Chapter 305: 305 Matchmaking Gone Wrong

Chapter 305 Matchmaking Gone Wrong　　Harry decided to first take Jade to Tom's office with the hope that either Tom or Bryan would get their sister off him.

"Aww, look who we have here, the handsome Hank brothers," Jade said as she happily walked into Tom's office to join him and Bryan.

"What are you doing here?" Bryan asked as he looked at Jade, whose arm was still linked with Harry's, and then at Harry, who had left only a moment ago claiming he had work to attend to. 

"I came to look around the company where I might be working soon," Jade said with a smile as she stubbornly held on to Harry's arm while he kept trying to free his arm from hers, "What are you both celebrating? And who owns this extra glass?" She asked as she picked up the glass of wine that Harry had abandoned earlier and took a sip from it. 

Tom watched them both in amusement as Harry begged him with his eyes to save him from her, but he pretended not to notice.

"You will be working here soon?" Bryan asked Jade before turning to look at Tom, "You offered her a job too? Did dad and mom put you up to this?" Bryan asked, and Jade raised a brow.

"Too? You offered Bryan a job?" Jade asked Tom curiously before she turned to Harry, "Was that why you offered me that job? Tom asked you to?" Jade asked, and both Tom and Harry sighed.

"It was purely coincidental. I only just found out this morning that Harry offered you a job, and I also just told him I offered Bryan a job. So can you both stop making useless assumptions?" Tom asked in a slightly impatient tone.

"You can't blame us for assuming so. You would think so too if you were in our shoes," Jade said with a smile, "By the way, what position did you offer Bryan?" She asked curiously.

"You can either stay back here and talk to them about it while I return to my office, or you can leave that discussion for later and talk with them when I'm not in a hurry to get back to work," Harry said quietly since neither of her brothers was willing to rescue him from her.

"Right. I wish I could hang around and talk to you both, but I dragged uncle Harry from his precious office to show me around the company. So let's talk after I'm done. You're still around, right?" She asked Bryan, and he gave her a nod.

"Good then. See you both soon," she said with a small wave as she turned around and dragged Harry out with her. 

"Why does your friend look scared of her?" Bryan asked the moment they shut the door behind them, and Tom chuckled.

"Because he is obviously scared of her," Tom said with a grin that left Bryan curious.

"Why is he scared of her?" He asked with interest.

"He is not used to having ladies cling to him that way. He's very old-fashioned."

"Old-fashioned in what sense?" Bryan inquired, and Tom looked at him for a moment.

"He is not the sex before marriage kind of guy," Tom explained, and Bryan's eyes widened in surprise. 

"Harry?" He asked in disbelief, and Tom gave him a nod.

"Wow!" Bryan exclaimed as he looked at the door as though he could see Harry. Now he could understand why Tom had felt confident enough to send Harry to Jade and why Tom believed that Harry was good for Jade. 

While the brothers were busy discussing him, Harry tried to keep as much distance as he could between himself and their sister as he showed her around the different parts of the building. The last thing he wanted was for the staff to see him walking around the office premises so intimately with a woman. It was only a matter of time before they would find out who the woman was, and then rumors would start, which would only become worse when she eventually resumed work here if she does. 

By the time he led her out of the part of the building that housed the legal team, Jade was already feeling tired and hungry, so she turned to him, "I'm tired, and I'm hungry. Can we have breakfast together before you return to your office?" She asked hopefully, patting her abdomen to show him that she was hungry.

"You know where the cafeteria is…."

"No. I don't want to eat alone. I want to have breakfast with you for one last time before I leave," Jade said, blinking rapidly at him until he sighed.

"Fine. Let's go," he said as he walked ahead of her, and once again, she ran up to him.

Thinking that she had given him enough space and now he seemed relaxed, she tried to reach for his arm, but before she could do so, he gave her a warning look to stop her.

"Fine," Jade said as she raised her hands in surrender and then dropped them beside her as she walked next to him silently.

