Chapter 426 - Making use of truth serum (1/2)

In one of two presidential suites on the top floor of the resort on Lake Tahoe, Jeff is on an oversized chair, and he cradled in his arms JoAnna who is seated in his lap.

She asked him to be serious and answer few questions, and he accepted without putting up any resistance.

JoAnna wants to make use of the truth serum, so she is trying to come up with questions that she thinks Jeff would avoid answering if he has a choice. After few 'test' questions, she confirmed that he is providing answers without any hesitation in a matter-of-factly manner. JoAnna decided to start asking tricky ones.

”Jeff, honey, is it true that you don't lie to me?”

”Yes.”

JoAnna thought for a moment. 'I need to frame my questions properly if I want to find out anything useful. This might be my only chance!' Her eyes lit up as she thought of a good one. ”Is there something you are not telling me?”

”Yes.”

JoAnna's ears perked up. ”Tell me something you are hiding from me.”

”After our wedding, I will take one month off from work, for our honeymoon.”

JoAnna inhaled sharply. 'Is it possible? Did I hear him right? Oh, I can just ask him.' She smiled; her eyes were full of excitement. ”One month? How can you take such a long vacation?”

”Oscar will work as a temporary CEO.”

JoAnna was all giddy thinking about one month, just the two of them. ”How did you persuade him into that?”

”It's his wedding present for us. He called it present of time.”

JoAnna was honestly happy with this gift. For her, nothing matters more than spending time with Jeff. If Oscar is handling things while Jeff is away, there is a chance that they can enjoy their honeymoon without Jeff getting calls from work. ”Aren't you afraid that he will mess up things in the company?”

Jeff shook his head. ”No. There is only one thing I'm afraid of.”
