Like hell!
When Seth wasn't looking, Jude rolled his eyes. "I don't know who it was, but somebody's voice completely cracked on the phone yesterday."
Seth's expression didn't change. "You wouldn't understand. She kept it from me because she cares about me."
Jude was dumbfounded.
He had successfully brainwashed himself into feeling better?
Romance?
Not even a dog would want this kind of relationship!
He was never falling in love!
"Bring me that other stack of files," Seth ordered, finishing the paperwork in front of him.
Jude scrambled to grab the documents.
Before he could even drop them on the desk, Seth snapped, "Stack them perfectly straight!"
Jude froze.
He had already straightened them perfectly before walking in!
Honestly, Seth's OCD had morphed into an absolute nightmare lately.
So Jude cautiously asked, "Seth, maybe you should go see Jordan for a follow-up."
"Haven't you noticed your OCD has become borderline psychotic lately?"
He literally couldn't handle it if the ridges on a plastic water bottle didn't line up perfectly.
...
Lantern Festival.
Noreen was scheduled to attend the Eastvale Corporation reception.
When Sophia Cole brought her gown, Noreen was buried in work.
She didn't try it on, just told Sophia to hang it in the lounge.
As soon as Sophia hung it up, her phone buzzed with a message from Seth, asking what dress Noreen was wearing tonight.
Sophia snapped a picture and sent it to him.
Seth replied: "It's ugly. Change it."
Sophia stared at the dress on the hanger. It looked stunning to her.
It was a halter-neck, backless design. The exposed back was draped with glittering crystal chains that cascaded from the nape of the neck all the way down to the waist.
