Meeting an old friend
It was still 2 o’clock in the afternoon so Shaun and the rest in the recently concluded meeting planned to celebrate discreetly in one of the nearby restaurants.
‘Babe, I will need to take off around 5 PM. Some of his (Mr. Whitebeard) assets are yet to be liquidated so I need to sign some paperwork. I might be home late so don’t stay up waiting for me, okay?’, Shaun softly whispered in Rose’s ears.
Maybe because Rose was very excited and happy about the merging of their companies, she was not able to control her wine intake.
So when she felt Shaun’s warm breath beside her ears, she suddenly got warmer inside. With a grudging look, she replied by whispering back-
‘We are supposed to be celebrating back home. I even have our attendants prepare some food… But since it’s about Mr. Whitebeard’s stuff, I understand. Wake me up when you get home, okay?’
