Chapter 10

I was a little surprised. I looked at Justin Davis and smiled before answering the phone. "Hello?"

Ben Roberts' low and sexy voice came through the phone, "I've asked someone to prepare meal for you. Why didn't you go there?"

In order to make Justin Davis give up completely, I had to show him my killing skill. "Honey, I'll take good care of myself. I'm eating with my colleagues."

As soon as I said that, there was a long silence on the other end of the phone, so silent that I thought Ben Roberts had hung up.

After a long time, Ben Roberts' low and deep voice came from the phone, "I won't be back until Thursday. Take care of yourself."

"Okay." I feel relieved secretly. Fortunately, Ben Roberts will be back in a few days. He should have forgotten about it when he comes back.

"Jane Dench, are you married?"

As soon as I hung up the phone, Justin Davis asked.

I nodded and said, "I don't think it's a strange thing for me to get married at my age."

Justin Davis didn't know what to say. He just smiled dejectedly and said, "I wish you happiness."

I said thank you with a smile and appreciated my wisdom in my heart.

Let Justin Davis know that I'm married. We can work together as before and we won't be embarrassed to meet each other.

But when I was in a daze at night, I felt someone sitting next to me.

I was scared to wake up in an instant.

I sat up all of a sudden and looked at the man sitting by the bed in surprise. "Didn't you say that you would come back on Thursday?"

However, Ben Roberts replied indifferently, "I have something urgent to deal with."

After talking to me on the phone , he asked his assistant to book a flight back at night and fly back to work.

Thinking of the call, I scratched my head with a red face. "Have you had dinner? Do you want me to cook something for you?"

"Okay, let's go together."

When Ben Roberts finished his work, it was eight o'clock in the evening. Then he came back without stopping for a moment. It was already two o'clock in the morning. There was a meeting at 9 o'clock in the morning, so he had to go back as soon as he finished the meal.

I cooked noodles for him. After thinking for a while, I went back to the kitchen.

After eating the noodles, Ben Roberts came in and asked, "what are you busy with?"

I turned around and said to him with a smile, "I made some cakes with seaweed last night. You take them with you later. I'm hungry on the way."

I know he is trying to be a good husband and I also want to be a good wife, so I will do something insignificant for him with my heart and try to be a considerate and virtuous wife.

Ben Roberts raised his hand and rubbed my head. "Thank you for your consideration."

"You said that a couple should take care of each other." I slapped his hand away and curled my lips. "Don't rub my head all the time."

Ben Roberts' sexy thin lips curled up slightly and pulled me into his arms. "What about this?"

My face flushed immediately. I was so anxious to push him, but he held me more tightly. "Honey, stop it."

After a long time,

"I'm going. Take care of yourself at home."

"Wait a minute." I finally escaped from his arms. I put the steamed cakes into the lunch box, and then put it in a bag. "You take them to eat on the way."

Ben Roberts smiled as he took the bag. He said in a gentle voice, "wait for me at home."

Blushing, I nodded, "yes."

Ben Roberts rubbed my head and said, "then I'll go."

I saw him out and watched him enter the elevator.

After seeing Ben Roberts off, I didn't feel sleepy anymore. I just got up and went for a morning run. Then I went to the company in advance.

It took me more than half an hour to get to Kate Miller's office.

She didn't return to her seat. Instead, she leaned over to me and said mysteriously, "Jane Dench, do you know that Joseph Pratt from the public relations department has been fired?"

My heart jolted and my face darkened.

Kate Miller didn't notice that and continued, "I heard that she seemed to have done something to Mr.Roberts. Mr.Roberts personally ordered to fire her."

I guess Ben Roberts must have sent someone to spread this news on purpose. He doesn't want me to be involved in this matter.

It's not that I don't want Joseph Pratt to leave the company, but that I don't want her to leave because of my relationship with Ben Roberts.

I want to climb up on my own ability. But now, things were going in the direction I didn't want.

Nora Kim rushed over and asked, "Jane Dench, how is your first draft of the business plan?"

"I'll try harder and get out of here tomorrow."

Nora Kim said, "I don't have so much time left. I said that I have to hand it in tonight, or there will be no chance for me to get this project."

I bit my lips and said, "manager, I'll try my best to hand this business plan before I get off work."

