Chapter 751
Melanie had not encountered Simon and his friends for quite some time. Her relationship with Simon had always been bad, so she intended to ignore their presence.
However, Simon stopped her, and Melanie could only look straight at him. He furrowed his brows, giving off an inquisitive look.

“We were stuck in a traffic jam,” Kander explained.
Liana blinked. “That’s the downside of Jepton. Do you want to consider going to Europe with us? There’s rarely any traffic there. Everyone rides bicycles.”
Cutting to the chase, Xander asked, “Just tell me. Why did you call me out for dinner?”
“Did you forget it’s Dad’s birthday next month?” Liana casually asked. “Why don’t you follow us back? He called me last night. I can’t go back without you.
