Chapter 249 First Choice for Daughter-in-Law

Upon hearing this, a glint flickered in Harry’s eyes.

“He’s not going to be back that fast, but I’ve already sent him the location.”

Aylin’s eyebrows furrowed slightly. “What could be more important than welcoming you and helping you settle in? What business does he have in the racing club that takes so long?”

Robert is not the kind of person who has trouble prioritizing. Even if he’s extremely busy, he would always make time to visit his family who traveled a long way to see him.

What’s going on today?

At this moment, Deli Restaurant was bustling during the peak dining hours.

On the stage, graceful young women dressed in traditional costumes performed. The moonlight shone while the wind gently swayed the sheer curtains. Dining there offered a triple delight for the senses, for it was a feast for the ears, eyes, and taste buds.

That day, Haleigh arranged to have dinner with Jacquelyn at this place.

“Wow, there are so many people. I’ve been standing in line for so long that my legs are starting to hurt,” Haleigh grumbled as she walked through the door.

Jacquelyn gracefully sat down. “But I think it’s worth it. The piece being played on stage is quite good. If I’m not mistaken, it’s a famous work by a Texas composer, and it’s quite challenging to play too.” Jacquelyn took her seat elegantly, showing no signs of impatience from waiting in line.

“That’s right, and I heard that the food at this restaurant is quite authentic too,” Haleigh said as she took a seat, a satisfied smile on her face.

Actually, Haleigh couldn’t understand what she was talking about.

However, Haleigh was also very satisfied with Jacquelyn’s talent and knowledge, for it made her a very presentable daughter-in-law.

“What would you like to eat today?” Haleigh asked.

Jacquelyn elegantly flipped open the menu, her eyes lighting up. “Fresh abalone and sea bass are best when steamed to preserve their natural flavors.

This restaurant has quite a rich variety of seafood dishes, and they seem to be quite professional in their preparation.”

As she spoke, she looked around at the elegant and luxurious decorations. The tablecloth even had a subtle bamboo leaf pattern, and the redwood chairs were all meticulously crafted.

“I would really like to get to know the owner of this restaurant. If I had the chance to discuss cooking techniques with them, that would be fantastic.”

Upon hearing this, Haleigh was overjoyed. “You enjoy cooking?”

Jacquelyn smiled slightly. “Of course. I think the kitchen is a very warm and cozy place as it is full of the joys of life.”

Haleigh’s heart leaped with joy.

As Jacquelyn was able to cook, Haleigh could even save on having a helper at home to prepare meals!

The more Haleigh looked at Jacquelyn, the more satisfied she became. With a tall and slender figure, wide hips, and a healthy appearance, Jacquelyn was quite attractive. Moreover, Jacquelyn had studied abroad and possessed excellent culinary skills.

She was simply the perfect daughter-in-law candidate in her eyes!

“I noticed your social media posts lately. It seems like you’ve been really busy?”

Jacquelyn nodded gracefully. “Yes. I’ve been helping out at my father’s company. I just took over some projects, so it’s been quite busy lately.”/

It was only then that Haleigh remembered she still didn’t know what Jacquelyn’s family did for a living. Previously, Haleigh had been so engrossed in playing poker with Riley Wescott that she hadn’t really asked about their background.

“What does your father’s company do?”

“Nirvana Filmworks.”

Haleigh’s eyes widened instantly. “Isn’t that New York’s second largest production company? I heard they’re amazing and have produced quite a few hit shows.”

“It’s pretty good I guess.”

Jacquelyn spoke as casually as if discussing the weather, her smile modest. “My father loves movies, and his investment choices have been pretty good. Last year’s Galaxy Part.2, as well as the New Year releases Dual Moonwalk and Escape The Slaves, were all projects he invested in. I hope Mrs. Delacruz won’t laugh at them.”

This isn’t funny at all. This is incredibly impressive!

Haleigh slapped her thigh in excitement and said, “I really love these movies. I’ve watched them twice! I can’t believe your family invested in and participated in their production. Your father has great taste and a keen sense of aesthetics!””

“Not at all, Mrs. Delacruz, you flatter me.”

Haleigh’s heart blossomed with joy. The more she looked at Jacquelyn, the more pleasing she found her, already ranking her as the top choice for a daughter-in-law.
