Hope It's Not Too Late to Love novel Chapter 550

Chapter 554

"I'll have to stick around and see then." While speaking, Liam's eyes glanced surreptitiously at Vania once more.

It did not escape Hanson's attention. He knew that Liam shared the same taste as him. Though he did not know what Liam's gazes meant, he was still displeased by the scrutiny in them.

"You're going to feel like you're drowning if you sit through all his flamboyant expressions of love today," April replied with a laugh.

"Oh? Is it that serious?" Liam pretended to feel taken aback. "I'll just have to experience it for myself today, I guess."

"Hahaha."

The others began to laugh as well, and the subject came to a close.

"Don't just stand around and chatter. Hurry up and take a seat. We were just studying the menu earlier when you two came in. Let's take a look at the menu again now."

Yvonne changed the subject. She did not want the conversation to fixate on Vania and Hanson all the time.

She did not want to hear a single word about them being all lovey-dovey together.

"Let's do that." Everyone took their seats and began to go through the menu. It was time to grab a bite to eat.

However, as soon as they sat around the table, Liam took the menu and looked over at Vania. "What kind of food do you like to eat?"

Vania did not expect that Liam's first words after taking a seat would be directed to her. After a brief flash of surprise, she answered truthfully, "I like spicy food."

Liam nodded and said to the server, "We'll have a chili con carne."

His older sister loved spicy food too.

Meanwhile, everyone present was stunned. They heard the exchange and it was too obvious to ignore.

They stared at Liam in bewilderment as they did not know what his motives were.

Liam noticed that everyone was looking at him. Hanson's eyes were especially cold.

He smiled and explained, "I'm just being hospitable to my buddy's wife."

Hanson's eyes narrowed as he pondered the veracity of Liam's words.

Just then, Thomas piped up, "You're right. I should order something as well as my way of welcoming her into the group." He turned to Vania and asked, "What do you like to eat?"

Vania was already familiar with Thomas. She chuckled and said, "I've already prepared my gift for you, and I'm the one who should be welcoming you instead."

"Oh, I know about this too. Thomas lost and Vania's the boss' wife now!" April exclaimed happily.

Thomas was about to protest when Vania added, "You're a man of your word, are you not? Or are you going to brush it off as a joke like a coward?"

"It's not shameful to admit that my husband's the boss." Vania cuddled up against Hanson.

They were being lovey-dovey again.

"If it weren't for the bet, I'd have to take some time considering whether I'd accept you as my subordinate, you know," Hanson huffed proudly.

From his words, the others could tell that he was scoffing at Thomas.

Vania laughed and said, "It's not embarrassing, so you should just accept it."

There were tons of people in their social circle who would love to call Hanson their boss.

Thomas shook his head and chuckled helplessly. "I can't win against you two."

He was outnumbered two to one, so he could only accept his fate.

Liam did not expect that they had such an amusing story to tell. He laughed heartily as well and said, "So it seems like your tussle over who's the boss between you two has finally come to an end, huh?"

"Unfortunately, yes." Thomas nodded helplessly. After several years of contending over the title, Hanson won in the end.

Thomas turned to Vania and huffed, "Since you're the boss' wife now, remember to give me an allowance too. I might even get to bring a wife of my own back to meet you two next time."
