108: Chapter 108 Still Here 108: Chapter 108 Still Here The next morning when Gina Lopez got up, she saw Jas Brown cooking in the kitchen.
She yawned and approached him, “You’re up early— I thought you wouldn’t be able to wake up.”
Jas Brown turned his head to Gina Lopez with a smile, “I always seem to get up quite early, don’t I?”
“That’s unusual,” Gina suddenly realized that this topic of conversation with Jas Brown was way too flirtatious, and she hastily shut her mouth.
Jas Brown chuckled, “Sorry to disturb your rest.
It’s all because you insisted on calling Sunny over.”
Seeing Jas Brown shift the bla to her, Gina imdiately glared at him, “What’s that supposed to an?
You’re not grateful?”
“Grateful, of course, I’m grateful.
We should do this more often, better yet, bring a couple more.”
“Get lost!” Gina kicked Jas Brown and turned to leave.
At that mont, Sunny Nguyen also ca out of the bedroom.
Gina, with a smile, greeted her and specifically checked Sunny’s complexion.
She had expected Sunny to look tired, but Sunny seed to be in particularly good spirits today, not at all affected by last night’s exhaustion.
In fact, it seed to have made her more radiant.
“Sister Sunny, you look really great today.” Gina teased Sunny with a smile.
Although Sunny was a bit embarrassed, she had already prepared herself emotionally and chuckled, “Is that so?
It’s just how won are.”
Gina was sowhat surprised by Sunny’s candid response but beca even more curious as they entered the bathroom together.
Sunny snickered, “Of course, this is one of the main reasons why won age quickly.”
Gina’s face turned completely red, “Sister Sunny, you really say the darndest things.”
Gina’s face reddened even more, stamring, “I’ve never had a boyfriend.”
“Aha?” Sunny suddenly looked as if she’d discovered a new continent, “Gina, this makes you really valuable now.
To n, you’re like a treasure.”
Gina gave Sunny a pinch and said with annoyance, “Look at that expression.
You’re obviously implying that I’m a loser.”
Sunny hastily explained, “No, no, that’s not what I an.
In such an open society, there are so few girls who keep themselves pure like you.
That’s why I said that; I didn’t an to mock you.”
Gina’s face was still red as she said, “Stop it, I’m already embarrassed enough.”
“Ha ha, alright, I’ll stop.
Since you’ve kept it all this ti, you should really cherish it.”
“I’m not talking about this anymore, Sister Sunny.
You’ve been corrupted by that guy Jas Brown, even saying things like this.”
“Hehe, it’s not him who’s corrupted , it’s you who’s too innocent.”
Gina could not stand the topic anymore and hurriedly washed up before making her escape.
“Boss, Director, breakfast is ready.” Jas Brown finished preparing breakfast and called out to the two won.
Sunny ca over with a mischievous smile on her face, and Gina, still blushing, which made Jas Brown really puzzled.
Shouldn’t it be Sunny feeling awkward and embarrassed, and Gina with that flirty smile?
During breakfast, Sunny looked at Gina and chuckled, making Gina nearly lose her temper, “Sister Sunny, if you laugh any more, I’m really going to get angry.”
“Alright, alright, I won’t laugh.
Let’s eat,” Sunny said as she lowered her head to eat but couldn’t suppress her smile.
Although Gina said she would get angry, Sunny was the only female friend in YODC City she could really talk to, so of course, she wouldn’t get truly upset.
Jas Brown was curious but tactfully didn’t ask.
When they arrived at the company in the morning, Jessica Wilson imdiately sidled up to Jas Brown.
She didn’t speak, but her gaze was filled with admiration and adoration.
“Ms.
Wilson, could you stop looking at like that?
It’s making my skin crawl.” Jas Brown leaned back a little, feeling sowhat uncomfortable under Jessica’s gaze.
If Sarah Utah looked at him that way, he could enjoy it a bit.
However, if Sarah Utah really looked at him like that, he’d probably be even more afraid.
Although Jessica’s gaze was uncomfortable, at least he was calm inside.
Jessica gave Jas Brown a thumbs-up, “Jas, my admiration for you is like the everlasting flow of the Y River, and like the torrential Y River, it’s unstoppable.
You are truly the idol in my heart.”
Jas Brown smiled and said, “Ms.
Wilson, please stop making fun of .
What you see isn’t the truth.”
“Is this not real?
You think I’m underage, or do you think I’m ntally challenged?” Jessica Wilson imdiately widened her eyes.
Jessica’s reaction was just as Jas Brown and Gina Lopez had expected; she certainly didn’t believe that the two of them were innocent.
