Chapter 126 Is this it?
"We aren't familiar now, but won't we become familiar slowly?" Greg dismissed her words and continued driving.
Evelyn didn't say anything more and didn't care Greg either. She never thought that she would become close to him.
The car soon arrived at the restaurant, and the two walked in together.
Todd got out of the car and looked surprised as he saw them walking into the restaurant.
Didn't the CEO say that he was going to have dinner with Evelyn tonight? Why didn't he see him, but saw Evelyn with another man?
He decided to call Dermot after a while.
Pouring a drink, Greg smiled at Evelyn and asked, "Would you like a drink?"
"I don't drink."
Although Evelyn was confident in her abilities, after the last incident, she understood that having skills wasn't everything, so she still needed to be cautious when outside.
Greg didn't insist and got her a glass of non-alcoholic beverage. Evelyn placed it on the table without any intention of drinking it.
"Evelyn, you treat me like a bad guy, don't you?" Greg chuckled, wondering if he appeared that bad.
However, Evelyn, who was Marina, replied, "Greg, please don't overthink it. It's just a habit of mine. I hope you can understand."
"I understand, I understand."
Tonight, Evelyn agreed to have dinner with Greg not just for the sake of eating. She asked, "Greg, what do you want to gain from me?"
Greg was surprised but then laughed, "Can't I just make a friend?"
"Of course." Evelyn said, but her gaze became sharp in an instant. "But I don't think Greg is lacking in friends."
"Evelyn..."
"Greg, if you want to make friends, then how about being sincere? Don't treat me like a fool," Evelyn interrupted him, looking at Greg.
Having grown up in the Hamilton Family, where he was always flattered, Greg experienced this kind of situation for the first time. Being looked at like this by Evelyn made him feel guilty...
He coughed to ease the awkwardness before slowly speaking, "it's my father who hopes I can befriend you. He has a very good impression of you."
"Just like that?" Evelyn raised an eyebrow, skeptical.
"Just like that."
Greg said, "Maybe it's because you saved his life. He likes you and even hopes that I can pursue you, so... you know."
This turn of events was unexpected. Evelyn always felt that the Hamilton Family had ulterior motives, so she was wary of them. But now it seemed that she had misunderstood.
She realized that her grandfather had influenced her a lot. She just worried that someone might harm her.
Taking a deep breath, she smiled and said, "I see, Greg, you should have said this earlier to avoid misunderstandings."
"It's not that easy. the old man is a bit too funny." If this got out, everyone would think Grandpa Doyle was anxious to find him a wife.
Evelyn chuckled, picked up her wine glass, and said, "I toast to you, as an apology for my previous offense."
She believed Greg', not just because her grandfather’s opinion on the Hamilton Family, but because over the past few days of getting to know him, Greg's character had proven to be decent.
"It's okay, I understand." Greg lifted his wine glass. In a good mood, it seemed he had gained Evelyn's trust.
when dealing with intelligent people, it was best to be honest and straightforward.
