C11 You Want Me to Go?

Even when everyone's blood was boiling, they did not forget how big their CEO was.

For a time, the issue of the president's general meeting not participating in this event became the focus of everyone's attention.

While her colleagues were thinking about this question, Jane Ronan was also thinking about Edwin Carter.

Edwin Carter had been out on a business trip this week and she hadn't seen him for several days. When would he be able to return?

Although he would call back on time every night, her relationship with him had yet to reach the point where they could talk about anything. Many times, the two people on both ends of the phone were silent.

At this time, someone started an event in the company's activity group. The CEO would not participate in this event, and the participants would each bet five hundred yuan.

Five hundred yuan wasn't a lot. For a moment, many people responded. The tens of people inside had all bet, going or not was almost a draw.

Briana Rodriguez and Wade Wong ran over at the same time to find Jane Ronan. They hurriedly asked, "Jane Ronan, do you want to bet with me?"

Jane Ronan analyzed it seriously.

Although Edwin Carter had a cold personality, this was the first time the company organized such a big event since he took office. He also went to such a rich and powerful place and probably ordered Sienna Henry to prepare it.

Near the end of the day, Jane Ronan received a call from Edwin Carter. She knew he had come back from a business trip, so she went back to the supermarket to buy ingredients, daily necessities and snacks for the trip tomorrow.

When he got home, Edwin Carter was still busy in the study room. Jane Ronan greeted him and then went to prepare dinner.

While they were eating, Edwin Carter was still eating without saying a word.

Jane Ronan peeked at him a few times and finally asked bravely, "Edwin Carter, are you going to join the event organized by the company tomorrow?"

Edwin Carter didn't seem to hear her question and continued to eat his meal seriously.

When he didn't answer, Jane Ronan felt a little awkward, so she lowered her head again to eat.

After a long while, Edwin Carter put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth with a tissue and casually replied: "I'm not interested in this kind of activity."

Edwin Carter didn't directly say that he wasn't going, but it was obvious that he wasn't going.

"Oh." Jane Ronan whispered an "oh". Her voice was filled with disappointment.

"What is it? You want me to go? " Looking at Jane Ronan's disappointed expression, Edwin Carter suddenly said something else.

Jane Ronan scratched her head and giggled, thinking to herself, it doesn't matter if you go or not, what I care about is the five hundred yuan I bet.

Under the bright lights of the chandelier, Edwin Carter slightly raised his eyebrows. Since she wanted him to go, as his husband, he would make time to go.

"..."

The next day, Jane Ronan woke up early, but Edwin Carter was still early.

They had been cohabiting for some time now, and no matter how early she got up, Edwin Carter was dressed and sitting by the window reading a financial newspaper.

Sometimes, Jane Ronan felt that Edwin Carter didn't seem like someone who lived in this era.

His routine was outrageous. Every day, he took time to read the papers that were about to go out of business, rather than learn about them through the Internet.

"Get up!" He looked up at her, then down at the newspaper.

"En, morning!" Jane Ronan looked at him, unable to shift her gaze away.

Today, he was wearing a pure white casual attire, sitting quietly on the single sofa by the window. His long and slender legs were crossed randomly, and the morning sunlight gently shone through the window onto his body, causing him to appear slightly warmer.

This man was simply not a human being, but a work of art that was rare in the world, so beautiful that one would have liked to keep him.

Jane Ronan's burning, probing gaze caught Edwin Carter's attention, but he ignored it and continued to calmly read the newspaper in his hands.

His appearance often attracted countless gazes of infatuation, which made him extremely disgusted. However, he was not the least bit disgusted by Jane Ronan's fixed gaze.

After a long while, Jane Ronan's gaze still hadn't left him. He raised his head and looked at her. "Aren't we going to participate in events organized by the company?"

"I almost forgot if you didn't say it." Jane Ronan smiled embarrassedly as she casually came up with an excuse.

She had thought that a work of art like Edwin Carter would definitely be able to sell for a good price. Edwin Carter's voice was like a bucket of cold water that woke her up.

"..."

The company rented two to fifty seats of buses to send colleagues to the resort of Bluesea Hill.

While the department heads were counting, everyone was looking around to see if the CEO was coming.

Briana Rodriguez stood beside Jane Ronan and said, "God bless us. The CEO must come. She must come."

Jane Ronan blurted out, "He won't come."

Briana Rodriguez's eyes widened as she looked at Jane Ronan. "How did you know?"

Jane Ronan realized that she had leaked the information, so she immediately added, "CEO is usually very punctual, I can't see anyone today, so he definitely won't come."

Briana Rodriguez lowered her head in disappointment. Hearing that, the female colleague beside her also sighed in disappointment.

The thoughts of the female colleagues were very clear. Normally, they would not be able to see the CEO in their work, nor would they have the opportunity to show off in front of him. This trip was definitely an opportunity for them.

They all took out their beautiful clothes and wanted to show their faces in front of the CEO, but he wouldn't come.

It took them over an hour to arrive at the coastal villa. The first thing they did when they arrived was to get a room card.

Jane Ronan was originally sharing a room with Briana Rodriguez, but who would've thought that Sienna Henry would suddenly step forward and say, "Jane Ronan, the rooms here aren't enough. You and I will share a room together."

Sienna Henry was a popular person by the CEO's side. Jane Ronan had been assigned a room to stay in, which made everyone jealous to the point that they didn't want it.

When everyone was busy taking their room cards, Sienna Henry said, "Please wait a moment, Boss Carter has something to say to everyone."

Boss Carter!

Everyone's eyes lit up. Boss Carter really came?

Under everyone's anticipating gazes, Edwin Carter, who wore a silver coloured hand-cut suit, slowly walked in from the front door. Every step he took caused the female colleagues' hearts to thump loudly.

When Jane Ronan saw Edwin Carter, she thought that not only did she almost run away with the five hundred yuan, but she also won a few hundred yuan.

When Edwin Carter's gaze swept over them, he saw that Jane Ronan was smiling brilliantly. He thought to himself, I only spent a little time to walk around, how could I make her so happy?

He walked over and politely smiled at the others, "Everyone enjoy and eat to your heart's content. The company will be responsible for all the expenses."

Everyone jumped up in excitement. They almost called him their CEO. Only Jane Ronan stood behind them quietly, thinking that money was willful.

Sienna Henry made an excuse saying that the rooms on this side of the street had been divided. She then led Jane Ronan in a tourist car to a private villa area in the resort.

Looking at the scenery here, Jane Ronan was a little nervous. Could it be that Sienna Henry had brought her here for another purpose?

Jane Ronan guessed right, Sienna Henry had sent him to Edwin Carter's private territory.
