Shalotis Dating Strategy for Jared
Chapter 70 Shiloh’s Dating Strategy for Jared
Shiloh cleared his throat to alleviate the awkwardness of the moment. “I, uh, used to dislike her. I thought she was scheming and had a dark side.”
“And now?” Jared inquired.
“Even now, I still think she’s pretty calculating and has a hidden agenda,” Shiloh replied candidly. Jared frowned, appearing skeptical.
“But,” Shiloh redirected the conversation, “She hasn’t been cruel to you, nor has she done anything actually to harm you.”
After a brief pause, Jared continued, “Is it because she risked her life to save you?”
Shiloh hesitated to speak the unspoken words that lingered on his lips.
“I’m going outside to soak up some sun,” Shiloh announced abruptly, almost fleeing the villa in his wheelchair.
Observing Shiloh’s departure, Jared’s gaze turned contemplative before he clicked on the [Chapter on Successful Dating Strategies in Films].
While he believed himself capable of grasping even the smallest details as the head of the Brooks family, he couldn’t help but wonder if he was missing something here. Was he truly incapable of comprehending the nuances of a simple date? Yet, Shiloh’s interest warranted a cursory look. After all, there was no harm to it, especially when little else occupied his time.
Joseph said from the side, “Boss, the meeting is about to start.”
“Alright,” Jared acknowledged with a nod before opening the file to begin reading.
The first tactic suggested buying just one serving of popcorn and sharing a Coke. It would likely lead to both hands reaching into the popcorn at the same time in the dim theater, causing their fingertips to touch and ignite a spark of romance. Alternatively, purchasing only one Coke could create an “indirect kiss” effect.
Childish, Jared thought inwardly.
Such maneuvers seemed rather juvenile, inappropriate for him and Julia, who had matured beyond such trivial tactics. These methods wouldn’t suit them.
He proceeded to the second strategy.
When choosing spine–tingling horror films, it was noted that girls often became frightened and instinctively sought comfort in their companion’s arms.
It was very traditional.
While his lack of relationship experience left him somewhat clueless, he couldn’t help but wonder if such an old–fashioned approach would still hold any merit.
“Boss, the strategies that Second Young Master came up with are pretty effective,” Joseph opined while glancing at Jared’s notes.
“Aren’t they a bit cliché?” Jared raised an eyebrow.
“They might be cliché, but clichés endure across generations for a reason. Their enduring popularity speaks to their effectiveness,” Joseph reasoned.
Jared turned his gaze back to Joseph. “I’ve heard that you’re quite the expert in matters of the heart. How many times have you been in love?”
koseph was taken aback. “The boss never discussed this How could I
lared regarded Joseph with an amusing expression “I see I’m not getting any useful information
from you”
Joseph glanced at Jared speechlessly Tm sorry, Boss.”
With a sigh, Jared closed his notebook “Time to head to the company.”
Joseph hesitated before inquiring. So Boss, are you planning to employ these strategies?”
“You’re quite invested aren’t you
“I’m just
cunous, Boss. If the strategies work, I might try them myself in the future.” Joseph’s response was met with an abrupt halt from Jared
“Use the as a guinea pig
no, never “Joseph backtracked, realizing his mistake
“It seems your year end bonus is on the line Jared remarked coldly
Joseph inwardly cursed himself for getting carried away
Just as Joseph was grappling with his blunder, he noticed Julia wandering around the yard.
“Madam, Lady Boss, could you possibly intercede with the Boss on my behalf?”
Though intersession wasn’t necessary the two titles of “Madam‘ and ‘Lady Boss” held significant
sway
“What’s the matter Julia looked over, her curiosity piqued as she approached Jared.
However, her focus on him distracted her from her own steps. She tripped and stumbled, falling right into Jared’s arms
In a swift and graceful motion, Jared reached out to catch her
Witnessing this, Joseph breathed a sigh of relief
The year end bonus was salvaged
“You’re so reluctant to part with me?” Jared teased, a playful glint in his eyes.
Julia glanced at Jared, rendered speechless. She realized he was just making light of her accident. Extracting herself from his embrace, Julia couldn’t help but mutter, “Who knew the rumored abstinent president could be so slick?”
“Don’t tell me you prefer someone as expressive as a block of wood? I’m only conversing with you three times a day.”
Julia couldn’t help but relate to his sentiment. Though sincere individuals offered stability, a little bit of charm and intrigue would liven things up.
“Ahem” Joseph interjected, breaking the banter. “Boss, the meeting is pressing.”
Jared’s displeasure was evident. Couldn’t he see that he was in the middle of a conversation with Julia? Joseph’s lack of tact was disheartening.
Was the meeting truly more important than a private moment with Julia?
“Give them a few more minutes,” Jared decided.
Joseph was taken aback. Could such a delay be allowed? Today’s meeting involved a critical 500
mullion deal‘
Yet Julia decisively intervened. “You should go, Jared.”
“Unight,” Jared a quiesced
Joseph stared at Jared in disbelief Was this really happening?
Joseph secretly resolved that he would approach Julia directly if he ever found himself in a similar situation. It might save him from such heart pounding encounters.
As Jared left he received a call from Carter
Why couldn’t this man t
hint?
Julia had no desire to speak to Carter, so she promptly ended the call
To her surprise, a message from Carter followed I’m at your place, and your brother is with me.]
Reading the message, a surge of icy fury gripped Julia Without hesitation, she stormed toward Purple Garden Manor
Upon entering, she found Carter and Conrad in the living room
“You finally made it. Carter remarked, approaching Julia
