“I’m afraid I can’t do that. So please call him and tell him that Jenna is here.”
“He gave strict instructions not to be disturbed.”
I closed my eyes for a moment and took a deep breath, for I would lose my shit. Pulling my phone from my purse, I dialed his number and put it on speaker.
“Jenna? What’s wrong?” he answered.
“Will you please call off your security dog and tell him to let me see you.”
“What are you talking about? I really don’t have time for this.”
“I’m at your office, you idiot, and I need to see you. It’s very important. The problem is this big guy won’t let me through!” I spoke with gritted teeth.
“Why are you at my office?”
“I’ll explain when I see you!” I spoke with irritation.
“Tell Andy I said it’s okay and to bring you to the conference room.”
I looked at Andy and smirked as I raised my brow at him.
“Follow me,” he spoke.
I followed him to the conference room, and when Andy opened the door, I went inside.
“Thank you, Andy.”
“No problem, boss.”
“For fuck’s sake, it’s like a damn fortress in here,” I spoke as I set my purse down on the table.
“What the hell are you doing here? You shouldn’t even be out of the house. You need to be home resting!”
“I have plenty of time for that.” I pulled the notepad from my purse and handed it to him.
“What is this? Is this the notepad from my desk?”
“Yes. I found the error as to why your coding isn’t working. I rewrote it, and I’m ninety-nine percent positive this will work.”
“What?” His brows furrowed at me. “Jenna, this makes no sense,” he said as he studied the notepad.
“It makes perfect sense, Lucas. Just put the coding in.”
He took a seat at the end of the table where a large computer sat and began typing. After A few moments, his eyes widened.
“What the fuck!” he exclaimed. “It worked, Jenna!” A happy grin crossed his face. “Oh, my God. It works! I can’t believe this!” He placed his hands on his head. “How—” he looked at me from across the table.
“Long story for another time.”
He walked over to me and gripped my shoulders. “I can’t believe this. I just can’t. I have a ton of calls to make, and I have to bring my team in.”
“And I’m going home to lay down. I’m exhausted.”
“I don’t know what to say, but thank you. I’m at a loss for words, but we will discuss this when I get home.” He kissed my forehead. “I’m going to walk you down to the lobby and have Thaddeus drive you back to the penthouse.”
“I can get down to the lobby by myself. You go do what you have to do.”
“Are you sure? I can have Andy walk you down.”
