Chapter 290 Young and Stunning
They selected a restaurant with high ratings. It was in a shopping mall not far from the hospital. The night fell, and it was dinnertime.
There were quite a few customers. The warm yellow light created a good ambiance. A figurine was placed on the table for them to order
dishes.
Hailey asked Jeremy what he would like to eat. Jeremy poured a glass of water for her and replied, “I’m fine with anything. Just order it for
me:
Regarding the appetite of an athlete, Hailey ordered roast chicken, sausages, macaroni, and fried fish. A bottle of wine was also
included.
“Anything else you want to have?” Hailey asked.
Jeremy smiled, “I don’t eat much for dinner. We’ll order more if it’s not enough.”
Hailey handed the menu to the waiter. “We’ll have these dishes.”
The food was soon served. Hailey poured a bowl of soup and picked up a chunk of chicken for him. “You’re so thin and need
nourishment.”
“You need it too.” Jeremy’s smile was broad, and his pretty face was pleasant to the eye. They chatted while eating.
“How is Dorian doing?” Hailey was too busy to care about the business of Southern Star Entertainment. She had just talked about it with
Randal not long ago.
Jeremy replied, “My brother is doing good. He has finished the filming in Diverous and will come back to Sagewood. It’s close to Poya. III
go and visit him when training is over.”
Hailey nodded. “I’ll go with you if I’m free.”
“Good.” Jeremy’s eyes glittered, “When are you coming back to Poya?”
“In a couple of days before Valentine’s Day. There is something I need to attend to.”
Hailey took a sip of the wine. It was mellow and not bad. Jeremy nodded and found that she looked stunning in the light.
“Hailey,” he said hesitantly. “Did you go to the hospital to visit your friend?”
Hailey stiffened and replied blandly, “Yeah, he’s injured, and I went to take care of him.”
She visibly turned gloomy. Jeremy’s heart tightened, and he couldn’t help asking, “Is it your ex-husband, Mr. Moore?”
She looked up at the boy and smiled, “You’re well-informed, aren’t you?”
“I saw it in the news.” Jeremy pursed his lips, “The CEO of Mazedew Group saved a lady and took a blow for her. The identity of the lady
was not specified, but I guess it was you.”
“It was me,” Hailey said honestly in a bland tone before having another sip of wine. “He took the blow for me.”
Jeremy looked dazed and dismayed, regretting bringing up the unpleasant topic. “I shouldn’t have asked. I hope you don’t mind.”
He picked up a sausage and put it onto her plate. “This sausage is not bad. You should try it.”
Hailey didn’t really want to talk about her ex-husband in such a pleasant atmosphere. It would affect her mood, so she changed the
subject. “How are you doing? Is the training hard?”
“It’s fine.” Jeremy took a sip of soup, “The intensity increased quite a bit after I joined the national team. I no longer have much time to
help in the restaurant.”
Hailey’s eyes lit up. “You’re in the national team?”
“Yeah.” He nodded.

“That’s great, congrats! You’re amazing.” Hailey happily picked up her bowl, “I’d like to propose a toast. Shout out to our champion.”
Jeremy was a little surprised. “You know Internet slang?”
“You bet, I’m a 5G surfer.” Hailey mildly glared at him.
Jeremy couldn’t argue with that. He picked up his bowl and clinked with hers. “Thank you.”
