Chapter 85 Jackson Returning from a Business Trip
During the week of Jackson’s business trip, Elaine would call him every night. However, Jackson had always been quiet. Every time, she was the one who spoke. He listened quietly. After she finished a sentence, he would softly say, “Yes.”
This feeling was wonderful. The two of them clearly did not love each other, but this warm and comforting way of getting along made them feel at ease.
Elaine stood in front of the window and looked at the sparkling stars outside. The night wind fluttered the curtains.
She fildled with the calla lilies on the windowsill with one hand and held the phone to her ear with her right hand. She was in a good mood “The moonlight tonight is not bad. Did you see it?”
Jason was silent for a moment. “Sehull, it’s daytime now.”
With his reminder, she suddenly remembered the time difference between home and abroad. She gently slapped her forehead and let out a soft cry.“I forgot. Did I disturb your work?”
The person on the other end of the line chuckled. His extremely light voice was crisp and mellow. “There’s a video conference later.”

She asked, “When are you coming back?” When she asked, she suddenly realized that she had crossed the line. She quickly added, “I miss you.”
Jackson’s voice was gentle. “The day after tomorrow.”
She said tentatively, “I’ll go get the plane. Is that okay?”
He said lightly, “Work hard. I’ll bring you a gift. “She knew that there was no point in saying anything more. Moreover, the pick–up was just talk. The two of them chatted for a while more before ending the call because Jackson was about to hold a video conference.
During Jackson’s absence, Mamie often came to Mason Group, but not to look for Jackson, but to look for Elaine.
Perhaps she had calculated the time. Every time it was almost time to knock off at Elaine, she would appear outside the office and ask her out for afternoon tea or dinner.
Those who didn’t know better would think that the two of them were very close friends.
Actually, the two of them did not have much of a relationship.
There were very few people in the café in the afternoon. Elaine stirred the coffee in his cup. “Ms. Howard, Mr. Mason will be back tomorrow. The flight is at 230 p.m. “In the past few days, Mamie had been

For example, he didn’t like to add sugar to his coffee, he didn’t like to be disturbed when he was working, he didn’t like unreasonable women, and so on.
In public, he was her boss. She had to keep her mouth shut to protect his privacy.
Personally, her relationship with him was not over yet. Naturally, she would not “give him away“.
When Mamie heard the news that she “unintentionally” revealed, his face was filled with joy. He suddenly stretched out his arm and grabbed her hand that was stirring the coffee. They were as intimate as a pair of good sisters. “Elaine, thank you.”
Elaine was slightly stunned. He pulled his hand back unnaturally and smiled. “Ms. Howard, you’re too kind. “On the day Jackson returned, Mamie went to pick her up. However, she didn’t tell her herself. Elaine saw it in the newspaper. Other than her, Lorene also went.
The headlines in the newspaper were headlines like “The Famous Female Star in Love with the CEO of a Wealthy Family“, “The Movie Queen Lorene’s Backer Surfaces“, and so on.
