Liam's words were mainly spoken to tease Hanson.
"Let's just go back to what we were like before and forget about the unhappy past."
He even took up the job of a peacemaker to persuade Thomas and Vania.
Seeing that no one answered him, Liam looked at Vania and inquired, "Vanie, what do you think?"
Vania certainly knew what he meant. The interests of their families were inter-connected, so it was impossible for them to be enemies all the time.
She then nodded with a smile. "Liam is right. Let's have dinner together."
Since Vania agreed to it, Hanson couldn't just leave by himself, could he? After all, he was even more worried about letting his wife eat with them alone.
"Sure." When Hanson spoke, there was a hint of reluctance in his tone.
"That's more like it." Liam looked at the prideful Hanson as the smile on his face bloomed.
After Bryan removed his makeup, he immediately went to look for them and dragged Jennifer along with one hand. "Let's have dinner together."
Having dragged against her will, Jennifer immediately patted him with her other hand and scolded, "Let go. Who said you could hold my hand?"
Why were they holding hands like that?
"Ouch! Why would you slap me?" Bryan shook his hand, expressing his pain.
"Stop pretending. I didn't even hit that hard."
Jennifer was speaking the truth. She didn't hit him hard and all she wanted to do was just scare him.
Nevertheless, Bryan didn't want to argue with her, so he explained, "Uncle Liam came today. Let's go and meet them."
Without waiting for Jennifer's reply, he pulled her by the wrist again, as if dragging Jennifer forward.
Jennifer was a little embarrassed to be dragged around by a man in front of everyone's eyes.
Especially since there were young actors present who looked at them strangely, obviously misunderstanding them.
Jennifer struggled out of Bryan's grip and kept a distance after separating from him.
At this moment, Bryan had yet to notice her abnormality. With a smile on his face, he uttered, "Uncle Liam is a nice person. I'll introduce him to you later."
Although Bryan and Liam often bickered in private, the former would still boast about his uncle to outsiders.
Jennifer didn't know what he meant by introducing him to her, but at this time, she had already walked up to Liam and the others.
Subconsciously, she walked to Vania's side, and Bryan followed suit, naturally standing beside her.
At that moment, even Bryan did not notice what he did.
"Hi, Uncle Liam. Hi, Thomas," Bryan greeted happily.
He didn't feel awkward at all.
Nonetheless, Liam and the others had witnessed his and Jennifer's interactions earlier, so they turned their meaningful gaze to the two youngsters.
"You must be the popular actress, Jennifer, right?" Liam took the initiative to greet Jennifer. "Hello, I'm Bryan's uncle."
The smile in his speech was so obvious that Jennifer could not comprehend it, so she greeted him bashfully, "Hello, I'm Jennifer Watson."
Liam nodded, scanned her, and then patted Bryan on the shoulder with a smile. "I think Old Mr. Jones will be relieved when he sees your current state."
"Of course." Bryan sounded confident. He then pulled Jennifer to his side and urged, "I'm hungry. Let's go and eat already."
Just then, Jennifer shifted her position shyly and said apologetically, "I have something to do right now. So, I'll have to take my leave."
She then turned to Vania and uttered, "I'll be leaving first, Director Greyson."
She was not familiar with these people, and it was very awkward for her to stay there. Moreover, Liam's meaningful gaze earlier made her uncomfortable.
