Dear Sweetheart Chapter 282 Double Act
“Tsk, tsk. You’re the perfect example of hiding your true feelings,” Wyatt sneered. “Didn’t you say you were going to Norham? Eventually, you came here with Curtis instead to visit a certain someone.”
Curtis replied nonchalantly, “Wyatt, both of your listed companies have Theodore as your largest supplier. If he decides to stop supplying you someday, I’m sure it won’t take long for you to declare bankruptcy.”
Wyatt retracted his smile and poured a cup of coffee for Theodore quickly as he said in a flattering tone, “Have some coffee, Theodore! Hehe! Please excuse me for being ignorant and immature.”
However, Theodore didn’t even bother to respond to Wyatt.
Soon, their meal arrived and the whole table was laden with dishes, most of which were ordered by Wyatt as he was afraid Jessica would be hungry. After that, he diligently took some roast meat for her.
“Here, Babe. Try this roast meat.”
“Babe, try this delicious meatball spaghetti! I’ll feed you.”
“Babe, have a sip of this pear juice, and don’t choke on your food.”
“Babe…”
When the six of them were having dinner, they could only hear Wyatt addressing Jessica affectionately. Occasionally, he would also lean over to kiss her as well, completely ignoring the rest of them.
“Wyatt,” Curtis said indifferently. “If you don’t shut your mouth, I’ll make you shut up instead.”
Wyatt retorted, “You can do the same too. I wouldn’t mind…”
Before he could finish his sentence, Theodore’s hand went past Curtis’ back and grabbed Wyatt’s hair before slamming his face into the meatball spaghetti.
“Are you done talking?” asked Theodore.
The three women sitting across the table were laughing their heads off.

After she was done laughing, Jessica took out a tissue and gave it to Wyatt. “Use this to clean yourself up… Pfft! Haha! I’m sorry, Wyatt, but you look hilarious!”
Feeling aggrieved, Wyatt replied, “I’m doing this for the sake of you, Babe! How could you still laugh at me?”
As soon as he raised his head, Wyatt’s face was smothered in sticky gravy, making him look hilarious and foolish, which had Jessica laugh until tears streamed down her cheeks. Upon seeing her reaction, Wyatt felt as if he had been smacked a thousand times.
“Please excuse me, I have to take a phone call.” Suddenly, Jessica’s phone rang. She quickly glanced at the phone screen before grabbing it and hurrying away.
Rayna felt curious as she noticed Jessica’s nervous expression before the latter left.
Did something happen in the company?
At the same time, Curtis’ dark gaze lingered briefly on Jessica as well.
“Don’t you feel bored eating just like that, Mr. Xavier?” Seeing that Theodore hadn’t touched much of the food on his plate, Jasmine asked as she handed him a bottle of black pepper.
Theodore didn’t bother to look at her.
Jasmine then rested her chin on her hands as she looked at him and smiled. “Mr. Xavier, since we’ve dated before, we should at least be acquainted with each other. Can’t we at least be friends if we can’t be lovers?”
“I don’t think it’s necessary.” Theodore’s expression was grim as if it was pointless for him to say anything further.
Jasmine merely murmured in acknowledgment without getting mad at his response. She then continued to make small talk with Theodore. “You’re thirty-three years old, aren’t you, Mr. Xavier? I’m curious whether you’re married yet.”
“No comment.”
“That means you’re not.” Jasmine speculated before she continued to probe, “Not even an illegitimate child?”
Theodore was rendered speechless.
Jasmine shook her head as she glanced at him with a pitiful expression. “Mr. Xavier, it’s unusual for someone your age to not have a girlfriend or a child. Don’t you consider yourself a failure?”
“Theodore hasn’t mentioned anything, and you already know he doesn’t have a girlfriend or children?” Curtis looked at Jasmine amusingly. “I’m curious whether you were privy to his life in Norham over the last three years.”
Jasmine chuckled gently. “From the looks of it, it seems that he wasn’t doing that well. “
“I doubt so.” Curtis raised his brows and added, “I heard there were quite a number of female executives at Norham who admired Theodore and frequently asked him out to dinner.”
Stroking his chin, Curtis recalled, “I remember there was a 23-year-old female executive from Polayork asking Theodore out during Christmas two years ago, and he stayed out all night.”
He then kicked Wyatt’s leg underneath the table.
“Yes, that’s right! I remember that too!” Since Wyatt was particularly experienced in matters of the heart, as soon as he heard Curtis’ remarks along with a kick from that latter, he knew exactly what to say next.
Wyatt added cheerfully, “That female executive was really gorgeous! She had a tall nose, big eyes, and a perfect hourglass figure. After she spent Christmas together with Theodore, the female executive resigned a month later. Tsk, tsk! I wonder if it’s because she found out that she was pregnant and ran away with Theodore’s child?”
“I suppose so.” Curtis nodded in agreement. “That child should be around two years old, right?”
“Exactly!”
Both men put on a double act as they conversed between themselves.
Furrowing his eyebrows deeply, Theodore was about to say something when Jasmine stood up abruptly and snatched the glass of warm water in front of her, furiously splashing it on Theodore’s face.
“Fine, go look for your Polayork female executive, then!” she hissed bitterly.
With that, Jasmine grabbed her coat and left.
