Encore of the Avenging Muse (Sylvia and Rupert) novel Chapter 697

Naomi obviously didn't take it to heart, feeling that it was just her own private savings and had absolutely nothing to do with the Garcia family.

If it kept making money, she would hand it over to Edwin Garcia to manage.

If it lost money, she didn't want to bother Edwin with such trivial matters.

Sylvia still felt uneasy. After all, this Jillian hadn't been back to Kingstoria for years, usually just sending mass holiday greetings to Naomi.

Why would she introduce such a massive project to Naomi?

The main issue was that Sylvia racked her brains and couldn't recall hearing any news about a major project around this time in her previous life.

Just as she was about to ask more questions, Lester Sanford called.

"Sylvia, I booked an appointment to check out the restaurant at noon. I'm already at your building, you can come down now."

"Okay, but my mom is here, want her to tag along?"

Seeing the hopeful look in Naomi's eyes, Sylvia still asked.

To her, Naomi was like Nora Rayner to Sienna.

They were each other's lifelines.

Except, although Naomi was timid, she wasn't like Nora, who would betray and use her daughter.

On the contrary, Naomi only ever gave her an abundance of love.

Lester chuckled, "Sylvia, how could you say that? Would I dare offend my future mother-in-law?"

"Stop joking around."

Sylvia felt a bit embarrassed and quickly hung up.

A few minutes later, she and Naomi got into Lester's car and headed to the restaurant together.

When they got out of the car, Lester was as gentlemanly as ever, reaching out to help her.

He glanced at her bare finger, "Why aren't you wearing the ring?"

Sylvia said helplessly, "It seems a bit big. Even though it's my size, it almost slipped off the day before yesterday, so I had to put it away for now."

Lester paused, a profound look in his eyes.

"I'll have it resized tomorrow."

"Yeah."

Walking into the restaurant, the manager greeted them.

It was a very cozy small dining room, set up with two small tables, and Sylvia was very satisfied.

The manager continued, "We've prepared a tasting menu in the private room next door."
