President's Substitute Wife

Chapter 270 Who is Lester?

“No, I dare not bring this little devil.”

I said with a smile.

At this time, the manager came back to Jonas. It seemed that some guests want to see him. I said quickly, “you can do your business. I’m going upstairs.”

After Jonas left, I was going upstairs.

I looked up and saw Sean standing at the corner of the stairs. He was wearing a black shirt and black trousers.

The light in the dining room was dim and yellow, but it couldn’t cover his cold breath.

I couldn’t help but step back.

I was a little flustered.

When did he come?

Did he hear me talking to Jonas just now?

And I mentioned Lester.

Ming told Sean we had a child, but he didn’t react much.

I thought he may not believe it.

But this time Jonas asked me.

“Who is Lester?”

Sure enough, his first question was this.

I reflected on what I had just said. I hesitated for a moment before I said, “it’s my dog in Sceaux.”

I didn’t even believe it.

“Dog?” He stood on the steps and looked down at me.

His deep eyes were chilling.

“Yes, a dog. It’s a husky.” I looked at Sean. To convince him, I went on, “it’s very naughty but it’s very fond of Uncle Richards.”

When I finished, I thought about what I had just said, and realized that my lie was poor.

He said coldly, “Oh.” He didn’t go on asking and just said, “go upstairs. They are all waiting for you.”

I realized that Sean would have dinner with me, too.

Why didn’t I think of it? David couldn’t insist on inviting me for no reason.

He did it for Sean.

But now that I was here, I couldn’t leave.

I followed Sean upstairs.

Tang Time’s box was also designed with special charm.

Although we were sitting in this box, I could see that the people in the next few boxes were barefoot.

It was classic.

When we got into the box, I saw the people I saw when I came to York.

David was as enthusiastic as ever.

There were only two empty seats in the box. Sean sat down first. The other seat was next to him.

I couldn’t let anyone give me a seat. I could only sit in the only available seat.

I sat down and hesitated. I texted Ming first, “Sean is here today. Don’t worry. I don’t drink.”

I sent this message because Ming and I didn’t discuss it, but we were already lovers to some extent.

In that case, I should take the initiative to tell him. I respected him.

Soon I got a message from Ming, “I see. I’ll pick you up in the evening.”

“Are you informing my uncle?” Sean’s voice came from the side.

His voice was cold and without any emotion.

I thought about it and turned to look at him. I smiled. “Yeah. I must tell him that I saw you so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstanding.”

“You are right.”

Sean nodded and said nothing.

I didn’t know what he meant.

The waiter wanted to pour me wine at dinner. Before I spoke, Sean said, “she doesn’t drink.”

I looked at him in surprise. I didn’t know what he meant.

David had always praised my design. He said the club would definitely attract a lot of people in the future.

If it was before today, I would be happy to accept it.

But today, Tang Time’s design really made me feel inferior.

At dinner, Sean basically talked to Mr. Lopez of the Design Institute. He hardly looked at me or talked to me.

It reminded me of the first time we had dinner together.

Sean seemed to have this attitude towards me.

Did he decide to let go of the past?

It was good.

I told myself in my heart. At the same time, I suppressed my depression.

At the end of the dinner, David suddenly said, “this time President Jessop takes care of Miss Jones. He has a special office for her. It rained heavily when Miss Jones came. President Jessop knew that Miss Jones didn’t come back with the car. He drove to find her!”

Was he looking for me that time?

I looked at Sean and I was in a mixed mood.

Did he know that I was me then?

Otherwise, how could...

But I couldn’t say anything at this time. I could only lift the teacup in front of me and say, “thank you, President Jessop. If you didn’t help me that day, I would be ill. I drink a toast to you.”

Sean looked at me deadpan. He just picked up the glass and said, “OK.”

Then he looked up and finished his drink.

Maybe David was drunk. He watched Sean drink and began to say, “unfortunately President Jessop has a wife, otherwise I think President Jessop and Miss Jones are very well matched.”

“David, you’re drunk.” Mr. Lopez was obviously good at drinking. He quickly persuaded David, “Miss Jones has a boyfriend. Don’t talk nonsense.”

“Really?” David touched his head. “I’m sorry. I drink too much.”

I took an awkward look at Sean.

His expression did not change.

The dinner was over.

When we went out, it rained a little bit.

“It’s raining. President Jessop, please send Miss Jones back.” David was drunk. He was still trying to match Sean and me.

“I...”

“No, her boyfriend has come to pick her up.”

Before I finished, Sean answered.

I turned and saw Ming coming out of the car. He was carrying a black umbrella and came towards the door.

Ming approached and reached for me and said softly, “watch out for the steps.”

I hesitated for a moment and put my hand in his palm.

His hand was noticeably cold. He waited for me outside for a long time.

I couldn’t help feeling a little guilty.

David shook his head when he saw it. “Miss Jones’s boyfriend is very considerate. President Jessop, you don’t have a chance.”

No one answered.

Ming and I got in the car and left.

I didn’t speak to Sean.

When we got to the door of the studio, it rained heavily. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Ming got out of the car and picked me up. When I got off the car, I noticed a man standing in the rain.

The man saw me and said weakly, “June, you’re back.”
