Lie Flat, Sugar Daddy

Chapter 34: Could It Be That He Was Incapable In That Way?



.." Jensen's brows furrowed, he was about to say something at this moment, a young girlish voice rang from downstairs calling Rae.

Rae turned and rushed downstairs to have a look, the small girl was waving at her. She waved heartily as well, and praised at the same time, “This kid has quite good eyesight, she can even see me here from such a height." Then she put her hands around her mouth like a trumpet, shouting, "I'll come down now!" Saying this, she turned and said to Jensen, "I'm going down to walk with the kid, you can go get busy." Jensen suddenly thought of her mumbles during the exhibition, and he replied, "I'll come with you."

Rae stunned at first, then she also remembered the mumbles that she said in the morning, and she instantly nodded happily! Jensen changed in some casual clothes and accompanied her outside. While the two were waiting for the elevator, he asked, "How come you're familiar with that kid?"

Rae told Jensen all about meeting that little girl at the supermarket and she said the fish have names, then she continued, "Then when I went to buy something again, I met that kid once more. That kid actually came up to me first and said to me that she knows the name of the chicken! She said that chickens have no names when they are alive, but when they're dead they'll have many names, such as fried chicken, spicy chicken, roasted chicken, pepper chicken, chicken soup, chicken popcorn, chicken nuggets... Isn't that kid brilliant?! I'm so impressed by her!" The door of the elevator opened and Rae stepped in, she pulled on Jensen arm and shook it, as she said adorably. "So please let me get pregnant faster, alright? When are you going to the church? Can you pray to god, please?!"

Jensen was a Christian, sometimes when he was free on the weekends he would go to church in the morning, and Rae would accompany him there sometimes.

"Alright," Jensen saw that she was so passionate, and felt uncomfortable inside.

When they reached downstairs, that kid was indeed still waiting for them. After greeting the kid's mother, Rae and the little girl walked at the front. In fact, the surroundings of this apartment were very convenient, and it was very easy to go anywhere. Once they went downstairs there would be places like malls and convenient stores, but there was not any parks that could allow people to take a walk at. This reminded Rae of that neighbourhood, Recreation Garden, the greenery downstairs was like a park and it was suitable for children to live at. She held the little girl's tiny soft hand in her hand, thinking that she was really thinking ahead, the most important thing at the moment was supposed to be getting pregnant.

"Oh right, if Miss Jordan has plans to get pregnant, if you don't mind don't buy much clothes as I have some. My child grows up so fast and she has a lot of clothes that are given by her relatives, and she grew out of them after wearing for a short while. She wears both boy and girl styles, since it doesn't really matter for kids. Further, didn't they say that kids are supposed to wear hand me downs? If you don't mind, I'l pack up later for you," The little girl's mother said passionately.

"Sure, then thank you for your trouble." Rae turned back and gave a sweet smile.

Jensen saw that smile and he felt more uncomfortable inside, as he spoke, "I'm going to smoke."

"Hey!" Rae was instantly annoyed.

"Just one?" Jensen asked.

"Go, go, go." Although Rae was annoyed, but she thought that he must surely be worried about Zain's matter, so she let him off for once.

The little girl's mother walked to her side and stared at her, examining as she asked, "Miss Jordan, sorry for asking this. I see that you want children quite bad, but you and your husband... have you talked about it properly?"

"Why?" Rae did not understand why she would ask like this so suddenly.

"Don't blame me for being blabbering, but I saw that by the looks of him, he doesn't seem quite passionate. This has to be discussed properly, these times are not as before, sometimes a child is the conflict between two people." The girl's mother said.

Rae nodded thoughtfully, she never would have thought so if the girl's mother did not mention it, but now once she mentioned she felt that there was an issue. It was true, it seemed that every time she mentioned about having children, Jensen would especially be weird. He was not decisive at all, never saying if he wanted or he did not want it, this was totally unlike his style.

Could it be that he did not want?

But looking at him, he had rather liked Sweetie who was recently born at Ewan's home. He always hugged her and was unwilling to let go, until Sweetie had screamed her lungs off then he would return her to Ewan.

Rae contemplated and a dark thought of a possibility popped into her awareness...

Could it be that Jensen was impotent?

A television series that she binged watch recently happened to have such a scene. Because the man was impotent, he put the blame on the woman and even divorced the woman without anything left for her, he was truly a douchebag.

But thinking about it...

Rae shook her head, she would not think of it anymore, she felt that this thing would not happen upon him!

Rae was rather busy the following two weeks, she was busy fighting with Ophelia, as that Ophelia was so ambitious that she actually wanted to swallow whole all of the marketing resources on her hands! Rae was surely dissatisfied, so she pin pointed on her and refused to let go, and the two of them was so close to taking a knife and rushing up to the other's company! But just when the two fought so badly that it was not known who would win, Ophelia's company was suddenly investigated by the authorities due to some taxation issues, and the war between the two finally ceased. Rae did not take the opportunity to pursue further, as she thought that it was quite rare to meet a worthy opponent in life. So she let her go, if only she did not go after her own things.

