Duplicate Daddy

Lunch Together

"Justin, go to lunch! Take Jillian with you!"

The deg!

Not only one heart is shocked, but two hearts. The two could say nothing more than silence.

"Wait moreover? It's lunch time" said Darsh.

Justin is not feeling well. Not because of Darsh, but Frey and Max. Both men still liked Jillian.

"Darsh, I'm sorry. I can't just hurt my best friend" he objected.

Darsh knows that Justin is a good guy. He can't hurt his best friend even a little bit. He needs to be forced a little to accept Darsh's request.

"Jill, come out for a second! I want to talk to Justin for a minute."

Jillian doesn't know where to go. At least she didn't want to make her brother wait for long. He left the room immediately.

"Justin, there's something you want to know about Jillian's arrival. I apologized to you earlier. I'm a little pushy. I don't mean to interfere in your affairs, but Jillian is still my sister and she deserves to be happy."

"Then, what does this have to do with me, Darsh?" ask Justin.

"Jillian's coming here to find a future husband. I apologized earlier. Make sure Jillian doesn't know what I'm saying. He's been heartbroken with Frey. He won't choose Max either. My only last sight is of you" explained Darsh.

"Why should I and not Owen?" ask Justin.

This is a reasonable question according to Darsh. Both of his friends are looking for a partner. Darsh is unlikely to choose Owen because his busyness clearly cannot leave the Cafe he just pioneered. While Justin, the guy has a track record of once liking Jillian and his position is now very easy to replace his Om Felix.

"I believe you, Justin." Darsh approaches his best friend and then gives his spirit by hitting him on the shoulder lovingly. It's not easy for Justin. In a moment not only his attempt to approach Jillian again, but he will feel at odds with Max again. Not to mention that Jillian had already accepted it. In a few years, Frey will be back. What would that man say?

"Darsh, I can't do it." Justin refused. He felt that there would be a huge commotion if he accepted Jillian back.

"I'm not forcing you. Take my sister for lunch and talk. There's still time for three months. After that, give it your decision!"

Justin can breathe. Of course, for three months it is not easy to live it. However, rejecting Darsh is no longer possible.

"alright. I'll do it."

"Thank you" replied Darsh.

Justin is out looking for Jillian's whereabouts. He tried to organize his heart and feelings to be neutral in front of the girl. There was something strange in him. His heart beat faster when facing Jillian.

"Jill," called Justin when he found the girl on the rooftop. It was not difficult to find her because before Jillian went to the rooftop, the girl had told the receptionist to tell her brother that she was looking for herself directly into the rooftop.

"Sister Justin?" Jillian thought her brother would look for her. Apparently he's wrong.

"We went to lunch together. That's if you want, too" Justin said. He couldn't have forced her. In order to get close to the girl, he had to make her comfortable first.

"Is it a comfortable place to eat and the menu is very good?"

Justin is a responsible man. He will take his responsibility well.

"All right."

...🍒🍒🍒...

Star Restaurant was not far from the office of DD Corporation. Justin deliberately invited him there because the atmosphere was very crowded. All the food is good. Although many visitors, this place is very comfortable and not rowdy.

While waiting for the food they had ordered, Justin began his conversation. He wants to start over again.

"What's your purpose here for a vacation?" ask Justin. He had to choose the right words not to hurt the girl. Nor will he remind her of Frey or Max.

"Yes, Brother. I just finished my education. Before I replace daddy, I want to enjoy my long vacation."

"How long?"

"A little more than three months, but if before that I'm bored, then I'll be home soon."

Justin was confused to ask the girl. Fortunately, the order came soon. They enjoyed lunch in silence.

"Sister, this is amazing" said Jillian. The lunch was very good and made it comfortable to be in this restaurant.

"Do you want to add more?"

"No, Brother. This is enough for me."

Jillian looks very different. After meeting a few months ago, there was a lot of change in the girl. Maybe because Justin's current gaze was on him. So that girl looks so pretty in her eyes.

Ending a delicious lunch because with Jillian, makes Justin have to think again about Darsh's words. Frey has left Jillian. Jillian won't pick Max either. Justin is not taking a chance in narrowness, but he is given a full chance by Jillian's older cousin.

"Jill, will you take a walk with me? Maybe I'll take you to Owen's cafe."

Jillian stopped eating. A little more done. Jillian's mind began to be affected by her mommy's words. Sometimes he has to let go of the person he loves for the sake of the person who truly loves him. Complicated indeed, but building a new habit is wrong. He will bury his ideals for life if he gets into the company. That is why, three months time will be used as best as possible to find a mate. Justin is not a bad guy. He's also handsome. Especially being his cousin's assistant. Means he has high potential to be able to replace his daddy.

Don't give up, Jill! If your love goes away, there is no harm in trying to fill it with another love. Right now you need certainty, not an uncertain hope.

"Ehm, sure. We'll make another appointment. Brother Justin can tell me through this number." Jillian gave Justin a business card. He deliberately made the business card for new people who will establish business relationships and friendships with him. Let's not make it complicated to take out the phone or something. Everything becomes simpler.

"Thank you." Justin put the card in his wallet. He did not want to lose such a big opportunity. He needs Jillian. This is a rare opportunity and it must be taken.

After lunch, Jillian intends to return to her cousin's office. However, Justin held him back for a moment to speak seriously.

"Jill, wait a minute! We'll get back together. Oh yeah, I wanted to apologize to you earlier. Maybe this is too soon. However, I asked for one more chance to get to know you from the beginning. Would you allow it?"

Jillian nodded. "Sure, Brother."

Justin felt like he wanted to jump as high as possible because this happiness was immeasurable. He got a good job as Darsh's assistant and now gets a good chance to get to know Jillian. Patience will bear sweet fruit.
