Accidenttal One Night Stand with My Aloof Uncle-Chapter 583: Don’t Think About Me 3

Chloe Grant glanced at the person opposite her, "I’m sorry, let me take this call."

Mr. Lee made a gesture for her to go ahead.

Chloe naturally answered the phone, "Hello, Grandpa... Ah? Still waiting?"

While talking on the phone, Chloe suddenly widened her eyes in disbelief and looked straight ahead.

Mr. Lee was bowing his head, taking a sip of ice water.

He looked very calm.

It seemed like he already knew what the phone call was about.

"I... I... I mistook you for someone else..." Chloe began to stutter, "Uh... okay... goodbye."

In a panic, Chloe hung up the phone and hurriedly stood up, "Sorry, I mistook you for someone else. I’ll pay for this meal, I..."

Chloe was still in shock and couldn’t gather her thoughts, so her words were all jumbled.

She was just about to call the waiter to pay the bill when the person across from her reached out and grabbed her wrist, then motioned for her to sit down.

"Really, sir, I mistook you for someone else! I didn’t pay attention, I just saw your car parked at the door, I really..."

"Enough."

The other person waved his hand, indicating that Chloe shouldn’t dwell on it, "As the saying goes, mistakes can lead to good outcomes. I very much enjoyed today’s meal with Miss Grant. Oh, let me formally introduce myself, I’m Jacob Lee."

He proactively extended his hand to Chloe.

Chloe hurriedly shook it, while saying, "I’m such a scatterbrain, I..."

"I was also on a blind date today." Jacob Lee spoke up, interrupting Chloe’s repeated apologies. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Chloe was a bit surprised, "What?"

"The other person’s surname is also Grant, and happens to be in the same company as you. So... we both made mistakes, but... since it’s a blind date, and we’re both meeting for the first time, I don’t see it as wrong." Jacob Lee smiled slightly, "Miss Grant, what do you think?"

"Me?" Chloe didn’t know how to respond.

"When you came down, I had just arrived, inquiring when the lady I was supposed to meet was coming down. The other side said she’d already come down, and coincidentally, you showed up. So, sometimes, there’s an invisible thread of fate pulling us together."

The other person spoke convincingly, and Chloe didn’t know how to refute, so she could only smile awkwardly.

Earlier, Mr. Morgan had already said on the phone that he would explain to the other party and arrange a second meeting, letting Chloe head back home.

"So, Miss Grant, why not seize this rare chance of fate?" Jacob Lee suddenly said.

Chloe was taken aback, "What?"

Jacob Lee smiled at Chloe, "I think, since it’s a fateful meeting, we might as well get to know each other well. If we get along, it could lead to a blissful relationship; if not, we’ve gained a friend. What do you think, Miss Grant?"

"Well..." Chloe was obviously hesitant.

Although she didn’t object during Mr. Morgan’s arrangement for a blind date, she was prepared to clarify things with the other party.

She wasn’t planning to enter a new relationship.

It’s just that...

This sudden situation left Chloe at a loss.

After a while, she finally said, "Here’s the thing, Mr. Lee. Today’s situation is very unexpected. Besides, I’ve just ended a relationship and need time to adjust. I can’t, nor do I want, to dive into a new relationship. The reason I agreed to today’s blind date was not to go against the elders.

I think discussing certain things with the person involved might be more understandable."
