Chapter 306 Too Much

Jade expressed concern about David, knowing that Jenny was grateful to him. "What about your uncle?" she asked.

Jenny replied confidently, "He'll understand. He's not unreasonable."

Jenny also warned Jade to avoid being seen by Felicity, explaining that she had told Felicity that the company belonged to a friend but had not revealed that Jade was the general manager. If Felicity knew that Jade was working there, she would start acting up as Jade had once lived in Orchid Village.

Jade reassured Jenny that Felicity wouldn't have the opportunity to come to their floor, which was exclusively for management.

Just as Jade was about to ask how things were going between Jenny and Alec, the office door opened, and Max entered without knocking. He greeted Jenny like an old friend and sat on the sofa, indicating that he had been there before.

Jenny wondered why Max hadn't visited her in a long time, but she soon found out why. She smiled mischievously at Jade, "Jade, why didn't you tell me?"

Jade looked confused and asked, "What do you mean?" When the realization hit her, Jade said, "Don't think too much. Max and I just have a normal relationship." She quickly explained that Max had expressed interest in cooperating with the company, which was the only reason they had been in contact.

"Cooperation?" Jenny repeated, skeptical, and raised her eyebrows at Max.

He faked a cough and shied away from her gaze. "Yes, my family plans to venture into the fashion industry, so I'm here to gain some insight and experience. I mean, we'll end up working together sooner or later."

Jenny didn't believe Max's words. The Pearsons had shown interest in the fashion industry? No one would ever believe that.

When Jenny didn't buy his story, Max quickly changed the subject and suggested they have lunch. together. Jenny didn't answer. Leaning on the sofa, she turned to Jade. "Are you going, Jade?" "Of course, let's go together," Max answered before Jade could.

Jade frowned as she didn't want to go. Although Max always invited her, she didn't think they were close to begin with, so she always refused him. With Jenny around, things were different. "I'll go if Jenny is going," she said.

Jenny looked at Max, musing, "So it's up to me to decide, right?"

"Would you be so kind as to join me for a meal?" Max said with a chuckle, but it sounded forced. He knew exactly what she was thinking.

"My kindness comes at a high price," Jenny replied.

Although Max's face fell slightly, he forced himself to say, "My family owns many luxury shopping malls across the country. If your brand wants to set up a store in one, I can give you a discount." "A discount?" Jenny found his offer amusing. "The best location, half the rent."

Max scoffed, "Impossible!" She was asking for too much!
