Chapter 8 Who Was Really Showing Off?


    "Of course he had never eaten this kind of dishes. The best he could get in his life was ordinary meals.


    Look at Dolcie, getting so skinny after marrying him."


    In fact, Logan didn''t like to eat western food either, but he wanted to show off, which was why he chose


    here.


    Normal person wouldn''t know how to order food in here.


    By then, he could take over the menu calmly, order a few dishes elegantly and talked a bit about the


    western civilization that he learned from the Inte, which made others look highly on him.


    What''s more, he even learned some simple French in order to show off in front of Dolcie, who he really


    wanted to pursue. And he did spend some time in learning.


    Logan talked to the French waitress in French.


    Jackson thought that Logan knew how to speak French. But to his surprise, Logan changed back to


    speak Mandarin while ordering food.


    Dolcie smiled and said, "Logan, I don''t know that you can speak French."


    "It''s nothing, just some basics." Logan was proud in his heart. As he expected, he could win the


    affection of thedy by eating in this high-end restaurant.


    "Logan, you''re too humble. You must be that kind of person that often visits upper-ss ces. You


    must have passed French IELTS ." Martha said with a big smile.


    Jackson almostughed, he had never heard of suchnguage test. Martha was really trying her best


    to brag about Logan.


    "I honestly think that Mr. Harper''s French is just so-so, not fluent at all. His level isparable to a


    three-year-old kid."


    After hearing Jackson''s words, everyone was shocked for a second. Logan showed his contempt and


    said: "It sounds like that Mr. Owen is pretty good at French."


    Jackson nodded, "Yeah, much better than you."


    Martha was unhappy with what he said. She scolded, "Enough, Jackson! You know French? You''re just


    a househusband, probably learning from the TV at most. Don''t you disgrace us!"


    Dolcie was ufortable in her heart. She brought Jackson with her was to show that she was


    already married and tried to refuse Logan''s intention. But now all her family members were on the side


    of Logan, isting Jacksonpletely.


    "Mom, don''t say that."


    "Okay, let''s order."


    Logan didn''t want to be regarded as narrow-minded. Therefore, he decided to order a few dishes and


    two bottles of Romani Conti red wine as well.


    After that, Logan ordered for Martha and Serena.


    "Dolcie, what would you like to eat?"


    "Whatever." Dolcie answered coldly.


    "Mr. Owen, I don''t know your taste, you''d better order for yourself."


    As Logan talked, he handed over the menu to Jackson. He was already gloating in his heart. He


    thought that Jackson must have never eaten any standard French meals and wouldn''t know how to


    order at all.


    Jackson nced at the French waitress and spoke in perfectly fluent French: "Miss, I want a Parisian


    cabbage, fried scallops with foie gras, and marjoram salmon rolls."


    The French waitress''s eyes twinkled and said incredulously: "Sir, you...you speak French? Your French


    is very fluent, with a pure Parisian ent."


    After all, there weren''t many people in here that could speak French, especially as fluent as Jackson.


    Dolcie was also surprised, Jackson could speak French? And so fluent?


    Even Martha and Serena were stunned.


    Jackson smiled and kept speaking in French: "Miss, judging from your ent, you should be born in


    Calvados."


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    Jackson''s tone was calm and casual, as if he was making a normal conversation in Mandarin. He


    started a conversation with the French waitress.


    Logan waspletely lost, looking at Jackson conversing with the French waitress, but he had no idea


    what they were saying at all.


    What the heck, this garbage knew how to speak French?


    He thought that Jackson was just talking some nonsense, but as he caught sight of the excitement on


    the face of that waitress, he realized that Jackson was not messing around. He did know French, and


    was really good at it.


    Dolcie was very surprised. She didn''t expect her househusband, who was messy all the time, actually


    possessed some practical skills.


    "Oh my God! You''re so amazing! You could notice that?! You''re right, I am from Calvados."


    The French waitress was so excited that her little face blushed, she asked Jackson kindly: "Sir, Have


    you ever been to my hometown?"


    "Once, Calvados was known as the vige on the damp in, and it was a very beautiful ce."


    Jackson''s fluent French and his polite gentleman-like attitude charmed the waitress soon.


    In fact, thenguages Jackson could speak were more than just French. After all, he went abroad at


    the age of ten and had travelled different ces in the world to found the Dragon Pce.


    Language was merely a way for him tomunicate.


    The waitress came close to Jackson and whispered in his ear: "Sir, you are the most gentleman-like


    Chinese I have ever met, can I have your phone number?"


    The Frenchdies were romantic, the reason why she wanted Jackson''s phone number was apparent.


    Jackson rejected with a smile, and spoke in Mandarin, "I''m sorry, but I am already married."


    The French girl looked at Dolcie enviously, who sat next to Jackson.


    At this moment, Dolcie changed her opinion on Jackson. This man was indeed good at one thing no


    matter what others said about him.


    But to be honest, she had never attempted to learn more about this man ever since they knew each


    other.


    Dolcie couldn''t help thinking that whether he was hiding something from her. She began to doubt more


    as she thought of her grandfather forcing her to marry this man.


    Logan remained calm and silent, pretending to understand the conversation between Jackson and the


    waitress. He even nodded constantly to show that he could understand. But he felt puzzled inside.


    Didn''t they say that Dolcie''s husband was a useless garbage, why was he so different from the rumor.


    At this moment, Martha mumbled disdainfully, "What, why is it so surprising. If I stay at home all the


    time and do nothing, I can also learn fewnguages. Logan, you wouldn''t be annoyed by such trivial


    thing, right?"


    "Logan, don''t you have something to tell Dolcie? We are all witnesses, just say it now." Serena said.


    Logan also considered this to be a great opportunity, so he smiled and said:


    "Dolcie, although I have married once, I would cherish a rtionship more because of the divorce. An


    unhappy marriage will notst long. I think I have the right to pursue you."


    This was…an explicit love confession.
