Chapter 497

"Hey, Mr. Casper, I told Ms. Eliza you wanted to meet. I guess she'll come find you after dinner," Dillon said gently.

Casper seemed devoid of any expectation. His face was slightly cold as he glanced one more time at the man and woman in the hot pot restaurant before lifting a finger. "Let's head back." "Yes, sir."

The luxury car drove off.

Inside the restaurant, the man and woman were still deep in conversation.

Eliza didn't eat much. Most of the time, it was Manuel talking and her listening. He rarely talked about work, focusing instead on his family and their lives. He wanted her to understand him, to understand his family. "My parents are retired; they adore kids. If our baby ends up going to school in Oak Falls, they could help with the school runs."

"And when the baby gets older, they can help with homework too. You won't have to worry about a thing."

"Eliza, my family and I won't have any prejudices against you. You can totally relax; they'll only care about you."

"Eliza, Eliza, are you even listening?"

"Don't stress. My family is very inclusive. Plus, if we ever get married, we won't be living with my parents, so you won't have to feel any burden."

Eliza gave a small "Oh," and checked the time on her phone. "I'm done eating, how about you?"
