Nolan Moore saw Jane Quinlan eying Evie Larkin at his side.
Her look made Nolan Moore somewhat displeased to begin with.
That look was as if she was watching animals in a zoo.
He stepped forward to block her view.
"Let me introduce you, this is your colleague from the assistant department, Evie Larkin.
She is in charge of following up on this business deal.
Therefore, she is joining us on this business trip.
Evie, this is my assistant, Jane."
Evie Larkin nodded at Jane Quinlan: "Jane, nice to meet you."
Jane Quinlan’s lips curled into a broad smile.
There’s definitely a problem, you can tell from the introduction.
This woman must be quite important to him.
Because the tone was clearly different, and, this woman got a full name, while I’m just Jane?
Anyone with clear eyes could see Nolan Moore has designs on that woman, right?
Although Jane Quinlan’s mind was racing, she didn’t forget to greet the other party.
"Miss Larkin, hello."
She reached out to shake hands with Evie Larkin, but Nolan Moore raised his hand to block it.
He handed his bank card and ID to Jane Quinlan: "Go buy the tickets, Evie, give her your ID."
Jane Quinlan took them, and Evie Larkin quickly handed her ID over to Jane Quinlan: "Thank you, Miss Quinlan."
"Buy first-class tickets."
Of course, Jane Quinlan didn’t wish to be the third wheel next to the two, so she went to dutifully buy tickets.
She bought first-class tickets for Nolan Moore and Evie Larkin, and economy class for herself.
The time was the nearest flight, at three-forty.
Since it was still early, the three went through security together to sit and wait.
Jane Quinlan kept her distance from the two the entire time.
Because it seemed the two were always chatting.
As they chatted, Jane Quinlan excused herself to slip away to the restroom.
She wandered around the airport for almost half an hour, and seeing that it was almost time to board, she leisurely returned.
Upon seeing her return, Nolan Moore said displeasedly: "Why aren’t you waiting for the flight properly, loitering around instead?"
"How does Director Moore know I wasn’t waiting properly.
Do I have to sit there obediently to be considered waiting?"
Hearing her talk back to Nolan Moore, Evie Larkin turned back to glance at her.
Jane Quinlan thought, damn Nolan Moore, letting you trample over me to show off in front of your darling.
I’m not letting you show off this time.
As she talked back, Nolan Moore’s expression became even darker: "Jane Quinlan, if you don’t want to go on the business trip, then get lost.
Don’t throw your little tantrums here with me."
"Director Moore, work is work, but it’s not work time right now.
You can manage your own time reasonably and chat with Miss Larkin.
Am I not allowed to sensibly walk around?
Do I have to sit at your side and listen to your conversation? I’m not that kind of eavesdropping person."
Nolan Moore wanted to lose his temper, but Evie Larkin patted his arm: "Nolan, don’t get angry.
Jane Miss hasn’t said anything wrong.
Sitting here waiting for the flight is not necessarily the best choice.
Plus, we’ll have to sit on the plane later.
Moving around is nice, isn’t it?"
Jane Quinlan became even more certain of her thoughts.
This female assistant called him Nolan.
If it was just a normal relationship, who would call someone by their first name?
Looking at it this way, either they’ve already hooked up or they’re in the process of doing so.
"Evie, don’t side with her.
This woman is just troublesome and deserves a scolding."
"Even if I deserve a scolding, it’s not your place to do it," Jane Quinlan boldly retorted, ready to risk it all.
The more he pranced, the more she wanted to deflate his arrogance in front of his sweetheart.
Let him show off, let him be arrogant.
Evie Larkin became somewhat anxious, and she said to Nolan Moore: "Nolan, please stop.
It’s not a work issue, why should you act this way?
Miss Quinlan, let’s just drop this matter.
We’ll have to work together in Beijing soon.
Being at odds isn’t good, right?"
Jane Quinlan nodded: "Miss Larkin, you’re right, I’ll listen to you."
Nolan Moore glared at her coldly.
Good, what a Jane Quinlan.
Starting from yesterday, had she become an untamed wild horse?
It wasn’t until he got on the plane that Nolan Moore found out Jane Quinlan had bought herself an economy class ticket.
As she walked back to find her seat, Nolan Moore gave her a cold look and sat down in first class with Evie Larkin.
Evie Larkin looked back worriedly: "What’s going on between you and your female assistant.
It feels like you have a grudge or something."
"Just pretend we have a grudge, I just can’t stand the sight of her."
