Chapter 441
Corinne frowned. Even though Jason had the information she wanted, she still could not help. but hesitate a little.
Jason smiled. “Don’t worry. I won’t reveal your whereabouts to the Holden family and that’s including Jeremy.”
Corinne was a little taken aback. She had no reason to turn down his invitation anymore since he noticed her reservations in her
heart and gave her his promise that he would keep her
whereabouts a secret.
“Alright then. I know of this great little Asian restaurant so let’s go there. It’ll be my treat,” said Corinne. She was worried that she
would bump into someone she knew if Jason
who
was dressed so formally – were to bring her to some high-end restaurant.
It would be troublesome for her if she was involved in another scandal and that was why she
proposed the Asian restaurant. She knew it would be crowded at this time of the day and it would almost be close to impossible
for anyone from Jason’s and Jeremy’s circle of friends to
frequent such a place.
Besides, it would not look like the two of them were dating if they were found to be eating in such a lively atmosphere. It would
just look like they were two friends who were having a meal and catching up with each other. She really could not afford any
more scandal with the upper echelon of the society.
Jason looked at her slyly and seemed to have guessed her intention. He smiled happily and said, “Fine by me. Thanks for
buying!”
Corinne left her address with the gallery so that they could deliver the two Nellie Nymphaea paintings to Aaron’s place. After that,
she left the gallery with Jason and the two of them. drove off in his car. The restaurant Corinne chose was a very popular
barbecue restaurant in the city.
Once there, they could hear the many gasps coming from different women once they laid eyes on the handsome Jason. It was
as if they could not help but be attracted to his nobility but they did not dare to approach him for it was that same air of nobility
that made him seem very unapproachable.
Under the gaze of all those swooning women, the waiter brought Jason and Corinne to their table. Once seated, the waiter then
passed Corinne the menu so they could decide on what to
order.
Corinne ordered her usual and then passed the menu across to Jason. “Please order whatever you like, Kind Sir.”
‘So she has decided to use her nickname for me again.’ Jason simply smiled and ticked off quite several items on the menu, not
holding back on spending at all.
It did not seem like his first rodeo in this particular restaurant. He was at ease and knew where everything was. He didn’t even
need to ask any questions regarding the food at all.
Logically speaking, rich men like him rarely came to restaurants like this. Corinne would not be surprised if he did even know
what half of the food items on the menu were.
‘Why does he look like he has been here a thousand times before?’ Corinne wondered.
After Jason finished ordering, Corinne took over the menu to check what he ordered.
‘Stir-fried beef tripe, braised chicken feet, fish curry. He sure knows his food!’ thought Corinne.
She suddenly recalled the first time she came to this restaurant with Jeremy. His reaction was different from Jason’s. Although
he did not show it, Corinne could still tell that he was not used to the food being offered. To his credit, he did try for the sake of
making her happy.
Corinne and Jason passed the menu back to the waiter after they finished ordering. Jason then poured a glass of lemon water
for her before asking her casually, “Corinne, I heard out of Jeremy’s place a month ago. Does this mean the two of you have
separated?”
