Bride of Retribution: Aloof Billionaire's Dominant Game

Chapter 866: Chapter 455: You Can’t Fully Trust What He Says

Even though Miss Jane’s personal safety won’t be attacked or be in danger, going out for dinner with a man like this definitely isn’t a good idea.

Usually, when Miss Jane wears short skirts, no matter how beautiful her legs are, they don’t dare to glance at them. After all, she’s Mr. Hughes’ woman. But now, under their watch, she’s going out for dinner with a stranger. The most pressing thing now is to immediately report to Mr. Hughes. If the boss allows his woman to have dinner with this man, they naturally won’t oppose it.

If he’s unwilling, how can they bring Miss Jane back? She would be displeased, and just the thought of it is indeed frustrating. Following a woman, they’d rather follow Mr. Hughes, who acts swiftly and directly.

No matter the difficulty, they still had to make this call. Failing to call would make them unable to take responsibility if anything happened.

"Mr. Hughes, Miss Jane met a man in the supermarket who claimed to know her. They’re now having dinner together." The bodyguard stopped at this point, knowing when to say just enough.

In the office, the man received the call and upon hearing the news, his entire body tensed. Originally lounging lazily on the sofa, his body shot up like an arrow ready to be released, quickly heading towards the door, disappearing from the office in the blink of an eye.

Alexander looked at the scene before him as if witnessing a magic trick, snorting internally. Are you flaunting your speed? Or perhaps your stamina? Displaying the length of your legs? It’s downright ghostly, vanishing without even saying goodbye. If he hadn’t known Joshua Hughes for so many years, he’d almost believe what Taoist Johnson said was true. He’s not haunted by ghosts, he’s entangled by Fox Spirit.

"What’s his name?" Joshua pressed the elevator button while asking, gripping the phone so tightly that his knuckles turned white. The phone nearly got deformed in his big hand.

He knew clearly that any slight carelessness would result in a total failure.

"His name is Beckett Wright, and he has a photo with Miss Jane," the bodyguard truthfully reported all recent occurrences.

"Send me the name of the restaurant," he quickly headed towards the parking lot, hoping to be on time, hoping this Beckett Wright wouldn’t cause trouble.

Outside the supermarket was a small square that belonged to a high-spending area. Along the square’s edge, there was a nice restaurant. In the open kitchen, an Italian handsome man was roasting croissants, with fragrant coffee wafting through the air. In the pan, authentic Italian pasta was being cooked. "Is this okay to eat?" Beckett Wright asked Avery Jane with a gentle smile.

"Sure, I want a croissant and a seafood spaghetti please." Avery Jane eyed the freshly baked, golden crispy croissant, instantly craving it.

They found a spot by the window and sat down. "Have you known me for long?" Avery Jane looked at the man before her, trying to find some familiar image from the depths of her memory, but there was none. She had truly forgotten thoroughly.

"Not very long, I met you last year." Beckett Wright ordered and handed the menu to the waiter, looking at Avery Jane, wondering what she’s like now. Could she have truly forgotten everything from the past? If so, perhaps it’s not a bad thing, at least she won’t remember those humiliating incidents. Even if Avery Jane didn’t tell him, he knew that time wasn’t easy for her.

"Oh." Avery Jane lowered her head in disappointment, drinking water. She wanted to know everything about her past, but this man might just be a "new friend" she met last year.

"What’s wrong?" Beckett Wright asked with concern as her gaze seemed to dim, sensing she might be feeling a bit down.

"I thought you already knew me for a long time." Avery Jane leaned back in her chair, her voice sounding a bit helpless, her expression somewhat indifferent.

Beckett Wright smiled, comforting her, "I see, you want to find a friend who’s known you for a long time? I can find one for you. She’s your good friend. I got to know you through her." As long as her wishes are within his ability, he’s willing to fulfill them for her, and merely finding someone is not difficult for him.

"Really, there’s really someone who knows me for a long time?" Avery Jane spoke happily, her disappointment instantly vanished.

"Really, she’s on a business trip. Within a couple of days, when she returns, I’ll bring her to meet you." Angela Scott invited him for coffee before her trip, recommending someone for summer product endorsement. But these days, she’s overseas. Angela Scott has been rapidly promoted at M.C, like riding a rocket, even bought a house. It’s said her brother is working abroad. He admires her a bit; she’s indeed very hardworking and ambitious. However, she’s not the type he likes.
