Chapter 44 So Scheming
Raven was busy thinking on how she will convince Jordan to just keep her original conditions as it is. She was still hesitant. She doesn't want to become like Yan. She was not ready to be locked up inside the house yet.
She was at the garden when Sheena arrived.
"Hey, you're not yourself? You're in a deep thought that you did not even hear me calling you from behind?" Sheena commented as she sat opposite Raven.
"Something is different with you today. You look somewhat refreshing? What's with that smile?" Raven asked. Sheena looked extremely pretty today.
"Hey, I'm always like this." Sheena answered with a laugh.
Then Sheena added, "Well, because I already had a boyfriend. So I'm blooming." Raven creased her eyebrows. Since when did Sheena have a boyfriend? She did not see her getting close to any men at all.
"Hey when did that happen? Are you even dating?" she asked with curiosity.
"Well it happened fast but I started the wooing a few months ago before the class started." Sheena answered and began to tell Raven the whole story.
"Are you serious, as in with Lou? Jordan's trusted assistant? That's so naughty of you! Why are you telling me this only now?" Raven said as she pouted her lips. She can't believe that something as big like this had happened without her knowing. Sheena was not that secretive to her at all. She knew everything that goes on her friend's life.
"Of course I'm quite shy to tell you something as aggressive as this. Haha, besides I knew how conservative you are with this kind of stuff. You will surely just discourage me on making initiative moves on a guy." Sheena explained then winked at her.
Well, Sheena was right to begin with. Sheena surely was a very confident and expressive woman. The girls talking were interrupted by Senior Cho.
"So, tomorrow is your big day. You'll be considered as an adult." He said jokingly. Raven just rolled her eyes. She was not even excited at that party. But since her father had put a lot of effort on this, she might enjoy everything as well.
"Jordan will be in a business lunch meeting. Since Sheena is here, why don't I treat you girls out for a lunch? What do you say? I have a restaurant in mind where I'm curious to taste their recipes." Senior Choi asked with a smile at the two girls.
"Oh I'm in for that Sir." Sheena blurted out as she excitedly rose up and pulled Raven's hand to get up.
They arrived at the restaurant and the ambience was really good. Sheena and Raven ordered the best dishes in the menu. Senior Choi laughed when Raven ordered a lot with seafood stuff. How he missed his daughter and how a glutton she is.
He looked around the area. It seems like Jordan was not yet around. According to Lou the lunch meeting will be here.
He was about to call Lou when finally he saw Jordan walking with Miss Lin Wang.
Sheena noticed it too and commented, "Raven, Jordan is here with the Wang snake, Oops." Then she laughed. Raven looked and just shrugged her shoulders.
"It's a lunch business meeting so let them be. Let's just eat and enjoy the food." Raven said expressionless. However, she stole glances and looked at Lin Wang every now and then. The woman looked elegant in person with an average body. But she was still confident that she looked better. Lin Wang's only advance was that she was a successful woman so basically most people will say that the two match together.
'Who cares anyway if they match each other?' She thought. She was confident she will be a lot better in the coming years. Besides, Jordan will marry her.
Then Raven thought that she hadn't sign the document yet. She doubt Jordan will easily change his mind. Still, it's better if she will finalize everything immediately. So she eats as fast as she can. She needs to sign the paper now.
"Hey slow down. Why are you in a hurry?" Senior Choi asked seeing Raven almost choked with her sudden speed of eating.
"I forgot an important document to sign. I have to hurry back." Raven explained and continued to eat in a hurry.
"What document?" Senior Choi asked suspiciously.
"It's for Jordan. I will help him out so hurry up if you want us to get married." Raven said unconsciously.
Sheena coughed. She wasn't aware with that and she was shocked to hear Raven's words. "You will marry Jordan?"
Raven just nodded, "I will tell you the details later. Hurry up and finish your food. I have to sign it now." Raven said while she looked at Lin Wang who was obviously flirting with Jordan. She was always smiling and touchy to Jordan's arm and shoulder every now and then.
Senior Choi on the side was suppressing his laugh. It was Jordan's request to bring Raven here. Now he understands why. That was so scheming.
He wondered, just when did his son learn to do something like that?
