Masked In Nobility: Secrets Of Mrs. Chavez by Selina Gorges

Jeremiah put his food aside. Without even looking up, he said coldly, “Uh–hum.”

The waiter didn’t know what he meant. Since Jeremiah looked too intimidating, he dared not ask him again. He looked at Andrew as if asking for help!

The waiter remembered that Jeremiah, Yvette and Andrew had come here together last time. Jeremiah and Yvette both looked cold and unapproachable, though very attractive. He fell anxious and dared not ask too many questions.

Moreover, the person requesting to see Jeremiah was the mayor of Seacrity, who frequently appeared on news channels. Even the mayor had to send someone to inquire if Jeremiah was available, leaving the waiter almost too intimidated to guess Jeremiah’s identity.

Seeing the waiter’s pleading look, Andrew decided to respond on Jeremiah’s behalf. He felt like he might as well be asking Jeremiah for a paycheck at this rate.

Jeremiah is available. Have him come over.” Andrew said.

The waiter finally breathed a sigh of relief. He had been worried that if Jeremiah refused, the mayor might direct his frustration at him.

After the waiter left, Andrew complained to Jeremiah, Jeremiah, could you be a bit more approachable? Can’t you see you scared the waiter so much that he was afraid to speak?”

Jeremiah gave him a glance and continued eating with his usual limpassive expression. Andrew could only give up.

Bonnie, noticing Andrew’s discomfort, snickered quietly to herself. When Andrew caught her, she flashed him a teasing smile. Frustrated, Andrew could only vent his irritation on his food. He hadn’t expected that even Bonnie had found an opportunity to mock him.
