Chapter 132 Immoral
She arrived in about half an hour.
Elisa called Rachel and instructed, “I’ve arrived. Meet me at the entrance.”
She then hung up the phone.
As they approached the door, they noticed a chubby middle-aged man standing by the entryway. He appeared to be busy finding someone, yet he could have passed for a visitor.
When the man spotted Rachel, his eyes lit up and immediately drew his attention to Elisa who was beside her. He hurried down the steps to greet them. “Ms. Iris! Welcome! I just spoke to Ben Lee about you!”
While he did not recognize Rachel, he did recognize Elisa.
How could anyone not recognize her?
Elisa nodded with a smile. “Mr. Lee, let’s continue this inside.” She suggested.
Rachel felt contempt toward Elisa. What a snob.
Throughout the entire period, she had received zero attention.
She felt completely ignored. Eventually, Ben Lee picked up her presence and invited, “Please Ms. Rachel, do come in too.”
Rachel was delighted. This is it; I get to bask in the limelight.
Being with Elisa is my ticket to success! From now on, I’m not leaving her side. Not for one bit!
They soon arrived at a restaurant and seated themselves at a booth. Ben Lee proceeded to distribute the menu to them. “Ms. Iris, Miss Rachel, order anything you would like. By the way, this is an authentic Chinese restaurant. I wasn’t sure what your preferences are in terms of cuisines, so I picked the most popular one in town. If you’re not satisfied, we can always change to another eatery.”

As soon as Ben Lee and Elisa finished their conversations on the phone, they began thinking of dinner plans.
Even though he wasn’t sure if the decision would be supported by everyone, Ben opted for Chinese.
Since he wanted to know Iris from the beginning rather than for a situation like this, he had been careful out of fear of upsetting Elisa.
Beside them, Rachel was trying hard to hold in her laughter. I’m glad this bastard is having a tough time. Just seeing him shaking in his boots, what joy!
Elisa handed the menu to Ben and said, “Tonight’s agenda isn’t for dinner. We need to focus on research. Ben, you do the honors and order for the table.”
Apparently, Elisa didn’t like to order food.
Ben was a discerning individual, so he nodded hastily. He smiled and replied, “Will do. If any of you have any dietary requirements, do let me know. I’ll have it arranged respectively.”
Elisa and Rachel nodded in approval.
While he ordered the dishes, Ben was nervous due to the lack of feedback from the two ladies. Not long, the waiter served their orders.
As the door to their booth closed, the three individuals were left to their devices.
Little did they know, word had spread among the waiters about their whereabouts.
Ms. Iris —the former Mrs. Wickam, was with Ben Lee at this restaurant!
The word that first spread from the restaurant soon migrated to Facebook, and then to Twitter… It was a wildfire!
Everyone wanted to rub elbows with Ms. Iris, so they all set off one by one!
As for the individuals in the booth, everything was relatively quiet. Ben awkwardly coughed to displace the silence, which caught Elisa’s attention.
“Mr. Lee.”
Ben quickly sat upright and looked toward Elisa. He smiled politely and inquired, “Ms. Iris, where were we?”
Elisa placed her hand on the table and tapped the surface with her slender finger. “I have read the contract that was made between you and Rachel. However, I have also read the contract you made between you and Party A. Mr. Lee, this is completely immoral.”
Ben Lee froze. Elisa’s confrontation was displaced by her casual tone. She had just accused him of cheating on her sister.
