Chapter 145: Chapter 145

"Alright then, it’s settled. I’ll wait for you in the car, remember to call me when you’re done." Jonah Hansen’s eyes were filled with a clear laughter, and Quinn Lockwood couldn’t help but snort coldly in her heart as she looked at the man in front of her.

It wasn’t surprising that Ariana Lynch was attracted to Jonah Hansen back then. This man indeed had some looks, not only was his skin fair, but his body was also slender and well-shaped. He always maintained a gentle and helpful demeanor. Anyone who spent time with him would develop a good impression and think he was a gentleman.

It’s often said that appearances reflect the heart, but that didn’t seem to apply to Jonah Hansen.

"Who’s that? Savannah, he looks quite handsome," a girl from the crew, who had a good relationship with Quinn Lockwood, came over to ask.

When Jonah Hansen arrived just now, they noticed and were all gossiping, guessing if he was her boyfriend.

Quinn Lockwood’s eyes flickered, and she patted the girl’s head, "Just a friend I know, coming over for something."

She couldn’t be too high-profile about her relationship with Jonah Hansen, since everything was just beginning, and she couldn’t let irrelevant people disrupt her plans.

Hearing her response, the girl breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That’s good, then Dylan still has a chance, hehe."

Hearing this, Quinn Lockwood exaggeratedly rolled her eyes, thinking that Dylan must have won them all over!

As the end of the day approached, Quinn Lockwood looked around but couldn’t find Ariana Lynch anywhere. She didn’t expect Ariana to leave so quickly. She wanted to ask her to join in, but it seemed this bet didn’t entice her.

Just as she stepped out, Quinn Lockwood saw Jonah Hansen standing under a street lamp, his shadow elongated by the light. His royal blue suit made him look clean and classy.

With the corners of her lips slightly curved, she immediately switched to a gentle and charming demeanor, pairing it with an off-shoulder dress in smokey blue, complementing Jonah Hansen’s attire perfectly.

Indeed, she intentionally chose this color. Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs novel_fіre.net

When Jonah Hansen saw Quinn Lockwood, his eyes lit up. Not only was she sensual and charming, but also gentle and adorable, truly a versatile beauty. Thinking of Ariana Lynch... made the sparkle in his eyes suddenly fade.

"What are you thinking about?" Quinn Lockwood waved her hand in front of him and then gave a big smile.

Jonah Hansen snapped out of his thoughts and smiled apologetically, "Sorry, Miss Savannah, my mind wandered for a moment. You really are... beautiful." His gaze carried a hint of inquiry, as if trying to imprint the woman before him deeply in his mind.

Quinn Lockwood felt a bit disgusted being stared at like that, swallowing hard and saying, "Mr. Hansen, shall we go? It’s getting late."

"You shouldn’t call me Mr. Hansen, just call me Jonah. Should I also call you Savannah?" Jonah Hansen felt that Quinn Lockwood seemed a bit distant, so he took the initiative to become more familiar with her.

Quinn Lockwood’s eyes shifted slightly, and she bit her rosy lips, suppressing the disgust in her heart, and said coyly, "Then I’ll call you Brother Jonah, how’s that?"

Soft yet flirtatious, her lively eyes seemed to have a magical power, deeply attracting the man’s gaze.

Jonah Hansen very gentlemanly opened the car door for Quinn Lockwood in the front passenger seat. Quinn hesitated for a moment, not wanting to sit in his passenger seat, but she couldn’t appear too distant and got into the car.

Jonah Hansen really put on a show, even driving out an Aston. One wonders if Ariana Lynch knows about this.

With a sneer in her heart, Quinn Lockwood chatted casually with him about her daily life in the film crew, mentioning Ariana Lynch in passing. He passed over it lightly, making her feel a bit curious.

They arrived at a very famous restaurant, elegantly and exotically decorated, with every corner meticulously designed and arranged.

They sat by the window, and the dishes on the table, whether creamy fragrant crucian carp or golden wire shrimp, all whetting the appetite.

"Savannah, let’s toast to our acquaintance." Jonah Hansen was evidently in a good mood, his face full of smiles, looking radiant.

"Cheers." After lightly sipping the Bordeaux red wine in the glass, a sour sensation spread in her mouth, just like when she found out about his betrayal... Under the table, her hand gripping the tablecloth tightened, her knuckles turning white.

Half of the wine in the glass disappeared in an instant. Jonah Hansen noted Quinn Lockwood’s demeanor with a hint of surprise: "Savannah..."

Quinn Lockwood regained her composure, covered her mouth, and laughed softly, saying, "Savannah is very happy to have met Brother Jonah, lost control for a moment, made you laugh." With that, a blush appeared on her face.

"Meeting Savannah is also my honor. Here, let me toast you again." Jonah Hansen’s eyes glimmered as he raised his glass once more...

The aftertaste of the red wine was indeed strong. At the moment, Quinn Lockwood felt somewhat dizzy, but it didn’t hinder her actions.

Looking at Quinn Lockwood’s originally beautiful and tender face with a hint of drunken blush, eyes slightly dazed, adding more charm, her smooth, sexy lips looking even more inviting at the moment.

Jonah Hansen looking at the charming woman before him, couldn’t help but want to kiss her, but after all, it was only their first outing... and then there’s Ariana Lynch...

Thinking of these, Jonah Hansen’s eyes dimmed; if only he could advance things with Quinn Lockwood.

Feeling the unusual gaze from the man in front, Quinn Lockwood hard-pressed herself, pinching hard to stay calm.

"Oh dear, it’s getting late. I need to head back. I have a schedule to catch tomorrow."

With that, she attempted to get up, only to stagger.

Jonah Hansen seized the opportunity to support Quinn Lockwood by the shoulders, quite an intimate gesture.

After getting in the car, Jonah Hansen occasionally glanced at Quinn Lockwood, his expression somewhat conflicted, as if hesitating over something: "Savannah, where is your home address?"

"Could you drop me back at the hotel instead? My manager is still waiting for me, probably to discuss the upcoming schedule." Quinn Lockwood lowered her eyes slightly; this guy still wanted to know her home address? Not a chance.

Having seen through Jonah Hansen’s insidious thoughts long ago, it was still early. The knife always needed to be slowly sharpened before it became sharp...

The man paused and then said, "Alright."

Quinn Lockwood played the game of hard-to-get, letting him drop her only at the hotel lobby, giving him a longing smile before going into the elevator, her expression turning cold instantly.

After lingering briefly at the hotel, estimating that Jonah Hansen had already left, Quinn Lockwood’s expression turned icy as she exited the hotel, hailing a taxi to head home.

As soon as she got through the door, she couldn’t wait to rush into the bathroom, turning on the faucet forcefully to wash off the shoulder where Jonah Hansen had touched, scrubbing until her skin turned red, showing she needed more endurance...

And the next morning in The Lockwood Group’s general manager office.

Ariana Lynch burst into Jonah Hansen’s office with a bang, slamming the door forcefully. The man sitting in the office chair looked alarmed but then greeted with a smile: "Ariana, you’re here so early, did you have breakfast? I can have someone bring it over for you?"
