Restoring a Life After Seven Years of Wrong Love novel Chapter 182

"Let's go. To celebrate your discharge, Jabez specifically booked a table at The Vervain."

Willow smiled softly at first, then suddenly thought of Milton Graham. She casually asked, "Why isn't Milton here?"

"He had some business to take care of. He'll meet us directly at The Vervain," Trent replied.

He must really be busy, considering he just got back from an overseas trip and came straight to the hospital to see her from the airport, Willow thought.

The three drove to The Vervain and entered their private dining room.

Jabez took the head seat, with Willow and Trent sitting on either side of him.

Jabez handed the menu to Willow. She was already quite familiar with Trent and Milton and knew their preferences.

She ordered a few dishes for everyone, then passed the menu to Trent.

"See if there's anything else you want to add."

Trent glanced at it, smiled, and closed the menu. "No need."

Just as he spoke, his gaze was drawn to the pendant resting on Willow's collarbone.

The emerald pendant had incredible clarity and water-like translucence. It looked exceptionally valuable, and he instinctively assumed Jabez had gifted it to her.

"Is that a new gift from Jabez? It suits you."

Hearing this, Willow looked at Jabez, who was already staring at the pendant. The usual coldness in his eyes had significantly softened.

The two exchanged a knowing smile.

"No," Willow denied, taking a sip from her glass.

Sensing there was a story there, Trent leaned forward, his curiosity piqued. "Come on, out with it. What's the story behind it? I want to hear."

"What story?" Milton arched a brow as he pushed the door open, taking the seat next to Trent.

"Jabez, can I tell them?" Willow gazed affectionately at Jabez.

"What could possibly be so secretive that you need Jabez's permission?" Trent joked. "Even if you poked a hole in the sky, Jabez would find a way to patch it for you, let alone a little story like this."
