Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1937

Jarvy knocked on the glass door of the conference room and pushed it open. All the people in the meeting were looking at him.

When the female stars saw him, their beautiful eyes brightened at the same time, while the male stars stood up to greet him politely.

"I brought a guest over. Everyone, please welcome her," Jarvy said as he turned his body, revealing Maryanne's figure.

Seeing this, the female stars and the male stars had different reactions.

The female stars were secretly jealous and pretended to be enthusiastic, while the male stars were mostly polite. They were all in the entertainment circle. In the face of these rich and powerful people, they dared not put on airs as big stars.

"Hello, everyone!" Maryanne's voice was full of vitality like a piece of music on the piano key.

"Let me introduce you,” Jarvy immediately said, "This is Miss Maryanne Smith, my good friend."

Hearing that, Maryanne gave him a meaningful look. "Just a good friend?"

Under everyone's gaze, Jarvy braced himself to admit, "She is also the one I am pursuing."

Hearing that, everyone except for Maryanne uttered a "Wow". In fact, they all knew very well that this woman was the daughter of the Home of Smith that Jarvy had been pursuing recently. Hadn't it been published in the newspaper?

Jarvy pressed his palm downwards, indicating for them to be quiet, and said to Maryanne, "Maryanne, this way please."

Maryanne nodded and followed Jarvy to a seat.

As soon as they sat down, Maryanne immediately realized that they were at the back. She could not help but ask Jarvy, "Why are we not sitting at the front but at the back?"

The vice president also looked at Jarvy strangely. Jarvy said, "You guys continue. Don't worry about us."

The vice president thought that Jarvy wanted to sit behind and whisper with Maryanne, so he stopped looking at them and continued the meeting.

As for the contents of the meeting, the vice president was not worried that it would be overheard by Maryanne, because the person who attended the meeting was brought in by Jarvy. If anything went wrong, it would be Jarvy's loss and responsibility.

Maryanne was at the back. Looking around, there were only rows of heads that were staring at the projection screen. She knew that Jarvy was deliberately trying to prevent others from paying attention to her hand. However, not only did she not feel angry, she was even a little happy because this proved that her guess earlier was correct. Jarvy was indeed someone who cared about dignity.

This was very good. Previously, she had been worried that Jarvy had truly fallen for her. It was inevitable that she would hurt him.

But now it seemed that Jarvy was not as indifferent as he said. He still cared about other people's eyes and thoughts.

Maryanne took out a pair of earphones from her bag and put them into her ears after connecting the phone.

Jarvy, who had been paying attention to her, saw this and asked softly, "Maryanne, what are you doing?"

Maryanne replied softly, "Didn't I tell you before coming in? I'm just looking, I won't listen."

After finishing her words, she clicked on the video on her mobile and looked at it.

Sometimes to avoid suspicion could often reduce a lot of unnecessary trouble. Maryanne would not leave Jarvy a chance to take advantage of her.

After the meeting, Jarvy found that Maryanne had remained in her original position, which showed that she really had no interest in the content of their meeting.

He raised his head and saw that the crowd was looking at them intentionally or unintentionally. Maryanne's hands, which were holding her mobile phone as she watched the video, were so eye-catching. He couldn't help touching her arm and saying, "Maryanne, the meeting is over."

While speaking, Jarvy suddenly saw a female star coming toward them from the corner of his eye.

His eyelids twitched and he could not help but shout at Maryanne, who was still immersed in the video, "Maryanne!"

Maryanne raised her head, took off her headphones, and asked Jarvy, "Did you call me?"

"Yes!" Jarvy glanced at the female star who was walking toward them and then quickly said to Maryanne, "I'll take you to my office. It's quiet there. You can watch the video without wearing earphones."

Those words were so considerate, but they contained Jarvy's scheming.

Maryanne took off her headphones and heard the sound of high heels getting closer and closer. She turned her head and immediately understood why Jarvy was in such a hurry to take her away.

To admit that he was pursuing her in front of a beautiful female employee was an embarrassment to a man like Jarvy, right?

"What's the rush? Didn't someone come looking for you?" Maryanne pointed at the female celebrity who was approaching them.

"Mr. Tomson..." In the next second, the female star's voice came slowly. In addition to flirting, there was also a hint of resentment.

"I saw it!" A man raised his hand and said, "It looks very serious. Otherwise, according to her family background, she would have gone to remove her scars, wouldn't she?"

"Yes, but she doesn't seem to mind. She's very natural and generous."

The female star, who was shocked just now, said sourly, "I remember last time she was invited to the press conference, she was wearing gloves. At that time, I thought it was fashion, but now I think about it... Tsk."

"We don't have to care whether she wears gloves or not. Isn't what Mr. Tomson thinks that matters? He has always liked flawless beauties, but he is now pursuing Miss Maryanne Smith. Should I say that his taste has changed?"

"I remember that one of my friends came with me to participate in the Star Selection Contest of the company. My friend was eliminated by Mr. Tomson just because she has a mole on her face. I didn't expect that..." While everyone was discussing, they did not notice that Jarvy and Maryanne were walking behind them.

Jarvy was quite embarrassed, while Maryanne was smiling all the way. After all, those people did not speak ill of her, did they?

When they arrived at Jarvy's office, Maryanne heard him sigh in relief.

She asked, "You were nervous, weren't you?"

Hearing that, Jarvy answered in a smart way, "No, I'm just worried about you."

Maryanne put her hands behind her back and asked, "Don't you blame me for making you the subject of the employees' complaints?"

Jarvy shook his head hypocritically. "I don't blame you."

Maryanne nodded. "It's good that you don't blame me. I'm a little curious about one thing. So you're someone who can't even stand seeing a mole?"

"No!" Jarvy hurriedly denied, "They're totally exaggerating!"

"I thought so too. How could a person who can't even stand seeing a mole fall in love with me?"

Jarvy pretended to be touched and looked at her, "Maryanne, it's great that you can think this way! My feelings for you are more valuable than real money!"

"What a cheesy metaphor." Maryanne laughed at him. The atmosphere between the two of them had returned to normal.

Jarvy then asked seriously, "Maryanne, you have officially greeted the employees in my company, and I admitted in front of them that I am pursuing you. You did not refuse at that time. So, can we be considered a couple now?"
