Jas was annoyed in an instant.
Thinking of this, Jas cleared his throat and said, "What do you want to eat today? Please feel free to order. It’s on ."
As he spoke, he pulled out a chair and sat down.
At this ti, everyone looked at him. Janice embarrassedly looked at Yvonne. She knew how much Yvonne disliked him.
When Janice thought of this, she hurriedly said, "There’s no need. It’s my treat today."
"How can I let you pay the bill? I’m familiar with the boss here. Of course I should treat you." Jas said straightforwardly.
Hearing this, Janice looked at Christopher with so embarrassnt.
She hoped that Christopher could stop her, but Christopher said, "Since he wants to do so, let him do so."
Janice was dumfounded.
She carefully glanced at Yvonne, only to see her looking down at her phone.
Just as she was worried, her phone rang. It was a ssage from Yvonne.
Janice was confused because Yvonne just sat opposite her and she could just speak to her. However, she still clicked on it.
"Why is he here?" asked Yvonne.
Janice glanced at her and then typed, "I don’t know either. He is my boss now. Please don’t quarrel with him."
Yvonne frowned. "OK."
Upon seeing her reply, Janice let out a sigh of relief.
"Thank you, Yvonne."
As soon as she put down her phone, she heard Yvonne say, "I want all the dishes on the nu."
As soon as she said that, everyone looked at her in surprise.
Yvonne seed to ignore all of them. She handed the nu to the waiter and turned
to look at them.
She asked, "What’s wrong? Do you have a problem with that?"
Christopher and Jas did not speak. Jas shook her head and said, "Of course not. However, Yvonne, are you sure you want all of them?"
Yvonne nodded. "Of course, isn’t it on Mr. Taylor? Of course I have to show so respect. Mr. Taylor, what do you think?"
Jas was stunned at first, but when he t Yvonne’s gaze, he quickly said, "Of course."
Since Jas had said so, there was no need for Janice to continue. However, she did not understand what Yvonne was doing.
"I’m going to the toilet."
Yvonne got up and walked to the toilet.
Janice quickly followed her.
She caught up with Yvonne and asked, "Yvonne, what are you doing?"
Yvonne looked puzzled. "What’s wrong?"
Janice said, "I know you don’t like Jas, but you don’t have to order everything."
Yvonne said with a shrug, "He’s rich. It’s not a big deal for him."
When Janice was about to say sothing, Yvonne interrupted, "Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing."
She patted Janice on the shoulder and entered the toilet.
Janice watched her leave. She helplessly shook her head and followed her in. "Chris, we ’re quits."
Jas finally found a chance to be alone with Chris.
Christopher glanced at him indifferently and did not say a word.
Jas was anxious.
"Chris, it’s my fault. I shouldn’t have ntioned that matter. Please let go. Please."
Jas made a bow with hands folded in front.
...
Christopher looked at Jas with a frown. Of course, he knew Jas did it unintentionally.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have let him off lightly.
In fact, he did not bla Jas, but that project was exactly what he wanted. Even if this matter didn’t happen, he would still take it.
Just when he was about to speak...
"Chris?"
Suddenly, there was a voice from above.
Christopher looked up and saw Sophie standing beside the table.
His eyes turned cold. Pretending as if he hadn’t seen anything, he picked up the glass of water on the table.
Sophie was embarrassed, then she looked at Jas.
"Jas."
Jas’s first reaction when he saw Sophie was to see Chris’s reaction.
He saw Chris remain stolid, but his aura was slightly colder.
He asked, "When did you co back?"
Sophie answered, "I ca back two days ago. You are still so handso."
Jas was embarrassed by the complint.
"Really?"
He stroked his hair smugly.
Sophie’s gaze turned to Christopher. Seeing the empty seat next to him, she was delighted.
"Just the two of you?"
Seeing that Chris did not want to answer, Jas said, "No, there are two more..."
Before he could finish his words, his foot under the table was kicked hard by Chris.
Jas instantly understood and quickly shut up.
Seeing that Jas suddenly shut up, Sophie was about to ask him. As soon as her lips moved, Christopher said, "Soone is waiting for you over there."
Hearing this, Sophie followed his gaze and saw Quentin Vincent who ca with her standing in the corridor.
