Chapter 858

“She indirectly caused Rachel to commit suicide, so she'll be convicted,” Genevieve elaborated.

“Poor Rachel.” Johanna lowered her eyes.

Like Rachel, she had an irresponsible mother. Worse still, she had a gambling-obsessed father who used her to pay off his gambling debts.

If I hadn't bumped into Genevieve in Xedells that night, I would have ended up no better than Rachel.

Clocking her low-spirited state, Genevieve sprang to her feet and grabbed her hand. “It's been a long time since we last dined together. Let's go out for lunch this noon! It'll just be us three adults while Lucian and the kids stay home to eat.”

Then, she turned to Hector. “Mr. Lee, aren't you going to treat me to a meal since this is the first time we're meeting?”

Hector nodded with a smile. “It'll be my pleasure.”

As soon as Amanda heard that her mother wanted to leave them at home, she pouted and geared up to voice her objection. Lucian hastily clapped a hand over her mouth. “After lunch, I'll help you with your Lego Disney castle.”

After hearing that, Amanda promptly turned docile.

Well, it's quite worthwhile to exchange a meal outside with free labor from Lucian for an afternoon!

When they had all gotten into the car, Genevieve said to Hector, “I haven't eaten barbeque in a long while, so let's go and have some at Quintessential Barbecue. Can you eat spicy, Mr. Lee?”

“Of course! While I grew up abroad, I'm still from Jadeborough and love eating spicy!” Hector answered with a grin.

"Great!”

It happened to be lunch hour when they arrived at Quintessential Barbecue. Hence, the place was filled to the brim. The three of them were led to a table by the window by the server.

Shortly after they had ordered, the server carried a grill plate over. As the oil sizzled, a fragrant aroma permeated the air.

Johanna talked shop with Hector, asking him to lend her a hand in the afternoon. Not only did Hector readily agree, but he even thoughtfully placed some grilled mutton slices into her bowl.
