Super CEO Daddy And His Baby Triplets novel Chapter 42

Chapter 42 Destined Lover

Calvin was bewildered as to why Jocelyn was keeping her past from him.

He got the impression that she had been through a lot those years. The less she told him, the more he was intrigued by her and wanted to learn more about her.

"What's she doing now?" Calvin asked, rubbing his chin.

Before Craig could respond, however, Marcus interrupted with a phone call.

After answering the phone, Craig covered the receiver and said to Calvin, "It's Marcus calling. He told me that Miss Austin wants to see you right now. She probably wants to talk to you about the copyright auction. Would you mind letting her know you're going to Mermaidshine tonight?"

"Sure."

"Please tell Miss Austin that Mr. Austin will be at Mermaidshine tonight," Craig said to Marcus.

Jocelyn was delighted when she learned Calvin would be attending Mermaidshine that night. She then told Marcus, "Why don't you send me there right now if he's also going to be there? I need to see him as soon as possible and talk to him in person!"

Jocelyn had everything planned: she would use Calvin to her advantage because she had married him. After all, he was a big shot in the first place.

It would be fantastic, she thought, if she could persuade Calvin to buy the rights to The Phoenix Queen. In addition, if the rights and the original creator were merged into one, it would be a lucrative business opportunity for Calvin.

Instead of letting Ernest take advantage of the situation, Jocelyn would rather have Calvin work for this money.

Marcus had the car ready soon. While he was getting ready to leave, she asked him to wait so she could change into her evening attire.

After all, she was Calvin's wife, so she decided to get dressed up before going to Mermaidshine to see him in case she embarrassed him.

When Jocelyn arrived at the Mermaidshine building, the auction had not yet begun. There was a reception in Hall 2 where everyone who was waiting for the auction could mingle.

Everyone had gone out of their way to look their best for the occasion.

While Jocelyn began searching for Calvin in the crowd, she instructed Marcus to do the same.

However, before she found Calvin, Jocelyn noticed Ernest in the crowd.

Ernest was dressed formally in a black suit. He was drinking wine and chatting with wealthy businessmen, but he kept looking around the room for Jocelyn.

He had a feeling Jocelyn would be there.

Jocelyn turned around and ran back just as Ernest was about to spot her.

However, she accidentally bumped into a man. "I'm sorry!" she said.

"Jocelyn!"

Jocelyn looked up when she heard a familiar voice and was surprised to see it was Todd.

The previous two days had passed without either of them seeing or talking with the other.

He appeared depressed and weathered. His once crystal-clear amber eyes had become cloudy and opaque as if frost had formed on them.

Tears welled up in Todd's eyes as he stared longingly at the woman he had missed so much.

He appeared to be overwhelmed with a wide range of conflicting emotions.

Nobody knew how much Jocelyn meant to him.

Todd and Jocelyn were close as children because their grandfathers were friends. They spent a lot of time together at school and in the neighborhood since they were young children. He was willing to be Jocelyn's best friend because he was very into her.
