NovelEnglishJonah stepped into the office, where Jeremy was already waiting. "Let's go. The meeting's about to start," Jonah
said.
Jeremy gave him a quick once-over and pointed at his neck. "Mr. Pilsner, do you want to cover that hickey?"
Jonah glanced at his reflection in the mirror. The mark Hailey had left on his neck last night was still clearly
visible.
He raised an eyebrow, looking rather pleased. "No need to cover it. Let's go."
With Jeremy in tow, Jonah strode out of the office.
Employees standing nearby straightened at once, greeting him with a chorus of respectful "Good morning, Mr.
Pilsner."
He didn't break stride as he made his way toward the conference room, his steps calm and confident.
The moment he passed, the whispers started.
"Did you see the hickey on his neck? Oh my God, someone left a mark on him!"
"The meeting was supposed to start at 9:00 am. It got pushed back. | heard the execs were all waiting because
he was... entertaining someone in his office. They just woke up, apparently."
"No way. I'm already imagining the whole scene in my head!"
"| bet it was one hell of a night."
The gossip spread like wildfire.

As Jeremy walked out, Hailey noticed several employees outside craning their necks, trying to sneak a look at
her. Everyone was eager to know who Jonah's future wife would be.
Her cheeks flushed with embarrassment. She had no idea why Jonah had brought her to his company.
Now the entire office knew, and he clearly wasn't trying to keep it quiet.
Hailey lowered her gaze and began eating. Just then, a soft ringtone chimed from her phone. A call was coming
in.
It was Ewan again.
She answered his call. "Ewan, this is the last tI'm picking up. I'm blocking your number after this. You've
seriously crossed the line."
With a low voice, Ewan replied, "You were with Jonah all night,

"No. I'm not meeting you, and | haven't forgotten what you did to my family."
"Are you sure about that? Don't you want to know what really happened to Jonah's face?"
Hailey's heart skipped a beat. She
had asked Jonah about his face more than once, but he had always avoided giving her a straight answer. s
Something about it didn't sit right with her. She knew there was a story behind it.
"Ewan, you know what happened to his face?" she asked.
"lI do."
"Then tell me!"
"I will. But only if we talk face to face."
Ewan wanted to meet her in person.
