You Are The Pursuit of My Life novel Chapter 48

Jordan touched his burning face, but there wasn't a trace of anger on his face. Getting a slap in exchange for a kiss was worth it!

Thinking about Irene and Jordan kissing in the car, Edric drove aimlessly. He felt burning rage in his chest. This couldn't go on! He must stop Irene and Jordan from being together.

Jordan was a notorious playboy. Womanizing was his only weakness. Edric thought about it for a while and finally came up with a solution. He called John and said, "Let Lili immediately fly to San Fetillo to shoot an advertisement!"

Irene slapped him so hard that the red mark on Jordan's face didn't fade completely after a night. When he saw Irene coming in, he deliberately showed his face to Irene. Refusing to see him, Irene lowered her head and looked down.

There was nothing Jordan could do if she didn't look at him. David happened to come in and send the documents. When he saw Jordan, he asked with concern, "Mr. Reed, what's the matter with your face?"

"I just suffer hives!" Jordan laughed.

"Hives? Strange, why don't you have hives on your left face but hives on your right face? Do hives actually pick spots to appear in?"

Irene said, "I once had hives that only appeared on one of my wrists."

Feeling somewhat incredulous, John went out. Jordan coughed awkwardly. "Irene, did you hit me with that hand with hives?"

Irene ignored him and said with a serious expression, "Mr. Reed, I'll report today's schedule to you."

Jordan saw that she was down to business, so he also returned to business. He could tease her outside of work, but he had to be serious when he was at work.

"You will have a magazine interview at 10 a.m. and go to the urban construction site to sign a contract at 2 p.m.," Irene said in a diplomatic tone.

These were the two things that Jordan had to do today. Even if Irene hadn't mentioned them, he would still remember clearly. "Is there anything else?"

"There's another crucial thing." Irene seemed to think of something suddenly. "Miss Lilith will arrive at the airport at four o'clock in the evening."

The name "Lilith" made Jordan raise his eyebrows. He looked at Irene with a halfhearted smile on his face.

Irene paused for a moment. "I've already arranged a hotel for Miss Lilith and ordered a meal for you two. After signing the contract, Mr. Reed can go directly to the airport to pick up Miss Lilith and welcome her back."

"Who asked you to make the decision for the matter regarding Lilith?" Jordan asked slowly.

"I didn't make the decision on my own. Everything was done according to your instructions." Irene revealed a look of grievance.

"My instructions?" Why didn't he remember issuing such instructions before?

"Yes, Miss Lilith was in a hurry last time and only stayed in San Fetillo for one day. At that time, you told me that we would follow that day's procedures when Miss Lilith came back again. At that time, we also arranged a hotel, ordered dinner, and Mr. Reed, you personally went to pick her up."

Jordan naturally didn't expect that Irene was waiting to set him up here. He had already forgotten whether or not he had said that. Even if he hadn't said so, Irene would definitely say that he said so. Now, he had no way of obtaining any evidence. He stared at Irene for a long time and smiled mischievously. "Alright, you're progressing!"

"It's all because of Mr. Reed's good guidance!" Irene answered obediently. Her answer made Jordan furious. Upon seeing Jordan's angry expression, Irene was in a good mood.

Jordan hadn't said anything about Lilith at all. It was all made up by her. Last night, when Jordan kissed her crazily under the influence of alcohol, she was extremely angry.

With Jordan's shamelessness, he would definitely say that he didn't remember forcibly kissing her at all. She had already slapped him in the face, and there was no sign of his outburst repeating. But when she thought about it, she decided she couldn't let him off the hook so easily. After returning home and lying down on her bed, she suddenly received a phone call from Lilith. "Executive Assistant Nelson, I'm Lilith. Why can't my call to Mr. Reed get through?"

"I don't know either," Irene replied.

"I'll fly to San Fetillo at four o'clock in the afternoon tomorrow. Executive Assistant Nelson, please tell Mr. Reed." Lilith's voice sounded condescending.

In the past, Jordan had been very enthusiastic towards Lilith, so Lilith had always been haughty. Although Irene wasn't interested in women whose livelihood depended on their looks, Lilith's appearance was undoubtedly a good thing for her.

If she remembered correctly, Jordan hadn't talked about Lilith for a long time. Jordan was a womanizer, and if he were interested in a person, he would talk about her all the time. Otherwise, it meant he had already forgotten about her.

Irene became excited. The sudden appearance of a woman he was no longer interested in was definitely enough for payback against Jordan. She made up her mind to book a room for Lilith and didn't forget to remind Jordan to pick her up.
