Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1354 The Fretful Scene in the Private Room

Sounds of cheerful laughter and even teasing directed at Nicole could be heard coming from the private room next door from time to time.

On the other hand, Colton was sitting in a private room nearby, his face gloomy as he ate his meal. Had Wendy not wanted to dine here, he would've slammed his fork and spoon on the dining table and stormed off long ago.

Wendy ate her meal in silence, not daring to say a word. After all, she knew Colton's temper pretty well. I'd better behave well today and head straight back to the hotel after dinner without making any other demands.

She had thought that it would be a pleasure to meet Nicole here, but she didn't expect there would be another man nearby. She knew a little bit about the man. When she was with Nicole before, Nicole had mentioned her medical base, which was supposed to be a collaboration with this man. How could there be such a coincidence?

Suddenly, Colton looked up at her with a dark expression. He asked coldly, "When did you find out that she was around here?"

Wendy's hands paused for a moment. Hearing his question, she put her fork and spoon down on the table and looked up gingerly at his expression before taking in a sharp breath. "Uh, I just found out today. I didn't expect my sister-in-law to be around here. It was quite a coincidence! Haha!" she replied with an awkward laugh before picking up her fork and spoon and continuing to eat in silence with her head down. Who would dare to tell the truth with that kind of expression? It's better to just brush him off with a random excuse. If he finds out about the real situation, I'll definitely get lectured today!

"Who is that guy?" asked Colton as if he hadn't understood what she just said.

Wendy closed her eyes in resignation. Oh, God, please don't do this to me. How am I supposed to answer that? Even though I know that he's Nicole's business partner, I can't just blurt it out, right? "I don't know," she replied in a muffled voice. I'm not going to spill the beans. I've got to maintain my good friendship with Nicole.

"Is the food delicious?"

"Yeah."

"Does the red wine taste good?"

"Yeah."

"Is that guy her business partner?"

"Yeah," blurted Wendy. As soon as she said that, she quickly covered her mouth with her innocent eyes wide open. What did I just say? Did I just blurt out the truth? She glared at him angrily. This guy is treacherous, changing the subject to distract me and then suddenly extracting the real answer from me! What a schemer! "Why you!"
