CEO's Reborn Wife
Chapter 1735 - 1743: How Long Ago
"Anyway, as long as it’s a safe item, otherwise I couldn’t bring it in." Jane Sampson raised her eyebrows, "Be careful, no dragging, carry it upstairs."
"Such a hassle!" Peter Gingery grumbled, but still listened to Jane Sampson and carried the delivery upstairs.
Jane Sampson had keys to James Black’s dormitory, so she walked in ahead of Peter Gingery to open the door. Peter Gingery was waiting to see Jane Sampson open the package, but unexpectedly, Jane Sampson turned around and started to shoo him away.
"Betrayal after crossing the river, I see right through you," Peter Gingery said angrily, glaring, "You’re really something, don’t ask me for help next time!"
"Nyah nyah nyah..." Jane Sampson made a funny face at Peter Gingery, "We’ll talk about next time, next time."
Peter Gingery was maddened, standing there grumbling for a while, poking Jane Sampson’s forehead several times before leaving in satisfaction.
As soon as Peter Gingery left, Jane Sampson quickly started looking for scissors to open the package.
Busy with this, by the time she finished tidying up, forty minutes had passed.
Jane Sampson stood at the bedroom entrance, took one last look at her masterpiece, patted her hands in satisfaction, and left James Black’s dormitory. She didn’t bother to say goodbye to Peter Gingery, just drove away.
Jane Sampson had said she would be out for three or four hours, and sure enough, Coco Edwards saw Jane Sampson returning to the hotel at 4:30.
"I’ve got some news for you." Coco Edwards leaned against Jane Sampson’s room doorway, smiling brightly, "Just now, your Daddy Black came looking for you."
"What!" Jane Sampson was so shocked she dropped the access card in her hand to the ground, "How long ago was just now?"
"About an hour ago, he stood right in front of me asking where you went. I couldn’t lie, so I told the truth," Coco Edwards said squinting, smiling, "Your Daddy Black must have called you, right? Didn’t you get the call?"
Only then did Jane Sampson take her mobile phone out from her pocket, and indeed, two missed calls from James Black 56 minutes ago.
At that time she was driving, her mobile phone was in her purse, and the purse was on the rear seat, so she probably didn’t hear it ring.
"You and your Daddy Black have quite the connection, both trying to surprise each other, wanting to spend this beautiful Women’s Day together," Coco Edwards lifted her hand to pat Jane Sampson’s shoulder, "By the way, I think he was holding a cup of double-layer milk curd."
"!!!" Jane Sampson stomped her foot in frustration, "My double-layer milk curd!"
James Black must have thought she was still at the guard team, so he took it there to find her!
"And it’s the famous double-layer milk curd from Snowy’s, medium-sized." Coco Edwards watching Jane Sampson’s desperate look to chase after James Black, was laughing so hard she almost had internal injuries, "Snowy’s double-layer milk curd, every time I go, I have to queue for more than half an hour to buy it, and it’s limited daily. If you go later, you can’t buy it."
"Don’t think I didn’t hear the schadenfreude in your voice." Jane Sampson bent down to pick up the room card, sighed, "Who knew he would come out for a meeting today in the afternoon and suddenly think of buying a cup of double-layer milk curd to bring over to see me?"
And just when she left the guard team, he arrived here to find him.
If only he had called her a little earlier, even 15 minutes would have been good.
She could have ignored teasing him for food.
Meanwhile, over at the guard team, James Black returned and asked a team member standing guard at the doorway, "Did Jane Sampson come to the guard team this afternoon?"
The team member standing guard nodded, "I think I heard sister-in-law was here, and it was Peter Gingery who personally led her in."
