Chapter 2948 Something Hidden

The central seat and flanking chairs remained unoccupied, a testament to Isambard's thorough planning. Not only had he briefed the hotel staff in advance, but he'd also provided them with a photo of Matthew, along with clear instructions to alert him upon the prince's arrival. The hotel manager, familiar with Matthew's renown due to his elixir's popularity in Seraphis, promptly recognized him from television appearances. Thus, he wasted no time in contacting Isambard upon spotting Matthew.

This explained the vacant seats that met Matthew's gaze, evoking a wry smile. Isambard had orchestrated everything meticulously.

Yet, alongside his acknowledgment, a tinge of curiosity stirred within Matthew. What was the purpose of this dinner invitation, and what awaited them as the surprise?

Seated at the table, Matthew and his companions watched as Isambard poured wine for them with a warm smile, surprising the Stubbers with his uncharacteristic deference towards the young man.

The sight left them astonished; accustomed to Isambard's demeanor, they found it unexpected to witness such a display of servility towards someone of Matthew's youth. While such respect might be customary for an elder, it seemed out of place for a young man like Matthew.
