Chapter 247: I Don't Understand 1

Collin said to the phone, "...I have no food allergy ... I like ... I also like ... So many things? I'm looking forward to it ... Well, I'll see you tomorrow."

After Collin hung up the phone, Jaquan asked, "Will you hang out with a woman?"

Actually, he just asked casually, not thinking that Collin had had a girlfriend. To his surprise, Collin nodded and said, "Yes."

Jaquan wanted to ask more, but Collin looked at his watch and said, "Time is running out. Hurry up and eat."

Since they communicated through phones, she couldn't be someone from the hospital. However, Collin rarely attended parties outside because of his work. Therefore, it truly surprised him that he had a girlfriend. And it seemed that Collin was very satisfied.

Beforehand, the only woman that could satisfy Collin was Emma...

However, that was impossible. Jaquan quickly denied it.

Even himself didn't know whether the subconscious denial was the reassurance of Collin or the trust in Emma.

During their meal, many nurses made eyes at them, but the two of them were used to it. Occasionally, Collin tilted his head and smiled at the nurses, which would quicken their heartbeat immediately.

"Don't flirt in front of me." Jaquan put down his chopsticks and loosened his tie with his slender fingers. He unbuttoned two more buttons, causing the women over there to exclaim instantly. He calmly stated the truth, "You are no match for me."

Collin was wordless.

When Jaquan returned to the office, he saw a familiar figure standing downstairs. At first, he thought that he had mistaken, but he confirmed it when he approached her.

"Arabella?"

Arabella probably came from the company. She still wore a formal suit with only a down jacket over it, holding a cup of hot drink. She may have been standing outside for quite some time, for her lips were blue with cold.

"You came to see me?" Jaquan walked closer and asked, "Why didn't you call me?"

Arabella looked at him, "I did, but you didn't answer."

She was referring to the phone call she made that night four days ago. However, Jaquan had long forgotten it, for he had been busy with his client's lawsuit these days. Afterwards, he had to keep going to the hospital to follow up because of his client's car accident. As a result, he was so busy that he forgot about Arabella.

"Sorry, I forgot." Jaquan browsed through his phone for quite a while before he found the record. It was already four days ago.

Arabella sighed with relief. Then she seemed to think of something that she became a little nervous. "Have you eaten yet?"

"Yes."

"Alone?"

Jaquan felt that the question she asked was a little strange, so he couldn't help but look up at her, only to see her slightly anxious expression. She was nervous. What for?

"No, two people."

After Jaquan finished his sentence, Arabella smiled stiffly and asked somewhat uneasily, "Is it Mandy Ethel?"

"Who?" Jaquan didn't know who she was talking about. "I had the meal with Collin. What's wrong?"

"I see." Arabella answered. Not knowing whether she felt lucky or pleased, she then asked tentatively, "Didn't you have a meal with Mandy that day? She even posted it on Twitter. Aren't you ... dating?"

Jaquan was actually very familiar with Arabella's expression. Usually, women who wanted to approach him and woo him would have such a reserved and shy posture. And they would try their best to compress their questions as if they didn't care.

He suddenly understood why Arabella came to him. Was it because he didn't answer her phone call four days ago? Or was she unhappy at his having dinner with Mandy?

No. What she cared about right now was who he was dating.

With so many years of hard work, Jaquan couldn't attract the slightest bit of attention from Arabella. But recently, he had accidentally aroused her care and concern. She even asked him with such an expression and posture, as if she was facing Vincent.

Jaquan suddenly laughed.

Arabella was stunned and asked nervously, "Are you dating?"

Jaquan shook his head. He still smiled, as if what he had spent most of his life's energy on the success. Seeing Arabella's concern, he was finally filled with satisfaction.

He finally had this day.

The day when Arabella liked him.

But strangely enough, he felt no excitement or happiness besides satisfaction at this moment, not knowing whether it was because he spent too much time, or he was certain that Arabella would like him. It seemed to happen without extra effort, and all of this was natural, as if he had won the case for his client and he had known the outcome all along. He had no unexpected surprises, just relief and a sense of satisfaction.

Seeing him shake his head, Arabella sighed a relief to herself, "You scared me. I thought you were really..."

"Arabella," Jaquan suddenly called her.

Arabella was stunned for a moment before replying, "What's wrong?"

"I still have things to do in the afternoon. I have to go back to the company first." Jaquan glanced at his watch. "Let's have lunch together tomorrow."

"... Alright."

After Jaquan left, Arabella stood there in a daze for a long time before realizing what she had just agreed to. What did Jaquan mean? Was it a date? It should be different from any previous meals, right?

Was it a date?

Arabella was easily distracted at work these days, not thinking about Vincent, but Jaquan. She wondered that Jaquan used to be on call and would always answer calls as fast as possible, but these days, for some reason, after blacklisting his WeChat account last time, his attitude quickly changed. He was no longer as enthusiastic, but kept her at an arm's length. She had personally defriended him, but she checked many times at night, wanting him to befriend her. For several nights in a row, she dreamed that Jaquan was hugging Mandy. They were so sweet that Jaquan ignored her despite her scream. After she woke up from her dream, there was indeed not a single text message or call on her phone. Jaquan had not contacted her for four whole days. In the past, he wished he could spend twenty-three hours a day with her. But these days, he had left her alone ruthlessly.

Arabella should have held back, but she was afraid, afraid that Jaquan would really date with Mandy. She didn't know why, but she just didn't want to see such a scene.

When she heard Jaquan's denial, she was exhilarated in her heart, but she did not show it on her face. However, when Jaquan invited her to lunch tomorrow, she really revealed a smile. When she knew clearly what happened, she felt that something was wrong with her.

Didn't she like Vincent? What was going on now?

Jaquan also felt strange when he returned to the office. 'Shouldn't I be very happy and looking forward to it? Why would I still think about work and clients?'
