After Divorce She Becomes the Billionaire Heiress (Sylvia and Cyril) novel Chapter 237

The hospital was just an excuse. In reality, he didn't want to go to a place like that with Duncan to eat. He felt that their relationship wasn't suitable for dining out in public.

Duncan was just testing the waters, and seeing that the female lead wasn't interested, he dropped it. So he suggested another restaurant, which was quite nice. This time, the female lead didn't refuse the idea of going to the restaurant with him.

As they stepped into the restaurant, they saw Miles and his son walking in as well. It seemed like they also planned to dine there today.

Just when they finally got rid of one rival, another one popped up. Duncan's first thought was to quickly leave and find another restaurant, but it was already too late.

Miles' son, Jimmy, was excited to see the female lead. He ran over to greet her, and she seemed to like him too, with a particularly gentle smile on her face.

"Auntie, our luck is so good! I was just telling Dad that I wanted to eat here today. Dad said it might be crowded, but we unexpectedly ran into you. Shall we eat together?"

Though Jimmy was young, he could see through the complicated dynamics between adults, especially the person beside the female lead, who clearly liked her. So he wanted to help his dad.

Miles didn't say anything, just lightly patted Jimmy's head, seemingly reproaching him, but in reality, he didn't say anything and tacitly agreed with what Jimmy said.

The female lead felt a bit awkward. She had only come to eat with Duncan, and now suddenly Miles and his son appeared. She instinctively wanted to refuse.

Because she had a feeling that if they all sat together, the meal would be particularly awkward today. So, for the sake of everyone, it was better not to eat together.

"Today won't work. I'm treating someone to dinner, so let's reschedule and eat together another time, just the two of us. How about that?"

Although she couldn't successfully eat with the female lead, she did manage to get her to agree to another time.

Feeling a bit happier, he nodded and glanced at Duncan discreetly, noticing that Duncan's expression wasn't too good. But his own dad looked fine, wearing a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes.
