Chapter 1289 Deep Embarrassment
For a moment, the whole world seemed toe to a standstill. Therge reception room was so
silent that only the breathing of its three upants could be heard. The air was taut with
embarrassment.
Lexi stopped midway through pushing the door open and froze.
She didn''t expect to stumble upon such a scene behind the door.
"Ah!" J screamed as she came back to her senses.
She immediately pushed Brandon away, spun around and ducked behind the sofa, hiding her face.
She felt so embarrassed!

She desperately wished that she could disappear right then and there!
She had never felt that much embarrassment in her entire life!
Brandon, too, was jolted back to his senses. He coughed awkwardly and asked, "What''re you doing
here, Lexi? I thought I told you that I''d be the assistant today and that you could have the day off?"
Lexi gulped and replied in a trembling voice, "You did, but Sean asked me toe here. He...
When he got your call, he thought there was an emergency, so he asked me toe and have a
look... I didn''t expect..."
She didn''t expect that not only would there be no emergency, but also, that she''d interrupt Brandon
and J.
Lexi felt helpless. She cursed Sean bitterly in her heart.
Upon hearing her reason for being there, both Brandon and J rebuked Sean in their hearts as
well.
At that same moment, Sean, who was out on a date with Este at the amusement park, sneezed
three times in a row.
As he gazed up at the sky, he couldn''t help but think about his boss, who had just called him. He
thought of himself as an outstanding assistant who hadn''t forgotten to get someone to attend to his
boss'' issue whilst he was out on a date. He was quite certain that he''d get a promotion and a raise.
After exining herself, Lexi left as quickly as she could, scared that she''d be fired if she spent
another second there.
Noticing that J was still hiding behind the sofa, Brandon couldn''t help but feel helpless. "You
cane out now. Lexi''s gone."
With her face still buried in her palms, J remained crouched down behind the sofa, refusing to
budge.
Brandon was amused, and chuckled, "How long do you n on staying down there?"
J responded in a muffled voice, "Leave me alone. I''m too embarrassed toe out."
"Come on, don''t be like that." Brandon walked over and lifted her up. "She''s gone. Everything''s
alright." J flung herself into his arms and buried her head in his chest. "I feel so humiliated! How
do I even face Lexi tomorrow?"
Brandon wasn''t too thrilled to have been interrupted by Lexi. Upon hearing J''s worries, he said
to her bluntly, "Don''t worry about it. If you think it''ll be too hard to work with her, you can fire her. I''ll
get you a new assistant."
J quickly took a step back, out of his embrace, and said, "No way! Lexi only came here
because she was worried about us. She did nothing wrong."
Brandon pinched her nose yfully and said, "Then don''t fire her. It''s your decision. All I want is for
you to be happy."
Thinking about what had happened today, J sighed dejectedly. "Today''s been quite the day."
Brandon couldn''t help butugh. "Would you still like me to be your assistant next time?"
With a weak wave of her hand, J said, "No, Mr. Larson. You''re fired."
If she allowed Brandon to act as her assistant for a few more days, she was only going to run into
more trouble.
It was right about sunset at this time. Brandon nced at the clock on the wall, and smiled. "Well,
it''s time to get off work. My task is done. Let''s go home."
As soon as J heard the words "get off work", she felt an immediate surge of energy. After
tidying up, she took Brandon''s hand, and the couple made preparations to head home.
As they were deciding what to eat for dinner, a mysterious figure suddenly appeared in front of
them.
This took J by surprise. After taking a closer look, she realized that it was Garrett, who she
hadn''t seen for a long time.