She hurriedly explained, "He’s a friend of mine. We..."
Before she could finish her explanation, Christopher interrupted her. "Since you are friends, don’t let him wait too long."
Hearing this, Sophie’s face paled, and she imdiately understood his aning. She embarrassedly looked away and said, "Well, I’ll go first."
After she finished speaking, her eyes fell on Christopher, but he did not look at her.
Instead, he lowered his head to look at his mobile phone.
Sophie pursed her lips with slight disappointnt. Later, she left.
After she left, Jas let out a sigh of relief.
Just now, his heart had been in his throat, and he was afraid that she would blurt out, "eat together". If that happened, things would be complicated.
He subconsciously looked at Christopher. "By the way, didn’t she live a good life in Switzerland? Why did she suddenly co back?"
Christopher did not answer, but his cold face made Jas understand that he could not ntion this topic again.
He could only take back what he wanted to say.
Janice and Yvonne ca out of the toilet. From a distance, she saw a familiar figure walking past in the corridor.
She felt that the figure seed to be Sophie.
Because that figure quickly disappeared, she was unable to see it clearly, and she just thought
Then she stopped thinking about it and sat down. She found that the atmosphere at the table was a little strange and asked in confusion, "What happened?"
Hearing her question, Christopher looked over and asked, "What?"
Janice said, "Why do the two of you look so weird?"
Before Christopher could reply, Jas cut in, "No, we are quite normal."
"Really?" She looked at Christopher.
...
Christopher didn’t say anything and just nodded.
Only then did Janice stop asking. She picked up her tableware and was about to eat. Suddenly, Christopher said, "I’m going out for a smoke."
As he spoke, he got up and walked downstairs.
Looking at his back, Janice felt weird.
She looked at Jas, but before she was about to ask if sothing had happened, he also stood up while saying, "I’m going out to smoke too."
Then Jas followed Christopher downstairs in a hurry.
Janice was more confused while staring at the two of them.
"Janice, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and eat." Yvonne reminded her.
Only then did Janice pick up her cutlery.
On the other side, Sophie and Quentin sat there while Quentin was asking about her hobbies.
Sophie seed to be too preoccupied with her own thoughts.
She had just wanted to stay for dinner with Christopher, but he couldn’t wait to drive her away.
Sophie’s mood was getting worse.
"Doctor Valen?" Seeing her in a daze, Quentin called out.
Only then did Sophie co back to her senses and look over. "Mr. Vincent, please order the dishes. I am OK with whatever you want."
"Then, I’ll order it."
Sophie nodded but turned her gaze in Christopher’s direction.
When she chose the seat just now, she deliberately chose a place where she could see his table.
At this ti, when she looked over, she found that Christopher was gone. Only Janice and another woman was sitting there.
Sophie stared in that direction and couldn’t help sneering.
Thinking of this, Sophie fiercely clenched her fists.
After a while, Christopher had not co back yet. Janice couldn’t help glancing at the stairs. "Where have the two been for smoking? Why haven’t they co back for so long?"
Yvonne answered, "It’s normal for n."
"I’ll go take a look," Janice said.
When she stood up and was about to go downstairs, Sophie ca over.
"Janice? What a coincidence!"
When Janie saw Sophie, she rembered the figure she had just seen, which turned out to be Sophie.
She said, "What a coincidence. Are you here to eat roast at as well?"
Sophie nodded. "I ca with Mr. Vincent. We were just talking about you."
"Really?"
"Do you want to share a table with us?" Sophie suggested.
"We’d better not. We still have two people," said Janice.
Of course Sophie knew who the two people were. Her eyes subconsciously fell on the door.
Through the windows, she could see them smoking at the door.
Sophie looked away and narrowed her eyes, saying, "Therefore, I won’t insist. Well, do you want to go over and say hello to Mr. Vincent?" As she spoke, she turned to look at her table.
Janice followed her gaze and saw Quentin Vincent waving his hand. She did not think they were very familiar so she was about to reject her. At this ti, she saw Christopher and Jas coming up from downstairs.
She said, "Maybe another day."
Sophie didn’t really want her to say hello. She just wanted to stall for ti. Then she saw Christopher and Jas coming over.
