Jennifer felt annoyed. What a fool!

She shook her head, sighed, and walked towards the door.
It took Hilliard a moment to grasp the underlying message in her words. Was she inviting him to Lunch?
He hurriedly put his work aside and caught up with Jennifer.
“Miss Turner, I’m new here and not yet familiar with the environment. Would it be possible for us to have lunch together today?”
Jennifer continued walking and cast a glance back at him.
“On your very first day as my secretary, you’re asking me to treat you to lunch? Quite bold of you.”
He found himself momentarily speechless and anxious, as he searched for a good response.

Hilliard desperately tried to express his feelings, but his efforts seemed futile. This left him dispirited.
He attempted to clarify, “That night at your house, I wasn’t lying.
I really wasn’t with my wallet and phone, and I was walking in the rain throughout the night.”
Jennifer remained skeptical.
“My parents allowed you to stay. You don’t need to put yourself through the stress of explaining anything to me as I won’t believe you anyway.”
Ding!
