His Dangerous Love novel Chapter 144

Chapter 144 Don't Tell Me You're Planning to Run Away

"It's been so long. Why hasn't Jefferson come back yet?"

If it were someone else, not to mention making Alicia wait, even if they didn't arrive earlier than her, this young lady would have thrown a fit.

In this world, only Jefferson had the power to make her set aside her pride like this.

Sophia glanced at her watch. "Yeah, Jeff has been gone for quite a while."

Looking at the shop assistant, she asked, "When that gentleman left, did he say when he would be back?"

"Huh?"

The shop assistant's eyes slid toward the fitting room and dryly said, "Sorry, I was busy tidying up the counter in the back. I didn't know."

"Why bother asking her?"

Alicia scoffed. "Would Jefferson tell a shop assistant where he's going?"

Jefferson...

Upon hearing that name, the shop assistant froze for a moment, finally remembering where she had heard the name Jefferson before.

Lowering her head to hide her fright, she thought with lingering fear, thank goodness she didn't say anything rash just now.

"I'll call and ask."

Sophia took out her cellphone, but just as she was about to dial, she received a message from Jefferson.

"Hey, Jeff says he's not coming back. He went straight to the restaurant on the top floor. Let's finish shopping and meet him there."

"What are we waiting for then? Let's go."

Upon hearing this, Alicia stood up and started walking.

"But Elianna hasn't come out yet. Shouldn't we wait for her?"

"Why wait for her? She has hands and feet. She can make her own way over, can't she?"

Alicia hadn't formed a good impression of Elianna due to the incident with Nola, and now, desperate to see Jefferson, she pulled Sophia and headed out.

Sophia only had time to call out to the fitting room, "Anna, we're going to the top floor. When you're done trying on clothes, come find us upstairs."

"Okay."

Elianna responded with a muffled sound.

When she heard the people outside leaving, she dared not open the door immediately. Instead, she opened it just a crack, crouched down, and peeked outside.

Jefferson leaned against the doorway, smirking as he looked at her. "Done with your reconnaissance?"

"I'll take another look."

As she bent over, her behind was playfully tapped.
