Chapter 408

"Mr. Reid, where are you going in the evening? Can't you take Vespera with you?" Calvert asked from the front.

Evening was supposed to be when couples went on dates, wasn't it? Shouldn't the two be heading out together?

Vespera immediately shot Calvert a sharp look and said, "Calvert, don't be ridiculous. I'm sure Mr. Reid has his reasons. He's meeting someone important. Obviously, it's a private matter."

Dominic went quiet for a few seconds. Then, he said, "Ms. Gildon is right. It's a very important meeting. It's not the kind of thing you bring someone else to."

Without thinking, Vespera muttered under her breath, "It's not that I wanted to go anyway."

Calvert froze. On the other hand, Gerard, sitting in the passenger seat, lowered his head and was suddenly invested in whatever was on his tablet.

Dominic closed his eyes to rest, while Vespera turned to stare out the window. Gerard thought, "They really aren't on speaking terms, huh?"
