Chapter 107 [Bonus ]Stop Flirting Already!

Jack arrived in front of the building where Eminent Beauty, the fashion company that Celine had started for her friend was located. He parked his Bentley Continental GT and headed straight for the office.r

He had already informed Celine that he would be here. As a result, she had told him to go to the third floor, that was where her office was located. From the way that she had said it, it was obvious that she was busy with something.r

As he headed for the elevator, Jack looked around at the way that things had been decorated here. He could only say that this was indeed where fashion mattered the most.r

He could see several people moving from place to place with different clothes in their hands. There were other clothes that he could see that were a fashion that he had never seen before and had been out on display.r

Jack was amazed as he could tell that the level of this company, although it was just a start up, it was already not that bad as compared to Taren Designers.r

After feeding his eyes for a moment, he entered the elevator and headed to the third floor. When it opened, he happened to meet with Faith, Celine's assistant, or secretary? Jack wasn't sure about the relationship between the two.r

"Oh, Mr Jack, you're here already?" Faith was expecting that Jack would come here. But, he had never expected that he would be here this early.r

According to what Celine had told her, Jack was dealing with a few gangsters that were causing trouble for his stores. For him to be here this fast, wasn't he so efficient if he had already dealt with them?r

"Yes Ms. Faith. By the way, you can just call me Jack, we're an acquaintance after all." Jack smiled as he nodded.r

"Okay then. Celine is in her office, at the end of the corridor. I have something to take care of at the moment, so, I won't be able to take you there." Faith said as she looked at Jack.r

Jack wasn't sure why Faith was looking at him in such a manner. But, he still thanked her and left as he headed straight towards where she had pointed.r

Faith looked at Jack's receding back meaningfully. She thought to herself, 'Would someone that has just met the other offer help that easily? There must be something that these two are trying to hide.'r

Even as she thought of that, she still got into the elevator and left.r

…r

Jack arrived in front of an office. He found that the door was slightly open. And from the small space, he could see the figure of Celine who was immersed in some kind of paperwork.r

From this angle, he could see part of her beautiful face. Although not clearly, he could still see her beauty.r

When she was this serious with what she was doing, Jack had to admit that she was indeed a beauty. To be exact, her beauty was even more prominent when she was this serious. r

She was currently dressed officially. Although he could only see her upper part of the body as the other was hidden below the desk, he could see the white blouse that could be seen from the front.r

He observed her working, not wanting to enter, but enjoy and appreciate the beauty that he was seeing. r

As if she felt something, Celine who was immersed in the office work raised her head as she glanced at the door.r

Then, the two eyes, blue and green, met as time froze for a moment. The two held their gazes before Jack broke the silence with an awkward chuckle.r

He had been staring at the lady and she just happened to see him doing that. It was good to stare at a beauty and appreciate her. But, to be caught while staring, that was a different case.r

With his reaction speed, he could have easily shifted his gaze and pretend that he was just arriving. But, he didn't. And the reason behind that was something that he failed to understand.r

"Ahem, hello there." Jack greeted as he entered the office. The things inside were all neatly arranged, proving that Celine was a lady that loved cleanliness.r

"How long have you been staring at me like that?" Celine didn't reply to his greeting as she asked.r

"Well, about ten minutes." Jack replied honestly.r

Celine was stunned by Jack's words. To think that this guy had been staring at her like that for almost ten minutes, Celine didn't know whether to laugh or reprimand him. She then thought, 'Can you not be so honest about it?'r

"And you're proud of that?" Celine pretended to be angry at him.r

"Well, I just couldn't help it. You're such a beauty after all, I can't help but want to stare and appreciate how beautiful you are." Jack replied as he smiled awkwardly.r

From the way that she was looking at him and her tone, he felt that she was angry at the fact that he had been staring at her for that long. But, he could only blame his eyes and his tastes for beauties.r

"Tch! Men never miss words to say to a lady, " Celine clicked her tongue as she said. Then, she pointed at a seat in front of her.r

