Chapter 189 - Austins Girlfriend, Jennifer

Chapter 189 - Austin's Girlfriend, Jennifer

At this time, Austin's eyes shifted towards Javier, who didn't let Jennifer reply.

This raised his eyebrows to once again ask, "Mr. Johson, I think I will like to hear the same form of your girlfriend.."

"Why not? But I'm actually interested in why are you so keen to know about my girlfriend's professional life?" Javier was no less in getting the hints that this Autin obviously passed in Jennifer's direction.

He noted how he was time and again peeking at her face with some different warmness which totally irked him.

Meanwhile, Jennifer kept her hand over Javier's shoulder in order to calm him down.

Passing a warm smile to Austin, she maintained composure, "As Javier told you that I have already completed my graduation so I'm planning to assist him in his work too. This way, my education will come in some work and I will be able to ease his workload."

Hearing her brief answer, Austin was stunned, "Brilliant... I will say, Jennifer."

His way of speaking her name sent chills down her spine.

Lifting her eyes she saw his well-defined face, which was totally in amusement. "Ahem… it's Ms. Taylor."

The correction was needed since has had no wish to get exposed at this point in front of everyone. Especially when Javier has no idea about her plan of using the laptop and her friendship with Austin too.

Looking at the region and the kind of interest that Austin showed in Jennifer's life, did gain Shirley's attention too.

Her mind was already expecting something but sooner or later she brushed it off from her head.

'How can this lady know this man!? It is almost impossible.' Yet her heart wasn't settled when she witnessed how much Austin tried to initiate a conversation from time and again.

At last, it was Shawan who interrupted the talk, "Dinner is ready. We shall head towards the dining table. Shall we?" Extending his elbow towards Shirley, she nodded her head and had her hands along with his elbow.

In a similar manner, Jennifer and Javier walked towards the dining table and sat at their designated chairs.

Unfortunately, Jennifer's chair was placed just spaced just opposite to that of Austin's chair. Throughout the dinner conversation, she kept her head down to avoid some kind of hint.

"Mr. Brown, as far as I have heard, you are here for some more work rather than the business. Is that true?" Shawn asked while taking a sip of his wine.

Charles too looked stunned by the same, "really? I had no idea about anything like this."

At this time, Jennifer's heartbeat was caused when her hand froze in the middle air while taking a sip from her glass.

For a few seconds, as if her soul was already to expose, she had no idea why suddenly this topic was brought in between the talks.

Passing all the other people a smile, Austin remains relaxed.

"You are correct! I'm here it more than business. Actually, my girlfriend ran back here after we had a small fight. So.. I'm here to bring her back with me." Austin replied with a bright smile.

"Oh, so you have a girlfriend too? I had no idea about that." Charles looked surprised since he never expected Austin to be committed.

Most of the children of his age were usually in causal relationships. "Yes, I do. In Fact, she just landed here a few days ago. I don't know why but.. yeah I will have to bring her with me at any cost."

This time Shirley who constantly heard his words, coughed slightly to gain attention towards her. "Seems like you both are really in love with each other. Who is this lucky girl? May I know her name?"

Hearing this, Austin a chuckle escaped off his lips.

Taking a glance at Jennifer's face which was filled with horror, his heart suddenly felt satisfaction. 'At least you know my appearance is only for you…'

Yet, in front of everyone has no interest to open up his identity and putting Jennifer in a difficult spot too.

Instead of answering back, all he did was blush a little bit and once an concentrate on his food.

Somehow Shirley took the notice of how he tried to avoid the question, but just her curiosity gets better out of her too. "So shy! Tell us, probably we can help you to seek your differences."

"I highly appreciate the step that Mrs. Johsons is taking. But practically speaking, I believe the fights between a couple should remind them of the two people themselves. She will be revealed once… I take her back and get married.:

COUGH COUGH!

Jennifer's food stuck in her throat after she heard his words.

Javier immediately brought the glass of water near her and made her gulp it in one go.

At the same time, he rubbed her back lightly, "Eat slowly… It's okay, it will be fine."

Handing the glass back to him, Jennifer coughed once again and noticed that she is fine now. 'Seriously, is this guy here to take me back or.. to give me a heart attack?!'

At first, over introduced her as his girlfriend and now, Austin indirectly referred to her as his girlfriend and.. talking about getting married!?

Gosh, how many men are there in her life with whom is she associated!?! The same thought brought a creeping danger to her heart.

Once everyone noticed that Jennifer is alright, Shawn again shifted his attention towards Austin, "Seems like, you are here for dual purpose, good for you, hopefully, we can maintain the family terms."

"Same from my side, Mr. Johnsons. Umm.. May I know where is the powder room?" Austin asked with a simple tone when Shawn asked Amaira, "Go and show him the restroom."

Amaira, who is currently looking at her father and then at Austin. "S-"

"Let Jennifer lead the way, with showing him the powder room. Is it alright Jennifer?"
