Chapter 139

Daniel’s eyebrows twitched a little. Then, he called Alice back and put the phone to his ear. His expression did not change much, but his tone was cold. “What’s the matter?”

When Alice heard his voice, she was stunned. “Um, Daniel, is it inconvenient for you to answer the call?”

“It’s convenient now.” So she could explain now.

“Oh.” Alice glanced at Freddie who was suddenly approaching her. She paused for a second before saying, “The press conference has ended successfully. Are you free at noon? I’ll treat you and William to a seafood buffet.”

It was actually not an explanation.

Daniel’s expression immediately turned even more frigid. “I have a lot of work to do, so I might not be free at noon.”

William was listening to Daniel’s phone, so he knew that Alice wanted to treat them to a meal.

Seeing his brother turn Alice down so heartlessly, William roared in his heart, “Daniel, why did you turn her down? Are you trying to lose your wife?”

Alice felt a little disappointed. “You’re not free… I was just thinking about that seafood cafeteria…”

Although Freddie, who was standing beside her, could not hear Daniel’s answer, he knew from Alice’s reaction that someone must be pouting his lips right now.

Freddie raised his eyebrows and started to cause trouble.

He raised his voice and before Alice could finish her sentence, he said, “Since your husband isn’t free, let’s go for lunch together. I like that restaurant too.”

On the other end, Daniel was about to refuse with a long face. When he heard Freddie’s voice, he said without any hesitation, “Wait for me in the hotel parking lot. I’ll be there in 15 minutes.”

Hearing this, William immediately pursed his lips and tried not to laugh.

He

gave Freddie a thumbs-up in his heart.

He thought that Daniel could continue to be so proud, but who knew that he would not even hesitate for a second?

Alice, who had hung up the phone, didn’t realize what had just happened. Didn’t Daniel just say that he wasn’t going?

“Miss Doyle, your husband is jealous,” Freddie suddenly said.

Alice was stunned when she heard that. “How could that be? He said that he wouldn’t be jealous because of anyone.”

“Men always don’t mean what they say. Don’t believe what he says. It depends on what he does.

If you don’t believe me, bring me to lunch.” Freddie really wanted to see Daniel being tortured by jealousy, so he took the initiative to say that.

Hearing what Freddie said, Alice could not help but laugh. Why was Freddie kind of different from the rumors?

He was so gossipy.

As the two of them were talking, the engine of a car sounded by the roadside.

The man who said that he would arrive in fifteen minutes only took a few minutes to come.

Most importantly, he was in the company’s luxury car.

When Daniel got out of the car, he walked toward Alice with a frigid and arrogant expression.

When he saw that the distance between Freddie and Alice was less than half a meter, his deep eyes burst out with coldness.

“Daniel, did you borrow Mr. Kaur’s car again?” Alice looked at Dax who got out of the car to greet them and asked suspiciously.

Daniel nodded. His gaze lingered on the girl for a few seconds before he said, “Let’s go.”

After she got into the car, Freddie squeezed into the passenger seat. Alice quickly explained, “Mr. King helped a lot today. Let’s invite him along.”

“Okay.” Daniel nodded, but he didn’t look at Freddie at all.

Alice chose a seafood cafeteria run by an old lady that she was familiar with.

As soon as they got out of the car, the old ladies from the seafood cafeteria came over.

“Oh, Alice, you haven’t been here for a while. Are you busy with work?”

“I miss you so much.”

“This must be your boyfriend. You two really look like a lovely couple.” An old lady pointed at Freddie and smiled kindly. “You’ll definitely have beautiful children in the future.”

Upon hearing this, Daniel’s eyes darkened.

Did Freddie and Alice look like a couple?
