Chapter 281 Are You Interested in Him.
It was eight o’clock in the evening.
Cherise and Lucy had had several glasses of water in New World Restaurant’s lobby. They had been waiting for more than half an hour. Previously, their classmates had agreed to meet at the restaurant at seven o’clock, but only two of them showed up.
Aren’t we supposed to have dinner together at New World Restaurant because Mandy is treating us? Why haven’t the others arrived?
Finally, Lucy couldn’t bear it and sent her classmate a message. ‘Is the dinner location changed?”
Although Lucy was initially reluctant to join the dinner, Cherise managed to persuade her. Although New World Restaurant wasn’t as expensive as Viopril Palace, the dishes were amazing. Of course, they wouldn’t want to miss a free meal.
Lucy’s classmate soon replied. ‘Are you guys waiting at New World Restaurant?”
‘Didn’t Jessie inform you that the dinner is canceled? She’s hospitalized, and Mandy is taking care
of her.
“I see.
Cherise was somewhat disappointed. “I thought the dinner would go on.”
Lucy, too, was discouraged. “I thought we could annoy them while having a free meal.”
But in the end, Mandy and Jessie gave up first.
“Why don’t we ask Lennon to buy us a meal.” Cherise took out her phone.
She came out in a hurry and didn’t bring the credit card Damien gave her. The cash she had on hand was insufficient, and she didn’t want to cause trouble if the restaurant staff failed to recognize her. So, she thought getting Lennon over to treat them would be better. Furthermore, Damien said that Lennon had been quite free lately.
“Forget about it.” The moment Cherise dialed Lennon’s number, Lucy stopped her. “I brought money. I can buy the dinner.”
Cherise pouted. “Lucy, the items here are pricey. I would rather not use your father’s hard-earned. money. Moreover, we’re so close with Lennon. He wouldn’t mind for us to have a free meal in his
restaurant.”
She lowered her voice and continued, “Also, my hubby said that Lennon has been free lately. All he has been doing is attending blind dates arranged by Old Mr. Belcourt. I’m sure he’d like to take a break with us.”
Lucy’s hand, which was holding a fork, stopped midair.
“Lennon is going on blind dates? Are you sure?”
She smiled awkwardly. “He’s such a decent man. There must be many girls who like him. Why would he need to go on blind dates?”
Cherise shrugged. “I have no idea. Perhaps there are some other reasons.”
Then, she gazed at Lucy and asked, “Lucy, why do I feel your expression changes every time he’s mentioned? Are you interested in him? My hubby and I can set you guys up.”
The glass that Lucy was holding suddenly fell to the ground. She apologized to the server who came to clean it up and said, “Please stop joking, Cherise. How could I possibly deserve him…”
She just thought that Lennon could be that person.
Cherise pressed her lips. “Why not?” She actually thought Lennon and Lucy were a good match. Moreover, Lennon was Damien’s close friend, and Lucy was hers. If they ended up together, the four of them could have a lifetime of fun!
“I just… don’t deserve him.”
Lucy exhaled deeply and stared at Cherise. “Cherise, please stop making jokes like this in the future.”
