Lingering Doting Marriage: Big Boss, Little Sweet Heart

Chapter 829: Chapter 829: Is It Popular to Block People at the Door Now?

It was time to leave work in the afternoon.

Enna Clark had just walked out of Rhine Corporation’s door.

She was already being stopped by someone.

She looked at the person blocking her way with a headache and responded indifferently, “President Clark, what are you doing now?”

What on earth was happening today? Did everyone like to run to the company entrance to stop people?

It had been the same with Baron Lawrence’s sister, and now Jacob Clark as well.

However, what could Jacob Clark possibly want with her? Didn’t he always enjoy ordering her around in front of him? Yet today, he actually ran to the company entrance to block her.

“Enna, let’s find a place to talk,” he suggested.

There were people coming and going on either side of the company, all glancing over at them. It was the first time Jacob Clark had stooped so low, and even with his thick skin, he couldn’t help but look a bit embarrassed.

“I have nothing to discuss with President Clark, and besides, don’t you understand the basic courtesy of making an appointment?” Enna bluntly refused.

Jacob Clark had known she would refuse. A flash of awkwardness crossed his face, but he forced himself to endure it. “Enna, just one last time. I’ll talk to you one last time. After this, I promise I won’t come looking for you again.”

“…” Enna pursed her lips and scrutinized him.

His eyes showed a pleading look, and his temples were tinged with grey, making him seem as if he had aged ten years overnight. He no longer had his former vigor and spirit.

Enna took a deep breath and coldly put some distance between them, “Sorry, I don’t have the time.”

She still had to go back and spend time with Bobby.

And she didn’t want to waste even a second of her time on him.

She had only taken a couple of steps to walk around him when Jacob Clark, casting aside his image, once again blocked her path. Enna held back, her bright eyes sweeping over him so coldly they might freeze, and her lips parted. “Do you find it amusing to act shamelessly here, President Clark? If you think this will force me to talk to you, you’re wrong. Don’t forget, this is the company, and I can have the Security Guard pull you away at any time. I didn’t want to embarrass you, but if you insist on doing so, there’s nothing I can do about it.”

That damned girl was even threatening to call the Security Guard! Jacob Clark felt a surge of anger and, before Enna could call the guard, he played his trump card, “I wanted to talk to you about your mom. She had something to tell you before she passed away.”

Enna stopped in her tracks but wasn’t fooled, “Do you think I would believe you?”

“It’s true. She told me this when she was eight months pregnant with you. I think it’s something you should know.”

“What is it?”

“Let’s find somewhere to have a drink,” Jacob Clark suggested, seizing the opportunity.

Enna frowned, thought for a moment, and said, “Fine, but I will choose the place, and it must be somewhere public.”

She had expected Jacob Clark would not agree, but to her surprise, he immediately accepted, “Fine!”@@novelbin@@

“Also, we’ll take separate cars, I’ll drive my own,” Enna took an extra precaution.

A fleeting gleam passed through Jacob Clark’s eyes, and he nodded, “Whatever makes you comfortable. I just want to tell you what your mom said to you, that’s all.”

Enna scrutinized him once more and then brushed past him to her car.

Jacob Clark followed suit and drove his car out as well.

Enna was driving an off-road Land Rover, which didn’t quite match her image but had the highest safety rating, while Jacob Clark was driving a Bentley. The two cars set off from the company one after the other, heading towards the City Center…
