Chapter 597

Cheryl was just about to chase after Daphne when Jack’s voice came from behind her. “Cheryl, over here!”

Unfortunately, Cheryl could only turn around and walk over to Jack.

When she got close, Jack finally took a good look at Cheryl’s appearance. When he did, his eyes lit 1. up. “You look so beautiful today.”

Unable to take the compliment, Cheryl felt her face steam. “Have you been waiting long?” she asked.

“No. I just got us a private room.”

Jack walked forward. “Come on, I’ll take you there.”

When she found out that Jack had gotten them a private room, Cheryl’s face turned even redder. She ducked her head and followed behind him.

The corridor felt like it stretched on for ages.

Cheryl thought about how she had seen Daphne outside. It was the best topic to use to break this silence between them.

“When I came in, I saw Daphne.”

Jack paused in his steps. “You’re sure you’re not mistaken?”

“Yeah. I bumped into her accidentally. Also, there was a man next to her. I wonder if he’s the president of SY Group that everyone talks about.”

“That’s not possible!” Jack denied it immediatly.

It was only after he did that he realized how strange he sounded. He quickly waved a hand and explained, “What I mean is that the president of SY Group must be so busy. How could he show up here? He… should be overseas, right?”

Cheryl stroked her chin. “I don’t think that man was the president of SY Group, either. He doesn’t have the bearing for it.”

Although she had only taken a glance, Cheryl could remember what he looked like. The guy had Thinking about it now, Cheryl felt a wave of disgust.

Seeing that Cheryl wasn’t getting suspicious, Jack let out a long breath.

Having reached the private room, Jack said, “Go in and wait a bit first. I’m going out to wait for another friend.”

Then, he turned to leave.

Cheryl asked nervously, “You have another friend coming?”

“Yes, a very good friend. He’s like my brother. Don’t worry, he’s very nice to hang out with.”

Cheryl hung her head, her face burning so hotly that it could cook an egg.

“Then hurry back,” she said.

Cheryl really hadn’t expected that they would proceed so fast that she was already going to meet Jack’s friends.

Jack was so oblivious most of the time. She had never assumed that he would be more excited than her.

She couldn’t help but smile.

She wondered how he would introduce her later As Cheryl’s imagination went wild, the door of the private room was pushed open. A man even more built than Jack stood in the doorway.

“You are…”

“This is my friend,” Jack said as he squeezed through the seam of the door.

When Cheryl stood next to Jack, he always seemed very solid and sturdy. Next to his friend, he suddenly seemed petite.

“Antonio,” Jack introduced as he looked up at his friend.

Cheryl finally managed to calm herself down after the initial shock of seeing the man. She smiled at Antonio and said, “Hello.”

At the same time, she found out just how tiring it was to talk to someone so tall. She couldn’t help “Antonio used to be a boxer like me, but he retired a few years ago…” Jack started to ramble about Antonio to Cheryl after had ordered their food.

However, Cheryl wasn’t interested in any of it at all. She would much rather listen to Jack’s own stories.

But since Jack was so excited, she just couldn’t bear to cut him off. She patiently listened to the whole spiel.

When she finally managed to get to the end of Jack’s tale, she was going to ask him to talk about himself when Jack said, “Cheryl, why don’t you talk about yourself?”

Cheryl replied, “But don’t you already know everything?”