Nora Kim said, "if you need any help, ask Kate Miller and Justin Davis to help you. The flight to the airport will be set off from the company at nine o'clock in the evening. You have to go there and hand over the document in person before that time."

I nodded, "okay."

Three days is a short period of time. Now it has been shortened to one and a half days, but I haven't flinched.

I can do it!

I was so busy that I didn't have lunch or water. When Ben Roberts called, I just said a few words perfunctorily and then hung up.

Fortunately, I have finished the first draft of the business proposal before five o'clock in the afternoon.

After saying goodbye to Nora Kim, I left the Company in advance and called Royal Lee, the general manager of the Star company.

When I arrived, Mr Lee was more enthusiastic to me than before. He not only praised me for my good writing of the plan, but also said a lot of nice words to me. I feel something is wrong, but I can't resist. Royal Lee appointed me to be in charge of the Star Company project and the sudden change of attitude.

As soon as Lee left, i received a call from Jena Blethyn. She asked me to have barbecue with her. After thinking for a while, I agreed.

It's cold outside. The hotpot restaurant and the barbecue restaurant are very popular. As soon as I sat down, Ben Roberts called me.

I took a look at Jena Blethyn and answered the phone with a red face, "have you finished your work?"

"Okay." Ben Roberts snorted and didn't say anything else.

After a while, Ben Roberts still didn't speak. "Do you have anything else to say? If not, I'll hang up."

There was still silence on the other end of the phone. After a while, Ben Roberts said in a low and deep voice, "don't you have something to say to me?"

I was stunned, and then said seriously, "remember to eat when you finish your work. Take care of yourself when you are alone outside."

I think a good wife should say that.

The man on the other end of the phone didn't say anything.

However, Ben Roberts didn't say anything and hung up the phone without saying goodbye. It was the first time that he had been so impolite.

Jena Blethyn frowned and said, "Jane Dench, were you talking to your man just now?"

I looked at the black screen and nodded.

Jena Blethyn continued, "you have been married for a month, right? The two of you are still talking on the phone. Don't tell me, you two haven't even done anything between husband and wife."

My face flushed immediately.

"Jane Dench, what's wrong with you?" Jena Blethyn asked

I rolled my eyes at her and whispered, "it's not that I don't want to. It's just that he has never made this request to me."

Chapter 11

Jena Blethyn had just taken a sip of water and spat it out. She was surprised and said, "he is capable on that aspect, right?"

I waved my hand and said, "don't talk nonsense. He respects me. He said he wouldn't force me to do anything I don't want to do."

Jena Blethyn raised her eyebrows and said meaningfully, "are you two not willing to do that or he is not?"

I don't want to talk about this topic any more, so I immediately distracted Jena Blethyn's attention. "The dishes are served, and I'll roast for you."

But her words made me a little uneasy. Is he a gay? Using a girl as an excuse? I recalled what happened these days and what I had said to Ben Roberts in the past. The more I thought about it, the more I felt that Ben Roberts might be a Gay.

During the whole night and the next two days, as long as I'm free, I'll think about it, which will delay my work.

A few days later,

I didn't know that Ben Roberts had come back. When I came back, i only prepared the food for one person, and the food for Jena Blethyn's dog, Happy.

We were having dinner when Ben Roberts opened the door and came in.

Ben Roberts glanced at us coldly without saying anything.

I swallowed the food in a hurry and explained, "I didn't know you were back, so I didn't wait for you. The dog is Jena Blethyn's. she has gone to the United States for further study. I'll help raise it for a while. I hope you don't mind."

Ben Roberts changed his shoes and still didn't say anything.

I guess Ben Roberts doesn't like Happy, nor does he like me not to discuss with him in advance. So I can't help holding Happy tighter. He was neither warm nor cold the whole night, which made me a little sad.

I tossed and turned the whole night. The next morning, I got up early and planned to send Happy back to Jena Blethyn's residence.

When I arrived at the dinning hall with Happy in my arms, Ben Roberts was already there. He looked up at me and motioned for me to sit.

Jane Dench's POV

Looking at the man and the dog in front of him, Ben Roberts said after a long time, "since it is raised by you, I will try to accept it."

"Thank you!" I didn't expect him to say that. I'm so happy that I can stay with Happy again.

He didn't say anything more. He had breakfast elegantly and went to work as usual.

