Chapter 238 Jenson smiled softly as he looked at Suzanne, his tone warm and gentle.
"Suzanne, you've been so busy at work lately. I noticed you haven't been replying to my messages." He stood up and politely pulled out a chair for her, the picture of a perfect gentleman. Suzanne glanced at him but said nothing as she sat down.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJenson had been reaching out to her more frequently these past few days, and Suzanne knew it wasn't for no reason. She didn't bother with small talk and cut straight to the point. She asked, "What do you want?" She wasn't naive enough to think Seline had gone through all this trouble just so Jenson could have coffee with her.
Suzanne's cold demeanor didn't sit well with Jenson. A flicker of irritation crossed his eyes, but he quickly masked it with a smile. He sat back down and slid a cup of coffee toward her.
"It's been a while since we've spent ttogether," he said smoothly. "How about dinner tonight?" In the past, all it took was a dinner invitation to win Suzanne over. Jenson assumed it would work this ttoo, but he was wrong.
"No thanks," Suzanne replied flatly.

Jenson's smile faltered. He leaned back in his chair, trying to keep his tone light. "Suzanne, my last project just wrapped up, so I have sfree tnow.

He had already stepped in to help her the previous time, yet Suzanne still didn't know when to back down. Jenson had assumed she had changed, but to his surprise, she was even more difficult than before. She was completely unreasonable.
Suzanne's grip on her cup tightened for a brief moment before she suddenly let out a laugh. She was completely exasperated. She had never met anyone this shameless.
Was she giving Jenson an attitude? That had to be the joke of the year. Did Jenson really think he had any right to expect that from her now?
Jenson tried to rein in his temper. He forced a smile, and his tone softened as if he were tam stubborn to child, "Suzanne, let's not make a big deal out of this. We've had our disagreements, but how about you take a look at sscripts for me? We can patch things up, okay?"
