Chapter 38 Banquet
“Well, Jessica kinda impressed me. She actually pleased you without having sex with you? Incredible.
How did she do that?” Felix flipped a cigarette toward Lorenzo as he walked over in pajamas.
“Do I look pleased?” he lit up the cigarette and took a big whiff.
“Your face shows me everything.” Felix answered.
Indeed, it was something pleasing for Lorenzo since Jessica was feeling jealous for another girl
answering her call on his phone.
“Sir, may I come in?” a familiar voice sounded outside the door.
“Come in.” He answered coldly.
“Sir, what can I do for you?” Levi drove himself here from the office building as soon as he got the
message. He had been nervous and worried on his way, afraid if he would be blamed for making
mistakes.
“Hana answered my phone before getting my permission. Why don’t you tell me that?” he turned to This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
look at Levi, his assistant.
“Did she inflict heavy financial damage on the company because of that?” Levi couldn’t help sweating.
If that was the case, he would be doomed.
“Hey, Lorenzo, don’t beat around the bush. It ain’t funny to make it so scary. Levi, don’t sweat it. It was
just because his wife got annoyed and jealous for that call. So he had to find himself a place to vent out
That’s why he stayed here for a few days.” Felix answered while breathing out some smoke.
Hearing that, Levi was stunned with his eyes wide open. He stared at Lorenzo with disbelief. As far as
he knew about his boss, he had been an outstanding man dominating the business world. Never had
he expected that Lorenzo was actually henpecked at the same time.
“Sir, Hana wanna have a talk with you. Now she probably…” before Levi finished, someone knocked
the door. As Lorenzo nodded, he hurried to open it.
“Ms. Hana, it’s getting late. Is there something important you wanna talk about with Mr. Fletcher?” Levi
was overwhelmed with bad feelings when seeing her.
“It’s not about business. I know Mr. Fletcher has been staying out of home during these days and he
rarely pays attention to diet. So I am here to bring him some nutritious food.”
Hana was born to be alluring with nice body shape. She even dressed up herself and hunted for a
chance tonight. For most of the guys in the world, they might find it hard to stay sober when facing her
ravishing look at this moment.
“Hey…wait…” bad feelings surged up more violently when he saw her dressing like that while carrying
a lunch box to walk in. Out of the worry that he would make the same mistake once again, he stopped
her outside the door.
“Mr. Fletcher, Ms. Hana…she just said that she brought you some food she cooked in case the food
here can’t suffice your appetite…” Levi stammered nervously.
“No wonder Jessica got annoyed. What a considerate staff of yours! She was even concerned about
your diet.” Felix raised his head to look at Lorenzo sitting near him. What he meant sounded quite
obvious.
As a man with unparalleled privilege, Lorenzo had seen all kinds of ingratiation, including those ladies
hungry for a one-night stand with him.
So he had been used to dealing with such occasion.
“Tell her to leave the food here and she is free to leave now.” Lorenzo said coldly.
“But…” Levi wondered if he was mistaken. But he didn’t dare to dissuade Lorenzo. So he nodded and
walked over to the door.
He took over the box and asked her to leave.
“You are playing with fire. Are you trying to piss her even more?” Felix frowned to look at Lorenzo.
He turned to look outside the window. Actually, he always viewed girls too troublesome to get along
with, especially those in relationship. However, there was a subtle change happening to him ever since
Jessica’s tantrum had been lasting during these days. Actually, he didn’t get annoyed at all. Instead, he
found her more adorable somehow.
Jessica impressed him with brilliance when she stayed reasonable and she looked tough while in the
midst of tantrum.
Though she was burning with jealousy, she still appeared too stubborn to admit it. So he decided to try
a more aggressive trick to allow her a clearer understanding about this relationship.
…
After the rehearsal for wedding and bachelor party, Preston and Juliette arrived timely.
Jessica was the first to be noticed by Juliette, who asked for her attendance in person.
Jessica agreed, telling her that she had been fully ready for her wedding.
“Jessica, it’s time for me to do the annual praying for the family in the church during these days. It may
take about a week. Now you and Lorenzo were just newly married couple. Maintaining a pleasing
marriage should be prior to business. As the future hostess of the family, you have to shoulder the
responsibility to teach him this rule. And don’t spoil him.” Lorenzo’s grandma made a call to Jessica
before setting off to the church.
So Jessica then called Lorenzo to inform him of the schedule of his grandma.
But he only replied casually, sounding a bit careless.
“Alright, that’s it.” After a brief notice, Jessica was about to hang up. But then she captured a familiar
voice through the phone.
“Mr. Fletcher, sorry to bother you. I am confused about this part in the annual report of marketing. If you
have an idea, could you please spare me a few tips?” she actually drawled while speaking. The sweet
voice sounded coquettish.
“Get closer to me. Look here and listen, let me tell you what to do.” Lorenzo’s deep voice sounded
husky and gentle with patience.
“Hey, time to hang up.” Noticing the silence from Jessica, Lorenzo huffed.
“Mr. Fletcher, sorry to disturb your game. Bye!” annoyed, Jessica hung up before Lorenzo continued.
She took a deep breath and chilled herself. Now she had something prior to Lorenzo’s ‘affair’—she
needed to prepare a special gift for Juliette’s wedding.
…
The banquet was arranged in a wine chateau with wonderful view, which was decorated to be as much
resplendent and magnificent as possible.
Juliette, in a crimson night dress inlaid with diamond, looked gorgeous and delicate with curly
hair.
