Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1190
âI've got one, Mr. Jackson! My love for you is like the eternal flame guiding me forward in the
darkest nights into your embrace...â
âCould you get any more old-fashioned? I need it to be artistic, okay? It has to make me sound
sophisticated!â Xavier wasn't satisfied with that suggestion and emphasized his request.
"Ooh, I know! There's only one thing I want to change about you, and that's your last name.â
âThat's a good one! Repeat it so I can write it down!â Xavier began scribbling into his notebook,
much to that employee's delight as he said it again.
Haha, I'm really talented at this! Since Mr. Jackson is offering us a hundred per line, I've got to come
up with a lot more!
âAll right, next!â Xavier called out to the rest of the employees.
âI have one, Mr. Jackson!â
"Me too!â
With such a huge reward for something so simple, everyone began fighting to share their pickup
lines.
"One at a time, people! There's plenty of chances for all of you!â Xavier said while glancing at the
notebook in his hand.
His assistant on the other hand, wasn't too happy as he helped calculate and keep track of the
reward.
Okay, a hundred for this guy, and two for that guy... Oh, my... This secretary has submitted ten
entries, so that's a thousand for him! Mr. Jackson, I've been working under you for a few years and
have contributed tons of ideas, but you've never even given me a bonus... Can you imagine how
miserable I feel...
In the meantime, Hannah had fallen asleep in the VIP ward. Her body was still fairly weak after the
surgery, so she got tired after a brief chat with Fabian.
Her breathing was shallow, and she had Fabianâs palm sandwiched between hers as she lay on her
side.
Fabian let out a chuckle when he saw her eyelids flutter like a butterflyâs wings and gently caressed
her cheek.
As expected of my woman... She still looks so charming even when sheâs asleep! That smooth and
fair complexion, that faint smile...
He then leaned in closer and gave her a quick kiss on forehead.
"All right, folks! We're finally done for the day! You can all head home now!" Xavier called out to his
employees as he closed his notebook and stood up to stretch.
After that, he left the office with the pink notebook in hand while his employees continued to
discuss.
"Huh? That's it? I've only made a thousand! I can come up with a few more!â
"Hey, don't be so greedy! I only got eight hundred, so be happy that you've made a lot more than
you would working overtime!â
"Yeah, I suppose you're right... If Mr. Jackson would just court a couple more women during his
time, we'd make a fortune!â
âHaha! If that were the case, I'd resign from my position and just work for Mr. Jackson as his pickup
line contributor!â
Wesley felt depressed when he heard what they said. He wasn't planning on coming over, to begin
with, but he did because Xavier's assistant had repeatedly asked him to. He knew how close Xavier
and his assistant were, so he didn't dare offend him for fear of losing his job.
âI'm an art major, so I really don't understand why you'd make me come here...â Wesley grumbled
to himself. I sat here for a few hours, and I haven't made a single penny out of this while they're all
making hundreds and even thousands!