"You know, I just remembered something funny about last night. You were really cool…." Jade started once they got to the cafeteria, and Harry's heart skipped a beat.

She remembered something? What did she remember? He wondered and swallowed nervously as he waited for her to go on.

Jade grinned as she looked into his face, "I still can't believe how you handled that brat," Jade said, making Harry want to faint with relief.

So that was what she was referring to? Thank goodness! Harry cleared his throat, "She was rude. I had to put her in her place," Harry said, and Jade smiled.

"You actually didn't put her in her place. You threw her out of the place," Jade said with a giggle, and Harry smirked as they walked up to the counter to get their meal.

The lady behind the counter was surprised to see Harry, and she smiled at him nervously, "What can I get you, sir? You can sit down while I serve you," she offered, wanting him to leave the counter before he would find something to query her over.

"Do you serve every staff that comes in here to eat?" Harry asked calmly, and she shook her head.

"It's because it is your first time…."

"Then you don't have to serve me either," Harry cut in before she could finish, and then he turned to Jade, "What do you want to eat?" Harry asked Jade, who was busy watching the woman who was beginning to sweat. 

"Serve us your best dishes," Jade told the lady with a polite smile before turning to Harry, "Why don't we let her serve us?" She asked, and before Harry could refuse, she took his arm and dragged him away from the counter to the relief of the lady. 

"If you like being served so much, you could have just sat down here and waited for me to serve you. You shouldn't stress the lady," Harry scolded, and Jade snorted.

"You were the one who was stressing her. You were making her uncomfortable. Can't believe you are so ignorant," Jade tutted. 

"Me? I made her uncomfortable? How? I was only trying to be considerate," Harry said with a slight frown.

"I'm sure you were. She would rather serve you, so sit down," Jade said, and without waiting for him to pull out a seat for her, she sat down. 

Harry glanced at the counter before sitting down, "Aurora gave me a call last night," he said conversationally, and Jade raised a brow.

"She did? What did she want?" She asked, surprised. She had completely forgotten about Aurora.

"I promised to go out with her before returning to Ludus, so she called to remind me," Harry explained, and Jade nodded.

"Too bad for her that you returned already," Jade said with a small smile.

"Yeah. But she agreed to pay me a visit. So we are still going to go out as planned," he said with a shrug, and Jade gave him a nod.

"She really likes you, I suppose," Jade said, and Harry's lips twitched. 

Maybe it was best if he talked about another lady with her and even went out with other ladies. That should straighten him out, "Yeah, I think so."

"So? You like her?" Jade asked, and Harry shrugged. 

"I wouldn't know if I don't go out with her. Isn't that what you said? But she's a lovable person, so I don't think getting along with her would be difficult. At least she is more reasonable than Tanya," Harry said, and Jade tried not to let his words upset her. It was her fault, after all.

"Well, if you're planning to go out with her because I forced you to, you don't need to do that anymore…."

"No. I'm not going on a date with her because you forced me to. She is beautiful, intelligent, upfront, and fun to talk with," Harry assured her, even though he knew that he enjoyed talking to Jade more than anyone else. The only problem he had with her was he couldn't breathe when she was too close to him, and he didn't want to get into that sort of relationship with her regardless of whatever he was feeling. 

Besides, even if he was willing to risk it, he didn't think that she saw him that way, and he also wasn't sure she was ready for a relationship yet. And even if she was, he doubted that she would be willing to be in a relationship with him. There was no way she would have set him up on a blind date if she was the least bit interested in him.

"Oh!" Jade said with a stiff smile just as the lady came to serve them. He also thought she was beautiful and intelligent too. She wasn't sure he enjoyed talking to her as much as he did with Aurora since he always seemed in a hurry to get her to leave whenever she came around him. 

How did she end up in such a sticky situation? Thanks to her stubbornness, she had succeeded in matchmaking a guy she now wanted for herself to someone she considered her friend. What was she going to do about it?