Since it was rare that she had some peace, Rae told Jensen that she was not going home for dinner tonight, and after dinner she asked Darcy to go relax at a bar in the James Group Building together. Knowing that she was going, Reuben had already told his people to reserve the best seat. It was at the corner of the glass, and had a 180-degree view of the entire night scenery.

"... Oh right, you can just change this lady's order to warm milk." Rae told the handsome young man.

There were not many customers at the bar right now and it was not quite noisy.

"You're just so kind!" Darcy snorted at her, she had come all the way and could only drink milk!

"By the way, does your belly get larger? I accepted a wedding dress advertisement on your behalf and it requires you to wear a dress revealing your back. It was originally a resource under Louisa, and I took so much effort to snatch it over. But if you go there with a huge belly, who knows whether they want to change you immediately. This is a wedding dress advertisement, after all" said Rae exasperatedly. "It's not that fast, relax." Darcy replied.

Just as the two were chatting on casually, the waiters on the side suddenly became nervous, and one of them spoke into the intercom, "That bunch of gangsters are here again, close the doors quickly!" Rae suddenly thought of the situation that Flora had said before, saying that Reuben's building would be disturbed by a bunch of people. This had been over half a month, had it not stopped yet? Thinking of this, Rae reached and pulled one of the waiters over and asked, frowning. "Why hasn't those people stopped?"

The waiter knew that this woman was Reuben's friend, and Reuben was a good friend of the owner of this bar. Hearing what this woman talked, she was an insider, and so he told her truthfully, "Yes, it's been half a month, those people have nothing better to do! I heard that it was Mr James who had offended someone so that person wants to disturb him. Business revenue has been lowered a lot this month, and if this continues Mr James would be losing a lot of money."

"Reuben would lost a lot of money?" Rae was taken aback, was it not the owner of the bar who would suffer loss?

"Yes, as this was due to Mr James, so Mr James had been compensating everyone based on the revenue of each floor every day. My boss and Mr James are too close and so he doesn't accept it, but others had accepted. Think about it, how many floors are in this building, and how much would it cost to compensate every unit." The waiter really could not think of that number, he must surely be losing up the several hundred thousands every day.

"Well, it would be an understatement to say that he's losing millions every day," Darcy tutted on the side. This was the tallest building, and inside this place was all high-end entertainment, dining and accommodation facilities, it was surely not an insignificant sum. At the same time, Darcy glanced at Rae, she actually called the owner of this building as Reuben directly, it looked as if they were very close. She did not expect Rae to be so capable.

"You got it," The waiter replied Darcy, and went on continuing his work.

Rae looked at the people in the shop, it felt as if they were shutting down to keep these guys away. She did not know what Jensen was thinking, she had said that a birthday party was not necessary, yet he had to insist. Now Reuben was gotten in trouble, and she was really embarrassed. Hundred thousands a day, well, then this half a month...

Oh my, she'd rather Reuben just gave the money to her, and rent this building to whoever he wanted!

After sitting for a while, indeed she heard a bunch of gangsters holding sticks and knocking them loudly, and they were even saying some nasty words loudly. But no one in the bar took heed of them, it looked as if they were used to it. Those people made noise for some time and left, and at this moment the waiter served them their drinks, saying, "Well, they'll come again later, the security guards downstairs couldn't hold them back even if they tried."

Rae took a sip of her wine, feeling that she had to ask Jensen properly. If he had his own plans, then she would not care. But if he only did it for her, she must really convince him otherwise. Darcy sat for a while, and said that she had something to do and must leave.

Rae felt that she was being weird but did not ask further. She merely joked that her back was now quite worth a fortune and asked her to rub it lighter when she bathed. Darcy smiled and replied that she knows, saying that she would wrap it with a piece of cling wrap to prevent injuries.

Rae sat by her own for a while and ordered one alcohol after another to try. It was probably due to her messed up mixing and they were all alcohol that were quite heavy, she began to feel that her head was quite heavy. Rae called Jensen to ask him to come get her, and he replied that he happened to have something to find Reuben for and he was arriving. Rae leaned on the table, and watched the colourful night view through the wine glass. An email came through her phone, it was sent by Eric.

Rae clicked on it, and after she entered the password, she read the message.

"The Barnes family might have asked for help from Jensen, someone is investigating now, I'll hold on for now."

Rae replied an alright, and deleted the communication records cleanly. Since the last time the number was discovered by Jensen, she did not want to make the same mistake, so she relied on email to communicate with Eric. Thinking that Jensen's style, which he refused to help her and also disallowed others from helping her, sometimes she felt that this man was indeed dominant. Anyhow, she would still do something to the Barnes Food Company.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
