Chapter 387 Insincere

Caroline had no idea that Evan and Reuben saw her.

Reuben was stunned. “That person looks like Ms. Shenton, sir.” Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Evan’s gaze dimmed.

“Isn’t she in the hospital? Why is she here? Can she drink?” Reuben questioned.

Evan frowned and looked at Reuben in displeasure. “Why don’t you ask her yourself if you want to know so badly?”

Reuben realized he had spoken out of turn, so he hastily looked away. I’m sorry, sir.”

Evan walked into the private room opposite Caroline’s.

Meanwhile, in Room 303.

Caroline and Jayden sat down after shaking hands.

Caroline said, “Mr. Curry, I brought you the liquor you like.”

Caroline placed the bottle on the table and beckoned the waiter to open it.

Jayden’s eyes lit up. “You are generous indeed. I can’t afford this drink on normal days.”

Caroline said smilingly, “You’re so good at joking, Mr. Curry. I heard from your wife you have a collection of good liquors at home.”

Jayden’s smile faded as soon as his wife was mentioned. “Ms. Shenton, a homely woman like her doesn’t understand things like this!”

Caroline smiled and stood up to pour the drink for Jayden after the waiter was done opening the

bottle.

“I spoke inappropriately earlier, and I hope I didn’t dampen your enthusiasm, Mr. Curry.”

Caroline did it on purpose because Jayden was known in Angelbay for being a rascal. She wanted to remind Jayden she had his wife’s number so he would not act inappropriately.

Noticing that Caroline had a good attitude and poured him drinks, Jayden smiled and said, “Ms. Shenton, I can’t be angry at you for such a trivial matter.”

As he was speaking, he placed his chubby hand on her hand and said, “Right?”

Caroline’s body turned stiff, and she pulled back her hand to pour herself a drink. “You’re right,

Caroline raised her glass at Jayden. “Mr. Curry, thank you for taking the time to meet me tonight. I shall toast the drink to you.”

She tipped the glass and finished the drink.

Jayden smiled wider. “You’re a good drinker, Ms. Shenton. I shall finish my drink, too!”

In Room 306.

Evan sat and listened to a group of business owners engaging in small talk around him, but his attention remained fixed on the room across from him. The closed door prevented him from seeing inside except when waiters entered to serve dishes.

A waiter opened the door to deliver a dish by chance, revealing Jayden and Caroline inside. They were sharing drinks and exchanging suggestive smiles.

Evan’s expression turned cold as he asked inwardly. Is she trying to strike a deal with that notorious womanizer even before she has fully recovered?‘

The private room’s door closed slowly, and Evan received a drink.

One of the men at his table raised his glass, saying, “Here’s to you, Mr. Jordan, for bringing me on board for the new project.”

Evan raised his glass and nodded in acknowledgment

The man seemed somewhat uncomfortable, nervously touching his nose before moving on to

converse with someone else.

Evan’s eyes once again drifted toward the room opposite.

After a few drinks and noticing Jayden’s improved mood, Caroline said, “Mr. Curry, I’d like to discuss a potential collaboration with our clothing factory.”

Jayden chuckled. “Ms. Shenton, discussing business after just a few drinks? That’s not very subtle of you.”

Caroline concealed her emotions and replied, “Mr. Curry, we can talk business while enjoying our drinks.”

Jayden set down his glass and casually draped his arm over Caroline’s shoulder, causing her face. to contort in pain from her shoulder injury.
