The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 480 Drunken Argument

Candice took a deep breath, the awkward atmosphere was suffocating.

Thankfully, Archibald had a decent personality. He just looked at Candice calmly, not thinking she was being rude or anything.

"I'm Archibald, the guy your dad set you up with."

Candice forced a smile, about to respond, but Archibald quickly added, "Honestly, I find these setups pretty awkward too, but since we're here, why don't we try to chat?

"Even if it's just a simple meal, we're already here, might as well enjoy the nice environment."

Archibald's gentlemanly demeanor made Candice relax a bit. She pressed her lips together and nodded, "Sure, I haven't eaten here before! The place looks nice, let's give

it a try!"

With that, they exchanged a smile and walked towards the restaurant.

As they entered, the familiar aroma of creamy mushroom soup hit them, and Candice exclaimed excitedly, "Oh my gosh, I've missed this dish so much!"

Archibald noticed and smiled slightly, responding softly, "Weren't you abroad before? You should have had plenty of it there!"

Hearing this, Candice turned her head, staring at Archibald with an intense gaze that made him a bit uneasy.

Suddenly, she smiled mischievously, tilting her head. "Seems like you know me well!" Archibald felt a bit awkward, unsure of how to respond.

How should he explain to Candice?

Archibald didn't want her to think he was only interested in her because of her family's background.

But Candice would definitely think that.

Not just because he invited her, but also because of what he said earlier.

He knew her family was well-off, so she would think he had an ulterior motive. They sat down by the window.
