My Dreamy Old Husband

Chapter 697

As they talked on their way to the booth, Sam said, “After that, I bought this place where she used to work at and expanded it to what it is today while keeping its original name, hoping that she would see it one day and drop by for a bit.”

Sadly, that person will never show up. Sophia felt heavy-hearted but also grateful that, apart from Cooper, there was someone else in this world who remembered Annabel.

To mask her low spirits, she joked, “That doesn’t seem very likely. She might not be able to afford this high-end restaurant!”

They laughed and eventually returned to their booth to eat.

That meal was a burden to everyone. Stanley couldn’t help but feel like Sam had an ulterior motive. First, he comes to our company and invests in us, then he even treats us to an expensive meal. There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world!

As expected, when everyone was close to finishing their food, Sam revealed his true intentions. “Sophia, it’s going to be New Year’s soon and I’m getting ready to go on a trip. I usually live alone so there isn’t anyone to look after Corrado while I’m away. I was wondering if you could help me look after him for a while.”

Once he said that, everyone showed mixed reactions.

Sarah’s eyes lit up. Another dog to play with!

Sean frowned. He’s hiding something!

Stanley’s eyebrows shot up. That was it!

 

Back then, Stanley also treated Sophia to a meal before asking her to look after Judge for him. He took the opportunity to bring it up once she was done eating so she did not have a choice. After that, Judge began living under Sophia’s care at no cost. She could not get out of it even if she wanted to!

Who knew Sam would use the same tactic?

 

But Sam was such a big businessman; where wouldn’t he be allowed to have a dog? Was there even a lack of people to look after his dog?
