Get Back To You 9 Midnight Call

"What? Somebody answered it." Jenna was pulling an all-nighter. She got surprised and thus stood up to answer properly.

"Ms. Grey Ms. Grey, are you an idiot?"

"Woah, I pick up the call and this is what I get. Sad, just truly sad. I can't believe that you called Shane. I remembered giving you my personal phone number."

"I'm sorry that I lost that number. I couldn't find it anywhere else. I can't ask Mr. Ricardo. What if he thinks something bad about me?"

"Bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Lillian raised her eyebrows, which clearly indicated that she didn't like what she heard.

Jenna let out her true feelings and it got little twisted. She tried to coat her words.

"No, I mean. Let's just forget about that. So? You will be sending me the draft by tomorrow morning right?"

Despite those words she heard, Lillian understood that Jenna suffered from this. Plus, she's pulling an all-nighter just to call her. Lillian had a soft spot for Jenna. Like as if she were her child.

Lillian stood up and went away from the bedroom to talk freely with her editor. Since it was a Master Suite there were several rooms. Lillian entered the living area and went near the window.

"So you heard it too huh!! Shane was sure strict this time. Lucy came back from the shooting and only cuz of that I was able to convince her. Else, it would have been tough. "

"Ms. Lucy is sure a workaholic but, she loves you too much. You must understand that Ms. Grey"

"Oh am I receiving relationship advice from you now. Remember kid, you're still a baby. What do you know about dating anyway? When was the last time you even dated a guy?"

"Last time!!!. I'm sure it was before I became your editor. Thanks to you I'm free from such commitments."

"Trust me. Grow up a little more and then date again. I wouldn't allow you to date any kind of trash."

"Oh, do I have to get your permission to date guys now?"

"Of course. Don't even think that you can cheat me. Got it?" Jenna agreed.

"Fine it's getting late and you have suffered enough cuz of me, now go to sleep. Next time, I see you directly I will give you my personal number. If you lose it again, I might have to kill you. Got it?

Jenna was threatened. "Ms. Grey. Sure sure, I will engrave your personal number on my chest. Please refrain from killing me. I'm the only editor you can have permanently, you see."

"Oh, Ms. Grey, please answer my call, if I call you. I feel bad now. If you had just picked my call earlier, none of this would have happened."

"I know. I know. I brought it for myself. So stop pestering me. You don't need my update. It seems like you received it directly from the boss. Alright, I will finish it within tonight. It is already 90% over. So, no worries."

"Wow. Ms. Grey 90% that's terrific. Why didn't I get an update regarding this?"

"I will call you tomorrow once I'm done."

"Good trying to avoid my questions again. Whatever, I'm just here to do my job."

"Good night Jenna"

"Bye Ms. Grey. Thank G.o.d you're safe. Please don't strain yourself. I am ready to help you anytime. Just call me and I will be there for you. Goodnight."

Lillian was a bit fl.u.s.tered listening to Jenna's words.
