Chapter 92

Chapter 92 “Crap!”

Naomi hurriedly got out of the bed and put on her slippers before rushing downstairs. She saw Jack inhis suit, preparing to head out.

“Wait!”

The man stopped in his tracks, turning back to look at the girl in the elevator.

She still wore the nightgown from last night. She looked like a sprite from the mountains. The way shelooked like she had just woken up really... made him want to bully her.

Only... 1 Jack‘s gaze fell on all that skin that Naomi revealed, and he saw Sean‘s dumbfounded look. Hesuddenly felt a tinge of unhappiness.

“Turn around!”

The man suddenly exclaimed at Sean with authority. The temperature around them dropped to freezing,causing Sean to hurriedly turn around.

“Put on your clothes!“.

Naomi looked down, finally realizing she had run out in her pajamas.

However, that was not the important point. “I‘ll get changed right now. Wait for me. Grandpa wants me tobe your assistant and go to work with you.” Jack raised an eyebrow. “You?”

What was Grandpa doing now?

“Please, I‘ll be ready in three minutes!”

Naomi walked a few steps forward and stopped in front of Jack. Her tone was incredibly pitiful. Yet, herstomach decided to cry out at that inopportune moment.

Sean‘s back faced the two of them as he cursed in his heart.

Jack was an incredibly principled man. He would absolutely not allow Old Mister Hough to pull himaround like that.

One second, two seconds, three seconds. “Fine, go eat your breakfast,” Jack responded slowly. He evenwent to sit by the dining table to wait for her. Sean was stunned. They clearly had an urgent meeting thatmorning. Jack had never been late before!

‘Sir, where are your principles?‘

In the end, Sean shut his mouth tightly, not daring to say or ask anything. “Fine, I‘ll be quick!” Naomilooked up and rushed upstairs to get changed like the wind. When they ate, she was worried that Jackwould change his mind, so she wolfed down her food. Jack had even patiently pushed over a glass ofmilk. “Slow down. You don‘t need to rush.” Sean rolled his eyes while he stood by the side. No need torush? They were already ten minutes late for the meeting. Naomi finished her breakfast, and she couldfinally head to work. However, she was still thinking about taking Jack‘s pulse. When they got into thecar, she deliberately acted like she had lost her footing and took the chance to grab Jack‘s wrist.

“Ah!”

The man subconsciously raised his arm, allowing her to grab his wrist. She had just been about to feel itin detail when the man pulled his hand away immediately. He looked at her with a stern and calm gaze.“Don‘t dilly–dally.”

“Oh.”

Naomi cursed in his heart. If she had not been trying to cure him quietly, who would want to grab hishand?!

Naturally, Jack did not know what she was thinking. Nevertheless, he gave her a deep and meaningfullook

After getting into the car, he kept his distance even more than usual.

Naomi idly toyed with the laces on her dress, feeling frustrated. She should not have agreed to Grandpaso easily.

She was stuck.

Trying to diagnose that old man... was the most challenging task in the world!

After an hour, the car arrived at the Hough Corp building. The door opened, and Naomi got out of thecar. The entire building was designed like a building in a science fiction movie. It had a modern andadvanced aura. All the divisions seemed to be clearly sectioned off, and there were many people, but itwas still hushed.

Everyone seemed to be intent on doing their own jobs. It was as if the place was a complicated andmassive yet incredibly efficient machine. Everyone would immediately greet Jack with respect when theysaw him. Their expressions

had a deep reverence to him.

Naomi‘s heartbeat pounded quickly. It was a top–tier corporation!

She sneakily snuck a glance at Jack. A man at work was even more stern and earnest. He looked ... alittle handsome.
