Chapter 43: Meeting Again
It was obvious that the people around hadn’t realized it yet. When they saw the current flowing through the cables, they hurriedly shouted to pull down the switch of the few lines. Suddenly, the lights in the field became a little dim.
“Your people are so inefficient.” The young man glanced at the table with a sarcastic smile on his face. “What if someone really dies? What will your TV station do?”
Suzanne also looked over, and her eyes were a little cold. It was too dangerous to put drinks in such a place where all kinds of machines were placed. What if the circuit catches fire?
She sighed and looked up at him. “Thank you.”
The young man waved his hand and turned around, walking towards Eden.
Nancy trotted over. She was far away and couldn’t see clearly what was happening. She only knew that the water fell in the plugboard and didn’t see Suzanne being rescued after she fell down.
“What’s wrong? Are you alright?”
Suzanne shook her head, pointed at Eden not far away, and then whispered in her ear, “If you have time, try to interact with this star as much as possible and help him out.”
Nancy pouted and asked curiously, “Why?”
Suzanne patted her forehead and smiled. “He’s not arrogant, so it’s easy to get along with him. If you can help him a little now, it’ll be much easier for you to ask him for help when he becomes famous in the future.”
“Really?” Nancy’s eyes lit up. She glanced at Eden and immediately ran over. “I have to ask them if they want to eat something tonight!”
Suzanne smiled. She said that she would help him when she had time, but she didn’t ask her to draw him over to her side now.
However, Nancy’s invitation did succeed.
When Eden learned that Nancy wanted to take him to dinner, he did not refuse and readily agreed. It made Nancy extremely happy. She did not pack her things and pulled Suzanne away.
“It’s almost two o’clock. Shall we go for lunch or dinner?”
“Whatever!” Nancy shook her arm. Because Eden was behind her, she spoke in a low voice. “Suzanne, which restaurant are you going to eat? It doesn’t matter if it’s a little more expensive. I brought a card with me.”
Suzanne smiled and said, “Then let’s go to Ferretti.”
This western restaurant could be considered the most exclusive one in Jena City. Although it was expensive, the taste was very good. Every week, there would be a new department of food. With the VIP card here, she could save a lot of expenses.
Suzanne drove her Beetle out of the parking lot and parked at the door. Unexpectedly, in addition to Nancy, Eden and the young man also got in the car.
She had just asked Eden and found out that the young man’s name was Dalton Lazer. He had been working in the North District all the time and had become a lieutenant colonel at such a young age. This vacation was specially for him to come back and relax for a while.
Suzanne didn’t ask why they insisted on squeezing into her own car instead of a luxury car. She drove away neatly and played soothing music.
About ten minutes later, the car arrived at the entrance of the Ferretti Western Restaurant. Under the instructions of the service staff, Suzanne parked the car and took them into the restaurant.
A beautiful waitress greeted her with a smile and asked politely, “Hello, do you have an appointment?”
Suzanne took out a black VIP card and handed it to her with a smile. “Sorry, I didn’t make an appointment in advance. Can you book a private room on the second floor for the four of us?”
The female attendant took the card and looked at it. She gestured for them to follow. “Please come with me.”
The corridors on the second floor were tangled and complicated. The decoration was elegant and noble, with luxurious chandeliers and expensive Persian carpets. Even the abstract paintings on the white walls made people feel comfortable in this atmosphere.
Suzanne didn’t know if she had been unlucky these days to run into an old acquaintance in this place.
On the other side, the group of people had clearly just finished their meal and came out of the private room. Walking at the front was a man and woman. The man was handsome, while the woman was gentle and beautiful. The two of them were a perfect match, especially the man’s eyes that contained a smile.
The person walking behind them was a tall and handsome man. His face was a little cold and hard, and his eyes were expressionless. His lips were slightly pursed, and his aura was calm and reserved. The iron grey suit made him look particularly handsome and charming.
Suzanne glanced at him and quickly lowered her head. She rubbed herself against Nancy and hid behind her.
Why is he here?
Looking at his face, he seemed a little tired. Was he too busy recently that he didn’t notice to rest?
Suzanne’s thoughts were running wild. The closer she got to them, the faster her heartbeat became, accompanied by a slight pain.
They no longer cared about each other, so why did she still care about him so much?
“Hey, baby!”
Myron was sharp-eyed. He glanced at Suzanne, who was cowering behind Nancy. He let go of the shoulder of the previous female companion and strode toward her.
Everyone turned to look at Suzanne.
Suzanne raised her head and glared at Myron, who was smiling cheekily. She put on a polite smile and said, “Good afternoon, Mr. Follette.”
“Sweetheart, it’s already afternoon!” Myron said, touching her delicate face unceremoniously, looking distressed. “Look at your pale face. Did you not eat on time again?”
Suzanne really wanted to strangle Myron to death.
Couldn’t he be a little more restrained in front of so many people? Why did he have to act like they were familiar with each other?
“Mr. Follette, you……” The beautiful woman, who had snuggled up with Myron before, felt very uncomfortable when she saw him and Suzanne chatting intimately in the blink of an eye. She looked a little aggrieved.
“Hey, what’s wrong?” Myron raised his eyebrows. “Why do you look like you’ve been wronged?”
“But you, you called her baby.” The woman bit her lip, and her eyes were misty. “Didn’t you just ask me to date you? What is your relationship with her?”
“Oh, are you jealous?” Myron smiled, but the smile on his handsome face was a little alienated. “If you don’t like it, then break up! The car and the house have been registered under your name and the contract has been signed. Are you satisfied?”
“I don’t want these.” The beautiful woman was so angry that she burst into tears after being persuaded by Myron. She choked with sobs and said, “Myron, you’ve gone too far. How dare you play with me like this?”
“You don’t want it?” Myron grinned. “Okay, then give it back to me!”

Vito, who was standing behind the beautiful woman, stepped forward and hugged her.
Vito pinched her shoulder to calm her down. When he looked up, there was already a polite smile on his face. “Mr. Follette, please don’t mind. Payten is a little willful.”
