Chapter 481 No Face was Given
Chapter 481 No Face was Given
"Yo-You don't recognize me?" Blanchett stuttered.
"Should I?" Jacob asked.
Blanchett’s expression looked so shocked a s if she got struck by lightning. She then became a little depressed.
Anna was pleased immediately. She triumphantly gave Blanchett a sideways glance, "You heard it yourself. Jacob doesn't know you, so you can leave now."
Blanchett gritted her teeth and looked at Jacob earnestly with her big blue eyes, "We met at a conference last year when you came to participate in a tech seminar."
Tech seminar?
Jacob gave off a thoughtful look.
Blanchett saw the opportunity and added immediately, "Many people were not very convinced by your SL system at that time and challenged you on the spot."
Jacob took a good look at Blanchett and suddenly realized, "Oh, you were the first person who came forward and challenged me?"
Blanchett blushed and nodded faintly and bashfully, "It's me. I didn't know you were such a pro in programming."
Having recalled Blanchett, Jacob nodded lightly, "The knowledge of programming is vast, and I still have a lot to learn. So I wouldn't call myself a pro."
Such high-end skills, yet such a humble attitude... Blanchett was even more starstruck than before. "Anyway, when compared to you, the programming skills that I take pride in are simply not worth mentioning.”
Jacob nodded seriously. “That is true. Skillwise, you’re still a newbie."
Blanchett was left speechless.
Skillwise, you're still a newbie...
That was brutal. No face was given at all back there!
But Blanchett picked herself up at once and continued, "Everyone left their email address at the seminar. Later on, when I encountered something that I didn't understand, I sent you a few emails and you answered me patiently.”
Blanchett gazed at Jacob shyly. "You're really a great man."
Blanchett's flushed face made Anna extremely nervous.
This Blanchett girl should also be very into programming, so she and Jacob must have a lot of common topics.
Besides, Jacob had always been indifferent, but he was willing to reply to her emails. Was it that...
Anna's face turned pale.
"Email?" Jacob was perplexed for a second, then said, “That email address of mine is managed by the company. I basically don't log in to it."
Blanchett was stunned again, "What?
That’s impossible. You don't have to lie, Shelby."
Jacob frowned, "Why should I? This is the operations director of our company, you can ask him."
Jacob dragged Seth out of the bunch.
"Hi, gorgeous," Seth greeted Blanchett enthusiastically.
Blanchett could not help but bite her lips and ask, "Is what he said true?”
"Although I wish to tell you that it's not, unfortunately, it’s indeed true. Jacob’s mailbox is managed by the company, so the person who replied to your email should be one of our programmers," Seth said sympathetically.
Blanchett's expression looked as if she just got knocked down by a truck.
Anna became complacent out of a sudden. She knew it!
She still could not conquer Jacob after working so hard for so long. This woman who appeared from nowhere was destined t o fail.
"In short, Jacob doesn't know you and won’t want to know you. Now, can you go?" Anna said.
Blanchett clamped her jaw tightly, but replied, "It doesn't matter if you didn't know me before this, but we can always get to know each other later. I'll never give up o n you, Shelby."
She turned around and left after saying that.
"What the hell does this woman want?"
Anna looked gloomy, and she felt a strong sense of crisis deep down.
Today's incident sounded the alarm for her. Jacob was such an outstanding person —there would definitely only be more and more people who liked him.
She had been waiting for Jacob for so long, yet she had not been able to capture the heart of the plank. If someone else were to cut the queue and seize the price, she would surely be depressed to death.
“Blanchett... This name sounds familiar. And that look, I might've seen her somewhere else.” Seth patted his head, then gave off a somewhat surprised expression. "Jacob, that girl, Blanchett, she seems to be Brad Dixon's only daughter."
Brad Dixon's daughter?
Everybody was a little surprised.
Susan reacted to the discovery immediately, to what Brad said to her at the celebration party.
It was all out of parental love!
Jacob also remembered what Susan had told him and creased his brows slightly.
So what if she’s Brad Dixon's daughter?
She can't just snatch someone else's man." Anna was a little anxious.
"Someone else's man? Jacob belongs to someone else?" Seth asked with a smirk.
Anna realized that she had misspoken. She blushed and kept quiet immediately.
Jacob took a glimpse at Anna silently.
He had been treating Anna coldly during this period, hoping that she would give up o n her own initiative, but unexpectedly, his strategy did not seem to have any effect.
"Okay, let's go to the airport first. It's already late " Luna smoothed things over.
"Yeah, let's go to the airport first," Susan said immediately.
The private jet was already waiting at the airport.
When everybody was about to board the plane, they saw Blanchett rushing towards them, "Wait! Can I tag along?" "No! Keep dreaming." Anna became furious when she saw Blanchett, and she could not help but respond impolitely.
Blanchett ignored Anna and looked at George. "What do you think?"
As George was about to speak, his cell phone rang suddenly.
George picked up the call and could not help but frown.
He then glanced at Blanchett and said, "Get on the plane." This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
"Thank you." Blanchett looked happy and scooted over to Jacob's side instantly. She then gazed at Jacob with admiration.
Anna almost died from her own wrath. ' Dad, this woman..." "That's enough Anna, don't be so rude," George said solemnly.
George did not care much about the love affairs of his youngest, but there were some things that he could not let Anna have her way with.
Anna knew her father's disposition. She gritted her teeth, and it took her a long time to agree aggrievedly.
"Anna." Susan saw that Anna was downcast. She could not help but drag Anna to the side and comfort her. "Don’t worry. It's just Blanchett's wishful thinking. Jacob won’t like her.”
