Love After Marriage: Mr. Lancaster's Hidden Wife
Chapter 257
Sylvia noticed Sherryâs gaze and asked curiously, âWhatâs wrong?â âN-Nothing.â Sherry snapped back to
her senses and looked at the menu. Not long after, Lloyd asked in a low voice, âMr. Price, shall we order
some beer?â
Edmund shot him a look.
Harry slapped the back of Lloydâs head. âDid you forget what Mr. Price said before?â Lloyd held his head
and pouted reluctantly.
Sylvia said to Edmund, âItâs really fine. You guys can order some beer if you want to drinkâ
Sherry was here anyway, so Sylvia was not worried that they would go wild after drinking. However,
Edmund said, âTheyâre not drinking. Just ignore them.â Harry grinned while Lloyd put on a bitter smile.
Sherry touched her chin while her eyes flickered back and forth between Edmund and Sylvia.
The hot grilled meat was soon served on the table. Sylvia had had dinner with them several times
already and felt familiar with them, so she picked up her cutlery and started eating. Edmund also picked
up his cutlery and ate politely, stealing glances at Sylvia from time to time.
Harry loved to brag and chatted with Harry for a while. They occasionally talked about Lush Heaven.
Sherry also joined in the conversation, so the meal was very lively.
Edmund told Harry to settle the bill and walked out with Sylvia and Sherry first.
Sylvia smiled and said to him, âThanks for treating us, Edmund. Itâll be my treat next time.â
Edmund did not refuse. âSure. Weâll have a feast next time.â Sylvia laughed. âNo problem.â After saying
goodbye to him, she left with Sherry. When they were far away, Sherry asked in a low voice, âSyl, when
did you get so close to Edmund?â
Sylvia replied, âHe likes to collect paintings. Recently, he has been participating in the activities held by
the Art Association and even went to see an exhibition held by a friend of mine, so I got to know him
better.â Sherry secretly clicked her tongue. Edmund did not look like the type who had an appreciation for
the arts at all. He must have taken a liking to Sylvia. Furthermore, it was obviously different from what he
had with other women before. He was
probably serious about Sylvia. However, Sylvia did not notice Edmundâs interest in her.
Sherry was conflicted. Edmund was not a good person, but Sylvia had been single for so many years. It
was time for her to find a partner. She thought, âLetâs just wait and see.â Meanwhile, outside the grill,
Edmund leaned against a wall, looking with curved eyes while smiling at Sylvia and Sherry, who had
walked away. Lloyd and Harry quickly came out. Lloyd could not help but ask, âMr. Price, are we not
allowed to drink as long as we have dinner with Ms. Ross?â
Harry glared at him. âWhat are you thinking? Weâll be able to drink after Ms. Ross gets together with Mr.
Price.â
âWhen will that be?â Lloyd was depressed. âMr. Price, why are you going through all this trouble? Canât
you just snatch her away?â
Whack!
Edmund directly slapped him on the head. He glared at Lloyd fiercely. âLil Syl is different from other
women. Iâll twist your neck if you say that again.â
âYes, yes, I understand. I wonât say it again.â Lloyd quickly held his head and took a few steps back
Harry looked at Edmundâs expression and did not dare to say anything either. Then, Edmund said, âGo
and get Ned.â âMr. Price, why are you asking for Ned?â âIsnât he the best at planning special occasions? I
want to confess to Lil Syl. Tell him to arrange for a venue and decorate it within two days.â Edmund
smirked as he spoke. He really could not wait to be with Sylvia.
