Chapter 1219
Chase picked up the phone instantly. “What’s up? You’re calling back already; did you miss me that
much?”
Belinda sounded a little peeved. “Chase, we don’t have any beef, do we? Why are you messing with
my boyfriend?”
As Chase was heading to the parking garage with his car keys in hand, heughed out loud at her
question. “We didn’t have any beef before, but you just pped me and publicly called me a jerk. I
reckon that counts as beef now. And you may not know this, but I can hold a grudge.”
Belinda furrowed her brows. “I pped and insulted you because you were harassing me. If you want
revenge, take it out on me. Don’t mess with my boyfriend; he has no clue what’s going on.”
Chase chuckled. “How I seek my revenge really depends on my mood. Anyway, I’ll let you lovebirds be.
Catch youter.”

And with that, he hung up.
Belinda was fuming. She regretted ever falling for such a pretentious gentleman.
But had she heard him correctly? Chase said he would see herter.
He must be joking.
After snapping back to her senses, Belinda handed the phone back to Jacob. “Don’t worry, Chase
won’t mess with you.”
However, Jacob looked a bit anxious and sounded a tad reproachful. “Belinda, how could you talk to
Mr. Larios like that?”
He had assumed that Belinda wanted his phone so she could exin to Mr. Larios that she wasn’t
actually insulting him. Instead, she had gone and sted him again. He still had to go back to work.
Belinda blinked at him. “Wasn’t I standing up for you?”
Jacob sighed. “Even if you were, you can’t talk to my boss like that. You don’t work at thepany
anymore, but I still do. What if Mr. Larios fires me because of you? I…”
Belinda frowned at him.
Realizing he was out of line, Jacob quickly changed his tone. “I’m sorry, Belinda. I’m not ming you.
It’s just that this job wasn’t easy to get, and I lost my cool.”
After hearing his apology, Belinda shook her head ruefully. “It’s my fault. I didn’t consider your feelings
and acted impulsively. I’ve made things difficult for
you.
Jacob, worried about losing his job and potentially his hard-won girlfriend, quickly tried to appease her.
“Belinda, don’t overthink it. I’m not ming you… I’m just concerned about how I’ll support us if I lose
my job. I’m not alone anymore; I have a girlfriend. Without a job or an ie, I’d feel ashamed being
with you.”
Belinda adamantly shook her head again. “Jacob, you can’t think like that. Even if you do lose your job,
I won’t look down on you. Don’t worry; if Chase fires you because of me, I won’t let you stay
unemployed. I’ll ask my uncle to find you a position at hispany.”
Jacob’s eyes lit up. “Really? But I’m not sure if your uncle would ept me.”
Belinda gave Jacob’s shoulder a reassuring pat. “Don’t worry! If I ept you, my uncle won’t refuse
you. He adores me. He may seem stern and indifferent, but he’ll grant any request I make.”
Jacob breathed a sigh of relief. “Belinda, I envy you. With Mr. nchet as your uncle, you’re fearless.”
Belindaughed. “Are you nuts? What’s there to be envious of? Once we’re married, my uncle will be
your uncle too, right? He’ll treat you well.”
Jacob wrapped his arms around Belinda tightly. “Belinda, thank you. I’m just an ordinary employee, but
you still epted me as your boyfriend. I’m truly grateful.”
Belinda didn’t struggle or reciprocate the hug, her body stiffening slightly.
“Alright, we should go in now. We can’t keep them waiting.”
