Chapter 249
lan had just hopped in the car when his phone started buzzing-it was a call from Carlene.
“lan, I’ve been waiting here for twenty minutes, where are you?”
lan glanced at his wristwatch, “Just got out of a meeting. I’ll be there in twenty.”
“Always so buried in your work, how could you leave me standing here?”
“Find somewhere to sit.
Carlene went quiet for a moment, her eyes welling up
“lan, you’ve changed so much. You weren’t like this.”
lan rubbed his temples, his tone flat, “I’m heading your way now, already booked a table for us.”
Carlene’s face brightened up a bit, “Okay, I’ll wait.”
After hanging up, lan zoned out in his seat.
Jeff, in the front, stole a glance at him through the rear-view mirror. He kept his hands on the wheel,
saying nothing.
Twenty minutes later, the car pulled up at the airport.
Carlene had been waiting outside. Seeing lan’s car, her face lit up. She hurried over and flung the car
door open.
“lan!”
She whispered his name and hugged him tightly, “I’ve missed you so much.”
lan stiffened, not responding.
Carlene held on for a moment, then smiled, “Let’s go eat. Jeff, step on it, I’m starving.”
She let him go and took a seat.
lan reached out and stowed her suitcase by his feet. She had brought a tiny suitcase, no need to put it
in the trunk. Carlene felt a warmth spread
in her chest seeing him do this. With his undeniably attractive looks and current demeanor, lan seemed
particularly charming
Carlene blushed a bit, smiling.
“I’m sorry for saying you’ve changed, you haven’t. You’re still so good to me
lan didn’t respond, he leaned back after putting the suitcase away.
“How’s life abroad?”
“You never called. If I hadn’t reached out, were you planning on never contacting me?”
Carlene sounded a bit upset. She was brought up in the Shepard family, always knowing how to read
people’s feelings, and always considerate But with lan, she acted delicate, as if she craved his care.
Seeing the name of the restaurant, Carlene smiled again. She loved this place.
“lan, you remember what I like.”
The car stopped at the entrance. A white-gloved waiter came to open the door.
Carlene smiled politely at him, but when she saw lan getting out, she couldn’t help but speak up.
“Are we going to see your wife after dinner?”
She had just gotten back but was eager to meet that woman.
lan’s face hardened hearing this, “Why would we see her?”
Seeing his reluctance to bring up that woman, Carlene couldn’t help her smug feeling. That woman
was clearly of no value to him.
“I just want to see the woman Holden values so much, to see what type she really is.”
“Just because she once saved Holden”
So, he had a particular bias against that woman. Hearing his indifferent tone, Carlene couldn’t help but
grab his arm.
“You really don’t like her at all?”
“No.”
Carlene was completely reassured. She had been worried while abroad, even coming back early to
avoid prolonging the silence between them,
The restaurant doors opened, and Carlene came face to face with another person, lan also turned to
look, noticing Samuel
Samuel had a set of car keys in his hand, seeing the two of them, he smirked.
“Ms. Shepard, you’re back.”
Carlene regained her composure, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear.
“Mr. Brown, long time no see.
Samuel was known for his sweet talk, no secret there. He glanced at lan, then back at Carlene, a
knowing smile on his face.
“Mr. Raymond, congratulations, the woman you’ve waited years for is finally back, I guess you’ll be
getting a divorce soon?”
lan’s face turned even colder, his gaze sharp on Samuel. But due to Samuels words, Carlene looked
up at lan expectantly. Sensing that lan wouldn’t respond, she quickly defended him.
“lan’s wife was arranged by Holden, he probably needs some time. Mr. Brown, why are you so
interested in other people’s family matters?
Samuel’s hand was already on the glass door, “Isn’t it natural to care about my own affairs? After all,
only when Mr. Raymond gets a divorce, cani be open about being with her.”
