Chapter 304 Coordinated Performance
Pushing open the door of the private room, a gust of cold wind blew in. Mnie felt herself sobering up.
She suddenly thought of something.N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.
Luis wouldn''t have invited her and Quincy as third wheelers for no reason. Could it be that he sensed something unusual
between her and Jeffrey, so he was testing the waters?
From the Angle family’s centennial celebration to the vast mountain racecourse, wherever Luis paid attention, Jeffrey was there
protecting her. Upon careful consideration, this was very likely Luis’s intention.
If he found out that there was more than met the eye between Jeffrey and her, Luis might have other ns. If he was determined
to have his daughter marry into the Morgans, he might secretly deal with her.
Having figured this out, Mnie’s heart suddenly felt less heavy. Leaning against the door, she took a moment to collect herself
before turning to go back. Just as she reached out to push the door, it opened from the inside.
Mnie was startled. She unexpectedly ran into Jeffrey, who was also standing by the door.
“You...?” They both asked in unison.
“President Morgan, please-” Mnie quickly reacted and gave way to Jeffrey, maintaining a calm demeanor.
Jeffrey pursed his lips. He had been sitting ufortably in the private room for a few minutes, intending toe out to exin
things to her. Luis seemed to have some ulterior motives tonight, and he didn’t want her
to fall into Luis’s trap.
Unexpectedly, she returned so quickly, leaving him no choice but to go to the restroom to make it look natural...
Just now, when Mnie went out, Jeffrey quickly found an excuse to leave. Due to this, Luis had some suspicions, but now
Mnie suddenly came back. She couldn’t have had time to meet Jeffrey outside. Luis
was now puzzled.
After some casual conversation, Jeffrey returned. He took less time than Mnie.
“President Morgan, how do you know Miss Mnie and Mr. Quicksilver? | noticed that you. and Miss Mnie seemed to be
familiar with each other during the Angle family’s centennial celebration,” Luis couldn’t help but
ask.
Mnie blinked and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. A cold smile yed on her lips. It seemed that... her guess was
correct.
Before Jeffrey could speak, Mnie answered pre-emptively, “Before | entered Jones Enterprise, | ran a small
company myself and once bid for a project of Morgan Group. That''s how | had the pleasure of getting to know President Morgan.
Otherwise, how could someone like President Morgan, a high-profile figure, be acquainted
with us?”
“Cough!” Jeffrey was just about to take a sip of water, and identally choked.
“President Morgan has high standards for himself, and his management style is effective. He is a benchmark

and said, “I also propose a toast to President Morgan. | want to learn more from you!”
Jeffrey was stunned for two seconds. Just as he was about to pick up the ss, the articte woman across
from him spoke again.
“Oh. | forgot. President Morgan rarely epts toasts from others. I''ll drink the wine myself, then.” After that, she downed the
ss of wine.
Setting down the ss, Mnie’s eyes shed as she deliberately looked at I on the opposite side. “Miss Romero, you are
lucky. President Morgan drank a sip, even if it’s just water.”
After that, she sat down. Jeffrey''s expression becameplicated as he looked at Mnie.
“Is that so?” When I, who was inexperienced, heard Mnie say this, she couldn’t contain her excitement. “I thought | was too
young and childish, and President Morgan might not like it...”
“How could that be?” Mnie immediately continued, “President Morgan, after being in the business world for so many years,
has seen through human nature. What he likes the most is the innocence of those who don’t understand the ways of the world.
Someone like you, Miss Romero. Isn’t that right, Mr. Quicksilver?”
Quincy, who was suddenly cued, could only vaguely respond. “Yes, yes...”
I was overjoyed, her face blushing. She stared at Jeffrey, and Jeffrey pursed his lips. He decided to let this
go for now.
After a brief awkwardness, Jeffrey guessed that Mnie already had other ns. Since that was the case, he had to cooperate
with the performance and not spoil her show.
Finally, the awkward dinner ended.
Everyone left the restaurant, all deep in their thoughts. There was a bit of rain outside, so it was cold and the
road was slippery.
Luis was on the phone all the time, and I had no one to rely on. She deliberately took the opportunity to walk beside Jeffrey.
She was wearing high heels so had some difficulty with walking. She asionally pulled on Jeffrey’s sleeve, appearing cute,
lovely, and ambiguous.
Mnie nced coldly at the scene. She knew this was all part of her n, but Jeffrey seemed to be cooperating too much.
Mnie thought she wouldn''t care, but she couldn’t help but watch their interaction. It didn’t take long for I to identally step
into a puddle of water, and she fell into Jeffrey’s arms. She made a few flirtatious sounds, seeming to have sprained her foot, and
thanked him tearfully.
Jeffrey didn’t say anything, his deep eyes slowly looking at Mnie. He saw a sh of coldness in her eyes.
She seemed furious.
He quickly signaled William to take I to the car. When he turned back around, he saw that Mnie had already gotten into the
car. He could only wait for William toe back.
In the car, Quincy asked in confusion, “Miss Mnie, at the dinner today... Did you really want to help Miss

“Do you think they''re a good match?” Mnie questioned him instead.

“It''s quite a match, especially in terms of background. However, | wouldn’t dare specte what his preferences are.”
The phrase “quite a match” caused a slight ripple in Mnie’s calm heart for a moment. At this moment, the car suddenly shook
violently. The driver said anxiously, “What does the car behind want to do?”
Mnie looked out the window. A car behind them on the right was rapidly approaching them with a menacing momentum!
