The Ex-Wife Strikes Back By Queena Laurie

Chapter 53 

Although Hayden did not say much, he left without forgetting to instruct Jacob to settle the transfer of the woman’s father. It could be seen that the woman had left a deep impression on Hayden, 

Jacob mused again “What did Marco just say? Hayden’s office sent a fax today, asking me to go to Druobridge? And Channing said that he would treat me to a meal to thank me for my help in Navarre? Both of these events happen to be today. Is this just a coincidence? That’s impossible. Could it be that Hayden is still in touch with the woman? That’s why he’s afraid that I won’t pay attention to it, and he deliberately asked the people in his office to send me a fax notice today, and at the same time asked Channing to invite me for a meal. Otherwise, with Channing’s personality, it would be impossible for him to have the courage to ask me out for a meal, because he knew that I would most likely reject him.” 

Jacob immediately felt what he thought made sense! 

Marco was stunned by Jacob’s question and nodded immediately. “Yes, Mr. Miller! Then, am I going to reject Mr. Moore or…” 

Before Marco could finish his sentence, Jacob gave him a stern look. He was obviously dissatisfied with Marco’s arbitrariness in helping him make a decision. With that, Marco felt a cold sweat coming out of his back. 

“Give me the phone!” 

“Yes, Mr. Miller!” 

Marco hurriedly took out his phone from his pocket and handed it over with both hands. Jacob then took it over, directly searched through the call history, and made a call. 

“Channing, why are you inviting me to a meal so suddenly? Oh, your classmate is also here? But I’m not available today! How about tomorrow at noon? Okay, I’ll see you tomorrow then. Goodbye!” 

After Jacob hung up the phone, Marco quickly took it over. With a joyful look on his face, Jacob mused, “As I expected.” 

Jacob mused I knew that Channing won’t have the courage to treat me to a meal. That’s indeed Aurelia. Interesting! I really didn’t expect that the little girl would be so capable. She’s able to win the heart of the eldest grandson of the Yeager family just after a night of fun! Now that Hayden has hinted so clearly, I have to respect him no matter what. I’ll just go for the meal then. I’ll take this opportunity to see how beautiful and attractive Aurelia is!” 

“Did Jacob really agree?” 

Aurelia looked at Channing with a surprised look. Although she knew that Channing would definitely help her, she did not expect him to be so efficient. She just mentioned it yesterday and he went to make an appointment for her today. 

The most important thing was that the foremost childe in Nuthana would agree to the appointment so quickly! 

Originally, she thought it was unlikely that she would be able to meet Jacob, so she wanted to visit her father’s connections in Nuthana. 

Now it seemed that she had to cancel the visit and make arrangements for the meal. That was not easy for her to meet these snobbish scions and make connections with them. 

“Well. I’m a little surprised too! I didn’t expect Mr. Miller to agree, but he’s not available tonight and can only make it at noon tomorrow!” 

“Channing, thank you so much! You really did me a big favor!” 

“It’s my pleasure, Aurelia. In fact, I didn’t bother much. Mr. Miller agreed to go to the meal, probably because he was in a good mood today. But tomorrow, there are some things that you have to think about before you mention them. Mr. Miller does not have a good temper!” 

Channing kindly reminded her. Aurelia nodded quickly and said, “Okay. Don’t worry. I know what I should say. I won’t give you trouble. I need you to help me find out Mr. Miller’s preferences!” 

“Mr. Miller…” 

They talked about how to give Jacob a good impression the next day. 

However, their preparations were unnecessary, because Jacob had long been impressed by Aurelia! 

That was a 5–star hotel specializing in roasted chicken. 

According to Channing, Jacob seemed to like roasted chicken. 

It was said that guests followed the arrangements of the host. But Jacob was not an ordinary guest. If they did not arrange it according to his preference, the meal would definitely be a bad start. 

Aurelia spent a lot of effort and money to get a good private room from someone else. The business of the hotel was quite good. It usually took half a month in advance to book a good private room. 

Now the wine and dishes were ready, waiting for the main guest to come. 

Because of Channing’s low rank and his being the host, he went to the lobby on the first floor to wait for Jacob early. As for Aurelia, because she was a woman, if she openly appeared in the hotel lobby, she was afraid that people would see her together with Jacob, which would cause unnecessary misunderstanding, so she waited on the reception couch in the private room. 

That was ten past eleven. 

The door of the private room was opened. Aurelia immediately got up from the couch and looked at the door.

Before she could speak, a tall man in a white suit walked in the middle. He looked at Aurelia in astonishment and said, “Why are you here?” 

Upon hearing that, not only Aurelia was stunned, but also the two personal secretaries of Channing and Jacob were surprised. 

But soon, Aurelia smiled elegantly and said in a relaxed and half joking tone, “It seems that I was lucky enough to be seen by Mr. Miller on other occasions. If so, then I’m really unlucky, as I missed the opportunity to know a young talent like Mr. Miller!” 

Aurelia deliberately spoke a soft common language in Navarre’s tone. Coupled with her charm and elegant smile, it was easy to win the favor of others, especially men. 

Sure enough, after a few sweet words from Aurelia, the awkwardness was gone, and it also evoked a smile from Jacob at the same time. 

Jacob had to admit that Aurelia was capable. At least her ability to react in the situation was much stronger than ordinary people’s.
