Chapter 183 Suspicious Intimacy


    Upon hearing “someone else” from Lotus’s mouth, Alta guessed it was Gail.


    She felt a sudden difort and turned her head to ask, “In previous years, did he always dance with


    Gail?”


    Lotus had already considered Alta as a couple with their CEO, they just hadn’t made it public yet.


    She was certain that Alta would care about this.


    Quickly, Lotus smiled and said, “Of course not! Although it’s true that Gail had the quota in previous


    years, the CEO had to decline because of other matters these past few years.


    “But if you don’te this year, without a doubt, it will fall on Gail again!”


    After listening, Alta looked thoughtful.


    If Jason really epted dancing with Gail this year…


    As soon as she thought of Gail’s smug face, her thoughts came to a halt.


    She really didn’t want to see that woman’s victorious demeanor.


    Hence, Alta said, “Let’s see when the timees.”


    In the CEO’s office.


    Amidst his busy schedule, Jason was confirming the guest list for the annual meeting with Eaton.


    “We have invited those who should be invited, and the notifications have been sent out. It’s just these


    few quotas that are not quite certain. Mr. Hill, please have a look.”


    Jason took the paper and saw three names written on it.


    Eaton also looked and said, “One is Ms. Rogers, and the other two are the owners of ZL Company.”


    Regarding these three individuals, he had been in a dilemma for quite some time.


    Ms. Rogers had such a good rtionship with Mr. Hill. If she wasn’t invited and Mr. Hill med him, he


    would be the one to suffer…


    As for inviting the assistants from ZL Company but not the two owners, it was really hard to justify!


    Logically speaking, considering ZL Company’s current position in the business world, they didn’t


    actually qualify for this invitation.


    However, they had such close coboration.


    Because of this, Eaton was almost tearing his hair out in distress.


    Before Jason could respond, a childish voice came from outside the door, “Why are you hesitating? Of


    course, invite them all.”


    Jason looked over and saw that the two little ones hade, carrying their small backpacks.


    He immediately asked them, “Why are you at thepany instead of going home after school?”


    Lucas walked in and sat on the sofa. He confidently said, “We received help from Alta at the hospital


    earlier. Out of courtesy, we think we should show our gratitude, and that’s why wee here to invite


    her for a meal.”


    After finishing, he added, “It is L’s request.”


    Jason couldn’t help but look at his daughter. He saw the little girl nodding her head, and her face was


    full of pleading.


    He frowned, clearly showing his reluctance.


    He had suspected for a while that these two little ones had a different attitude towards Alta.


    Suspiciously affectionate!


    And now they hade specifically to invite her for a meal. This meant that they wanted to further


    close the rtionship, right?


    This was exactly what Jason didn’t want to see.


    Hence, he spoke up, “She’s working, don’t disturb her. If you want to express gratitude, I will take care


    of it.”


    Lucas shook his head vigorously in strong disagreement. He said, “Expressing gratitude requires


    sincerity and action. If it’s just giving gifts or spending money, then it’s better not to do it, so as not to


    make the person feel ufortable.”


    After lecturing, he added anotherment.


    “And besides, if daddy doesn’t even invite her to the annual meeting, how sincere can you be?”


    Beside him, L nodded vigorously in agreement.


    Even without speaking, those lively big eyes were telling “You really don’t understand!”


    Being criticized by his son and daughter, Jason found it amusing. He couldn’t help but ask back, “Does


    inviting her to attend show sincerity?”


    Upon hearing that, Lucas also asked, “Why not? Alta works in ourpany, she is part of us. It’s not


    good that you don’t even invite your own employees. Besides…”


    The little one paused for a moment and continued, “The schedule for the annual meeting includes a


    dance party. Rather than seeing daddy dance with someone else, we would much rather see you


    dance with Alta!”


    “That’s right!”


    L spoke up with her tiny voice in support and nodded her head.


    Then, she ran over, grabbed onto her daddy’s clothes. She shook her little hand while acting cute,


    saying, “Daddy, invite Alta…”


    Jason, who had always been calm andposed, couldn’t resist the consecutive sweet voices.


    Looking at the little girl by his leg, his heart softened.


    Since his daughter started going to kindergarten, she had started speaking, just as they had agreed


    before.


    Although she didn’t say much, Jason could hardly resist whenever she opened her mouth.


    Whatever request she made, he would ultimately agree, and it never failed.


    Indeed, this time was no exception.


    It didn’t take long for Jason to hold his daughter’s swaying, little hand and say, “Alright then.”


    Yay!


    The two little ones immediately showed satisfied smiles.


    “Can we invite Alta to have dinner with us tonight?”


    Jason made a sound of agreement, indicating his approval.


    Taking advantage of the opportunity, Lucas asked, “Can we go to where she works to find her?”


    “It’s almost closing time. What if the Alta leaves and we don’t make it in time?”


    Upon hearing this, Jason clearly didn’t want them to go.


    After all, it was in thepany, with many people and prying eyes.


    He didn’t want any unnecessary gossip, so he said, “I can call her and let her know.”


    Chapter 183 Suspicious Intimacy


    Lucas pouted andined in his mind.


    Daddy was really indecisive. He knew that she was their mommy. Children naturally relied on their


    mother, so it was normal to want to see her.


    However, in order to have the opportunity to spend time with their mommy, the little one had to go the


    extra mile. He said, “That’s insincere. If you invite someone for a meal, you should do it face-to-face.”


    Jason felt their persistence to see Alta. He narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, “Why are you so


    obsessed with her?”


    “You… only met her once!”


    Thetter half of the sentence was clearly emphasized.


    In that instant, the office fell suddenly quiet.Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org.


    Lucas just merely paused when facing the oppressive gaze. He calmly said, “Didn’t we say before that


    we felt a connection with thatdy?”


    “And besides, she’s really pretty! Like a fairy. I’ve never seen such a prettydy before!”


    This ttery came effortlessly.


    After listening, Jason’s expression loosened. He felt somewhat helpless and amused.


    So, these two little ones had a favorable impression of Alta just because she was good-looking?


    Thinking of this, her exquisitely beautiful face shed in his mind.


    Indeed, it was unforgettable.


    Jason had thought that the children had discovered something, but it seemed he was worried for no


    reason. He immediately granted their request and said, “You can go,


    but don’t disturb her work.”


    The two little ones patted their chests and assured him, “We definitely won’t!”


    “Then take them to find Alta.”


    Jason instructed Eaton.


    “Okay.”


    Eaton responded and led the two little ones out.


    Soon, the three of them arrived at Research Lab 2.


    Meanwhile, Alta was discussing a set of data with Lotus. Suddenly she heard the exmations from


    her colleagues and respectful voices calling out, “L, Lucas.”
