Chapter 494

Being someone who had seen much of life, Leo instantly snapped back after just a moment of embarrassment.

“Argh. Look at me. How did I forget about this? Oh, yeah. You guys were the closest back in the days.

Hahaha. This is great. A reunion with our classmates. It’s good that we can all sit here and talk together like this. Come on, President Davis. Please take a seat. Matthew, Ed, you guys should sit with President Davis,” Leo said as he arranged the seating.

When the others glared at Matthew, reluctance and jealousy were visible in their gazes.

In their opinion, Matthew was just some useless toilet cleaner. How could he be so close with Julian?

Sitting still in his seat, Matthew said slowly, “Forget about the main seat. Didn’t you guys say that this is the most suitable place for me? Let’s just stay this way. It’s quite troublesome to switch seats.

Otherwise, people would think that we’re part of your squad.”

Upon hearing Matthew’s mockery, Julian couldn’t help laughing.

Leo and the others were flushing. Matthew managed to scold all of them with just that one sentence.

However, because Julian was still sitting by the side, they didn’t dare to rebuke him.

“Since Matthew doesn’t want to, why don’t you come to sit over here, President Davis?” Leo said.

Waving his hand, Julian rejected. “It’s okay. I prefer to sit with Matthew and Ed. It’s just dinner. You can still eat no matter where you sit.”

After he finished talking, Julian went and sat beside Matthew.

Just like that, Julian and Ed were sitting on either side of Matthew.

The crowd was surprised by the situation.

No matter how close Julian was to Matthew and Ed, he should have been the one sitting in the middle.

But, what was happening now? Everyone couldn’t help but wonder why he gave the center seat to Matthew and sat beside him.

Why is Julian treating Matthew so nicely?

Although there were doubts, Leo had no choice but to get everyone back to their seats.

As for Elaine, she had gone and sat beside Julian shamelessly because Nicole was leaning on Matthew, refusing to leave him now.

After having several drinks, Leo lifted his wine glass and went to Julian to start flattering him.

However, Julian didn’t pay attention to him but continued to talk to Matthew and Ed.

In the meantime, Nicole was lying in Matthew’s arms. From time to time, she asked, “Uncle Larson, when is Auntie Cunningham on leave? She promised to take me to swim!”

“Uncle Larson, can my puppy swim with me too?”

“Uncle Larson, does Auntie Cunningham know how to plait me a braid?”

Looking at the situation, Grace was extremely envious. Isn’t the little girl being too kind to Matthew?

With Julian’s current net worth, it might not be easy for me to please him.

However, if I can please his daughter, I might be able to earn some benefits in the future.

At the opportune time, Grace leaned over. “Do you like to swim, Nicole? Why don’t you follow me? I can bring you to swim anytime you want. I know the staff from a water park. You can play whatever you want.”

Glancing at Grace, Nicole shook her head. “No. Daddy says I cannot go to crowded places. I cannot run around since my body hasn’t recovered yet.”

Grace was surprised. “When Matthew brought you swimming, wasn’t it a crowded place too?”

“Who said that?” Nicole instantly protested. “No one uses the swimming pool at Uncle Larson’s house!

It’s just me and Auntie Cunningham. It’s fun.”

Everyone at the scene was shocked. Leo then said in bewilderment, “W-What swimming pool in the house? He has a swimming pool at home?”

How many people can afford a swimming pool at home, especially in a place like Eastcliff?

A person like that is definitely wealthy!

“Nicole, did you make a mistake?” Grace looked incredulous.

“It’s just a bathtub in his house, right?”
