Son-In-Law Gets an Upgrade

Chapter 25

Chapter 25 Old Friend

“Mr. Jefferson, let’s have lunch together,” Jessica extended an invitation during lunch hours.

After cleaning for an entire morning, Jessica knew that Alex was trying to make life difficult for her.

Hence, she wanted to invite him for lunch to mend their relationship.

“No.” Alex refused her directly.

“I’ll be heading for lunch myself, then,” Jessica replied awkwardly.

“Alright,” Alex acknowledged without even looking up.

After Jessica left, he ordered takeout.

He just took over the company, and there were a lot of matters he had to take care of. Hence, Alex did not want to waste time leaving the office for lunch.

He had a habit of finishing the task at hand before moving on to anything else.

Half an hour later, the takeout had arrived. Alex allowed the deliveryman to enter when he heard the knocking.

“A–Alex?” the deliveryman stared at Alex in shock.

Alex looked up and exclaimed with surprise, “Dylan?”

He had not expected his deliveryman to be his university classmate, Dylan.

“Oh my gosh, Alex, I thought you were a live–in son–in–law? You’re the chairman here!” Dylan exclaimed in shock.

“Well, that’s life. You’ll never know when the smallest things might change your life, Haha.” Alex was happy to see his old friend as well.

Back when he was in university, he once invited Heather and her friend to have a meal at a restaurant only to realize that he had forgotten to bring money. If Dylan had not lent him the money back then, he would have been embarrassed.

Now that I think about it, I haven’t returned him the money yet.

“That’s right. Life really is full of ups and downs.”
