Chapter 748

Franklin turned around gently and saw her looking down. He put down

his pen and reached out to lift her chin, only to see the faint redness in

her eyes.

"Hmm? What's wrong?" he asked.

Why were her eyes suddenly red?

“It's nothing. I just felt moved all of a sudden. Moved by you," Sylvia

said with a slight smile, her eyes shining bright as she looked at him.

Franklin playfully tapped her nose. "You have such a sentimental side?"

“I only show this side of me to you. No one else gets to see it," Sylvia

raised an eyebrow and returned back to being the cold queen that she

was known for.

Franklin chuckled and picked her up, causing Sylvia to instinctively

wrap herself around his waist as he carried her over towards the chair

next to their table.

“You sit here like a good girl while I finish up here. Then we'll go eat

French cuisine together,” Franklin said with kindness in his voice as he

set Sylvia down on the chair.

Seeing how gentle Franklin was being towards herself made Sylvia feel

soft inside once again.

She nodded heavily before saying, "Okay! I'll wait for you!"

Franklin smiled happily with joy sparkling in his eyes - could it be that

she was moved by him?

His mood continued soaring higher than ever before throughout

lunchtime when they met up with Brayden, Jenna and Jasper at the

French restaurant where everyone wanted something delicious due to

how cold it was outside!

As soon as they entered through those doors though, all heads turned

towards them - each person looking like models who had just stepped

off of a runway!

Especially when it came down between Franklin and Sylvia; standing

there together made them look even better than any top-tier male

model or actress out there!

All five people were led over by the manager who greeted them warmly

upon arrival. "How many are in your party?"

"Five," Jasper replied quickly while asking if there were any private

rooms available too...

“I'm sorry but we don't have any private rooms left today since those

need reservations ahead of time... Would sitting near this corner table

be alright instead? It's quieter over here.”

Franklin glanced over at Sylvia before asking if that would work for

everyone else 100...

"Sure thing!" She answered first before taking a seat which caused

everyone else to follow suit until they found themselves seated around

an elongated rectangular table meant for six people but perfectly suited

their group size without feeling cramped or crowded either!

There was even an ornamental tree nearby which blocked other

customers’ views from seeing what they were doing so overall things

seemed quite perfect!

As soon as they sat down, a few customers arrived at another table

nearby.

"Do you know who I am?" A sharp voice rang out, accompanied by the

sound of high heels tapping.

"Ah... you are..." The manager looked a bit puzzled at the girl in front of

him. She was pretty, better looking than an average person, but not as

pretty as the two women from the previous table.

He saw so many customers every day that he had no idea who this

woman was...

Even if he had seen her before, he forgot about it.

“I'm Katie. Don't you know me? I'm a celebrity!" Katie angrily introduced

herself. She found that she had been having bad luck since she met

that damn man and woman on the plane yesterday.

She couldn't even get a private room for dinner as a celebrity? What a

joke!

"Hurry up and arrange a private room for me!"

“I'm sorry, Miss Mcguire, but we really don't have any private rooms

available right now," the manager said awkwardly. Katie? Why did that

name sound so familiar?

But he was busy like a spinning top every day and didn't pay attention

to entertainment gossip, so he didn't know if Katie was some kind of

celebrity in showbiz or not.

So he didn't privilege her.

With so many customers in his restaurant, if everyone got special

treatment, then how would his business survive?

"Forget it, Katie, it's just one seat. Since there are no private rooms

available, we can sit here t00." A very elegant voice sounded out.

Jasper froze when he heard this voice while sitting in his seat. He

couldn't help but look over there and saw a woman wearing

professional attire standing next to Katie with her hair tied up neatly

behind her head. Her fair skin looked elegant and graceful especially

with those calm eyes which exuded elegance with every move she

made; she was very beautiful too - upon closer inspection, Jasper

noticed some resemblance between them both.

Sylvia and Franklin also noticed this woman too.

Franklin raised an eyebrow, "Shouldn't you go say hello?"

The woman also had a young man beside her who looked somewhat

similar to Katie.

Jasper hesitated for a moment before standing up and walking towards

where they were sitting.

"Carolyn."

Carolyn couldn't believe her ears when she heard Jasper's voice. She

looked up and saw the handsome man standing tall in front of her.

A look of surprise flashed across her pretty and elegant face. Her voice

trembled as she spoke, "Jasper? What are you doing here? When did

you come back to Urgford? Why didn't you look for me?"