I wanted to talk to him several times, but in the end, I didn't say anything. This man is so cold. At noon, I didn't go to Lily restaurant for lunch because I had to rearrange the business plan of the Star Company project.

In the afternoon, he also called me, but I was in a meeting with my colleagues, so I didn't answer it. When I remembered, it was almost time to get off work.

Ben Roberts's Pov

Why didn't she answer my phone? Did I do anything wrong.

When it's almost time to get off work, I called Ms.Sara, "what makes you women angry?"

Smart as Sara Hollander was, she immediately guessed that there must be something wrong between Jane Dench and me. "A woman doesn't need any reason to be angry."

I raised my eyebrows.

She should have ignored me last night, and today she protested in a way of ignoring me.

Sara Hollander continued, "but women are soft hearted. As long as you coax her, she will be fine."

I heard the answer from Sara Hollander. It's a little difficult. I've never tried to coax a woman in my life, and I don't know how to coax her.

"What should I do?"

Sara Hollander smiled, "girls like romance. For example, sending her flowers or inviting her to dinner is enough."

I raised my eyebrows and looked at Sara Hollander. Sara Hollander immediately said, "I know an air revolving restaurant, which is a place many couples love to go. Unfortunately, this restaurant belongs to the richest man. Let's book the whole restaurant tonight."

I'm very satisfied with her arrangement. I nodded at her with a smile. In fact, I don't like to waste my time on how to coax women. But it's Jane Dench, and I don't hate it.

I had to work overtime until 7 o'clock in the evening today. But she didn't contact me. Maybe she was still working overtime? Let me have a look.

10 minutes has passed. I've been watching her here for ten minutes, but she still didn't notice me. Jane Dench's POV

The result of the whole afternoon was that my project was finally perfect. It was 7 o'clock in the evening. Oh my God, did he go home for dinner? Thinking of this, I hurriedly packed my backpack and looked up.

"Why are you here?"

As soon as I raised my head, I saw a tall figure standing in front of my office, and his eyes fell on me quietly.

Out of instinct, I looked around and found no one around. Then I asked again, "Why are you here?"

"Are you waiting for me to cook at home?""I'm sorry. I forgot it when I was busy. How about we go out and have some food?"

Seeing that he didn't say anything, I said, "it's my treat."

But he said nothing and grabbed me away.

He is still in the company. Although no one is here at the moment, there is a monitor in the company. It's not good to be seen. I wanted to get rid of him, but he pulled me more tightly.

I was caught in the car. I was a little nervous and his expression was a little bad.

I moved to the door subconsciously.

But he suddenly turned sideways, which scared me to dodge instinctively. My head hit the door with a bang, and I cried out in pain.

"Don't move!" Seeing that I hit my head, he looked even worse. He fastened the seat belt for me quickly and said, "come over and let me have a look."

"I..." I wanted to refuse, but I didn't dare. So I had to get close to him with a red face.

It turned out that he just wanted to help me buckle up, and I was woolgathering again.

Ah, ah, ah, why am I so shameless!

I felt that he was pulling my hair away and looking at me carefully to see if I was hurt.

The next second, I felt something was wrong. His slender fingers were stroking my face.

I was so scared that I even stopped breathing. My heart thumped. I closed my eyes and didn't dare to look at him.

However, after a long time, he didn't take the next step. I blinked my eyes to see what he was doing.

I saw his handsome face approaching me. He kissed me!

Although it was just a slight touch, he let go of me and said in his incomparably attractive sexy voice, "is that enough?"

"What?" It took me a long time to realize what he meant. He thought I was waiting for his kiss.

"Ahhh!"

I clenched my fists to resist the impulse to hit him.

Since he thought I was waiting for him to kiss, then I unfastened the seat belt and pounced on him. My lips pressed on his lips for a few seconds, and then quickly left. I wanted to sit back and buckle up the seat belt. I wanted to pretend that nothing had happened, but my face couldn't help but become redder.

I don't dare to look at him, but I know he must be snickering. Humph, bad man.

Soon, we arrived at the skyscraper.

I know this place. The revolving restaurant here is very famous. The scenery is very good, and most importantly, it is very expensive!

When I first came to A City, I came here with Jena Blethyn. The ticket to this building alone cost 50 dollars, let alone the price of food. However, there were still many tourists from other cities who came here with tickets.

He threw the car key to the staff and pulled me into the hall.

'it's so weird. Why is there no one today?'?
