Chapter 1079: Chapter 1106: Meeting the Parents (2)

No wonder people say—

What is love in the world but the one that tames another.

What the hell!

Jacob Quinn’s gaze shifted away from the two, truly unwilling to see them appear together.

His girlfriend didn’t quite understand why he hated Windsor Myres so much, she bit her lip slightly, and lowered her head sullenly, saying nothing.

—

The location of Central Scenic Court is quite nice.

Camden River had booked a meal in advance, right outside the neighborhood at Chilly Tower.

A group of people walked over, took about ten minutes, and everyone was seated in the private room, sitting around a large round table, filling it up completely. Soon, several waiters in dark red cheongsams entered and started serving dishes.

Chilly Tower’s decor style is quaint, and the dishes are very particular, with elegant names and perfect color, aroma, and taste.

Camden River and Windsor Myres sat together, and everyone laughed and raised their glasses to toast the housewarming. Someone jested mischievously: "Now you’re just ready to cohabit, when’s the wedding banquet?"

Camden River’s fingers tightened on his glass, he looked up and said: "After graduation."

Just now, Windsor Myres dragged her luggage in, and although the others at home didn’t speak, they all saw it clearly. Even though he was displeased, he was unable to voice his discontent, having no means to refute, so he had to respond.

"Getting married right after graduation?" Jacob Quinn smirked, "Congratulations to Miss Myres then, finally achieving her goal."

His way of addressing was peculiar, and the tone of his speech was strange too, naturally making Windsor Myres uncomfortable, she curled her lips disdainfully and didn’t respond.

The back and forth made the atmosphere a bit tense, appearing strained.

Camden River glanced at Jacob Quinn and chuckled, "Thanks." But there was confusion between his eyebrows, since back in school he got along well with Jacob Quinn, and he had never so openly expressed his dislike for Windsor Myres. Even in the past half month after returning to the country, whenever Windsor Myres was mentioned, he always showed a bad face, it was quite perplexing, leaving Camden River slightly clueless.

But—

Camden River’s thoughts were quickly interrupted by someone.

Daniel Davis turned his head and smiled at the waiter beside him: "Could you pour a glass of warm water, please."

"Sure." The waiter nodded and went away.

He returned quickly with the water.

Daniel Davis took the glass, raised his hand, and touched the edge, speaking in a low voice: "It’s a bit hot, drink it later. If you’re not feeling well, avoid cold and raw food, have some soup instead, it’s gentle on the stomach."

"I got it." Lilian’s voice was very low, her face a bit red.

In the private room, there were just so many people, his voice wasn’t too high or too low, everyone could hear. She felt a bit embarrassed.

Beside her, Mina Lee merely thought she was shy, and with a bright smile, she said: "Oh, Lawyer Davis’s attentive care is really enviable, some folks should learn a thing or two, eh." With that, she nudged Roy Anders, who responded with helplessness.

Lilian softly reminded her, "Lower your voice."

Mina Lee was amused, teased further: "Still shy, haha. Lawyer Davis, pure girls like our Lilian are rare now, you must cherish her."

"Certainly." Daniel Davis replied swiftly.

Their banter inadvertently made Windsor Myres displeased again.

Mina Lee did it intentionally.

Lilian liked Camden River, but he was with Windsor Myres, and Windsor’s personality was such that she always acted and spoke without consideration, very ostentatious and hard to accept.

Especially since she’s Lilian’s friend; initially, their bond wasn’t deep, but now they’re considered close friends.

Sitting together, past events naturally resurfaced in everyone’s mind.
