Jade thought it might be rude and irresponsible of her to call her boss over the phone and ask for the day off without completing the task that was assigned to her. She decided to sign the documents with Jake and report back to the office before asking for an emergency day off. Hopefully her boss might agree.
She understand why the confused look on Jake's face. The man look shocked by what she had said, but why was that? He knew what she was here so why the look? Jade didn't know what to make of it.
"Mr Jake?" Jade called out when Jake just stared at her unflinchingly.
Jake didn't expect things to turn out like this. He had thought about this well and hard and that's why he had asked Patrick to take care of things at Jade's company.
He could tell this was about her work. Of course she would want to return back to the office. But what was taking Patrick so long? He should as well consider himself a dead man if Jade should leave.
