CEO's Reborn Wife

This sentence is spot on.

”In that case, we’ll meet in the afternoon.” Jillian Carter sneered and left with her assistant.

”So, why did she suddenly call me? Just to hear me poke at her for a moment of displeasure?” Jane Sampson looked at Coco Edwards, bewildered, ”It’s not like she’s concerned about whether I’ll have lunch or join the afternoon group activities, right?”

”I don’t know.” Coco Edwards was even more confused than Jane Sampson, ”Logically, given your relationship, you both can’t keep pretending to be good friends. You’d think she’d see you and just ignore it, but instead, she calls you out every time she sees you.”

Every time, Jillian Carter wanted to irk Jane Sampson, but in the end, it was Jane who left Jillian fuming.

”Who knows.” Jane Sampson shrugged, ”A woman’s heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea.”

After speaking, Jane Sampson tugged her scarf and looped her arm around Coco Edwards as they headed upstairs.

Coco Edwards didn’t return to her room but stayed in Jane Sampson’s room. Since they were going out in the afternoon, neither of them planned to go out searching for food.

One was flipping through a menu, while the other was browsing the takeaway app, both searching for good food.

Eventually, Jane Sampson silently put down the menu and quietly moved next to Coco Edwards to check out the stuff on her mobile phone.

”Let’s eat this, it looks delicious.” Jane Sampson pointed to a shop Coco Edwards was about to swipe past, ”Look, there are grilled wings, grilled sausages, and grilled chicken legs.”

”There’s even a grilled little Jane, do you want to eat that?” Coco Edwards smacked Jane Sampson’s hand away and ruthlessly swiped past the barbecue shop.

”You’re so scary, do you actually want to grill me? I’m telling my Mr. Black, you’re bullying me~” Jane Sampson sat next to her, biting her lips and looking pitifully at Coco Edwards.

”Go ahead, if you do, my bonus will definitely double this month.” Coco Edwards burst into laughter, ”We can’t eat such unhealthy food. I’ve finally slimmed down, you can’t force me to gain weight again. If Grid doesn’t want me anymore, will you compensate me with a Grid?”

”If he doesn’t want you, I do.” Jane Sampson hugged Coco Edwards, ”Men are pigs, I give you a loving hug.”

”Get off me! With your big heart, your love isn’t worth much anymore. If you can’t make me your only, then don’t easily promise me anything.” Coco Edwards brushed off Jane Sampson’s little paw, asking, ”How about we have rice noodles? The comments look good, should we order from this shop?”

”We’ll listen to our lovely little Coco.” Jane Sampson smiled at Coco Edwards, protesting once more, ”Anyway, I said I wanted barbecue, and you didn’t let me have it.”

”Don’t look at me with those eyes like I’m a tyrant, because I’m not. Your Mr. Black is.” Coco Edwards swiftly ordered two sets of rice noodles, then put the phone aside, away from Jane Sampson’s restless little paws.

After having lunch, the two of them rested together for a while. At 1:30, everyone gathered at the hotel backdoor on time.

When Jane Sampson arrived, Brooke Black and the General Manager were chatting with Chairman Duffman, and the mood seemed good.

”Auntie.” Jane Sampson walked over to them and naturally looped her arm around Brooke Black’s arm, ”Are you going with us in the afternoon too?”

”Of course, why wouldn’t I? Since you’re going, I definitely should.” Brooke Black smiled. She had met Chairman Duffman at the doorway, and he invited her. Since she had no plans for the afternoon, she agreed. Brooke regarded the afternoon activity as a business networking opportunity.
