Chapter 249

After hanging up the phone, Jane kept glancing at me sneakily.

I was puzzled. “Why are you looking at me like that?”

“Do you think the investor Lynsey is introducing to us might be your ex–husband?”

“No way.” I shook my head, but then I hesitated a bit. “Ryan just got out of the hospital, and I haven’t heard him or Gary mention this recently.”

*Then who could it be?” Jane became puzzled.

I couldn’t guess either, so I said, “Well, since we have a dinner appointment, let’s go and see. Jelaston is a small place. If it’s someone we know, they can’t keep their identity a secret.*

“Good point,” Jane agreed.

Later in the evening, after changing into a different outfit, I grabbed a beige wool

coat and went with Jane to the dinner appointment

The restaurant was booked by Jane. Having worked in the marketing department for many years, she knew her way around social engagements.

Upon arrival, the waiter led us to a private room.

The private room faced the river and offered a view of the twinkling lights. The ambiance was elegant and tasteful, and the dishes were authentic Jelaston cuisine.

Lynsey was already there.

She warmly greeted us and naturally asked Jane, “You two know today’s guest well, right? I have a big project and really want to collaborate with their group. Can you help me put in a good word later?”

Jane asked directly. “Lynsey, is it from the Frost group?”

“The Frost Group?”

Lynsey frowned and scolded Jane with a glare. “Are you stupid? Both you and Ms. Wilson resigned from the Frost Group. Would the Frost Group be foolish enough to come support a new brand and challenge their own F&A?”

It really wasn’t the Frost family group.

Even if it didn’t work out, we wouldn’t lose anything.

Soon, the waiter’s voice came from outside. “Hello, this way please.”

Then, the door to the private room was pushed open. Besides the waiter, a tall young man stood there. He looked like he was in his 20s, with deep and distinct features, giving off a slight mixed–race vibe.
