1237: Chapter 1234: You’ll co over tonight, right?
She graciously refused: I’m sorry, Madam White.
I already have a lunch appointnt, can we reschedule?
Madam White: You have soone to et at noon?
I was going to ask you what you like to eat and cook it for you.
Seems like I won’t have that chance today.
It isn’t hard to detect so sense of loss in Madam White’s words.
Joanna imdiately felt a pang of guilt and quickly sent another ssage explaining: Ashton and I are going to see my younger brother at noon, and we probably won’t have anything else to do in the evening.
If I have ti in the evening, and if Madam White doesn’t mind my bothering you, I’ll co and see you.
How about that?
This ti, Madam White replied quickly: Of course, you are always welco.
If you decide to co, let know in advance, and I will personally cook dinner for both of you!
Madam White, who sounded disappointed just a mont ago, suddenly beca happy again.
She sent out several ssages in rapid succession
First asking Joanna what she likes to eat, then asking what Ashton prefers.
Joanna talked with her for more than an hour.
When it was almost ti, she took a car to Ashton’s company to wait for him to finish work so they could go together to see Jeremy.

When she arrived, Ashton was still busy.
Joanna didn’t want to disturb him, so she asked his secretary to make her a cup of coffee and sat on the couch playing with her phone while waiting for him to finish.
Joanna was scrolling through Twitter Monts.
Seeing that there was a new update, she clicked on it.
The people she had added on Twitter weren’t many, mostly work-related acquaintances, and the updates in the Monts were mostly related to their circle.
So Madam White’s tweet stood out as being rather different.
Madam White posted a set of photos, of her watering flowers in the garden.
There was also a fat orange cat in the photos, leisurely lounging on a tree branch, looking aloofly at Madam White watering flowers beneath the tree.
Joanna found the chubby orange cat simply adorable at first sight.
She liked Madam White’s tweet and comnted: Hahaha, sure enough, the fat orange cat steals the show.
It’s so fat it doesn’t even have a neck.
So cute.
Madam White, who was likely on her phone, quickly replied: Joanna, do you like this cat?
It’s a stray cat around here, I nad it Orange.
Orange is very cute, co over earlier this evening and I will show you Orange.
Joanna replied with an okay.
After a while, Joanna noticed that Madam White had updated her Monts again.
Perhaps it was because Joanna had comnted that the cat was cute.
This ti, Madam White uploaded a set of nine pictures of the orange cat on a tic-tac-toe board.
All the pictures were of Orange from different angles and positions; the cara was so close it was almost touching the cat’s face.
After posting the pictures, Madam White sent her a private ssage: Joanna, isn’t Orange just adorable?
Trust , it’s even cuter in person than in these pictures.
This cat is a bit wild, sotis it runs off and doesn’t show up for days, so I had soone catch it just now.
By the ti you co, you will be able to see it.
Madam White, as if she’s afraid Joanna won’t co over in the evening, quickly sent another ssage: Joanna, you will co tonight, right?
Now Joanna understood.
Madam White was probably afraid that Joanna wouldn’t co in the evening, so when she discovered Joanna’s fondness for cats, she posted pictures of Orange to entice her.
