Chapter 258 Do You Have a Boyfriend? (Extra)
As soon as Evelyn entered the private room, she immediately spotted Adrian.
Adrian sat casually, engaged in a lively conversation with Joseph’s business partner,
Edward nc.
Edward and Adrian’s grandfather are both French, and the Moxley family’s Runte Group has its
headquarters in France.
Apart from these recent years, the Moxley family had primarily resided in France. Adrian’s grandfather
and Edward’s family have been close friends for generations.”
Edward and Adrian had a long-awaited reunion. Just moments ago, Edward was outside
making a phone call when he happened to bump into Adrian.
Meeting an old friend in a foreignnd, this feeling is truly heartwarming.
Edward thought that this coincidence was truly marvelous. Without any hesitation, he immediately
brought Adrian to the private room.
After seeking Joseph’s opinion, he invited Adrian to stay and have dinner with them.
There’s no need to discuss the coboration with Joseph any further, as we’ve basically
settled everything beforehand.
Eating together with several people doesn’t have much of an impact.
As soon as Evelyn entered, she heard Edward excitedly speaking in French, “Moxley, we truly are
destined to meet. How do they say it in America? F-fate will bring…”
Behind him, the English trantor quickly whispered, “Fate brings people together
from afar.”
Evelyn couldn’t help herself and almost burst outughing with a “pfft” sound.
Thinking about how she was still Joseph’s secretary, she forcefully held back herughter.
Adrian’s brow twitched as he looked up and nced toward the doorway.
It’s like looking at Evelyn, but also not quite.
Immediately, he looked speechlessly at the serious trantor behind Edward, “Where
did you find this trantor?”
Edward didn’t catch the problem and proudly replied, “Well, that’s a long story. I put in a lot of effort to
get this trantor…”
Adrian didn’t want to hear him borate on his experience of being deceived, so he interrupted him.
“It’s a long story, we can talk about itter. The trantor is doing a great job, but let’s try to use them
less in the future. You guys go ahead and discuss business, don’t worry about me.”
Edward nodded in agreement, “You’re right. My trantor skills are good, so I should. have a sense
of…”
Behind him, the trantor once again reminded him, “Sense of pride and dignity.”
Evelyn tried hard to hold back herughter.
She held back her emotions and sat down with Joseph.
Edward stood up and warmly invited Joseph to take the main seat, while he sat down
beside him.
Evelyn greeted Edward politely, and with a face that showed she didn’t recognize him, she also greeted
Adrian, “Mr. Moxley.”
Adrian didn’t make things difficult for her either. After a brief exchange, he continued to drink and y
with his phone.
Evelyn secretly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that today might really just be a
coincidence.
Adrian happened to be nearby and was called over by Edward.
After all, with his personality, he must frequent ces for eating, drinking, and having fun.
Joseph and Edward were discussing business while eating. In this kind of situation, where a meal is
used as an opportunity to sign a coboration agreement, no one really focuses on the food itself.
Evelyn is now past her first three months of pregnancy, and pregnancy-rted
symptoms such as morning sickness have disappeared.
Feeling better physically, and my appetite has improved recently.
She looked at the table full of dishes, each with a perfectbination of color, aroma, and taste, and
couldn’t help but feel excited.
But she only dared to eat a small bowl of rice with a little bit of vegetables, not daring to
eat any more.
Joseph casually chatted about business while eating and drinking, but in reality, his entire focus was on
the deal he was going to sign today.
Although the basic terms have been agreed upon, this deal cannot be considered
finalized until the contract is smoothly signed and the partnership is confirmed.
The more it approaches the final moment, the less room there is for even the slightest
negligence.
Evelyn put down her chopsticks, indicating that she was full, and listened attentively to
the conversation between Joseph and Edward.
She had to listen carefully to every word, so that when Joseph might ask her somethingter, or ask
her to do something, she could respond immediately.
Sure enough, as the two bosses were chatting andughing, Joseph casually ced his wine ss on
the table and tapped his fingertips on the surface.
Evelyn quickly opened the briefcase beside her, revealing more than ten documents inside. She pulled
out one of the reports and handed it over.
While still chatting with Edward, Joseph didn’t even nce at Evelyn as he swiftly took
the documents from her hands.
As if it was destined, the document was waiting for him by his side.
After handing over the document, he smiled and handed it back to Edward. “I’m not bragging, the
do we have that I could deceive you with something
like this?”
Edward took the report and read it with rity and focus.
After looking at it, he smiled at Adrian and said, “Look at him, carrying the report with him everywhere. I
was just thinking of making a joke to scare him a little.”
Adrian didn’t join in the conversation, as he had no interest in getting involved with these hypocritical
businessmen, whose friendly manners concealed their deceitful intentions in their roundabout
discussions.
Edward just wanted to pick a fight and take advantage of thest moment to push the price down, in
order to secure the greatest benefit for himself.
Edward and Joseph reached an agreement and signed the contract to confirm their coboration.
Adrian was ying with his phone, leaning against the seat.
He pretended to browse through his phone, but the screen disyed the camera
interface.
Casually holding the phone at an angle, the camera was perfectly aligned with Evelyn
on the other side.
Evelyn didn’t even notice how nervous she was bing, her face serious and stern.
As Adrian continued to watch, he suddenly couldn’t help but burst intoughter.
Is Joseph really that terrifying, to the point that it makes her feel so frightened every
time?
Heughed, and everyone in the private room turned to look at him in unison.
Evelyn looked at him with a hint of disdain in her eyes.
Adrian coughed awkwardly and said, “Sorry, I just came across a funny video. You guys continue
chatting, I promise I won’t make any more noise.”
Edward turned to look as well, curious, “What video is so funny?”
Upon seeing this, he discovered a whole new world. “Are you taking pictures of Ms.
Moore with Mr. ck?”
Adrian immediately put away his phone, “What do you mean ‘take a picture of her’? Who took a picture
of her? I just finished watching a video, and identally hit the camera when I closed the app.”
At this moment, Edward had finished discussing business, and his conversation truly
became more rxed.
He nced at Evelyn and chuckled, “But I must admit, it’s a bit embarrassing to say, Ms. Moore, the
moment I firstid eyes on you, I felt that you were truly special and
captivating.
Do you know if Ms. Moore has a boyfriend? Is there a chance for me to be friends with you?”

Evelyn hadn’t yet recovered from her recent bout of anxiety, and was momentarily caught off guard by
the sudden remark.
Edward said earnestly, “Ms. Moore, I know this is quite abrupt, but I assure you that what I’m saying
Joseph understood and replied with a smile, “As far as I know, Ms. Moore is currently single. However,
Edward, she prefers mature and responsible men, so you might not be her type.”
His words struck the hearts of two people.
Adrian’s constant worry stems from a sentence that Evelyn once said to him.
She said she likes mature and responsible men, but Adrian is nothing like that.
That night’s events were the best proof.
He is impulsive, unrestrained, and irresponsible.
Edward was initially just testing Adrian on purpose, but now that he sees someone’s mood has
dropped, he decides not to say anything more.
He continued to happily chat and drink with Joseph, while Adrian began to drown his
sorrows in alcohol.
As the night went on and the drinks kept flowing, I became more and more dazed,
staring at Evelyn without even blinking.
After a while, he suddenly said, “Ms. Moore seems to have gained some weight since the
<pst time I saw her.”
