Chapter 241
Love After Marriage: Mr. Lancaster's Hidden Wife
Chapter 241 Sylvia suddenly remembered that she promised to go for dinner with him a few days ago.
However, what was âLil Sylâ? She thought about it and replied, âTonight is fine. Where are we going to
eat?â
Sylvia was not afraid of him. She was just afraid that he would bring people to her place and block her
again if he was unhappy.
Furthermore, he was a gangster, so he could not be provoked. Edmund replied in seconds, âYou choose.
Iâm fine wherever.â Sylvia said, âHow about the restaurant I brought you guys to last time?â. That way,
she could run away easily if anything happened. However, Edmund was displeased. âDo I look that
stingy?â Sylvia was speechless and thought, âFine, Iâm the stingy one.â Edmund quickly said, âElysian
House, 7 p.m. Iâll wait for you in the best private room.â Elysian House was a bona fide highâend
restaurant. .
Since he wanted to be so extravagant, Sylvia did not hold back and replied, âSure.â
In the evening, after sending the two little ones back to the old Carter mansion, she drove to Elysian
House.
Two familiar men ran over as soon as she got out of the car. One of them had dyed yellow hair, and the
other had green hair. They were obviously Edmundâs little minions. When they saw Sylvia, enthusiastic
smiles immediately bloomed on their faces.
âMs. Ross, Mr. Price is waiting for you upstairs. Come with us.â
Sylvia smiled and followed them to the room upstairs. The lights were set to their brightest in the
spacious room. Edmund wore a wellâironed suit and had a long overcoat draped over his shoulders.
When Sylvia came in, she saw him sitting on a chair with his legs crossed and a cigarette dangling from
the corner of his mouth.
At first glance, he looked like a mob boss from a noir film.
Sylvia could not help but snicker.
Edmund froze. Although he did not know why she laughed instead of being stunned by him, when he
saw her beautiful smile, he also smiled in return. âHave a seat, Ms. Ross.â Grasshead slowly pulled out a
chair beside Edmund.
Sylvia thanked him and sat down. Edmund raised his brows at Blondie. Blondie instantly shouted,
âWaiter, bring the menu!â
A waiter immediately came in with a menu.
The menu was placed in front of Sylvia.
Edmund chewed his cigarette and said to her, âLil Syl, order whatever you want. Donât hold back on my
account.â The corners of Sylviaâs mouth twitched. âLil Syl? âHeâs acting very familiar.â She said, âMr. Price,
you can just call me by my name.â

Edmund replied, âThen you have to call me by my name too.â Sylvia froze. The grin at the corners of his
mouth looked a little evil, but in reality, it was rather silly. âIs he the gangster who committed great
misdeeds that Sherry mentioned?â Sylvia hesitated and called him, âEdmund.â âYeah!â he answered
loudly.
Sylvia pursed her lips. âI guess heâs a silly gangster.â She did not say anything else and casually ordered
a few side dishes before passing the menu to Edmund Edmund did not order and threw the menu to
Blondie and the others. âYou guys can order whateverâyou want to eat.â Blondie and the others said
happily, âGreat! Thanks, Mr. Price!â Then, they ordered all the most expensive dishes.
After that, they started to order alcohol. Someone asked, âMr. Price, what kind of beer do you want?â
Edmund turned his head and looked at Sylvia. âLil Syl, what kind of beer do you want?â Sylvia quickly
said, âI donât drink beer. Thereâs no need to order for me.â
