Chapter 64 

After finishing their meal, Jayden and Deborah headed to the Cooper Group. 

Upon arrival, Deborah was amazed by the size of the place–the construction company boasted a spacious parking lot for its workers and machinery storage, beside its three large office buildings. 

“Welcome to the great Cooper empire,” Jayden chuckled, seeing Deborah’s expression of awe. 

[It’s huge.] 

“Well, it’s necessary. We need space to store all the machinery and materials, and for the employees to work comfortably.” 

[I can see tell.] Deborah noted the large trucks coming and going with machinery and materials at that moment. 

“Right this way, my love,” Jayden said, taking her hand to give her a quick tour of the place. 

Jayden quickly explained each area they passed through on their way to the office. 

Upon reaching their destination, they immediately got to work, as they had a tax appointment the next day. 

Initially, Jayden was hesitant to ask for Deborah’s help, but that opinion changed when he saw how quickly she grasped everything as she began organizing the invoices and documents. 

“Wow, boss, the new accountant is our savior,” remarked an employee who came to deliver several reports to Deborah. 

“Yes, she’s my beautiful angel and your future boss,” Jayden replied, looking affectionately at Deborah as she worked. 

“Oh, that’s great, congratulations, boss,” said the employee, handing over the documents before returning to work. 

Jayden thanked him with gesture, then turned to hand the documents to Deborah for her to finish organizing all the reports and invoices. 

“How’s it going, my love?” 

[Good, I just need to review the invoices for office supplies.]

“I have those, I’ll give them to you now,” Jayden sald happily, going to his desk to retrieve the folders, and then handing them to her. 

Just then, hurried footsteps were heard approaching the office before the doors burst open. 

“Jayden, what happened? They just told me Peter is sick and… oh… hi,” Eric arrived flustered at the office, having been told his accountant was ill and couldn’t help with the company’s accounting, only to find Deborah there. 

“Hi, Dad. Yeah, I was informed too, but don’t worry, your beautiful future daughter- in–law is taking care of it.” 

“Huh?” Eric looked at Deborah again and noticed her organizing the documents at that moment. “Really?” 

[Good afternoon, and yes, I’m finishing up on the organization so you can file your tax return tomorrow.] 

“That quickly?” 

[Mr. Peter is efficient at his job, so it was just a matter of organizing the recent invoices.] 

“Oh, I see. My son is right, you truly are an angel.” Deborah blushed at the compliment. 

“Now that we’re both here, could you explain it to us?” Jayden asked. 

“Yes,” she replied, starting to explain about the organization system. She handed them a document she had written to make the explanation easier for the authorities. 

Night fell eventually but luckily, everything was sorted out. 

“Deborah, you saved us. Tell me, how can I repay you?” Eric asked as the three 

walked towards the exit of the parking lot. 

(I didn’t do it to get something in return.] 

“But my dad is right, we owe you.” 

[But I did it because I wanted to help.] 

“Well, I’ll find something beautiful to give you later, how about that?” Eric 

suggested. “Oh, I know! Why don’t we call my wife and go to dinner wherever you want?” 

+15 BONUS 

[Sorry, but I’ll decline your offer because I already have dinner plans.] 

“Oh really?” Jayden asked somewhat jealously. 

[Elliot and George are coming to the house at 8, they said they want to talk to me about the news.] 

“And what news is that?” Eric asked curiously. 

“That Deborah is expecting a child,” Jayden smiled, taking her hand. “And your first grandchild is a boy.” 

“A boy? Well… this news will both make my wife happy and sad.” 

[And why is that?] 

“Mom was on my team–we wanted a princess. 

[I see.] Deborah chuckled at that. 

“Boss!” The trio heard one of the employees call out as he came looking for them. Sorry, but there’s an urgent video call from the Italy branch, they’re looking for you regarding the new hotel.” 

“I’ll go,” Eric said. “Well, Deborah, excuse me, I have to go.” 

“Um… I…” Jayden looked undecided about what to do next. 

[Go with your dad, I’ll wait for you.] Deborah reassured him. 

“Are you sure?” 

[Sure, I’ll be here catching some air.] Deborah replied. 

“Alright, my love, I won’t be long,” Jayden said, giving her a quick kiss on the lips. before following his father to attend the call
