Chapter 324

Tessa only saw the text Lester had sent her over WhatsApp 30 minutes ago when she returned to her room.

He had texted her, asking, "Are you home, Ms. Yates?"

Tessa replied, "Yes, I'm home. Do you have something to discuss?"

Lester said, "Are you up for a call?"

Tessa typed out a quick response. "Sure."

Lester called her the very next second.

"What's the matter, Mr. Cooper?" Tessa asked.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Yates. I didn't know that my aunt would invite so many people over

for dinner. She said she wanted to treat you to dinner for finding Cassie at the park. That's why she invited me as well. She didn't breathe a word about inviting my grandparents as well. I'm so sorry." He sounded apologetic.

Tessa huffed in amusement. "And here I thought it was something serious. It's fine. Don't worry about it. I don't have social anxiety."

Lester still felt somewhat embarrassed. "I'm just worried that you'd be scared. After all, my aunt could be a bit overbearing sometimes. My parents have been living abroad these few years, so my aunt and the others have been overly worried about my lack of interest in romance.

"She's been setting me up on so many blind dates that I can barely breathe. She probably misunderstood our relationship ever since she saw you with me. I've talked to her about it, but it doesn't seem like she will ever listen to me."

Tessa blinked at his verbal vomit. That said, she had no idea that Lyanna was harboring such thoughts.