Understanding her meaning, Jack sat in front of her as he observed her working. He looked at her handwriting and was amazed. For some reason, he felt that her handwriting was just as beautiful as her.r

After about ten minutes, Celine put the document aside and looked at Jack. "Have you already dealt with the gangsters?"r

Jack nodded. "In fact, I have made them to compensate me for the losses that I have incurred so far."r

"Oh, you're fast. I'm curious, how much was the compensation?" Celine asked as she raised her brows a little, with curiosity written all over her face.r

"Three hundred million dollars and one hundred men." Jack replied nonchalantly.r

Celine's mouth went agape from shock. What did she just hear? $300M? Who was going to give that much compensation? Did they break his stores or what? But, even the stores and the groceries that he was selling were not worth that big amount of money, right?r

"Are you joking?" Celine asked.r

"Not at all, I'm saying the truth here. That's just enough compensation for the losses that I suffered from the lack of sales yesterday, and it was on a Saturday." Jack shook his head as he replied.r

Celine was speechless once again. That was just for bad sales. What if the stock was robbed, or his stores were demolished? Wouldn't he ask for at least a billion dollars for compensation?r

Celine didn't know just how right her thoughts were. Had they really destroyed the stores or robbed the stock, Jack would surely have made sure to ask them to pay a billion dollars in the least.r

The reason being that, once the stores were demolished, he would have to get new stores and renovate them once again. And, it would take some time. And the time that would be used for renovation, would be the time that he was supposed to be earning hundreds of millions.r

"It's okay if you don't want to tell me the truth then," Celine waved her hand dismissively, thinking that Jack didn't want to tell her the truth. But, she was feeling a little down that Jack didn't trust her to tell her something like that.r

Jack: "…."r

There it was again! If he told the truth, they thought that he was lying. Maybe he had to lie, that was a decision made after several trials of speaking the truth only to be dismissed as a liar.r

Seeing that silence was about to dominate the office, Jack thought of something and said, "Why don't we head out for lunch first? You haven't eaten, right?"r

Celine looked at him as she nodded in her heart, 'Seems that this guy is thoughtful too.' . "Okay, let's go, my treat this time." Celine said as she got up from her seat.r

As she stood up, she showed her curvaceous body and Jack couldn't help but stare again. What could he do? The eyes just wanted to look and they had the support of the heart. So, Mr brain was also forced to analyze the beauty even if he was opposing the idea of staring.r

"You're staring again. Aren't you tired of staring? You stared for almost ten minutes before." Celine complained jokingly. But all the same, she was happy that her charm was there and could capture Jack.r

"Well, I was staring at half of you. But now, I can stare at the full of you, two different things, completely different." Instinctively, Jack gave an honest response of what he was thinking at the moment.r

Celine was stunned by Jack's words. But, she smiled before she picked a document and threw at his face as she said, "Stop staring, let's get going already. I'm hungry."r

Jack didn't dodge at all. It was just a piece of paper, what harm could it cause if it hit him? But if he dodged, he would surely have to stop enjoying looking at her.r

He just raised his hand and caught the piece of paper and put on the desk as he continued feeding his eyes.r

Seeing Jack's action, Celine couldn't help but flash another smile before picking a file. She was just about to throw it at Jack's face when a voice came from the door.r

"Can you two stop flirting already? Aren't you supposed to be getting acquainted? How come you're behaving like lovers?" Faith said as she squinted her eyes at the two.r

Faith's words made Celine remember where she was. She blushed and returned the file back on the desk while giving Faith a stare.r

Jack didn't mind and neither did he explain about Faith's assumptions. He just said, "I'm getting acquainted here, maybe I will need to buy her a few pairs of clothes, so, it's good to get acquainted to her body."r

Jack's words caused the two ladies to blush for a moment. They couldn't help but size up Jack once again.r

Jack, not knowing that his words had caused a certain misunderstanding, he said as he headed for the door, "Let's get going for lunch then."
