Revenge is best served cold novel Chapter 287

Hearing my response, Eric raised an eyebrow, looking like he was about to press for details.

I smiled and quickly changed the subject. "I finished shopping. I think the clothes I picked will be perfect for the interview."

Then, I shook a slightly different-looking shopping bag in my left hand. "I also got you some ties. Yours are way too outdated for someone your age."

Eric's ties had been on my list of things to complain about for a while now. He was young and sharp, yet some of his ties looked like they belonged to a middle-aged man.

A flicker of surprise and delight flashed across his face as he took the bag from me. Without hesitation, he also took the rest of my bags.

At home, while I sorted through my outfits, Eric was in front of the mirror, trying on the ties one by one. It was obvious he liked them.

…

Time passed quickly, and it was soon the day of the interview. It was scheduled for the evening, so after work, Dad had Jack drive me to the TV station. As soon as I got in the car, I saw Elsa sitting in the front passenger seat, looking as innocent as ever.

I immediately rolled my eyes.

"Should I report you for abusing your authority, Jack?" I asked dryly.

Jack opened the back door, shoved me inside, and got behind the wheel—all in one smooth motion.

He barely even looked at me as he replied nonchalantly, "Elsa's never been to a TV station before. I figured I'd bring her along. It's not a big deal. Why are you so petty?"

I turned to the window, ignoring them. They didn't even need to spell it out—I already knew what they were up to.
