---- Chapter 847 Miranda gently took Hailey''s hand. "Hailey, no matter what has happened between you and Mr, Pilsner, we will always remember the favor he did for our family. How about this? Why don''t you give him a call and see if he has time? Your father and I would like to invite him to dinner to show our gratitude." James nodded in agreement. "That''s right, Hailey. We want to invite Mr. Pilsner to a meal. [haven''t seen him in years." Den used to be James''s student, and James had always supported him. Given Den''s past kindness to the Lambert family, this dinner was a must.
Aileen, who hadn''t gone to school in the past few days, felt like a part of the Lambert family after all the kindness they had shown her. When the family was in trouble, she knew she had to stay until things were settled before returning to the research base. Aileen smiled. "You don''t need to invite Jonah. This is just something he should do. As long as our family gets through this safely, that''s all that matters." Miranda chuckled. "No, Aileen. We can''t skip the proper etiquette. Jonah helped our family out of kindness, but we still need to show our appreciation.
It''s just the right thing to do." James added, "Aileen , we epted you as our goddaughter because we care about you, not to use you to get Jonah''s help. ---- Even now that Jonah is back, you are still part of the Lambert family." Aileen nodded firmly. "Yes!" James turned to Hailey. "Hailey, what are you waiting for? Call Mr. Pilsner now!" Hailey took out her phone. "Okay, I''ll call Mr. Pilsner right now. "Go ahead," James urged. Hailey walked aside and dialed Jonah''s number. After one ring, the phone was answered. Jonah''s deep, maic voice came through. "Hello, Ms. Young.
What can I do for you?" His voice carried a yful tone, and as it reached Hailey''s ear, it felt warm and affectionate. She couldn''t help but feel flustered. Over the past three years, his voice had grown even deeper and more captivating. Hailey spoke up, "Mr. Pilsner, our family''s situation has been resolved, and my parents are very grateful. They''d like to invite you to dinner, if you have some time." Jonah chuckled. "Mr. and Mrs. Lambert are too kind. It was my pleasure to help." "My parents really insist on inviting you," Hailey added. "Will you being?" Jonah asked.
Hailey''s heart skipped a beat. What did he mean by that? ---- "If my parents are inviting you, of course, I''ll be there too. We all need to thank you properly," she said. Jonah chuckled. "Somehow, I feel like you''re not saying that with all sincerity." Hailey smiled nervously, "Mr. Pilsner, could you kindly ept? Of course, if you''re too busy, it''s fine..." "Thave time. Tonight works for me," Jonah replied. "Great! I''ll let my parents know," Hailey said. "Alright. Is there anything else you need to say, Ms. Young?" Jonah asked teasingly. Hailey''s breath hitched.
"What do you mean?" "You haven''t forgotten our little agreement, have you?" Jonah teased. Hailey''s cheeks flushed. "I haven''t forgotten! I''m having my period now!" "No worries. I can wait until your period''s over," Jonah responded. Hailey hastily ended the call, still feeling flustered. She held her phone, her heart racing. Three yearster, Jonah still had the power to make her feel this way. "Then I''ll hang up now," Hailey said. Jonah replied with a simple "Okay." ---- After hanging up, Hailey felt her heart flutter. Three years had passed, yet Jonah still made her heart skip a beat.<fnbc09> Chapters first released on Find_Novel(.</fnbc09><style>
