King's Back
Chapter 8 Who Was Really Showing Off?

"Of course he had never eaten this kind of dishes. The best he couldget in his life was ordinary meals. Look at Dolcie, getting so skinny aftermarrying him."

In fact, Logan didn't like to eat western food either, but he wanted toshow 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 disheselegantly and talked a bit about the western civilization that he learnedfrom the Internet, which made others look highly on him.

What's more, he even learned some simple French in order to show offin front of Dolcie, who he really wanted to pursue. And he did spendsome time in learning.

Logan talked to the French waitress in French.

Jackson thought that Logan knew how to speak French. But to hissurprise, Logan changed back to speak Mandarin while ordering food.Dolcie smiled and said, “Logan, I don't know that you can speakFrench.”

"It's nothing, just some basics." Logan was proud in his heart. As heexpected, he could win the affection of the lady by eating in this high-end restaurant.

"Logan, you're too humble. You must be that kind of person that oftenvisits upper-class places. You must have passed French IELTS ." Marthasaid with a big smile.

Jackson almost laughed, he had never heard of such language 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 is comparable 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 ispretty 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 fromthe TV at most. Don't you disgrace us!"

Dolcie was uncomfortable in her heart. She brought Jackson with herwas to show that she was already married and tried to refuse Logan'sintention. But now all her family members were on the side of Logan,isolating Jackson completely.

"Mom, don't say that."

"Okay, let's order.”

Logan didn't want to be regarded as narrow-minded. Therefore, hedecided to order a few dishes and two bottles of Romani Conti redwine 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 alreadygloating in his heart. He thought that Jackson must have never eatenany standard French meals and wouldn't know how to order at all.Jackson glanced at the French waitress and spoke in perfectly fluentFrench: "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 Parisianaccent.”

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 youraccent, you should be born in Calvados.”

Jackson's tone was calm and casual, as if he was making a normalconversation in Mandarin. He started a conversation with the Frenchwaitress.

Logan was completely lost, looking at Jackson conversing with theFrench 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 hecaught sight of the excitement on the face of that waitress, he realizedthat Jackson was not messing around. He did know French, and wasreally good at it.

Dolcie was very surprised. She didn't expect her househusband, whowas messy all the time, actually possessed some practical skills.

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

The French waitress was so excited that her little face blushed, sheasked Jackson kindly: "Sir, Have you ever been to my hometown?""Once, Calvados was known as the village on the damp plain, and it wasa very beautiful place.”

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

In fact, the languages Jackson could speak were more than just French.After all, he went abroad at the age of ten and had travelled differentplaces in the world to found the Dragon Palace.

Language was merely a way for him to communicate.

The waitress came close to Jackson and whispered in his ear: "Sir, youare the most gentleman-like Chinese I have ever met, can I have yourphone number?"

The French ladies were romantic, the reason why she wanted Jackson'sphone number was apparent.

Jackson rejected with a smile, and spoke in Mandarin, "I'm sorry, but Iam 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 wasindeed good at one thing no matter what others said about him.

But to be honest, she had never attempted to learn more about thisman ever since they knew each other.

Dolcie couldn't help thinking that whether he was hiding somethingfrom her. She began to doubt more as she thought of her grandfatherforcing her to marry this man.

Logan remained calm and silent, pretending to understand theconversation between Jackson and the waitress. He even noddedconstantly to show that he could understand. But he felt puzzled inside.Didn't they say that Dolcie's husband was a useless garbage, why washe so different from the rumor.

At this moment, Martha mumbled disdainfully, "What, why is it sosurprising. If I stay at home all the time and do nothing, I can also learnfew languages. 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 andsaid:

"Dolcie, although I have married once, I would cherish a relationshipmore because of the divorce. An unhappy marriage will not last long. Ithink 1 have the right to pursue you."

This was...an explicit love confession.0000
