Chapter 334 Ginny Is In Trouble

+5 Bonus

Due to Alex’s earlier dominating act, Carmen was unable to look him in the eye even after theyreturned home that night. She would feel terrified whenever she glanced at him.

The scene in which he had forced Susan to her death earlier today kept replaying in her mind. It wasboth shocking and traumatizing.

Another reason for her fear was that Alex might not have any money now, but he was still a member ofthe Jefferson family. If there ever came a day when he decided to go back home to inherit his familyassets, the Jennings family would be able to reach a higher social status as well.

All this culminated in Carmen being wary of offending Alex further.

That night, Heather dragged Alex back to their room to sleep. If it were not for his injuries, she wouldhave insisted on them engaging in intimate activities.

As it was, she voluntarily cuddled close to him. Her voice was soft and gentle as she urged him toreconsider inheriting the Jefferson family assets.

In response, he told her he needed rest to recover from his injuries. That enraged her; she huffilymoved over to sleep on her own side of the bed.

The next day, Alex brought Stanley to kindergarten before heading to work.

He had called Jack the day before was told that Shane had come to the office, but he did not make toobig of a fuss. The only one who was affected was Jessica.

With the absence of his two secretaries, Alex felt a little bored.

Because Jessica had resigned and Ginny was on sick leave, he had no secretary for the time being.

Then again, he had been leaving most of the decision–making to Jack recently. There were very fewthings that required his personal input anymore.

Leaning back against the couch, he took out his phone to call Jessica.

“Are you awake yet? Let’s have morning tea together,” Alex asked with a smile.

On the other side of the phone, Jessica was ecstatic that Alex had actually called her.

“Sure! Give me an hour. Wait, no, half an hour!” Jessica hurriedly replied.

“Alright. I’ll wait for you at Amy’s Tea House.”

He heard from Jack that Jessica had resigned because Shane had been bothering her. His plan was toinvite her out for morning tea as an apology. After that, he would also try to convince her to come backto work.

Although she had asked him to wait half an hour, he knew she would likely not arrive until one hourlater,

After all, what woman would not pretty herself before leaving the house?

Alex headed to Jack’s office to pass the time. He asked Jack about the preparation of Galaxy Girls andhow it was progressing. It turned out that things were going smoothly and that they would probably beable to set up advertiser bidding next week. Twenty days later, they would begin officially recording theprogram.

“I’m so sorry, Mr. Jefferson. I was caught in a traffic jam on the way here,” she apologized with a smile.

She was dressed beautifully today and every movement she made was graceful and alluring.

Plenty of gazes followed her wherever she went.

Alex smiled to show he did not mind her arriving late. He waited for her to sit down opposite him beforehe asked, “What would you like to drink?”

“Green tea, please.”

Nodding, he gestured for the waiter to come take their order.

He requested a cup of green tea as well before ordering some pastries and fruits.

“I need to apologize for what happened to you two days ago. My personal affairs had inadvertentlybothered you, and for that, I’m terribly sorry,” he expressed apologetically.

“Mr. Jefferson, what exactly happened? Why is that man suddenly the chairman?”

“Nothing very important. It’s just some personal matters that I’ve already seen to.” Chuckling, Alexcontinued, “Come back to work. I promise it won’t happen again.”

Although disappointed that he refused to tell her the truth, she still nodded.

Soon, their food and drinks arrived and they chatted as they ate.

Just then, Alex’s phone rang. Checking the caller ID, he saw that it was Ginny.

“Mr. Jefferson, please save me! Harry suddenly barged into my home. He’s gone crazy! I’m currentlyhiding in the bathroom. Please come help me!” Ginny’s tearful voice blared through the phone.

Knitting his brows, Alex said, “Send me your location. I’ll be there as quick as I can.” “Alright!” With that,she hung up. Seconds later, he received her location through his WhatsApp.
