Chapter 28 See You Tomorrow


    Chapter 28 See You Tomorrow


    Elianna remained silent and quietly acknowledged her regrets.


    Although she was mocked, his words gave her a glimmer of hope, suggesting that he might have


    believed her.


    With numerous issues already guing her, she wanted nothing more than to avoid any further


    trouble.


    Elianna forced a fake smile. "If there''s nothing else, I should take my leave."


    "Wait a moment," Jefferson interrupted, swiftly extending his long leg to block her path.


    Reluctantly, Elianna paused, her voice dripping with forced patience. "Is there anything else?"


    Jefferson admired her guarded expression and smirked, "Tomorrow, wait for my call."


    Elianna was stunned.


    She believed she had already grasped Jefferson''s intentions earlier. Today''s encounter was


    unexpected, so what did he mean by "see you tomorrow"?


    Noticing her silence, Jefferson kindly inquired, "Or should Ie and pick you up?"


    "No!" Elianna replied abruptly.


    Her smile looked strained. If she held it any longer, it would shatter into pieces.


    "How could I trouble you? I can manage on my own," she replied.


    Receiving the expected answer, Jeffersonzily nodded.


    ...


    As soon as she left the lounge, her smile vanished.


    Silently cursing, she med the person behind that closed door!


    However, cursing alone wouldn''t resolve anything. Due to his striking social status, all she could do


    was endure!


    N?velDrama.Org is the owner.


    Actually, since her family had suffered a devastating blow, she realized that her chances of living a


    comfortable and content life were slim.


    Anyway, thanks to Albert, Elianna had managed to change into a dress in a simr color and length,


    allowing her to blend into the crowd without drawing attention to herself.


    She discreetly hid among the attendees until the banquet ended and left with the others.


    Naturally, Asher, irritated by their unpleasant phone conversation, had no desire to see Elianna off.


    Finally, Kenley appeared and clung to Asher''s arm with an air of smug superiority.


    Noticing Elianna''s pallor, she became even more delighted.


    Mistakenly assuming that Elianna was consumed by jealousy, Kenley reveled in her own imagined


    victory.


    But in fact, Elianna didn''t even notice them.


    With each step causing her trembling legs difort in her high heels, Elianna neared a stumble


    that threatened to send her sprawling.


    Fortunately, a pair of hands reached out just in time to steady her. "Be careful!"


    "Thank you," Elianna expressed her gratitude, realizing it was Brett who had supported her.


    He stood at the entrance, gracefully bidding farewell to the guests on behalf of Alicia.


    Elianna was uneasy but concealed her apprehension.


    She smiled faintly. "Mr. Patrick, I can stand on my own now."


    Brett slowly released her hands, his smile hiding a calcting glint in his eyes.


    "Ms. Gentry introduced me to so many interesting ces today, and I haven''t properly thanked you.


    How about this? Let''s exchange contact information, and I''ll treat you another time."


    Aware that he was testing her further, Elianna found his proposition reasonable and saw no excuse


    to refuse.


    Retrieving her phone and leaving her number, she nodded in agreement.


    "Mr. Patrick, nice to see you today. Let''s chat when the opportunity arises."


    "Ms. Gentry, take care," Brett bid farewell.


    ...


    Elianna forcefully closed the car door and leaned against the seat, taking a deep breath of relief.


    The banquet had already been enough to exhaust her!


    Suddenly, the phone on the passenger seat rang.


    It was N.


    "Anna, are you avable now?"


    Only then did Elianna remember N''s matter.


    Well, she couldn''t forget that she had gotten herself involved because of introducing N.


    "What''s going on?"


    "I''m leaving now. Did Jefferson bother you?"


    "No," Elianna replied.


    N let out a sigh of relief. "That''s good."


    Elianna couldn''t help but me herself a little. "It''s all my fault. If it weren''t for me, you wouldn''t


    have been involved in cleaning up the mess."


    Elianna knew she shouldn''t ask, but she still did.


    "Just now, you and Jefferson, what happened?"


    She wanted to know if anything had happened between them before her encounter with him.
