Chapter 330
From the side, Mrs. Lowe Sr. was watching the young pair across the table with growing fondness. The more she looked, the more she liked what she
She leaned toward Mandy and whispered, “Miss Riley a
and Scott make such a lovely couple. Do you know if she has a boyfriend?”
Mandy smiled. “Don’t worry, Morn–already chocloid–she’s single.”
Mrs. Lowe Sr.’s face lit up instantly, her smile so wide it almost couldn’t be contained. “That’s wonderful. Just wonderful.”
Mr. Low Sr., now eighty–three, was still remarkably healthy and sharp Cheerful and full of energy, he slid the menu across to Charlotte with a warm grin. “Miss Riley, please–order whatever you like.”
As the guest, Charlotte didn’t decline. She took the menu with ease and smiled. “Then I won’t hold back.”
The restaurant specialized in Japanese cuisine. Charlotte scanned the menu and chose a few dishes–light, fresh, and reasonably priced–ones that both elders and children could enjoy
After placing her order, Charlotte handed the menu back to the elderly gentleman with a warm smile “Mr. Lowe Sr., I’m done. Please take a look.” Her warm sme made him light up. He looked at Charlotte as if she were already his granddaughter–in–law.
“Wright, alright,” he said cheerfully, taking the menu with a broad smile.
Across the table, Tim observed everything with a calm and unreadable expression. Aside from thanking Charlotte earlier, he hadn’t said another word He knew Sean Jasper.
His company had an ongoing partnership with the Jasper Corporation: He had even attended Sean’s engagement party the year before. The invitation had been addressed to both him and Mandy, but she had been overseas on a business trip at the time and wasn’t able to attend
Which meant Mandy still didn’t know that Charlotte had once been engaged to Sean.
When Tim first saw Charlotte that evening, he had been genuinely caught off guard. But he was good at keeping his emotions in check. Even if something surprised him, it never showed on his face.
He could see that the Lowe family–especially his wife–was clearly hoping to set Scott up with Charlotte
But Charlotte and Sean that wasn’t something he could ignore
Timm made a mental note to speak with Mandy after dinner and explain Charlotte’s past with Sean.
The meal itself was pleasant enough. Scott and Charlotte talked about some of the more complex cases the firm had recently taken on.
After dinner, the group left the private room chatting and laughing.
Scon nodded. “Alright then.”
