Chapter 746

Zachary took Serenity’s hand and said in a low voice, “Seren, you look stunning tonight. Come, I’ll take you inside.”

Serenity greeted Josh with a nod before following Zachary into the building.

Josh wanted to take the Sox siblings in, but Drake refused and said, “This is your company’s annual dinner. I don’t work here, and I’m not a woman, so I can’t be your companion. I won’t go in.

“I’ll return to take my sister home when dinner is over.”

Josh did not want Drake to follow, but he was not obvious about it. Instead, he repeatedly persuaded Drake to come in together and was about to reach out to pull him.

“Mr. Bucham, since Drake doesn’t want to go in, don’t force him. Drake, you go hang out with your friends and I’ll send you a message when I want you to come over.”

Serenity mentioned that Josh approached Drake with an ulterior motive and his real target was her.

However, when she saw Josh behaving enthusiastically about her brother, she could not help but still worry if Josh was gay or bisexual.

She would not allow him to get too close to her brother.

“I’ll go now, Mr. Bucham, Jas.”

Drake hurriedly drove away.

Only when his car was out of sight did Josh take Jasmine inside.

“Ms. Sox.”

As Josh and Jasmine walked shoulder to shoulder, he requested in a low voice, “You should take my arm.”

Jasmine was speechless. “We’re already very close now. Do I still need to hold your arm?”

“Look at Zachary and Serenity. They look so close. That’s what a female companion is like. This is so you can help me keep away the adoration of the female employees.”

He added in a soft voice, “I’ll add money.”

Jasmine bristled. “You make it sound as if I don’t have enough and need your money.”

Well, she really did like his money. He gave her too much. She was an ordinary person with worldly desires, so what she liked most in life was money.

“I did say I’d buy a wig for Drake and let him pretend to be my female companion, but you rejected and said I could hire you to be my female companion instead since you’re an actual woman.”

Hearing Josh’s mutter, Jasmine immediately hooked his arm, put a smile on her pretty face, and fiercely pinched him. Her gaze swept her surroundings and saw that no one noticed her, so she immediately dropped her smile.

She said viciously, “Josh Bucham, are you trying to hit on my brother? I’m warning. you, even if you’re from the Bucham family with power and influence, I won’t let you have your way with Drake. My brother is a straight man!”

Josh was wincing from her pinch. When he heard her stern warning, he stopped, looked at her, and said in amusement, “Ms. Sox, are you misunderstanding something? How could I possibly be hitting on your brother?

“If I like men, isn’t Zachary more handsome? We have young and handsome elites in our company. I really don’t need to hit on your brother.”

“Then why did you suggest having my brother dress as a woman to be your plus one?”

Jasmine agreed to be Josh’s female companion not only because he spent a lot of money to hire her, but also because he said that if she did not do him this favor, he would ask Drake to dress up as a woman instead.

Josh laughed. “Would you be my date if I didn’t say that?”

Jasmine was dumbfounded. “So you’re really not gay?”

Josh’s expression darkened, and he said, “Ms. Sox, you asked me if I could do it. when we went on our blind date. Although that wasn’t what you meant, it’s easy for a man to misunderstand and take it the wrong way when you question his abilities.

“Now, you’re asking me if I’m gay. Will you believe me if I say no? If I wanted to try it ,out with you, you, would you think of me as a rogue?”
