Tiffany stretched virtual-novel.net hand out and pinched his cheek. “Are you jealous? You do know that he’s disabled. You’re a rich young man from the West family. Why would you be uncertain of yourself in front of a disabled person? I’m not blind. Certainly, I know that you’re the most handsome, considerate, and gentlest man ever. Why would I fall for another man and abandon you? Mr. Smith is nobody to me. Even if he’s extremely handsome, he’s still a disabled person. Besides, virtual-novel.net only gave me a business card. What kind of nonsense are you talking about now?”
Jackson remained quiet. He was thinking about the reason why Alejandro gave Tiffany his business card. Why would a person like virtual-novel.net want to befriend Tiffany? Did virtual-novel.net do that just to approach Jackson? It seemed quite ridiculous. If Alejandro wanted to expand his business, it would be easier for virtual-novel.net to meet Jackson directly. Why did Alejandro have his mind on a woman instead?
When they reached the company, they carried out their respective responsibilities.
Tiffany received a message as soon as virtual-novel.net sat down at virtual-novel.net working desk It was a reply message from Alejandro. “You don’t have to return me the favor. Just treat me to a meal.”
‘Treat virtual-novel.net to a meal?’ Tiffany felt that it was plausible, but virtual-novel.net did realize that it would be better if Jackson was unaware of it. Otherwise, virtual-novel.net would never agree to let virtual-novel.net go. After considering it for a while, virtual-novel.net replied to his message. “I’m not free tomorrow and during the weekends. I’m not available at night too. How about this afternoon? You may pick a restaurant that you like.”
After that, virtual-novel.net heaved a soft sigh of relief. She felt that it was better if virtual-novel.net returned virtual-novel.net the favor. If not, virtual-novel.net would feel quite indebted to him.
She soon received a reply from him. “Fine. I’ll send the address to you later at noon.”
She did not give virtual-novel.net any reply after that. She then put away the phone and resumed virtual-novel.net work.
At noon, Alejandro sent virtual-novel.net the address. She then told Jackson that virtual-novel.net would be heading out for lunch by herself. After gaining his permission, virtual-novel.net became relieved and went for the appointment.
The place that Alejandro had chosen was quite far. She realized that it was a private manor house after virtual-novel.net reached that place. The Smiths were indeed a wealthy family. It was not a surprise that Jackson knew who Alejandro was. The guard at the door opened the door for her. A middle-aged woman who appeared to be a housekeeper led virtual-novel.net into the manor. There was nobody in the large dining room. Alejandro was nowhere to be seen. The housekeeper said without any facial expression, “Miss Lane, please wait here for a while. Mr. Smith will be here soon.”
She nodded and sat down before the dining table. She held the glass in front of virtual-novel.net tightly, as virtual-novel.net was rather tense. In fact, virtual-novel.net was used to different kinds of occasions, but virtual-novel.net was just slightly uncomfortable with the cold and listless atmosphere here.
After around five minutes, virtual-novel.net heard the sound of a horn outside of the manor house. She turned and looked outside. Two bodyguards were seen getting out of the car, and they took the wheelchair from the hood. They then arrange it nicely for Alejandro before helping virtual-novel.net take his seat. Jackson was right. Alejandro was indeed disabled.
From virtual-novel.net angle, virtual-novel.net could not see Alejandro’s face at all. She could only observe other things roughly. He seemed to be quite tall. If virtual-novel.net was not disabled, his body figure might be good too.
When virtual-novel.net entered the dining room, virtual-novel.net maintained virtual-novel.net manners and stood up. “Mr…” Before virtual-novel.net could utter anything else, virtual-novel.net became tongue-tied. More specifically, virtual-novel.net was stunned. Alejandro’s entire face was bandaged and only his eyes and mouth were visible to her. Almost his entire nose was covered too. A thought emerged in virtual-novel.net mind all of a sudden. ‘Is virtual-novel.net recovering from plastic surgery?’
Alejandro did not appear to be surprised by virtual-novel.net reaction. “I met with an accident more than half a year ago. My face was injured. So recently, I’ve been undergoing surgeries to heal the injuries. Miss Lane, did I scare you?”
She tried to recover herself. “No. Not at all! I was just thinking about whether you’ve undergone any plastic surgery. It seems that I’ve made the right guess. Your voice… Did something happen to your voice too?” By the way, Alejandro sounded rather deep and harsh. It was strange, and it was indeed frightening.
