See You Never, Mr. Lamont

Chapter 172

Chapter 172 As Irresponsible as Always No, it’s not possible. If Claudia was really a member of Enigma, she wouldn’t have been so calm when she revealed her identity. Moreover, Claudia was abandoned from a young age and raised by an old lady who scavenged for a living. It was simply impossible for her to have any opportunity to enter Enigma. It must have been a system error. Eileen’s heart raced for a moment, her fingers pinching her palm as she struggled to maintain her composure on her face. She glanced at Claudia, clenched her teeth, and felt full of vigilance in her heart. Upon hearing Eileen’s words, Thomas breathed a sigh of relief and chuckled, “Well… why don’t we all have a meal first.” Then he looked at Edmond and said, “Mr. Lamont, let’s go together.” Edmond did not refuse and politely nodded, “Thank you, Thomas.” After finishing speaking, he naturally sat next to Claudia. Seeing Edmond sitting next to her, Claudia’s heart ski pped a beat and she instinctively wanted to stand up and change seats. She had just stood up when the others’ gazes turned toward her. Thinking about her earlier words, “It’s not related to Mr. Lamont anymore,” her hand, which was about to move the chair, hung in mid- air. chaotic scene. “I’ll switch places with you,” Waldron said with a playful smile as he walked over, his gaze icy when it landed on Edmond. This Edmond, surprisingly, hasn’t given up yet! Claudia nodded and was about to get up when Edmond’s indifferent voice sounded, “Isn’t it okay now? Why do you still care so much about a position?” Claudia’s face stiffened instantly.

Waldron sneered, “What does she have to care about? It’s me whọ cares.”

After finishing speaking, he pulled Claudia aside and sat on the chair, supporting his chin with his wrist, laughing wildly: “It’s really enviable to have Mr. Lamont surrounded by two women, but unfortunately, I can’t stand people being indecisive.” His gaze lightly fell on Eileen, “Ms. Schmidt, your identity is extraordinary. Marrying Mr. Lamont is simply a perfect match. When you two get married, don’t forget to invite me!” Upon hearing these words, Eileen’s face turned red and she quickly waved her hands, saying, “You have misunderstood, Mr. Lamont and I are just friends now.” “We are just friends now, but in the future, we will become husband and wife. Not bad, that’s the rhythm.” Waldron clapped his hands, which seemed particularly abrupt in this quiet environment. Claudia remained silent and started drinking the bisque in front of her. This bisque was made with seafood, it was smooth, fragrant, and had a 13.92% 17:42 velvety texture when eaten. “I also think Eileen and Mr. Lamont are a perfect match,” Elva noticed Eileen’s thoughts and quickly intervened, “Although Mr. Lamont is divorced, he is now a eligible bachelor…” Upon hearing the phrase “golden bachelor,” Claudia choked on her bisque, suddenly coughing. Edmond turned his gaze toward her, his deep eyes carrying a hint of curiosity. Claudia faintly opened her eyes and slightly curled her lips. Before Rosalie, there was Eileen, and unexpectedly, Edmond was quite popular. She held a spoon and stirred in the bowl. “Mr. Lamont, they were just talking nonsense, please don’t mind…” Eileen’s face turned red to the roots of her neck, probably afraid that Edmond would misunderstand. She was about to explain a few words when Edmond faintly said, “Hmm,” and then added, “Didn’t you

just say you were hungry? Let’s eat first.” Now, Eileen’s face became even redder. No denial, does that mean there is a chance? Elva’s teasing gaze fell on Eileen, and she gave her a thumbs up. The atmosphere became increasingly awkward, Claudia took a few bites of bisque and immediately lost her appetite. Just then, Eileen said to Claudia, “Miss Claudia, the bisque in front of you looks good, can you…” She held an empty bowl, wanting to speak but hesitating. Claudia looked at the large bowl of bisque in front of her and suddenly realized that Eileen wanted her to serve the bisque. It was originally just a small matter, but for some reason, Claudia suddenly didn’t want to move. This Eileen was Elva’s friend, or the traitor in Enigma, she couldn’t muster any enthusiasm for such a person. She pretended not to hear, not even lifting her eyes, and continued stirring the bisque in the bowl. Eileen stood awkwardly, holding a bowl. The maid, upon seeing the situation, quickly took the bowl and served her a bowl. “Ms. Schmidt, just let our maid serve you whatever dish you want. We don’t have the habit of feeding each other in our family,” said Emily. She had been suppressing her anger for a long time, and now she couldn’t help but mock Eileen when she saw her “bossing around” her own daughter. Eileen then noticed that there was a maid standing behind each person, each of them holding a fork, clearly meant for picking up food. The Friedan family’s dining table was a long table, filled with a variety of dishes. The dishes were almost never repeated, so if one didn’t grab them quickly, they would only be able to eat what was in front of them. The Friedan family was so extravagant even when it came to having a meal. Eileen blushed in embarrassment and said, “Thank you, it’s my first time eating… I’m not used to it yet.”

Emily’s face turned cold, but deep down, she rolled her eyes. past but she remained determined to have professional chef’s deliver Cuve meals a day to her Clusia could only smile and agree. ler a tense meal. Edmond also got up and left when she said she was Eileen originally wanted to leave as well, but considering that this trip was mainly for Elva and the purpose of discussing cooperation with the Friedan family, she decided to stay. Claudia had just walked out of the mansion gate when a familiar voice called out to her Under the sunlight, Edmond’s slender eyes narrowed slightly, his handsome features exuding a cold aura. His voice was deep and carried a lax tone as he said, “I heard that now, among the entire Friedan family, you are the most favored.” །། “Numors,” Claudia chuckled lightly, her dazzling eyes calm and erene. “Mr. Lamont, not waiting for Ms. Schmidt?” Leaving Eileen on her own like that, it was not a gentlemanly behavion In Edmond’s deep gaze, there was a tinge of blood and an aura of abyss-like danger “I didn’t want to wait,” he said in a light and casual tone, as if it was the most ordinary thing Upon hearing such derogatory remarks, Claudia was speechless for a Row seconds and sarcastically remarked, “Tsk, still so irresponsible.” It’s as it blaming him for not being responsible back then. She was the one who was not responsible, even though she should have been. His eyes narrowed dangerously, with a hint of thin redness at the corners. Immediately, his gaze fell upon her stomach and, as expected, he saw her instinctively cover it, her face showing a hint of panic. Was he a fierce beast? She seemed to be afraid every time he looked at her stomach.

Edmond’s thin lips curled slightly, his tone carrying a hint of indifference, “What if I wanted to take responsibility?”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
