Chapter 249 Improvement
But it’s just a quick flashback. The next minute Sebastian regained his sense. He was well aware that the girl who used to tag along with him had grown up, and her name was Bella, who had nothing in common with the women standing in front of him.
Realizing this, he shook off all the feelings and said aloofly, “Get off now.”
Bonnie was still in his arms and shook her head to refuse, “No! Not a chance!”
Lukas couldn’t watch it anymore. He said, “Mommy, little Joanna lied to you. There’s no caterpillar on the ground.”
On hearing this, Bonnie peeked through Sebastian’s arms at the ground to check. After making sure it was a false alarm, she got off awkwardly.
Now she didn’t know how to face Sebastian. But fortunately, Sebastian didn’t watch her. He scooped the girls up, each in one arm, and walked away, “Let’s go home.”
Bonnie followed him closely. She intended to get back in her Beetle but ended up being drawn into the black Hummer by Sebastian.
Very soon the car got to the Sunshine Villa.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
Eric had already waited for her with a pile of documents. Catching the sight of Bonnie, he came over and said, “You finally come back, Mrs. Grant.”
“I’m very sorry. Got stuck by the interview of Andrew in the kindergarten.”
Even though she was late, Bonnie was a real professional designer, who could get down to work right after that. Eric and Bonnie first discussed the design in the study. Later Sebastian joined them. They had a heated discussion about the design philosophy. No matter what Sebastian and Eric said, Bonnie was capable of getting the gist in the first place and provided feedback.
“Mrs. Grant, you never fail me.” Eric spoke highly of Bonnie, “You really live up to your name!”
No doubt the clients cared so much about whether she played a part in it or not.
Bonnie was flattered. “Well then let’s call it a day. I should take a shower now. You can go over what I have just proposed.”
After saying this, Bonnie went back to the room. Eric also left with the documents.
Sebastian, alone in front of the desk, looked at those design papers with complicated feelings.
Bonnie impressed him a lot. A random woman he found for fake marriage turned out to be the designer Magnolia whom he had been looking for all this time. What a world!
While he was thinking this, Sebastian’s phone rang. As soon as he answered the phone, Rupert cried in his shrill voice, “OMG! She’s right!”
Sebastian frowned and asked impatiently, “Who is right about what?”
“The fortune teller Erica! Have you forgotten? She said the relationship between you and Annie would have gone further if you took action first today.”
“When did our relationship improve?” He said so with increasing indifference.
“Well.” Rupert wasn’t very happy with his answer, “Don’t try to fool me. It’s all on the news. You and Annie held and kissed each other. The four kids stood in the front watching.”
What can be counted as “improvement” if this didn’t count?
One step closer, they were going to kiss each other.
