After being reborn, I make up my mind to stop chasing after my husband and daughter

Chapter 671

Edward froze for a moment, then his eyes suddenly met mine, filled with determination. “I always think things through before I act.”

Jared, swirling his wine glass, let out a mocking laugh. “I believe in your abilities, Mr. Jennings, and your resolve. But… are you sure you’ve really thought this through? Your real opponent isn’t out there.”

My breath caught at his words. ‘Can’t Jared just let us finish this meal in peace?‘

‘Does he really have to bring up Ryan right now?‘

Edward furrowed his brows, his voice quiet and serious. “Ryan is already married.”

Jared smirked. “Getting married doesn’t mean it’s over. We’re all guys here, right?”

Edward’s expression stiffened slightly.

My hand froze as I was picking up food. What did Jared mean by that?

‘Is he saying married folks are even more likely to mess around?‘ I wondered.

“Mr. Holcomb, why don’t you guys talk about work instead? Can we please change the subject?” I said, forcing a smile through clenched teeth as I tried to steer the conversation away.

Jared gave me a sullen look, his lips pressed into a thin line.

Edward looked like he didn’t want to get into it either, just gave a small smile.

Yvonne was just focused on eating, her dark eyes darting back and forth, as if trying to figure out what was going on.

Edward and Jared didn’t talk business. They were both quiet, barely eating, just drinking.
