Chapter 1396 Meeting Jaydenâs parents After Andrewâs wedding, Amelia was busy with Jocelynâs lawsuit, Stella was busy investigating the truth and clearing Henryâs name, and Eva was busy meeting Jaydenâs parents.
The meeting was set at the most expensive restaurant in Arcadia, and it took a month in advance to secure a reservation.
Mandy said that this meant the Sherwood family valued her, which was why they chose such a fancy restaurant for the meeting. She was told to dress up nicely and make a good impression on Jaydenâs parents.
Eva agreed but didnât put much effort into her appearance. She just did her usual light makeup and wore conservative clothes before heading out.
When Eva entered the restaurant, Jayden, sitting at a round table, immediately stood up and waved her over. âEva, over here.â
Seeing his elegant figure, Eva felt a bit intimidated and wanted to back out. But she was already here, so she had to put on a brave face no matter what.
She clenched her hands and walked towards Jayden, finally noticing the middle-aged couple sitting at the innermost part of the table.
The man was dressed in a suit with a black tie, exuding a dignified and handsome aura that resembled Jayden. The woman had a graceful and elegant demeanor, with a charming and gentle appearance.
As soon as they saw Eva, they greeted her with smiles. âMiss Miller, please come and sit.â
They were quite warm and welcoming, asking Eva to order whatever she wanted while Jayden attended to the waiter.
Their friendly attitude made Eva feel nervous at first, but she gradually relaxed.
Jaydenâs father didnât speak much, leaving most of the questioning to Jaydenâs mother, Natalie. âMiss Miller, how long have you and Jayden been together?â
Eva glanced at Jayden, who was carefully cutting the steak. âItâs been a little over two months since we started dating. It hasnât been that longâ¦â
Natalieâs gentle face carried a hint of a smile. âIt hasnât been long. Jayden told me heâs had a crush on you since high school. Puppy love is quite romantic, isnât it?â
After Jayden finished cutting the steak, he placed it on Evaâs plate. Only then did she smile and respond to Natalieâs comment. âI actually found out about this two months ago at a blind date. I had no idea about his feelings when we were in school together.â
Natalieâs expression slightly changed, and Jayden quickly chimed in, âThat was all one-sided on my part. Eva probably had no clue I existed back then.â
Natalie laughed. âSo, Miss Miller, were you the schoolâs beauty queen or something?â
