Alicia's gaze towards Elianna immediately turned hostile. "What do you mean?”
Sophia, afraid that Alicia would misunderstand, quickly explained
She said, “Elianna should thank Jeff and I should thank him too."
Cheekily, she gestured to Jefferson, "Thank you, God of Wealth, for spreading your wealth.”
Elianna followed suit, "Thank you, Mr. Larsen.”
A storm was extinguished in its cradle, but Elianna couldn't relax at all.
Because Alicia's gaze was fixed on her, as if scrutinizing whether there was any relationship between her and Jefferson. In order to dispel Alicia's doubts, Elianna pretended to be calm as she picked up her glass and took a sip of water.
“Asher likes me to look more natural, so I usually don't wear these clothes. If it weren't for Sophia's strong recommendation, I wouldn't dare to wear them either.”
Sophia laughed and replied, "Don't worry about him. Just be as beautiful as you want.”
Elianna lowered her head and smiled shyly, "I like listening to him."
"Ah, such a loving couple.”
This display of affection worked indeed, as Alicia withdrew his gaze, with a vaguely disdainful expression
Apparently, he thought that Elianna could only listen to men and was extremely boring. Jefferson wouldn't care about such a woman at all. Having resolved Alicia's crisis, Elianna secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Just as she was about to take a sip of water, her leg under the table was touched.
She froze for a few seconds, trying her best to pretend as if nothing had happened, casually looking outside. Her gaze brushed past Jefferson and she glared at him fiercely.
Jefferson smirked and typed a few words on his phone.
With a tap of his finger, Elianna’s phone in her bag vibrated.
Afraid of being caught off guard, she didn't dare to look.
It was Sophia who reminded her, “Elianna, your phone is ringing.”
"Oh? Really?”
Elianna feigned ignorance, took out her phone from her bag, and pretended to open it with a faint smile. "It's Asher, asking when I'll go back." This led to a few jokes, but at least she managed to deceive them
Just as the waiter brought the dishes, while they were busy eating, Elianna dared to look at the message. [I like it when you're not wearing anything.]
Her ears turned red in an instant.
Afraid that Jefferson would come up with some new tricks, she calmly replied.
[Not wearing anything only for Mr. Larsen.]
Seeing these words, Jefferson bit his cheek and downed his glass of wine in one gulp.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
The crimson liquid flowed into his thin lips and the are of his Adam's apple rolling made Elianna involuntarily avert her gaze. Having finished his wine, Jefferson didn't touch his chapsticks any more. He held a cigarette to his lips.
Seeing that he had only taken a few bites and stopped, Sophia wondered, "Jeff, what's wrong? Is this dish not to your taste?” Taking a deep drag of his cigarette, he said, "This dish is too nourishing. It gives me heartburn.”
When he mentioned heartburn, Jefferson glanced meaningfully at Elianna.
Pretending not to know, Elianna enjoyed her food.
In her heart, she silently retorted, who asked you to have a hot temper? Blame yourself.
When they finished eating, they casually chatted. Wherever Sophia was, it never felt dull. Aftertalking about afew interesting things abroad, Elianna looked at Alicia, who had alsoeaten very little. .to -
‘By the way;Alicia, didn't you say ~ that Mr. Gibson is coming to I< Oakpool? We should extend our warmest welcome when the.time comes." ” -
*Dinge" Elianna dropped her chopsticks on the floor.
Seeing everyone looking at her, she suppressed her panic and smiled apologetically. "Sorry, I didn't hold them properly."
Sophia handed her a tissue N considerately and smiled, "I oftens drop-my chopsticks while eating. Just ask the waiter for another pair."
As the chopsticks were returned, Elianna lost her appetite.
She lowered her head and toyed with the food in her bowl, listening to them talk about the Gibson family.
"It's not confirmed yet, but if David comes, he must meet Mr. Larsen.”
Alicia looked at Jefferson, waiting for his reaction.
Seeing Jefferson remaining silent, Sophia jokingly said, "Of course he will. Jeff almost became the brother-in-law of Mr. Gibson.” The air grew silent.
Sophia realized that it was inappropriate. With the early passing of Mia, it wasn't the right time to bring that up.
She quickly apologized, "Sorry, Jeff. I didn't mean any disrespect.”
