Chapter 103- Sounds so sexy
After finishing the call with Jacob, Dave turned to Morrison with a smile.
"Jacob said he’s hosting a dinner tomorrow," Dave explained. "Wants to introduce you to some people."
But Morrison didn’t look excited. In fact, he looked a little... off.
Dave frowned. "Didn’t you say you were interested in meeting them? This is a great chance—"
"I know," Morrison cut in, his tone polite but distant. He forced a faint smile. "I guess I’m just tired from all the driving today. I’ll be fine after a good night’s rest."
Dave didn’t press further. He nodded, accepting the excuse, though he couldn’t quite figure out what had changed.
Meanwhile, Lilian had made her stance crystal clear.
"Dave, I’m begging you," she said firmly. "Don’t set me up with anyone. I’m not in the mood for love—or anything like that."
She didn’t say it out loud, but deep inside, she had already come to terms with what her heart truly wanted. And that made it impossible to entertain the idea of meeting other men. It would be unfair—to her, to Morrison, and to whoever was being introduced.
Dave chuckled, trying to ease the tension. "Relax. It’s not a blind date. Just a casual dinner, some friendly introductions. Don’t take it too seriously."
But Lilian had already lost her appetite. She barely touched her food before standing up and coaxing little Emma Washington to come play with her. Laurent soon followed them, leaving the dining table behind.
Only Morrison and Dave remained, quietly sipping their drinks.