However, when you think about it, if a woman is accompanying a man to shop at a lingerie store, and even buying for him directly, how could it be that there is no relationship between them?
Jas could only helplessly say, “Alright, but don’t go spreading it around, or if the boss gets mad, you won’t be able to handle the consequences.”
“Hehe, I used to be afraid, but not anymore.
Given our relationship, how could you not speak up for when the ti cos?”
“Great, but if I’m already in trouble myself by then, I won’t be able to look out for you.”
Jessica contemptuously curled her lip at Jas, but she was also clear that a poor guy like Jas could climb up to soone like Gina Lopez, he had no status and would, of course, listen to everything Gina said.
So, she really didn’t dare ntion this matter to anyone else—after all, jobs are hard to co by these days, and offending the boss could an losing one’s job.
Sarah Utah walked in from outside, greeted Jas, and sat down to work.
It was the first ti she had taken a liking to a man, but she had been rejected.
Even if she spoke lightly of it, she still felt a little awkward facing Jas.
Jas did not initiate any conversation with Sarah.
Letting the matter cool down wasn’t a bad thing.
When Jas got off work in the evening, he went back ho.
Gina Lopez was not there yet, and he still had so ti to himself.
However much he craved freedom, Lucy Campbell ca over again, demanding that he accompany her out to et friends tonight.
Jas imdiately refused, saying, “The friends you’re eting are all wealthy or noble, why should I go with you?
I don’t want to end up like before, standing in your shadow.”
Lucy laughed softly, “Of course not.
The friends I am eting are just a few ordinary friends.
I’ve established a new company here, so I need to do so promotion.
Tonight, I am going to et two local celebrities and have them endorse our company.
They don’t know my real identity.
You’ll be appearing as a friend of mine, so you’ll be comfortable.”
Jas was still reluctant, “But I have plans tonight.”
Lucy’s sexy lips pursed as she said, “Please, just agree.
You know if I go out, I will definitely have bodyguards following , and that makes people suspect my identity right away.
If you go with , I won’t need bodyguards.
Could you just help out, please?”
Lucy Campbell, as the most beautiful woman in SSUP Country, naturally needs no introduction, and her every smile was captivating.
With such tender persuasion and a pitifully delicate deanor, she shattered Jas’ defenses completely, leaving him no choice but to smile wryly, “Alright then.”
Lucy imdiately bead with happiness and pleaded with Jas to change into a suit.
Seeing him dressed up, she squinted her eyes in appreciation and said, “Not bad, not bad.
You really look handso.”
Jas imdiately bragged, “So, do you think I could charm those two celebrities you’re eting?”
“That depends on your skills.
If you really manage to charm them, I will definitely help you,” she replied jokingly.
The two of them laughed and got into a red Ferrari.
Jas could only play the role of the driver.
“By the way, when I go with you, what’s my identity going to be?” Since Jas had agreed, he naturally wanted to do a good job—it was his usual work ethic.
Lucy looked at Jas, squinting, and suggested, “How about as my boyfriend?”
Jas’ eyes widened instantly, and he turned to glance at Lucy before shaking his head vigorously, “No, no, I’ve been pretending to be soone’s boyfriend enough already and I’ve had my fill.”
Lucy’s eyes narrowed, “Pretending to be who?”
“Gina Lopez.”
Lucy’s eyes sparkled with amusent, “That does sound quite interesting.
Since you don’t want to pretend to be my boyfriend, how about being my cousin?
How does that sound?”
Jas nodded, “That’s more like it.”
“Then it’s settled.
Cousin, don’t forget that you are worth hundreds of millions.
Don’t lose face when the ti cos.”
Jas patted the steering wheel, “No problem, just don’t actually make spend any money; then I really would be in trouble.”
“Here, you won’t ss up with this,” Lucy said, handing him a golden bank card, revealing the pin.
Jas took it without hesitation, “Is there a limit?”
“Yeah, the limit is ten million.
Just don’t swipe over ten million in one go and it’s fine.”
“You’re really generous, but with your status, ten million really is nothing to you.”
“I’m not hiring you, just asking for a favor, for you to put on a good front for .”
Jas felt quite pleased hearing this.
He had only interacted with Lucy once before, when he protected her as she fled back to the country.
He truly didn’t understand SSUP Country’s most beautiful woman at all.
Deep in his heart, Jas couldn’t help but see Lucy as quite a proud person, but interacting with her, he felt she was really a very humble woman and was very considerate of a man’s dignity.
Just on that alone, she was enough to outshine eighty percent of won.
