Forceful Marriage: Young Master's Mute Wife นิยาย บท 35

“Ms. Jackson, your tea.” A secretary walked in, delivering Kim a cup of freshly brewed tea.

“Thank you.” Kim smiled and reached out to the cup. When the bracelet slipped down her fair forearm, the silver dazzled under the light.

The secretary noticed the bracelet and she exclaimed in envy, “Wow, what a beautiful bracelet!”

As Kim glanced at her bracelet, she tried her best to hold her delight back while beaming gently. “I like it too.”

The secretary praised her bracelet again before she went back to work. After she left, Kim curled her lips into a smirk. She had a sip of tea and then sized up the bracelet on her wrist, looking even happier than before.

When she put the cup of tea down and softly touched the emerald charm on it, her smile became even sweeter.

‘Tiffany and Co.’s latest design! It seems like he’s paying attention.’

Joe came into the lounge and saw Kim admiring the bracelet on her wrist. His face twitched at the sight of her infatuated look.

He had heard the secretaries gossiping in the pantry earlier. They had said that if it was not for Kim, the super tense working environment might have lasted even longer.

Joe carefully sized Kim’s expression up. ‘Does she really think she’s the one who saved everyone and deserves the biggest credit?’

Joe quietly walked over.

When Kim noticed his presence, she quickly returned to her usual self and smiled at him. “Joe.”

Joe nodded in acknowledgment. “Ms. Jackson, it’s a surprise to see you here in the office. Aren’t you busy?”

“Come on, Joe, stop picking on me. What else could I be busy with?” Kim said with a smile. She waved the documents in her hand and said, “I’ve got more information on the project. Is Mr. Ferguson around?”

Of course, he knew the intention of Kim’s visit. He looked at his watch and feigned regret. “Mr. Ferguson is still having a meeting. I think it might take a while.”

Joe raised his brow but did not comment further. He nodded and said, “Okay, I’ll tell you when Mr. Ferguson is done with the meeting.”

Just when he wanted to go back to work, Kim suddenly thought of something and held him back. “Joe, if you don’t mind, I’d like some of your time.”

Joe turned around and said, “What’s wrong?”

Kim had always wanted to build a relationship with the company. It had been her goal since a long time ago.

She passed the document to Joe and said with a flattering smile, “Since Mr. Ferguson is still having a meeting, as his right-hand man, his trustworthy assistant, can I ask you to have a look at the proposal? I want to listen to your opinion. If it’s not good enough, I’ll know which part to change.”

Joe took the document and carefully glanced at the dark blue cover.

Truth be told, aside from her scheming, Kim was quite a capable person.
