President’s Sweet Wife novel Chapter 215

Clara was relieved to see that he did not object. She smiled and everyone started to enjoy this lovely dinner.

However, at that moment, the door of the box was suddenly thrown open.

Hearing the clicking sounds of cameras, they saw some journalists swooping in.

“Mr. Miller, I heard that today the Miller family is meeting with the Dawson family to discuss the marriage between Jessica and Shawn. Is that right?”

“Have you fixed a date for the wedding? When is it?”

“Can you tell us what kind of wedding you will have?”

“I heard you grew up together and have been in love with each other for many years. Can you share your love story with us?”

“...”

The room was filled with all kinds of noises.

The clicking shutter and the blinding flashlight seemed to shock everyone in the box.

When Henry saw those journalists flooding in, he pulled his face immediately.

Shawn was also shocked and looked at Jessica in disbelief.

A flicker of guilt flashed in Jessica's eyes and then she quickly covered it up. She turned to Shawn and shook her head in panic.

“Shawn, it’s not me.”

Clara also pretended to be surprised. But she calmed down very soon and smiled at those journalists.

“Thank you for your concern, but this is a private gathering and I’m afraid we won’t be able to be interviewed today... This is a little inappropriate.”

After saying that, she gave Henry an awkward look. She seemed to be very sorry and frustrated.

Henry scowled, pretending not to see her face.

Shawn came to his senses and knew that there was no use running away from the situation.

Now that the journalists had come, they wouldn’t leave without getting what they want.

So, he stood up in front of the camera and said, “As you can see, today we are here to meet and discuss for our marriage. Jessica is an actress and I can understand why you guys are here. But our parents are ordinary people and we want this meeting to be private. I hope you understand. And if we come up with a result, we will inform you as soon as possible, so please rest assured. Now it’s time for dinner. Please have a rest downstairs and get something to eat. My treat.”

Shawn handled this gracefully. He wasn’t upset that they were interrupting his private trip, nor did he reveal his privacy to please the journalists.

He even offered to buy them dinner, which kind of won their hearts.

They were all impressed.

So was Clara.

She thought to herself, “Jessica isn’t wrong about this young man. He absolutely will be able to benefit the Dawson family.”

At this point, the journalists had nothing left to say.

Even though they wanted to dig in, the Millers refused to say more and there were bodyguards coming to send them out. They had to get out of the room.

After a few minutes, the room was finally quite again.

And a little awkward.

Henry just sat there and didn’t utter a single word.

Philip wanted to say something to ease the mood, but he was not smart enough to make things less awkward.
