Chapter 479 Treat Him to a Meal
After half a minute, the door was opened.
Seeing Anaya's face, Jaylon was disappointed.
"Why are you here?"
"It was Reina who invited me." Anaya raised her eyebrows. "If you have any objections, you can just leave."
Jaylon's face darkened as he entered the room.
Reina looked out from the kitchen. When she saw the flowers that Jaylon was holding, her expression changed slightly. Jaylon immediately explained, "They're fake flowers, which are plastic products."
Hearing this, Reina calmed down and went back to the kitchen to continue cooking.
Jaylon casually placed the flowers on the table, took off his suit jacket, rolled up the sleeves of his white shirt, and walked into the kitchen to help.
Hearst was washing vegetables. Jaylon took the vegetables from his hand and said, "I'll do it."
Hearst directly handed over the work to him and walked out of the kitchen.
Jaylon washed the vegetables while paying attention to Reina's
movements. He couldn't help but ask, "Didn't you say that the dinner was made for two people?" Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Reina was peeling fruits for decoration and casually replied, "It was an impromptu idea."
In fact, she was afraid that it would be embarrassing if Jaylon and she stayed alone.
Right now, she was still a little resistant to him. With two more people, the atmosphere would not be so stiff.
Jaylon did not ask any more questions and focused on washing vegetables.
Suddenly, an obvious gasp came from Reina.
Jaylon turned his head and saw that Reina's finger had been cut by a knife,
and blood beads were seeping out.
Jaylon was worried and strode over to hold her hand.
Reina said coldly, "Are you going to suck my finger to stop the blood?"
Jaylon paused.
To please Reina, he had watched a lot of romantic dramas recently, and the male lead usually did this.
But Reina did not seem to like it very much.
"No, I want to help you wash it," he said in a deep voice. Then he asked casually, "Don't you like that?"
Reina replied, "No, the saliva is very dirty."
"Actually, I think so too," Jaylon agreed.
Reina was speechless.
The atmosphere during dinner was quite harmonious. After the meal, Jaylon was afraid that Reina would get annoyed if he stayed for too long, so he washed the dishes and left.
After chatting with Reina for a while, Anaya also left with Hearst.
On the way back, Anaya received a message from Silvia.
Since Silvia went abroad, they didn't contact each other frequently, but
every time they talked, there was no feeling of alienation. Their relationship had always been very good.
Silvia sent Anaya a photo of the plane ticket, saying that the public welfare
organization she attended would send her a representative to visit the country for an exchange, so she would return next week. Silvia would come to Anaya and ask Anaya if it was convenient.
Anaya immediately agreed, and then she was a little worried.
Anaya texted her: "Aren't you afraid that Bryant will see you?"
It took two minutes before Silvia replied: "My dad sent a bodyguard to follow me. It's fine. I won't act alone these days."
Silvia originally didn't want to participate in this event, but she had always wanted to find time to come back and meet up with Anaya, so she agreed.
Anaya was still worried and replied: "You can stay at my house for the next few days. It's safer."
Although the Tirrell family had declined and Bryant was no longer as
aggressive as before, it was better to be careful.
Bryant had nothing now. If he went on an extreme way and wanted to die
with Silvia, then it would be troublesome.
Silvia replied: "Okay."
Two days later, Reina received the list of the company she had worked with
before.
This time, she needed to translate the document online, and she did not
need to go to the company. She could just send the email directly to the
person in charge.
When she translated to the end, she found that the last page of the document was missing, and the content stopped abruptly. So she sent a
message to the person in charge to ask.
But there was no reply, and Reina was a little anxious.
The person in charge said that they needed to get a translation draft before
three in the afternoon, and now there were only two hours left.
Reina was worried about delaying the progress, so she changed her clothes
and went directly to the company, ready to do the work there.
After she arrived at the company, she went directly to the office of the
person in charge.
There were many documents in the office. When the person in charge saw Reina, he was slightly stunned. "Reina, why are you here?"
Reina explained, "The last page of the document you sent me this morning
is missing, and you said that you needed it during the meeting at three in the afternoon. So I came over to get the original document."
The person in charge frowned and seemed to be a little puzzled. "A meeting at three? I just came back from a meeting. What are you..."
Then he suddenly thought of something. "You're right. I forgot about it.
"I have to go to a meeting later, and I'll send you the original."
Reina felt that his attitude was a little strange, but she did not think too
much about it. Then she quietly waited for him to turn on the computer to
look for information.
The person in charge explained as he did it, "There was a meeting just now. My phone was muted, and I haven't checked it yet. I'm so sorry."
"It's fine." Reina sat down on the sofa. "Do you have two meetings in the
afternoon?"
"Yes." He nodded heavily.
He soon found the document that he had sent to Reina this morning and
sent the last page to her again. He then said, "It's done. You can go back to
work."
Reina said, "You need the information at three o'clock, so I'll translate it and
give it to you here."
She could do it on her phone, though it was not as convenient as a
computer.
The man nodded casually. "Okay, I will take you to the reception room. It's
quiet there."
"Okay."
The content on the last page of the information was short, and Reina only
spent less than ten minutes getting it done.
She sorted out the document and sent it to the email of the person in
charge. After everything was done, she went to his office and was about to
say goodbye before leaving.
At the end of the corridor, the person in charge had his back to her and was
talking to someone on the phone.
Reina did not want to eavesdrop and was about to leave.
Just as she took a step forward, she heard him say, "Mr. Malpas."
Although Reina couldn't hear the content, she heard these two words.
She paused in her steps. Thinking of the strange attitude of the person in charge, she suddenly realized something.
She understood why this company invited a pregnant woman like her to work, and why it always ensured her workload.
She had felt it was strange before, but today, she finally figured it out.
For a moment, Reina felt complicated.
Jaylon was probably worried that if he gave her a job directly, she would
treat it as charity. In that way, he would hurt her sensitive self-esteem, so he used this kind of roundabout way to help her.
She was sensitive, and he changed his way of doing things to help her.
When Reina reached the gate of the company, she saw a car parked by the
side of the road.
It was Jaylon's car.
Probably because she had discovered that he often drove a taxi to follow her a few days ago, he decided not to disguise himself anymore.
Reina hesitated for a while before walking to the side of the car and
knocking on the window.
Jaylon slowly opened the window, revealing his cold and handsome face.
After keeping silent for a long time, Reina suddenly asked him with a smile, "Sir, would you like to give me a ride?"
