fiorella. Why is she calling again?’
He slipped his phone back into his pocket as he had no intention of answering the call. Then, he quickly walked to his car.
Fiorella was holding her phone while waiting for Jared’s voice to come through. All of a sudden, a familiar figure flashed across her eyes. She immediately looked over, ‘Isn’t that Jared?’
She decisively got down from the car and walked toward that person. She heard the ringtone too. So, she quickened her steps and watched that person get into the car. It so happened that it was Jared’s car too. ‘I knew it. He was around this whole time.’
After Jared entered the car, the phone stopped ringing. He started his car engine and was ready to leave. When he reversed his car and was about to drive forward, a figure suddenly appeared right in front of his car standing. Jared immediately stepped on the brake. ‘Why did this person suddenly appear?’
After taking a closer look, Jared gasped. ‘Isn’t that Fiorella? Didn’t she leave already? What is she doing here?’
At that moment, Jared’s mind was filled with questions. Fiorella slowly walked toward the passenger seat. ‘It really is Jared.’ Then, she pulled the car door open and sat in the car.
“Mr. Jared, what are you doing here? Aren’t you out of town?” Fiorella smirked and looked at Jared.
‘Gotcha! Thanks to that uncovered pen and me for not driving off earlier. Otherwise, I would’ve missed you.’
Jared looked at Fiorella politely, but deep down inside, he was wondering how he should answer her question.
“How did you know that I was out of town?’ Jared did not reply to her but threw another question.
“Didn’t your assistant tell you that I went to the office and looked for you?” Fiorella did not answer his question too and replied with another question.
Jared furrowed his eyebrows a little. Then, he turned to Fiorella, looking like he had a sudden realization, “I think she did mention roughly, but I was busy at that time, so I did not think much about it. After that, I forgot about it.”
“Such a big company, and yet you have to take care of everything on your own. You seem to have a hard time, Jared. Your employees are really useless.”
Fiorella did not expose him. The only thing that mattered to her was finding him. As for him lying, she felt that there was no need for him to admit it. It was not important.
