Chapter 216 Travel with Her
Of course, Jean knew what Tina meant, but she didn't say anything more. Arguing was not the solution.
After dinner, Jean was about to leave. She said goodbye to Sandra, "Grandma, have a good rest at home. I have to go now. I have something to deal with in the company."
"Why are you in such a hurry? Don't you want to sit a little longer? " Sandra frowned slightly.
"No, thanks." Jean smiled and said to Sandra.
"Terence." Hearing this, Sandra stopped Terence and said to Terence, "Jean is leaving now. Please send her home for me."
"Okay." Terence nodded slightly, "Grandma, I have to go on a long trip these days It will take about a week. I'll come to see you when I come back. "
"Okay, okay." Satisfied, Sandra patted the back of Terence's hand and said to Terence, "Work is the most important Don't come to see me in such a hurry. I'm fine. "
Only then did Terence come out and get on the car with Jean. The two spoke in unison.
"What did you mean just now?"
"Are you going to travel far away?"
Terence was stunned for a while, smiled and said, "Yes, I happen to go out to discuss a project, which may take a week."
"Then Are you going alone? " Jean frowned, "How about I go with you?"
"No, thanks." Terence shook his head slightly and said to Jean, "I can handle it by myself. Besides, if I go to talk about work, you can't help me even if you go there."
"But at least I can..." Thinking of this, Jean frowned slightly. It was the best way to strengthen their relationship to go out together. Of course she wouldn't miss such a chance, so she kept persuading Terence.
But obviously, Terence didn't understand what was on Jean's mind. He looked at Jean and said, "No, thank you. I've already booked the air ticket. I'll handle it myself. Don't worry."
Terence smiled, "We are just pretending to be a couple, not really. You don't have to be so involved in the play."
As soon as Terence finished his words, Jean's face turned paler.
Terence thought it was fake, but Jean knew in her heart that she really treated Terence as her fiancé.
She looked at Terence awkwardly and was choked by Terence's words. She smiled bitterly and said to Terence, "Well, be careful. Call me if anything happens." Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
"I will." Terence said indifferently, "By the way, when I was at home just now, I wanted to explain the matter between us two clearly to grandma. I couldn't let her misunderstand me like this all the time, but why did you stop me?"
"Because..." Jean's selfish motive was obvious, but when Terence suddenly asked about it, she couldn't tell the truth. She just smiled and said, "Since it's a play, of course we have to play it all."
"As you know, your mother has always liked Julia. If you just told her the truth, she would definitely tell Julia. In that case, our efforts will be in vain." Jean smiled and continued, "Besides..."
"What are you talking about?"
"As you know, grandma has always hoped that we two can be together. She even had a conflict with aunt for this matter. She has just been discharged from the hospital and hasn't recovered yet. If you tell
her everything now, what if something goes wrong again?" With a smile, Jean continued, "So, in my opinion, only the two of us know about it. We can explain it to grandma when we break up the partnership. By then, she will be in good health and don't need to worry about it anymore."
"You are right." Hearing what Jean said, Terence nodded slightly, "You are so considerate."
Jean smiled noncommittally.
When the car arrived at the downstairs of the building of the company, Jean was about to get off the car. As soon as she put her hand on the doorknob, she seemed to remember something and turned around to look at Terence in front of her.
"What's wrong? Is there anything else? " Terence asked indifferently.
"Nothing serious. I just want to ask you, where are you going on this business trip?" Asked Jean.
"Sanya."
"Sanya is a good place." Then Jean went back to the company.
Without thinking too much, Terence went straight back to HT Company. In the evening, he packed his things and went straight to Sanya.
In order to deceive others, his flight with Julia was separated. As soon as they landed, he asked someone to send his luggage back to the hotel. Then he went directly to the branch company in Sanya to talk about the project.
Julia arrived a little late. When she walked to the door and didn't know where to go, a man came up and asked, "Excuse me, is that Miss Julia?"
"Yes, I am." Julia nodded slightly, took off her sunglasses and asked the man in front of her, "You are..."
"Here is the thing. I'm the driver sent by Mr. Chen to pick you up." The man smiled, "Miss Jean, please give me your luggage."
"Okay, thank you." Jean nodded slightly.
Sanya was really a good place to travel and relax. Looking out of the window, they saw huge coconut trees and palm trees swaying in the wind against the colorful street lamps.
Coconut trees, sea breeze, beach and canvas. Unfortunately, Julia was not in the mood to appreciate these beautiful scenery. She was very nervous and didn't know what she would face next.
"Miss Jean, here we are." When the car stopped, Julia was still in a trance, and the driver interrupted her thoughts. She finally came to her senses.
Standing at the door of the hotel, the driver handed over a room card and said to Julia, "Miss Julia, Mr. Chen is busy now. He asked you to wait for him in the hotel and someone will send him dinner in the evening. Don't run around."
"I'll wait downstairs. You can call me if you need anything." The driver said respectfully.
"Okay, I see." Julia nodded. To put it bluntly, she would do whatever she asked her to do at any time. To put it bluntly, this person was sent by Terence to monitor her.
He was just afraid that he would go back on his words.
With a bitter smile, Julia entered the room with the room card and luggage. With a beep, the door opened.
Standing at the door of the hotel, Julia felt that the hotel was very luxurious. As soon as the door was opened, Julia confirmed her idea. It was a particularly luxurious presidential suite.
