"Well... I am not that busy." Carl covered his face with the magazine.
Leonardo laughed.
Carl glanced at him and threw the magazine onto the table.
"Alright. Actually, the script reading should have started now. But Jessica hasn't got off work for many days. She just returned from abroad last night. As a nice boss, I should let her rest in the morning, shouldn't I?"
Leonardo smiled at him, "Right. You are a good boss. Will Jessica feel touched if she knows what you have done for her?"
"Don't let her know about this. And don't tell Summer. If Jessica knows, she will definitely think I haven't moved on and will laugh at me..."
"So do you still have feelings for her?"
Carl was surprised and didn't answer the question.
At this moment, someone knocked on the door. It was Tim. He brought some documents for Leonardo.
Carl gulped down his coffee and gave the cup to him, "Tim, please refill it."
"Mr. Carl, it's rare to see you here." Tim put down the documents and walked over.
Carl laughed embarrassedly, "I've got something to discuss with Leonardo."
Tim nodded slightly and took the coffee cup.
In the afternoon.
Jessica arrived at the conference room on time.
Several staff members were putting water and refreshments on the desk. They saw Jessica and greeted her.
"Jessica, you're so early."
"Good afternoon, Jessica."
Jessica picked a seat and sat down, "Good afternoon."
Not long after that, Summer also came. As the scriptwriter, she had to attend the meeting.
