Chapter 866 - 860: Which Leg?

"The boss and his wife have such a good relationship, it’s really enviable..." Watching this scene, everyone exclaimed with admiration.

Flynn Hughes sighed again and finished the red wine in his glass, unable to resist muttering softly.

"Scary..."

"Mr. Hughes, what are you talking about?" Upon hearing Flynn’s words, Mr. Liu, who was beside him, showed a puzzled expression. What did he find scary?

Flynn seemed to have been sipping wine and shaking his head in resignation ever since dinner started.

Listening to Mr. Liu’s question, Flynn merely glanced at him and shook his head, not saying much.

Apart from Flynn drinking in silence, the dinner atmosphere was fairly harmonious.

Because Noah Drexler was present, Summer Shawcross didn’t dare eat recklessly. After the dinner began, she mostly drank water and ate some mild greens.

After sitting for a little while, her stomach started to feel uncomfortable from being too full of water.

"Sorry everyone, I need to excuse myself for a bit, I have to go to the restroom," Summer said as she couldn’t help but speak up.

"Mrs. Drexler, I’ll go with you!" Mrs. Zhao immediately offered upon seeing this.

Upon hearing that, Summer instinctively wanted to politely decline.

"There’s no need."

The voice belonged to Noah Drexler.

Hearing this, Mrs. Zhao revealed a somewhat surprised expression.

"I’ll go with her," Noah Drexler said as he pressed his lips together.

As soon as he finished speaking, he stood up.

Seeing this, Summer flashed a smile at everyone and stood up as well.

But as she stood up, a sudden pain shot through her left leg.

Summer gasped in pain.

"What’s wrong?" Seeing this, Noah Drexler’s face showed an anxious expression as he quickly reached out to steady her.

"My leg cramped..." Summer paused and then quietly said before sitting back down.

"Never mind, I’ll go later."

Since becoming pregnant, her body had undergone some changes; for example, her legs would swell a bit more than before.

They would occasionally cramp, but luckily her belly hadn’t grown large yet, so the symptoms weren’t too severe.

Cramped?

Hearing Summer’s words, Noah Drexler frowned as he glanced at her leg, then suddenly pushed his chair back and proceeded to turn Summer’s chair slightly to face him.

"Noah Drexler..." Summer gazed at him, bewildered, filled with confusion about his intentions.

Noah Drexler’s expression was serious as he crouched down in front of her, frowning with concern as he asked softly.

"Which leg?"

Upon hearing his words, Summer froze for a moment before softly replying.

"The left leg."

As soon as she spoke, Noah Drexler, who was crouched half-kneeling in front of her, reached for her left leg, and with the other hand, attempted to remove her left boot...

"Noah Drexler, don’t..." Summer gritted her teeth and spoke up nervously.

Summer realized his intentions instantly, and it startled her as she quickly bent down, reaching out to stop him.

It’s still dinner time, and everyone is watching. Doing this might be inappropriate.

Besides... he’s the proud owner of JR Group. Kneeling down in front of so many subordinates to help her with her leg, wouldn’t he worry about losing face if word got out?
