My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 1143

After that shocking speech, he still remembered to put some shrimp into my gaping mouth.

Awkwardness returned to the dinner table while the waitstaff unobtrusively served our meal. Sebastian probably out of guilt gave us all a treat. Then again, he was the host of this dinner. After all, the Milton Group was the party in charge of the project.

Throughout dinner, I was most uncomfortable. Irvin kept sending over dishes from his side of the table while Hendrix kept stuffing food into my mouth. He was probably hoping that I would not have the spare time to eat the food given by anyone other than him.

While I stuffed my face, I had to endure Andrea's ice-cold gaze, as well as Rowane's look of disdain.

Finally, the meal was over. Irvin looked at me and said, "Arianna, where are you staying? You ate too much today. Why don't we go out for a walk to digest the food?"

I pressed my lips together and shook my head. "No, I..."

"As husband and wife, we have other things to deal with tonight. Thank you, Mr. Granger, for your kindness." Hendrix answered for us then took my hand and dragged me away.

Although Irvin was displeased, he did not say anything further.
