Sean was stunned for a moment. She was putting on a ladylike act?
"Old Mrs. Graham obviously prefers gentle people, so I put on an act just to meet you. Whether we're compatible or not is not something that can be judged by elders at a glance. We have to spend time together to truly understand each other!" Irene blurted out in one breath.
Sean nodded. "You're right. I may be a bit reserved. Perhaps I should be more talkative."
Irene felt relieved upon hearing that.
"My manners may not be the best. I hope you can be patient with me," Irene commented.
Sean simply made a sound of agreement.
During the meal, Lina kindly inquired while having someone serve her food, "What's your favorite food?"
"I enjoy a wide variety of foods. I'm not fussy," Irene shyly replied to Lina.
She maintained a smile in front of Lina at all times.
After finishing his meal, Sean raised his hand to check the time. "It's getting late. I need to head back to the company."
"Irene, he's busy with work, so don't take it personally. I will keep you company for the meal." Lina was much kinder to Irene than she was to Abigail back then.
"Okay." Irene smiled and agreed.
"If you're done eating, I'll give you a ride." Sean leaned back in his chair, his expression gentle.
Irene was full, but Lina had served her too much food, and she didn't want to appear wasteful. She didn't want Lina to think she was being wasteful and end up returning it.
"Finish your meal, and then we can go. There's no need to worry. Oh, you can't finish all that, can you? Sorry for giving you so much." Lina offered her an out.
"I can't eat all of this. I'm sorry." Irene apologized uncomfortably.
"No need to apologize. We're practically family now." Lina smiled, clearly pleased.
Sean looked at Irene, unsure if she was being sincere.
After leaving the Grahams, Sean got into the car, and once Irene fastened her seatbelt, he politely asked, "Where to go?"
"I work as a designer at Allure. Just drop me off there." Irene felt much more relaxed.
There was no need to pretend anymore.
Sean's hand hesitated for a moment but quickly resumed its usual position.
When they arrived at Allure, Irene sat next to Sean, nervously asking, "Can I have your contact information?"
"Just scan the code." Sean took out his phone.
Irene immediately took out her phone and showed Sean her WhatsApp QR code.
After Sean added her as a friend, she got out of the car contentedly, waving at him. "Mr. Graham, I had a wonderful time at lunch today. How about dinner tonight?"
"Sure, that sounds great." Sean nodded.
Blind dates were just like this.
Grandma appears to have taken a liking to her as she's a fashion designer... After all, Abigail was also in the same line of work.
