Chapter 653
Roger finally decided to swallow his words.
Anger boiled in his heart. He really did not want to go abroad under the sponsorship of Weston’s company.
But he knew that Stella would be distraught if he told her his true thoughts. Left with little choice, he could only hide his true feelings deep inside.
In the private room. Guinevere shrugged off her coat and sat opposite Weston. She smiled and said, “This is our first official date after I gave birth. What a day to remember.” Weston browsed through the menu and handed it to her.” See what you’d like to eat.”
He had never been warm or emotional toward her.
Guinevere had long been used to his temperament, and though her smile waned a little, it did little to douse her excitement. “I heard that this restaurant serves great caviar, and coincidentally, it’s currently the caviar season. Shall we give it a try?”
“You decide.”
Guinevere nodded and placed her order. She suddenly remembered something. “Is there something you’d like to eat?”
She never knew Weston’s taste preferences. The last time she cooked for him, she had no idea if it was to his liking, though he finished the meal.
Weston’s tone was mild. “Anything is fine.” Guinevere’s eyes shifted; her enthusiasm slightly doused. “Then I’ll order a portion of steak.”
After she placed the order, both of them fell silent with nothing else to talk about. Guinevere tried to search for a common topic. “Have you been very busy at work recently? I heard my parents say the western suburb project is progressing very quickly. Do take care of your health.” Weston nodded, his mouth glued as he continued reading the documents in his hands. Guinevere complained in a well-measured coquettishness, “You’re on a date with me, but your mind is still on your work. Isn’t that a bit too much?”
Weston put down the documents in his hand. “What do you want to talk about?”
