Two Years Later

No One's Pov
"Good morning, Miss Vaux" the Prisme employees greeted as Jax entered the company, her usual cold aura and strict vibes were all over the place.


Her secretary then approaches her,


"Miss Vaux, you have an outdoor meeting this lunch. Your Dad will also be there and he's asking if you will go with him?" the secretary was keeping up her pace to keep up with her boss,


"I'll be with him. Is that all I have today?" Jax replied, a cold tone.


"Yes, Miss Vaux" the secretary replied, Jax nodded and head to her office.




She sat on her chair and now looking at the documents she needs to finish all throughout the day.




At some days at work, her dad casually interrupts her. The reason? Just to check on Jax.



"Don't forget our meeting later" Mr. Priam spoke as he entered her daughter's office, only to receive a nod from her.



He stares at her only daughter, observing. Then he crosses his arms while standing.



"I was wondering, do you want to meet someone?" he spoke, Jax immediately stops her work and stare at her dad.



"Dad, stop it. I don't want to go on blind dates again like what you made me do few years ago. And I don't want to meet someone" she spoke, stern.


"Okay. But if you want, just tell me" he spoke before leaving,


"Can't let me just focus on work?" Jax mumbled, and continuing her work.




Lunch.

Jax and Mr. Priam were on their way to a restaurant for the meeting. They were lead to a private room.


"Good afternoon, Mr. Vaux and of course Jax" the client spoke, Jax smiled and nodded.


"Let's take our seats" Mr. Priam spoke, and they all seated.


"Let's keep this casual. Aside from the product collaborations that has been finalized, I also want to have lunch with my friend and his daughter" the client spoke,


"Well, thank you for having us Mr. Rousseau" Mr. Priam spoke,



"Anyway, how are you Jax? Still busy at work?" Mr. Rousseau asked turning at Jax,



"I'm doing good, thanks for asking. And yes, busy at work" she replied with a smile, the man nodded,



"Do you have someone?" Mr. Rousseau spoke, Jax shake her head and curved her lips,



"I don't" she simply replied, Mr. Priam just shrugged his shoulders from his daughter's reply,



"Well, that's good to hear. If you want, I can talk to Arielle, she just came back from England and she'll stay here for good" Mr. Rousseau spoke,



Mr. Priam looked at his daughter who was a little surprised but managed to it hide quickly.



"Uhm, I don't think so Mr. Rousseau. Arielle and I already went on our own ways and get back to our lives. It doesn't seem right to arrange her again" Jax spoke, Mr. Rousseau nodded in understanding her.



"Oh right. But always remember that if you would find each other again, it's completely fine from me and her mom. We still trust you for her" Mr. Rousseau spoke, Jax can only smile with it.
