Living With My Lady Boss by Blue Silver novel Chapter 1758

Tina got closer to Wilbur as she spoke, pressing her lips to his in a deep kiss.

She moved so quickly that Wilbur could not duck, and they were already kissing by the time Wilbur came to his senses and it was too late to push her away.

Tina kissed Wilbur with a passion so fierce he found it hard to breathe. She finally let him go a full minute later, looking into his eyes deeply. "I'm all yours now, Mister Penn."

"You can have me anytime you want, Mister Penn."

Wilbur nodded helplessly, before suddenly remembering Madam Marie. "Oh, right. Tina, did you keep Madam Marie's number from earlier?"

Tina nodded. "You said that Madam Marie's antiques were really important, so I kept her contact. Would you like me to call her now?"

"No." Wilbur shook his head. "Not for now. Just let me know first thing if she reaches out to us, that's all."

Marie's antiques were indeed important, but Wilbur was also worried about something else. That old man at the auction did not seem to know the powers the meteorite held, and any regular person would refuse to pay more than fifty million dollars for it.

Yet that old man had offered seventy million dollars, which meant that he had to have some kind of special relationship with Marie's side of the Jonan clan.

As an ex-mercenary, Wilbur had a knack for reading people. Something about the glint in the old man's eyes told Wilbur there was definitely something between him and the Jonan clan.

"Yes," Tina nodded. "His name is Greg Jonan, and he's waiting for you on the balcony. He hopes to see you."

Wilbur nodded. He had hoped to be able to avoid this, but the guy had come knocking on his door and Wilbur was not completely opposed to meeting with him.

Wilbur also had a few questions that he would like to get to the bottom of, in case there might be any future misunderstanding.

The balcony was a beautiful golden hue from the last of the sun when Wilbur arrived, and the old man stood with his back facing Wilbur as he murmured, "What a beautiful sunset. I can't believe a place with such peace and quiet exists in a city so busy."
