"You don't have to do this, sir." Jade wiggled trying to get away from the man's grasp.
"No, I insist. It's already late and I want to make sure that you go home safe." Jess, her manager, held her arm and gently pulls her to the lobby. His car was already parked just outside the building.
Jade didn't know that Jess have been patiently waiting for her outside the staff room. She spent almost 30 minutes daydreaming inside before deciding to leave the building. Marcus should be in his room by now so the chance of her meeting the guy anywhere could be lesser.
Yeah, it's almost eleven in the evening but good thing there still a lot of cabs passing by in front of the building. She can just get one.
Unfortunately, her plans failed upon seeing the worried Jess. Not that she dislikes him but the fact that she doesn't want to give him false hope matters to her greatly. If only they can stay as friends then Jade would definitely get along with him.
