Chapter 94

Jesse suppressed his restlessness and spoke in a cold tone, “I’m going to change my clothes.”

But his voice was clearly tense.

“Okay, I’ll wait for you.”

After a while, Jesse changed his clothes. He wore something simple, a shirt and a suit, but this simplicity was not simple on him.

Even though he was sitting in a wheelchair, he still exuded an air of cold elegance that was not to be violated.

His sharp contours were accentuated by the suit, making him appear even more serious and aloof, difficult to approach. However, his delicate and refined features made people blush and their hearts skip a beat.

“Let’s go.”

The two of them walked out as if nothing had happened yesterday.

In this regard, the two of them were surprisingly tacit, to the point where both of them had knots in their hearts but did not show it.

They arrived at the restaurant Willette had booked.

When she saw the two of them walking over together, Willette was stunned. Even though she did not want to admit it, at this moment, the two of them standing together as a pair exuded a cold and clear temperament. But when Nydia smiled, she added a touch of sweetness, instantly making her come alive. Jesse, sitting in his wheelchair, was no less impressive.

“Come sit down. I’ve already ordered a few dishes. Take a look and see if there’s anything you want to eat.” The waiter removed the original chair and gave Jesse’s wheelchair the place, and when she looked at Jesse, she blushed discreetly.

“Mr. Pascall, let me explain the reason for inviting you to dinner first. Yesterday, there was a misunderstanding that caused unpleasantness. The more I think about it, the more self-blame I feel. I’m really sorry. Nydia, can you forgive me?”

“Sister, it’s already in the past. I’m not that petty of a person.” Nydia comforted Willette by patting her hand.

“When you say that, I feel even more ashamed. I admit… I had a thorn in my heart for you because of what happened between you and Mr. Pascall in the past. After all, he was my fiance, but now he’s…” When she said this, she gave Jesse a resentful glance, her eyes full of tenderness, seeming both angry and shy.

“I can’t believe I brought this up again, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I deserve a punishment.” Willette raised her glass. “I’ll punish myself with a drink.”

After speaking, she raised her head and downed a glass of wine, but she drank too quickly, and some wine flowed out of the corner of her mouth. She even choked a bit, and her cheeks and neck were tinged with a light red.

Nydia subconsciously looked at Jesse, but saw that his eyes were clear and he had no reaction. She even paid attention to Jesse’s Adam’s apple, which didn’t move, so it seemed like he really didn’t care.

She knew why Willette had invited Jesse today, she was trying to flirt with him in front of her.

“Sister, are you blaming us for suddenly bringing up this matter? Didn’t you say that Jesse…”

Willette interrupted her, afraid that she would say something further.

“No, I’m not blaming you. I’m just… sad.”

“Did you and Barclay have a disagreement?”

“He’s been getting more and more distant from me lately, Nydia. Do you think he’s cheating on me?” She grabbed Nydia like a life-saving straw and looked towards Jesse with her eyes, “If he is cheating on me, what should I do?”

Nydia hadn’t answered yet, but she heard Jesse’s indifferent voice, “Then cancel the engagement.”

Both of them were stunned and looked at him in surprise.

Nydia: Is he acting again?

But Willette’s face flashed with joy. Jesse asked her to cancel the engagement, which meant she would be single again. Did he want to be with her?

“But our families are involved in a lot of things, and our companies have close business dealings. If we cancel the engagement, there may be significant losses.”

“Not necessarily, as long as we help you.”

“…” Jesse, you’re going too far!

Willette could no longer conceal the joy on her face.

“Really?” He does care about me after all. He only married Nydia because he had no choice, Willette thought to herself.
