Of course, it wasn’t to say things had always been easy for Sonia. She suffered a lot when she first started working for Jacob, but she ultimately endured it and became his trusted
Logan didn’t expect Sonia to be Lorraine’s bestfriend. He said, “I’ve heard of Ernest Incorporated before. Your fried must be good at what she does to work there.”
In fact, she had to be great at her job it she could stand Jacob’s ties
“Sonia had a hard time when she first started working their, It’s good that she’s overcome all her difficulties to get to where she is now.” When Sonia first joined trest Incorporated, she would constantly complain to Lamine about Jacob.
She had complained about his cold demeanor. With the frigid air he was always giving off, they didn’t need the A/Con, not even in the middle of summer.
She also ranted about Jacob always leaving his office door open. Sonia was sure it was because he wanted to watch them at all times and make sure they weren’t slacking
Whatever it www, it hadn’t been easy for Sonia to stick it out for so long and finally settle on a rhythm with [arnih,
Logan smiled. He didn’t doubt Lorraine’s words. He knew what Jacob was Eke, after all
Lorraine wanted to continue picking cherries after eating breakfast. But when she checked the time and realized Sonia would arrive soon, shechanged her mind. After all, she had- hined workers to help with the orchards‘ operations. Her absence wouldn’t affect the handing over of goods.
A few minutes later, her phone rang. When she saw the caller II, she told Logan, “Son’s arched with her boss. Let’s go welcome them.”
The wolfhounds beat them to it. The worker in charge of handling them ran after them. He wan’t as best as them, but when he caught up, al he saw was them barking at Jacob. None of them dared to pounce on him
Senia looked at him and chuckled. “Even dogs are afraid of your expression and deneanor, Mr. Moose. You have no idea how often these dogs have pounced on people visiting the orchards for the first time. So many of them almost collapsed out of free”
She didn’t dare to come to the orchards alone on her first time. She made sure to to Bow Lorraine so that the wolhounds wouldn’t dare pounce on her. They didn’t care how pretty
-they would pounce on her reperdless.
They had been trained well, so they wouldn’t bite even if they were to pounce on angerie. Stil, theyune fencemough that anyone would wrt themselves after being pounced an.
Jacob shot Sonia a look, and she quickly put on a stem expression as she told the wolfhounds off just then, the worker handing them showed up. When he saw Sonia, he grinned. “Mx Lynch.”
“Hi Where’s Lorraine? I brought my boss to look around the orchards. As she spoke, she saw Lorraine come over. She stepped forward to hug her friend
“Man, I’ve missed you. It’s been ages since we saw each other! You’re heartless, you know why haven’t you come to see me? You forgot about me after having someone deinert cherries to myplare! Sonia complained.
One good thing about having a friend who owned orchards was that when the fruits ripened, Lorraine would bring her fresh fruits whenneer she went to the city. They were more than enough for her to est
“I’ve been busy, haven’t I? Lorraine let go of She pushed glasses higher up on her nose before introducing Logan to SandThis is my husband, Logan Moore.” Sonia looked at him. At flest sight, she thought he was a perfect gentlemen and almost outrageously handsome. When she looked a second time, she found his futures familiar. He reminded her of…
She turned to look at Jacob, His and Logan’s features were similar, perhaps because they both had bushy brown and deep–act eyes. The only difference was that Logan’s demeano was much gentler, unlike Jacob’s. Jacob always looked stem and grumpy.
“It’s nice to meet you, Mr. Logan Fm Lorraine best trend, Sona Lynch Salad a good impression of Logan. It was no wonder Lomaine had married him on a whim–he www so good–looking. If she were in Loraine’s shoes, she would’ve done the same and claimed him an hir own before anyone else could.
She held out a hand, which Logan shook politely. Then, she introduced Jacobio Tomam and Legan.
Jacob washed to see Logan suddenly become the husband of a woman from the countryside, but he didn’t let it show. He was a serious and steady as he always was. The two cousins exchanged a teaningful look before nodding at each other in greeting.
*Come with me, Mr. Jacob.” Lorraine invited Jacob to her cottage inside the orchards. When everyone was seated, the made him a cup of tra
Sonia’s expression shifted when she saw that Jacob didn’t drink tea, burit was too late for her to remind Lorraine. She could only watch as Lorralise gave her and Jacob each a cup
Then, she saw Jacob accept the tea worhout looking the slightest bit displeased. His expression was assoc as always, but he drank the tea without complaint Sonia’s heart settled in her chest at the sight.
Jacob might’ve had a lot of tics, but he did grow up in an affluent family. The Moore family was Glendale’s most allow tamily, and it showed in Jacob’s upbringing and manners. He didn’t explode on Lorraine.
shhad no idea what Sonia was thinking. All he knew was that his cousin–in–law had given him a Logan would give him a shelling if he refused to drink it, and he skin’t have anyone to blame but himself. He didn’t drink tea but knew he had to do it so that he wouldn’t humiliate Lorraine
After some small talk, Lorraine left to pick some cherries Sonia allowed her out. “I forgot to tell you, Lorraine. The King, doesn’t drink res. If anyone at their hehe smash the beapot on their Beads
“You almost scared the living daylights out of me earlic. Fomunately, nothing went wrong. I think he took two sis of the tra
Lerrane was taken aback. “Why didn’t you tell me about that earlies?‘s don’t have any good tea bags here, so Tuud homegrown tou leaves to make that tea. It’s a lot more bitter than regular tes”
Soniased, “Well, I suppose he got up on the right side of the bed for once today.”
Lomaine’s homegrown tea was bitter but helped wake one up. That was why she loved drinking
Sonia conmued, “It’s okay, I guess. Since he drank it, I don’t think he’ll get mad at you for it!
Torraine brought her to the cherry trees. As she picked some, she said, “I keep hearing you talk about your boss, but it’s only now that I’ve seen him in person that understand
what you mean
1. It’s been hard on you, Sonia tean’t believe your
working for him for so long and even gotten a few raises.”
“He’s not on hand to handle once you get a grasped his personally,” Sonia said while eating some cherries. Damn, they were sweet
There were various types of chemins, but the ones available now were the Bing and Meteor cherries. The Bing cherries had a tinge of soumess amidst the sweetness, which Sonia lowed. She couldn’t stop eating them.
