Ex-husband’s Regret (Ryan and Charlotte) novel Chapter 291

Chapter 291 

Meanwhile, a force was pulling the door from the inside just as I was about to peek in. A waiter blocked my view. 

This place pays great attention to guest privacy. 

The waiter said, “Hello, are you a friend of Mr. Wilde?” 

The name was unfamiliar to me. 

I had no choice but to shake my head. “No, I must have gone to the wrong room.” 

As I turned to leave, it felt like someone was staring at me intensely, making me feel uneasy. 

When I glanced back, the door to the private room was already closed tightly. 

Back in the room, Jane had already ordered the food. “Take a look, is there anything you want to eat?” 

“I’m not picky. Just order what you want.” 

Thinking about what happened earlier, I was somewhat preoccupied. 

It wasn’t someone I knew, but what they talked about sounded very much like something that happened 

to me. 

It almost felt like a perfect fit. 

But I had never heard of someone called Mr. Wilde being close to Ryan. 

Jane noticed something was off and leaned close to my ear. “What are you thinking about?” 

“Nothing.” I smiled gently. 

Now wasn’t the time to discuss these matters. 

Fortunately, the atmosphere in the private room was lively and harmonious, and it soon helped me shake off my complicated thoughts. 

Austin Joseph, who was our designer, stood up and raised his glass to me and Jane. Shyly, he said, “Ms. Wilson, Miss Greenwood, I’m very happy to join the Charlotte Jewelry. Thank you, thank you for willing to hire me!” 

Among the new employees, he was the eldest. 

He had graduated nearly ten years ago and had achieved little. It wasn’t because he lacked ability but because he preferred to follow his own aesthetic rather than cater to the market. 

Naturally, the company wasn’t willing to gamble on a newcomer designer without a track record. 

As a result, his works had never been successfully launched, and finding a job became increasingly difficult. 

But when I saw the portfolio attached to his resume that day, I was impressed. It was a bit of a gamble, but I decided to give him a chance. 

I raised my glass. “You’re too kind. Everyone here got in based on their own abilities, the Charlotte

Jewelry is also honored to be chosen by you.” 

“Exactly.” 

Jane also raised her glass and clinked it with mine. “Sit down quick. Tonight, everyone can eat, drink, and have a good time.” 

Her words immediately set them all at ease, and one by one, they came toasting to us. 

After I had had a couple of drinks, Jack, who was sitting beside me, smiled and raised his glass, speaking gently and gracefully: 

“Ms. Wilson can’t handle much alcohol, so I’ll drink the rest for her.” 

“Wow!” Jane led the cheers. 

Megan also clapped and cheered, “Mr. Renolds, you’re so manly!” 

I wanted to refuse, but Jack disagreed. “You know your own tolerance, don’t you? Besides, you’ve been busy lately. If you drink too much, how will you manage work tomorrow?”
