NovelEnglishChapter 1823
"Alright, leave it to me!" Jenna sprang up from her chair, full of energy. "I'll take care of Gordon. You and Harold
head to the party!"
"Jenna, maybe we shouldn't-" Sophie started, but Jenna cut her off. "Oh, con! Trust me, when have I ever let
you down?" Jenna grabbed Sophie's arm, pulling her to her feet.
Before Sophie could even think of protesting, Jenna whisked her out to the car. "Relax, Sophie. Gordon's a friend,
he'll listen to me!"
Just then, Harold showed up, right on time. He found the two women in the middle of a whirlwind. "What are you
two up to?" he asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Hey, Harold, you've got your driver's license, right? Take my car and get Sophie to the party." Jenna tossed him
her keys before he could get a word in edgewise.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHarold glanced at the keys, bewildered. What was all this about?
"Go on!" Jenna urged, nudging him along. Harold shrugged and turned to Sophie. "Alright, let's get going."
Sophie kept glancing back at Jenna as they walked away, not entirely convinced. Jenna just flashed her a
reassuring peace sign.
Half an hour later, at Aldridge Global...
"Mr. Gordon, Mr. Aldridge, Harold..." Jenna put on her most charming smile for Gordon. "I've already said you'd
come. You don't wantto lose face in front of Sophie, do you? You know how much my reputation means to
me. If you makelook bad, I'll never live it down with the younger crowd."
Jenna looked at Gordon with a pleading expression. "We've known each other since we were kids..."
"Ms. Jenna," Gordon replied, his face a mask of neutrality. "I have work to do."
Rick, who had just entered the room, approached Jenna. "Ms. Jenna, Mr. Gordon has a very important meeting
soon. I'll have someone take you to the party."
Jenna's expression darkened seeing that Gordon remained unmoved. "Gordon, what's up with you lately? You
would've gone without a second
thought before. This is
graduation party-she wants you there! Is work really more important than spending twith your fiancée?"
Jenna was baffled by Gordon's behavior. He seemed to be deliberately keeping
his distance from Sophie, something he'd never done before.
"Ms. Jenna, Mr. Gordon really has commitments. Letescort you out," Rick said, stepping forward to guide
Jenna away.
Jenna, her face set in determination, replied, "Fine, Gordon. If you're bold enough not to show up, don't blame
At Jenna's parting words, Gordon's brow furrowed slightly. She spun on her heel and left.
Rick couldn't help but comment, "Sir, are you really going to let Ms. Jenna walk out like that? She might actually
do it."
Jenna was known for her wild
streak. Back during her tabroad,
she'd had a revolving door of
boyfriends and had seen it all.
Letting Sophie hang out with Jenna could only spell chaos.
Gordon responded calmly, "Let her be."
