The Indifferent Ex-Husband Heartstrings in the Mall of Fate

Chapter 571

Brandon's gaze paused for a brief moment.

"What's up, Mr. Crawley?"

Noticing Brandon staring blankly at the hospital, Harvey Ferber furrowed his brows and asked.

"It's nothing." With a cool reply, Brandon shifted his gaze back to Harvey Ferber, "Did Mr. Ferber just arrive in Zenitha?"

"Yes, just hit the West district," Harvey Ferber said with a smile, "The cruise ship is temporarily docked at the port, having applied for a 12-hour layover. Everything's a bit rushed, so I hope you don't mind the short notice, Mr. Crawley."

"It's all good." Brandon's voice remained cool, "Are you here on vacation, Mr. Ferber?"

The smile on Harvey Ferber's lips slowly faded, and his eyes cooled down too.

"Not really."

His voice was also muted, dropping the polite business facade and instead carrying an air of enigmatic distance, even a touch of chilliness.

An oddly familiar chilliness.

Brandon was reminded of the time when Sophia left him and was nowhere to be found, and when Kent asked about his personal matters, he received the same treatment. He couldn't help but take another glance at Harvey Ferber.

Harvey Ferber had already concealed the momentary display of genuine emotion, his handsome face adopting a mask-like expression once more. With a smile, he gestured towards the scenic restaurant's private room: "Mr. Crawley, right this way, please."

"Thank you." Brandon reciprocated the politeness and followed his lead to take a seat in the private room.

When the menu was presented, Harvey Ferber brought the conversation back to the dock: "How come I've never heard about Starlight Group planning to expand into maritime shipping before?"
