Chapter 190 A Conversation
The caller was Jennifer.
Without hesitation, Monica answered, “Hello, Miss Fox. Her voice sounded respectful and gentle, as italways did.
“Stanley took Melinda to Navelie. Did you know about it?” Jennifer sighed on the other end of the line
Surprised. Monica replied, “I didn’t know. I only knew he handed his work over to Max. Her heartpricked at the thought. Did they go to Navelie? To the castle estate?
Then, she heard Jennifer’s voice again. “Monica, why don’t you stay at Repulse Bay tonight? Comeover for dinner. There are many things I want to talk to you about.”
Monica’s heart was filled with anxiety, unsure of what Jennifer wanted to discuss. Would Jennifer try topersuade her to give up? But she could only agree. “Okay.”
“I won’t disturb you at work anymore. You can go back to your tasks.” Jennifer hung up the phone.
In the elegantly decorated office, Monica sat down in the chair, holding her phone and being lost incontemplation. She had no idea what Jennifer’s stance was. What did she want to talk to her about?Was she going to apologize? Was she going to ask her to give up Stanley?
No… She couldn’t do that. She couldn’t bear to be separated from Stanley! Only death could part them!
“Miss Keller, Max knocked on the door and entered with a file in his hand. “What’s wrong? You don’tlook well.
“It’s nothing” She regained her composure and quickly returned to her usual self, taking the file fromhim.
Max reported, “A real estate company from Campen actively approached us for cooperation. Afterevaluating various aspects, they believe this project has great development prospects. This is theevaluation report I compiled. Please have a look.”
Monica wasn’t in a rush to read the file. Instead, she looked up at him. “Did Mr. Fox say that during hisabsence, all matters should be handled by me?”
“He handles the major matters himself. You can call or email him for thosenovelxo.com fast update. Forsmaller matters, you can handle them. There’s no need to bother him,” Max answered truthfully.
Bother him?
He could take a country woman on a trip but having to deal with work at the same time is considered abother to him?
Monica felt that Melinda was bad and would eventually ruin Stanley!
She glanced at the project evaluation casually before handing it back to Max. “You can decide on such
matters.
Max sensed her unhappiness. “Alright then.
Watching him leave, Monica felt her mood worsen. Since leaving Repulse Bay, she had felt incredibly
uneasy.
Night fell.
The bright moon hung high among the tree branches, and stars sparkled in the sky. It was a peacefuland beautiful night.
In the courtyard of Repulse Bay, the plants were covered with a layer of moonlight. Some bloomingflowers appeared even more vibrant as they collectively emanated a charming beauty.
Inside the brightly lit kitchen, Jennifer not only selected the recipes herself but also supervised thecooking. “No garlic for Monica, remember!”
Without wearing a mask or gloves, it was as if she had removed her shackles. She could finally wearher favorite clothes, and her temper had improved greatly.
The servants brought out the dishes, which looked sumptuous, but Jennifer had little appetite. Whatwas wrong? She pondered for a moment but couldn’t dwell on it for long-
“Miss Fox, Miss Keller has arrived.” Stephanie came to report.
Soon, Monica, wearing a red dress and high heels, entered the dining room. “Miss Fox.”
“Wash your hands and sit here. Jennifer smiled at her. “We can have dinner now. These are all yourfavorite dishes.”
“Okay.” Monica was familiar with the place and washed her hands before sitting across from Jennifer.
Faced with the table full of delicious dishes, she felt her stomach growling. “It looks so tasty! It’s makingme hungry.”
“Let’s eat!” Jennifer also picked up her cutleries.
Since entering the room, Monica had been observing Jennifer’s expression. So far, what she observedwas still acceptable. However, that didn’t rule out the possibility of frank remarks after an elaborate
setup.
Dinner was enjoyable and relaxed as only work-related topics were discussed.
After dinner, Monica took the initiative. “Miss Fox, shall I take a few portraits of you? I have professionalcamera equipment in my car, and I studied photography before.”
Stephanie knew Monica was trying to get closer to Jennifer and was deliberately pleasing her.
Jennifer agreed in a good mood. That would be great!
