Chapter 819 Priceless Treasure
Juniper was thinking about this issue and gradually fell asleep.
When she woke up, it was already daylight.
The waiter had just pushed the food cart in, and Anthony made a shushing gesture to him, signaling him to be quieter.
This small gesture made Juniper feel very warm inside.
"Morning."
"You're awake? Did the food cart wake you?" Anthony came over and naturally kissed her on the head.
"No, I woke up on my own. I slept so well." Juniper sat up and stretched lazily.
"Was it because I was holding you that you slept so well?"
Of course.
She rarely shared a bed with anyone, but she didn't mind him at all.
But if she didn't show some arrogance, she wouldn't be Juniper. "No, it's because I was so busy and tired yesterday that I fell asleep quickly."
"Oh, really? Are you sure?"
"I'm not talking to you anymore. I'm going to brush my teeth and wash my face. I'm hungry."
This time, Juniper didn't forget to take all her clothes into the bathroom.
She came out after changing.
Anthony was once again amazed.
In her professional attire, she looked both sharp and feminine.
Juniper raised her chin, "Why are you staring? It's not like you don't know I'm beautiful."
"I've always known, but I'm still amazed every time." Anthony murmured, "It's a different kind of charm."
"Oh? How is it different?" Juniper sat down and picked up a sandwich.
"When you wear a T-shirt, you look youthful. In professional attire, you look competent. Last night's pajamas... very sexy."
Anthony blushed again as he spoke.
"Don't think too much so early in the morning, okay? Calm down, really, you're so improper."
"If a man is proper in front of the woman he loves, then something's wrong."
He said this with such sincerity that it left Juniper both amused and exasperated.
This was completely unlike his usual style.
Shaking her head, Juniper said, "Anthony, you've changed."
"Changed to make you love me more?"
"No, changed to be more of a rogue."
"But a rogue you love!" Anthony pinched her collagen-filled cheek, enjoying the feel.
"How do you know?"
"One hundred percent sure."
"Haha... you rascal!"
After breakfast, Anthony drove Juniper to work. The person he coordinated with wasn't Rock but another female manager. Apparently, Rock had been fired for some unknown mistake.
That day, she was extremely efficient, completing two days' worth of work in just one day.
After work, Anthony was already waiting for her at the company entrance.
"Did you fire Rock?"
"Yes, I'm sorry I..."
"Why apologize? You did great!" Juniper gave a thumbs up.
"I was worried you'd think I was too domineering."
"Not at all. When it's time to be domineering, you should be. Keeping that scumbag in the company would only harm other female employees. He should've been fired long ago. Applause for you."
Anthony smiled, "I'm glad you don't think I'm too domineering."
"Not at all. I have a very clear sense of right and wrong. For people like him, there's no need to be lenient!"
Juniper added, "With a new female manager, the efficiency is much higher. What was supposed to take three days was finished today. Let's head back early."
"Since we have an extra day, why not stay here and make it a trip?" Anthony suggested.
"Come on, you're the CEO of two big companies. How are you so free? Shouldn't you have a lot to do? So playful."
"If I had to handle everything personally, what's the point of having so many people under me?" Anthony raised an eyebrow.
It seemed to make a lot of sense.
Juniper would criticize him, but she was also quite playful herself. "So where do you want to go?"
"This is my first time in this city too."
"Then let's visit the most famous spots and take some photos?"
"Sure."
The next day, they got up early and started their journey.
In the summer heat, Juniper wore a straw hat, a long dress, and a backless design, attracting many eyes.
Anthony was also dressed simply but elegantly, drawing admiring glances from women.
Walking together, they were a top-tier match in terms of looks, style, and aura, making people marvel.
When Juniper took selfies at the scenic spots, Anthony's face would always pop into the frame.
After several times, she couldn't help but laugh, exasperated. "Can you let me take a solo picture? Can you? I haven't posted on social media for a long time. Do you want me to post pictures of just the scenery without me?"
"Haven't we taken many nice photos together? Why not post those?"
"That would make people think we're together."
"Then let's be together." Anthony meant it.
"You want to make our relationship public?" Juniper raised an eyebrow.
"Yes."
"Mr. Eilish, don't forget we haven't confirmed our relationship yet." Juniper joked, "And if I post it, everyone who knows you will see it, and it'll cause a stir."
"Then let it cause a stir."
"You want to make a big deal out of it, don't you?" Juniper couldn't help but laugh, "You said you'd pursue me, and now you're already impatient after just a few days?"
"It's not impatience, I just really want you to be my girlfriend."
Juniper put away her phone and asked with interest, "How much do you want it?"
"More than anything in the world."
"Wow, that's impressive. What if you had to trade the entire Eilish Group for it?"
"It was yours to begin with."
"Mine?"
"If we get married, our assets will be shared, right? Not only that, I can give you all my monthly income."
"Sounds like I'm getting a good deal?"
"No, I'm the one getting a good deal. You're priceless, far more than a company."
Juniper was very moved, "Really? I'm worth more than billions of dollars, I feel so valuable."
"Of course."
"Then I get to manage the household finances?"
"Yes."
"Everything listens to me?"
"Yes."
"What's yours is mine, and what's mine is still mine?"
"Yes."
It sounded great, a deal with no loss, Juniper laughed, "With 'business' like this, how did you become a CEO? You're giving away the whole company."
"I told you, it's not a loss, it's a gain. I'm the truly smart one."
Juniper thought for a moment, then playfully nodded, "That's true. A super beauty like me, with looks, body, and brains, is one of a kind in the world. So overall, you're still gaining."
Thinking about how "valuable" she was, her vanity soared, feeling very pleased.
"So, Ms. Cooper, can you give me a chance to gain the 'greatest treasure' of my life?"
