CEO's Reborn Wife-Chapter 342 - 350: How Could It Be Here?

After sending the text message, James Black finally set his mobile phone down, but he didn’t keep it too far away, just within easy reach.

When he picked up his chopsticks again, the vegetables on the tabletop seemed to have become just a tad more appetizing.

Unaware next door, Jane Sampson, who had accidentally turned her phone on silent mode, neither heard Peter Gingery calling her nor saw the messages from James Black on WhatsApp.

By the time she and James Carter and Ms. Little finished their meal, she had no idea what time it was.

If it weren’t for James Carter and Ms. Little needing to keep their schedule, Jane Sampson was sure they could have spent an entire afternoon chatting in the private room.

"It’s already over one o’clock. We have some things to do this afternoon, and it’s a bit regrettable that we can’t continue chatting. When we have time, we must make another date to do this, to eat and talk like today. It’s really comfortable," Ms. Little said regretfully, patting Jane Sampson on the shoulder with a laugh. "I’m very much looking forward to your cooperation with James Carter. However, I think I’ll be able to see you as James Carter’s MV’s female lead soon. A beautiful and hardworking girl like you should be luckier than others. Keep it up, Jane."

"Thank you, Ms. Little, and thank you, Mr. Carter, I really enjoyed chatting with you both," she said, as if a light suddenly dawned.

She was happy, but when Ms. Little mentioned that it was already past one o’clock, Jane Sampson’s heart couldn’t help but skip a beat.

It’s over; someone at home must be quite displeased by now.

But, well, let him have a black face if he likes. At worst, when she gets back, she’ll stick to him persistently, dragging him out if she has to.

She didn’t believe that someone who cared about their image could beat someone who didn’t. For the sake of shopping, for the sake of buying, buying, buying, she could be shameless when necessary.

The three of them stood up, and James Carter opened the door, letting Ms. Little and Jane Sampson go out first while discussing the MV cooperation with Jane. He mentioned the shooting location, describing it as a small village he had discovered by chance, with pristine scenery. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

Swayed by James Carter’s description, Jane Sampson was already looking forward to it, her smiling face full of anticipation.

Shortly after the three stepped out of the private room, behind them, James Black’s voice suddenly rang out.

"Jane Sampson."

James Black had been waiting for Jane to reply on WhatsApp, and not getting a reply, he knew she must have been so engrossed that she didn’t need to use her phone for entertainment.

He had been keeping an eye on the movements next door. Not being able to hear the conversation, but keeping the door of the room open, he could hear the noise of the others leaving, so he quickly followed suit.

Upon hearing the voice, Jane Sampson looked back and, with a sound of surprise, said, "How come you’re here?"

"What else would I be doing here if not eating?," James Black retorted with a question, "I heard the food here is good, so why shouldn’t I come and try it?"

Jane Sampson scratched her head. Alone? To try it?

Wait a minute...

Was this guy definitely not here to supervise her?

They had agreed ’one o’clock or don’t wait,’ could it be that he was deliberately waiting at the doorway to tell her ’don’t wait’ if she was over one minute late?

"Who is this?" Ms. Little turned her head and asked Jane Sampson, "If I remember correctly, he’s your husband, right?"

Jane Sampson came back to her senses, nodded her head, "Yes, Ms. Little, Mr. Carter, let me introduce you two, this is my husband, James Black."

Jane Sampson moved beside James Black. "Ms. Little, you should be aware, and next to Ms. Little, that’s Mr. Carter."
