His unwanted wife, the world’s coveted genius by Derk Blaylock

Chapter 257:

After finishing work, Belinda drove to Vera Villas to pick up Kenia, and together, they headed to the restaurant.

On the way, Kenia looked at Belinda with a curious expression.

“Belinda, why did this friend of yours suddenly decide to invite me for a meal? I don’t even know him,” she said, her tone tinged with confusion.

Belinda smiled and replied, “Grandma, Johnson is one of my closest friends, just like Bethany.

When I was in Chixdon, he helped me a lot.”

Kenia nodded thoughtfully, her expression softening. “Then we should definitely enjoy a good meal with him and thank him for taking care of you before,” she said, her tone warm and approving.

By the time they arrived at the restaurant and met Johnson, Kenia’s good impression of him had deepened.

Johnson’s handsome appearance, respectable demeanor, and warm enthusiasm only endeared him further to her.
