Chapter 344 Keep It a Secret
From the tone of Jenny’s voice, Morgan was sure the person on the other end of the line was definitely Jenny’s boyfriend. She had never heard Jenny talk so tenderly to anyone before.
Jenny cleared her throat and didn’t deny it. “Drive safely, Morgan. Stop being so nosy.”
Morgan understood that Jenny was admitting to her assumption and couldn’t help but laugh.” Who is he? Do I know him? Is he from the hospital?”
Jenny shook her head, but she wasn’t entirely sure. “Alec is a major shareholder of the hospital, so technically speaking, he can be considered someone from the hospital too?” Jenny contemplated silently.
“I suppose so,” she said softly, not very sure.
“Suppose so?” Morgan didn’t understand the meaning of it. She surmised that perhaps he wasn’t a doctor but someone from the administrative department.
Jenny gave her a look and didn’t intend to elaborate. “When the time comes for you to know, you’ll know. It’s a secret for now.”
She still hadn’t figured out how to make her relationship with Alec public. It just felt strange for her to progress from his ex-wife to his girlfriend. Morgan didn’t ask much. She knew Jenny had her reasons for not telling her everything, and she was fine with just listening.
Soon, they arrived at the designated restaurant. They got out of the car and walked inside. Throughout the journey, Morgan had been chatting with her blind date and found out that he hadn’t arrived yet. She couldn’t help but complain, “He’s already late for our first meeting. Doesn’t this mean he doesn’t care, Jenny?”
She was afraid of leaving a bad impression, so she came early. Nonetheless, her blind date didn’t make an effort to show up earlier, which upset her a little.
“Maybe he’s someone who likes to be on time? Don’t think too much about it. Let’s wait until he arrives,” Jenny replied. She wouldn’t think there was a problem just because the blind date didn’t come early. After all, it was fine as long as he arrived within the agreed time.
Jenny smiled at her and made her sit down. “It’s okay. Let’s just have a meal together. It doesn’t really matter whether that guy comes or not.”
Although she said that, Morgan was still very angry. Just as she was about to call her date, the restaurant door was pushed open, and a man walked in their direction.
“Hello, I’m Winston Murr. Sorry for being late; there was some traffic on the way,” he explained. His eyes were glued to Jenny as he regretted being late.
Morgan was incensed by then. When she saw him still staring at Jenny, she said in a disgruntled tone, “I’m Morgan, the one who’s here to meet you.”
“Oh? Really?” Winston retracted his gaze and looked at Morgan, disappointment apparent in his eyes.
