Chapter 145
âThanks to you, I able to prepare by reviewing the nanotechnology materials you showed me in
advance
Otherwise, she might have been harassed by Ann embarrassed during the meeting.
âJackson, are we still collaborating with Universe Blade Group on this project?â
Jackson reached out and tousled her hair, his eyes soft like he was looking at a cherished treasure, âWhat do you think?â
âBusiness is business, personal matters are personal. We have to separate them.â
Jackson lightly agreed and then said, âAlright, letâs see Universe Blade sincerity. However, Gilly. can I discuss with you?â
Gilda looked up at him, her eyes like a clear pool of water, and Jackson felt his heart skip a beat.
Some things needed to be said eventually.
âCan you change how you address me in the future?â
Gildaâs expression momentarily froze, then she showed a big question mark. Before she could speak, Jackson continued, âFrom now on, just call me Jack.â
A hint of surprise flickered in Gildaâs eyes. âJack?â
Jackson was quite satisfied with this address âYes thatâs it.â
However, Gilda felt uncomfortable with it.
They had grown up together, and the term âJacksonâ had already become a habit, deeply ingrained in her. It was hard to change it all of a sudden.
âBut it feels strange.â
âYouâll get used to it. It will become a habit one day.â
As he spoke, Jacksonâs mood visibly improved. âLetâs go, Iâll send you home.â
With that, Jackson took her hand, his palm warm and reassuring. It was different from the coldness Jensen used to convey, making her instinctively want to withdraw.
But Jackson held her hand firmly.
Watching the two of them leave, Jensen who was standing nearby frowned, exuding a chilly aura that made Lanny shiver involuntarily.
Chapter 145
Carefully tending to Jensen, Lanny suggested, âMr. Harrington, shall we go back too?
However, Jensenâs gaze remained fixed on Gildaâs direction, even after they left. The anger in him didnât dissipate, eventually turning into a faint sense of sadness..
âLanny, do you think I was really such a jerk in the past?â
This question caught Lanny off guard.
If anyone was a jerk in his eyes, it was Jensen, especially with his infidelity during his marriage, which couldnât be forgiven.
But Lanny couldnât say .
As he studied Jensenâs expression, he noticed a sense of loss he had never seen before.
It was an emotion Jensen, whom he had followed for years, had never displayed. And it was all because of Gilda
Carefully, Lanny spoke up. âMr. Harrington, who is without fault? The past is the past. If you truly want to win back Ms. Lynch, just show her your sincerity. Her heart isnât made of stone. She will be moved by your sincerity.â
These words ignited a tiny flame of hope in Jensenâs heart.
âDo you really think â
Not wanting to extinguish his hope, Lanny continued, âBut, Mr. Harrington, thereâs something I must say. In your three years of marriage with Ms. Lynch, there were many unresolved issues, especially⦠with Ms. Donovan! After all, you and Ms. Donovan⦠you had a child together. Ms. Harrington might not be able to overlook that
As these words sank in.
Jensenâs eyes dimmed.
He couldnât help but smile bitterly,
âDo you think she would care?â
