Chapter 389

Glancing at the two children sitting across from him, Stephen immediately realized what Lester had done. He had used the kids as an excuse to ask Tessa out again.

"It's alright, Tessa. I understand you're feeling shy about it. Stephen, let's just go," Marissa said as she reached out to tug Stephen's sleeve.

Stephen quickly moved to the side, avoiding her touch. Then, he said coldly, "Since Ms. Yates and Mr. Cooper aren't on a date, then I suppose you two won't mind if we join you, right?

"We're all friends here, and it's been a while since I last saw Ms. Yates. This is a good opportunity for us to catch up on those cases we've delegated to your firm."

Marissa's expression stiffened.

Lester chuckled softly and said, "Mr. Jacobson, I don't think this is a good time. After all, Ms. Yates and I have the two kids with us."

Stephen immediately turned to Seline and offered her a warm smile. "Seline, would you mind if I sit here and join you all?"

Seline recognized Stephen as she used to see him as her brother-in-law. Besides, he had always treated her well. He would buy her a lot of toys, so of course she didn't mind him joining them.
