Gan Yuan felt a wave of annoyance, "That little brat betrayed me again?"
"Xiaotang didn’t betray you, I figured it out myself." Huangfu Jue raised his hand to tidy up her hair, "That little guy has always been firmly on your side!"
Gan Yuan smiled, "Of course, that’s my son."
As he smoothed out the wrinkles in her clothes, Huangfu Jue couldn’t help but remind her again.
"Be careful on the road."
"I know, you get some sleep!" She kissed his cheek and reached for her backpack to leave, but the man pulled her back into a light embrace, "Take good care of yourself and the child."
Pattting his back comfortingly, she smiled and straightened up from his embrace, opening the door.
"Remember to call me back."
Huangfu Jue called after her.
"I’m not a child!" Gan Yuan turned around, smiled at him, "Get some rest, I’ll send you a message first thing in the morning."
Waving at him, she quickly walked to the fire exit and turned in.
After quickly descending the stairs, Gan Yuan took a taxi back to the GM Building. She went back to the top-floor office familiarly, opened the door and, not seeing Jessica, let out a sigh of relief. She locked the documents she brought back in the drawer and after a simple clean-up of the office, took out her phone to see that she had two missed calls, both from Moses.
She hurriedly dialed the number.
"What’s up?" Moses’ voice was concerned on the other end.
"I just accidentally fell asleep and didn’t hear it."
"Still at the office?"
"Yeah, traveling back and forth is such a waste of time, I’ll just rest here tonight, it’s a good chance to sort things out thoroughly."
"Don’t work too late, I’ve got something here and won’t be able to return until tomorrow, you should get some rest early."
After hanging up, Gan Yuan let out a sigh, she had been too preoccupied with being intimate with Huangfu Jue just now to hear his call; fortunately, he was tied up and hadn’t rushed back. Otherwise, if he had turned up at the office, her lie would have been exposed.
Sitting back on the sofa, Gan Yuan raised her hand to tidy her hair, she would have to be extra careful in the future.
Leaning against the sofa, she raised her hand to sort out her hair, remembering what Huangfu Jue had told her previously, her brows furrowed slightly.
Marquis Smith really had great ambition, actually intending for his daughter to run for president. No wonder he had been making things difficult for her before; there was this reason behind it.
It seemed that securing the Liberal Party’s nomination wouldn’t be easy, after all, the Liberal Party wouldn’t nominate two candidates. In the end, only one between Annie and herself could possibly represent the Liberal Party in the election.
If she wanted to seize this opportunity, she would have to defeat Annie.
Having been in the Liberal Party for many years, Marquis Smith must have a number of supporters; to defeat her, she would need to prepare thoroughly. Tomorrow, she would have to have a good talk with Dolly.
Dawn broke, and the rising sun lit up the earth, the forests, and Jessica’s disheveled hair resting on her shoulders.
She blinked her slightly swollen eyelids, opened her eyes, and looked at the green early summer fields before her. It took her a while to come to her senses and realize where she was.
She sat up in shock, grabbed the blanket covering her, and seeing that her clothes were still neatly on, she let out a sigh of relief, then turned her head to see Will, leaning against the car seat covered with his jacket, and she bolted upright.
See you tomorrow, Little Princesses
