Chapter 1364
"Anyway, I''m hosting a private reception at the Cosmo Pavilion tomorrow night, Mr. Johnston. I hope
you won''t let me down. This is the invitation to the reception.’
Fiore gently ced the invitation card down onto Jared''s hand.
Jared stopped working, caught a glimpse of the invitation card next to him, and was about to refuse,
when he was interrupted by Fiore. “Mr. Johnston, I already know that your schedule is free tomorrow
night, so don''t you dare think about declining it.”
Jared looked into Fiore''s eyes; he had been covered.
‘How could I? I will be there." Jared looked at her politely and said.
‘Are you bringing Miss Riddle with you too?" Fiore looked into Jared''s eyes and asked.
‘It depends. She has been quite busy as of recent."
‘Oh, by the way, I heard Mr. Johnston Sr. has been discharged from the hospital today. It seems that
he''s recovering well." Fiore asked, having suddenly remembered about it.
‘Yes, thank you for your concern, Miss Fisher. It''s good to know that you''re even aware of my grandpa''s
discharge from the hospital." Jared unconsciously darted her a fleeting nce.
‘She seems to have a lot of eyeliner on,’ he thought. ‘She seems to be very interested in my affairs.’
"Mr. Johnston Sr.''s discharge from the hospital happens to be major news, so naturally, I got to know
about it. If it was not because of the project getting in the way, I would also have paid him a visit when
he got discharged,” Fiore said, expressing her intentions clearly to Jared.
‘Oh.’ Jared looked at her.
Fiore was trying her best to mask her concern, in fear that Jared would think that she was being
nosy. She just wanted to know more about him, so that she could have more to talk about with him.
It was then that the assistant entered the office to deliver her the coffee.
Looking at Fiore with a face full of guilt, she said, “I''m sorry Miss Fisher. I had something very
important to take care of earlier. Here''s the coffee you''ve requested."
"It''s okay." Fiore took the cup and ced it on Jared''s desk.

"Mr. Johnston will drink it for me. I won''t stay here any longer as I have other matters to attend to.”
Fiore gave Jared onest nce, before turning around and walking out of the office.
“Help Miss Fisher out and bring the box of wine to her car," Jared ordered.
‘Yes, sir." The assistant lifted the case of wine and followed Fiore out of the room.
Meanwhile, he looked at the cup of coffee on the table before picking it up and taking a sip, ‘Not bad at
all.’
Then, he caught a glimpse of the invitation in his periphery as he ced the cup of coffee down before
continuing to work.
Time passed in a sh, and soon after, the office hours ended. Jared stood up and stretched his
muscles, noticing that the buildings were brightly lit, with the entire city spruced up with lights. Seeing
this, he sorted through the processed documents before dialing his assistant’s number.
“What do you need, Mr. Johnston?" The assistant respectfully asked as he stood in front of Jared.
"Those are the documents that have been processed. You can proceed with these." Jared pointed at
the stack of files by the table.
"Okay, is there anything else?" The assistant picked the file up and looked at Jared as he asked.
"Do I not have anything scheduled for tomorrow night?" Jared asked, ‘How would Fiore know
something I didn''t?*
"Yes, you have nothing nned for tomorrow night. Do you need me to arrange something for you?"
"That wouldn''t be necessary. Anyway, off you go.” Jared said, prompting his assistant to leave with the
documents.
Then, he whipped his phone out and called Nicole, "Have you gotten off work yet?”
"Not yet. Are you?" Nicole asked.
"Yeah. Should I pick you up now or shall I do itter?"
Nicole looked at the pile of work she had in her hands, before catching a glimpse of the time and
replying, "Come pick me up in an hour."
