Chapter 257
Sylvia noticed Sherry’s gaze and asked curiously, “What’s wrong?” “N-Nothing.” Sherry snapped back
to her senses and looked at the menu. Not long after, Lloyd asked in a low voice, “Mr. Price, shall we
order some beer?”
Edmund shot him a look.
Harry slapped the back of Lloyd’s head. “Did you forget what Mr. Price said before?” Lloyd held his
head and pouted reluctantly.
Sylvia said to Edmund, “It’s really fine. You guys can order some beer if you want to drink”
Sherry was here anyway, so Sylvia was not worried that they would go wild after drinking. However,
Edmund said, “They’re not drinking. Just ignore them.” Harry grinned while Lloyd put on a bitter smile.

The hot grilled meat was soon served on the table. Sylvia had had dinner with them several times
already and felt familiar with them, so she picked up her cutlery and started eating. Edmund also
picked up his cutlery and ate politely, stealing glances at Sylvia from time to time.
Harry loved to brag and chatted with Harry for a while. They occasionally talked about Lush Heaven.
Sherry also joined in the conversation, so the meal was very lively.
Edmund told Harry to settle the bill and walked out with Sylvia and Sherry first.
Sylvia smiled and said to him, “Thanks for treating us, Edmund. It’ll be my treat next time.”
Edmund did not refuse. “Sure. We’ll have a feast next time.” Sylvia laughed. “No problem.” After saying
goodbye to him, she left with Sherry. When they were far away, Sherry asked in a low voice, “Syl, when
did you get so close to Edmund?”
Sylvia replied, “He likes to collect paintings. Recently, he has been participating in the activities held by
the Art Association and even went to see an exhibition held by a friend of mine, so I got to know him
better.” Sherry secretly clicked her tongue. Edmund did not look like the type who had an appreciation
for the arts at all. He must have taken a liking to Sylvia. Furthermore, it was obviously different from
what he had with other women before. He was
probably serious about Sylvia. However, Sylvia did not notice Edmund’s interest in her.
Sherry was conflicted. Edmund was not a good person, but Sylvia had been single for so many years.
It was time for her to find a partner. She thought, ‘Let’s just wait and see.’ Meanwhile, outside the grill,
Edmund leaned against a wall, looking with curved eyes while smiling at Sylvia and Sherry, who had
walked away. Lloyd and Harry quickly came out. Lloyd could not help but ask, “Mr. Price, are we not
allowed to drink as long as we have dinner with Ms. Ross?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHarry glared at him. “What are you thinking? We’ll be able to drink after Ms. Ross gets together with
Mr. Price.”
“When will that be?” Lloyd was depressed. “Mr. Price, why are you going through all this trouble? Can’t
you just snatch her away?”
Whack!
Edmund directly slapped him on the head. He glared at Lloyd fiercely. “Lil Syl is different from other
women. I’ll twist your neck if you say that again.”
“Yes, yes, I understand. I won’t say it again.” Lloyd quickly held his head and took a few steps back
Harry looked at Edmund’s expression and did not dare to say anything either. Then, Edmund said, “Go
and get Ned.” “Mr. Price, why are you asking for Ned?” “Isn’t he the best at planning special occasions?
I want to confess to Lil Syl. Tell him to arrange for a venue and decorate it within two days.” Edmund
smirked as he spoke. He really could not wait to be with Sylvia.
