A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 74

After taking a deep breath, Eleanor took out her phone, and found Jason's phone number.

She got this number from his assistant when she helped him book a hotel yesterday.

The phone was picked up after three rings, and Jason's calm and powerful voice came through. "Ms. Shultz, what's up?"

Eleanor was stunned. How did Jason know who she was?

"I saved your number yesterday." As if knowing her surprise, Jason simply explained.

Without asking, Eleanor went straight to the point, "Mr. Clowers, Ms. Ratliff asked me to entertain you on behalf of the Ratliff Group for the time being. Is there anything you need me to do?"

"To entertain me?" Jason was a bit surprised.

"Yeah." Eleanor replied with no shame, not to mention that Jason would be surprised to hear this request, even she felt helpless herself.

After a brief silence, as if realizing something, Jason replied, "I'm on a business trip to A City and didn't bring my personal assistant. Why don't we have Ms. Shultz help me with some basic tasks like making coffee?"

Eleanor thought he would refuse, but he surprisingly asked her to be his personal assistant. Wasn't he afraid she had ulterior motives?

Despite her doubts, Eleanor still replied, "Okay."

Jason glanced at his watch, "I have a meeting in a bit. When are you coming over?"

After asking for the address, Eleanor replied, "I can come over anytime."

He replied with a simple "Okay" and hung up.

Jason had just put down his phone when Colter, who was standing in front of the office desk, asked worriedly, "Mr. Clowers, it's obvious that Ms. Shultz is trying to get close to you under the guise of the company. Why would you agree to let her be your personal assistant?"

Jason thought about how Eleanor had disregarded him and been cold yesterday, and now she was suddenly offering to entertain him, which was indeed strange.

However, he would rather believe that it was because of the photo that made Sophie think there was something going on between him and Eleanor, so she sent Eleanor to host him. He just asked her to be his assistant, so as not to make things difficult for her in the Ratliff Group.

But if he told Colter his thoughts, Colter wouldn't understand. Jason didn't explain further, and simply said, "I'm short on staff."
