After Serenity pushed the trolley into the building, a receptionist greeted her. The receptionist only asked Serenity for her name and did not even ask her to register. She even took the initiative to help Serenity press the elevator button. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
All this caused Serenity to gradually come to a certain conclusion. When she arrived at the specified address,
a tall woman
professional–looking attire came over and said, “Miss Lewis? I’m the one who ordered the food. You can put it down here. Please take these two sets to the CEO’s office.”
Serenity’s heart sank. Her questions had been answered.
The CEO’s office. Jackson was the CEO of Valor Group, so did that mean she was gonna take the two sets of takeout to Jackson’s office?
Serenity picked up the takeouts and went to the CEO’s office. In front of the dark wonden door, she took a deep breath before knocking on the door twice.
“Come in.” A valce came from the inside.
Serenity opened the door and walked in. She saw Jackson sitting at the desk with his head down, reading some documents.
“Your takeout is here. I’ll put it on the coffee table,” Serenity said and pursed her lips.
Jackson raised his head and saw Serenity walking to the coffee table to put down the takeout, “Why are you in such a hurry to leave?” he asked. He stood up, went around the desk and walked over to her.
“I have to go back to the restaurant to deliver other orders,” she replied.
“Have you had lunch?” He suddenly asked out of the blue.
She froze and blinked as his question caught her by surprise.
“Looks like you haven’t. Let’s have lunch together. I want to try the food that your restaurant makes,” he said. He pulled her to the sofa and pressed down on her shoulders to make her sit
She instinctively tried to stand back up, but the force on her shoulders made that impossible.
“You…” She glared at him.
“What? You don’t like to eat with me?” he asked with a smirk.
“I don’t have time,” she said.
“Really?” A dangerous glint crept into his eyes. “In that case, maybe I should return all these takeouts.”
Serenity suddenly realized with a jolt that the person in front of her was Jackson Valor!
A man like him would not accept rejection gracefully. If he returned the order, it would be a huge loss for Clara
Moreover, if he decided to go after the restaurant, Clara’s little restaurant might go out of business.
“Just lunch?” she asked after she calmed down a little.
Jackson smiled, “Of course. What else can we do?”
He removed his hands from her shoulders and opened the takeout lug on the coffee table.
His long and slender fingers were very nice to look at. Even the shapes of his fingernails were pretty.
Hands like that, even when they were just opening a plastic bag, were aesthetically pleasing and eye– catching. He took out the two sets of meals, helped her break apart her disposable chopsticks and handed them to her.
