Kelsie batted her lashes speechlessly.
Because this jerk was here, she couldn’t bring herself to turn him down just yet which was why he was still being hopeful towards her.
While there was nothing wrong with Serbian, she just didn’t see herself being romantically involved with him.
And it was just like he said, how could a man who had known her for only two days be this much in love with her?
A part of her didn’t buy it at all.
"Mr. Howard, we should..." She was still talking when Jett cut her off with a straight face.
"There’s no vacant apartnt here."
Serbian glanced at him and pressed his lips together thoughtfully.
"Oh, is that so? There’s an apartnt building after the intersection near here, I’ll rent an apartnt there. Compared to where I co from, that is quite close to this place."
The words had just rolled off his tongue when Jett snorted, "There’s no vacant apartnt there either. Just remain where you are right now."
Serbian t his eyes for the second ti that day, a mocking smile filling his eyes, "That decision is mine to make. I’ll continue looking around until I find a good apartnt or even house that’s close to this apartnt building."
Then he turned away from him to look at Kelsie, the mockery in his eyes instantly getting replaced by a sweet gaze.
"In the anti, please have breakfast with . I feel so bad for offering you sothing that you’re allergic to, so I won’t accept you turning down."
Kelsie didn’t think much about it before she began walking towards the direction of the cafeteria.
Knowing how he was, he would keep asking until she accepted. If she was going to accept his offer later on, she has no reason to refuse it now.
"I’m calling in one of my favors right now." Jett suddenly spoke up behind them, causing them to halt.
Kelsie and Serbian turned their heads to see him standing rooted to the spot, a small frown on his face and his hands buried in his pockets.
Jett took out his phone and tapped on it a few tis before showing the restaurant he looked up to Kelsie.
"I like their food. Take there."
One look at the restaurant and Kelsie knew it was going to be expensive.
She sucked in her teeth and glanced at him.
This man was the wealthiest person in Silicone Valley, so it was expected that he had such an expensive tastebud.
But why was his expensive tastebud about to make an impact on the little money she had? Oh, what a headache.
Mistaking her furrowed brows to her not liking the place he chose, Jett quickly searched up another one.
"I like this place too."
Seeing this second one was even more expensive, Kelsie quickly shook her head in refusal.
"Forget it. I’ll take you to the first one." Then she turned to apologize to Serbian. "Forgive , Mr. Howard, I can no longer have breakfast with you. Maybe another ti."
However, to her surprise, the man calmly waved her aside, the corners of his lips hooking up into a mischievous smile as he glanced at Jett.
"There’s no need to cancel, Ms. Sutton. If you’re both going to have breakfast, I’d love to join you too."
Kelsie’s lips spasd hearing him and she sighed inwardly wondering why the bills of two n with expensive tastebuds were about to be on her.
But recalling this was one of Jett’s ten favors and she wouldn’t have to put aside another day to eat with Serbian, she accepted.
So with that, she turned and began strolling out of the reception.
She walked all the way to the parking lot and was about to get into the car when she noticed the two n trailing behind her.
"What are you two doing?"
"I ca in a taxi." Serbian promptly said in defense.
Jett raised a questioning brow, "My assistant went sowhere with my car. You don’t expect to take a taxi to the place when you have a car, do you?"
Kelsie had just shrugged it off, finding their excuses reasonable, when the two n suddenly began screaming at each other.
"What is this? Didn’t you hear when I said I went to Darki with her? Not just anybody can go there together!"
"Didn’t you also hear when she said she doesn’t know you even though you two went to Darki yesterday? That’s to tell you she doesn’t care much about you!"
"Hey, I saved her life at Darki. So I deserve to sit in front!""
"Well, she saved my life two days ago and I feel bonded to her. So I deserve to be in front!"
She raised her eyes to look at them again, a flicker of impatience flashing through them as she hissed loudly, "You two can either get in the backseat or follow after in a taxi!"
Like kids who had just been reprimanded, the duo closed the door and filed to the backseat in silence.
The drive to the restaurant was quiet as both n had their eyes outside the window.
So directed by the restaurant’s parking assistant , Kelsie parked under a shade.
As she killed the car engine and took out the key, the door to the driver’s seat suddenly swung open.
Serbian Howard held the door gracefully, ushering her out with a flattering smile, "Please co out, Ms. Sutton."
On the other side of the car, Jett scoffed irritatedly at this sight.
"Why return his smile? Is this the first ti soone of the opposite gender is doing so for you?"
"What are you trying to say?" Kelsie glanced at him briefly.
The man folded his arms across his chest.
"If you liked things like that, why didn’t you tell yesterday?"
Walking behind her, Serbian clicked his tongue a few tis in disappointnt.
"She has to tell you before you open the door for her? You’re no gentleman. What rock did you crawl out from?"
Jett simply ignored his taunting and walked in with them.
Seeing two charismatic n in expensive clothing walk in with a woman in a grey sweatpant and tank top was a sight a lot of people didn’t expect to see so early in the morning.
A waiter led them to a table before she stood there taking their order.
Three tables away, a friend of Laura’s recognized Kelsie and quickly sent her a picture of Kelsie and the two n with her, along with the location they were.
As soon as Laura received it, she forwarded it to Bryan Baker.
