Chapter 280

They went to a western restaurant that featured a very refreshing and elegant environment.

At first, both Xavier and Zack did not get along well with each other, but after that lawsuit, they became good buddies and had a very close relationship.

‘ Mr. Rosenwell, let me raise a toast to you. I would’ve been ruined if it weren’t for your eloquent speech that helped me win this case. My father would’ve had a field day, beating me to death!”

Xavier held his glass of wine up to Zack.

However, Zack never forgot about Renee, his boss. He hurriedly said, “You don’t have to thank me. I’m just my boss’s employee. I wouldn’t have fought in your case without her permission.’

“That’s right! Let’s toast to Renee!”

Zack raised his glass of wine to Renee and said half-jokingly, “I won’t see you as a young married woman who doesn’t know anything. I’ll call you… Ren. What do you think?”

While talking, he sang casually. “Ren, you’re my darling… You’re the moon high up in the sky…”

Hearing that, Renee was overjoyed, and she smiled broadly. Even her eyes turned smiley.

“Sure, Xavier. I didn’t expect you to sing so well. I was moved.”

‘ Now you know!”

When he mentioned that topic, he became eager and started rambling.” Back then, in our circle, I was famous for being the singer of romantic songs. I was good at singing and writing tunes. Women went crazy for me, and I nearly made a debut. I even wrote songs for a famous singer. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Stefan…”

Xavier turned to Stefan, who was sitting beside him. “Isn’t that right, Stefan? You’ve got to testify for me.”

Stefan lowered his head to cut the steak elegantly. However, he wore a cold expression, giving off a sense of distant nobility.

He seemed to be slightly unhappy as he cut the steak forcefully. He then snorted and said, “You talk so much. Why didn’t you join a talk show?”

“Stefan, do you have to…”

Xavier became slightly awkward. “I’m always so talkative. You know that. When did I offend you? Why are you angry for no reason?”

“I’m not angry!”

Stefan was munching the steak and replied coldly.

The steak that day was quite hard. He was very annoyed while eating it.

“You have such a bad temper. You’re just angry. Are you jealous because I talked to Ren more?”

Xavier asked seriously, but in exchange, Stefan shot him a cold glare.

He was giving Xavier a warning. ‘If you say any more nonsense, I’ll throw my knife at you instead.’

Renee felt slightly awkward, so she immediately gulped some orange juice to hide her awkwardness.

At the same time, she muttered inwardly, ‘Stefan is jealous because of me? That won’t be!’

Stefan put down the knife and fork before he picked up a napkin to wipe his lips. He glared at Xavier fiercely and coldly, “Didn’t you always find her an eyesore? Why are you showing off now?”

Xavier quickly answered, “Stefan, that’s not right. I’m not showing off. Ren and I are good friends that care for each other. She admitted to it too… Isn’t that right, Ren?”

“Yeah, that’s right.”

Renee did him the honor and nodded. She said, “We became friends for life after you bought me coffee. After that cup of coffee, you and I are friends forever.”

The most important thing was that Xavier was very straightforward. He leased that 1500 square-foot piece of land to her just like that. Besides, the rent was so cheap. Indeed, it was a rare occurrence in a world where greed got the better of everyone.
