Chapter 672: Chapter 682: If You Encounter Your Friend’s Boyfriend Cheating 2

Isabella Gray intentionally left two seats beside her for Chloe Grant and Jacob Lee.

"Come on, over here." Isabella waved at them.

Chloe Grant settled Jodie Cooper and Benjamin Grant into their seats before taking Jacob Lee’s arm and heading towards Isabella.

She sat down next to Jacob, and on Jacob’s other side was Matthew Morgan.

As Jacob took his seat, his gaze met Matthew Morgan’s, and he quickly looked away, his hand trembling slightly.

However, none of the others present noticed these small details.

Isabella held Chloe’s hand, feeling a thousand emotions but unsure what to say.

Chloe squeezed Isabella’s hand in return, smiling at her, with an unspoken understanding that words weren’t necessary.

"Alright, don’t just sit there, pick up your chopsticks and eat."

As the elder, Mr. Morgan took the lead, and the others at the table naturally followed, beginning the meal.

Isabella offered Chloe some food, "Have you finalized your plans to move to A City?"

Chloe wasn’t sure how to answer this question.

Originally, she was supposed to go to A City today to confirm the house, but she couldn’t reach Jacob Lee.

Instinctively, Chloe glanced at Jacob... but Jacob was looking at Matthew Morgan beside him.

He quickly looked away again.

Chloe found this strange.

"Oh, well, the company doesn’t want me to leave yet. They want me to stay in the Imperial City for a while and train new recruits." Jacob Lee replied.

Chloe was surprised.

He hadn’t mentioned this to her before.

Upon hearing the news, both Isabella and Mr. Morgan were pleased.

Even the usually reticent elder commented, "Staying in the Imperial City is still better."

Although he rarely spoke and didn’t often express emotions, Mr. Morgan’s affection for Chloe was no less than Isabella’s.

"I also think the Imperial City is great," Lucas Morgan shared his thoughts.

Sneaking a glance at Matthew Morgan.

Matthew maintained his usual demeanor, cold and composed.

However...

Lucas noticed that Jacob Lee kept glancing at Matthew Morgan, prompting him to feel that something was definitely amiss.

After all, Jacob Lee used to clash with Matthew Morgan, showing no fear and not wanting to lose to him. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

Lucas was now very curious about what Matthew had done to Jacob.

"Jodie, when are you and Benjamin going over?"

Isabella casually asked as she handed Chloe some food and happened to notice Jodie.

"Oh, next week," Jodie replied.

She would only be back for a short time, as she had work in Country A.

"So soon," Isabella remarked, a bit wistfully, "Your stay here is too short. Is Benjamin going with you?"

"Yes," Benjamin answered.

...

The meal that followed was quite lively, filled with jokes and laughter.

Throughout this, Matthew Morgan remained silent.

George Stern and Ralph Koch, the two live wires, put on quite a show, making the atmosphere rather enjoyable.

After the meal, everyone headed home.

Chloe deliberately pulled Jacob into the same car, letting Lucas take Jodie and Benjamin home.

In the car.

"Let’s stop at the café up ahead. I think we have some things to discuss."

Chloe spoke only after their car had diverged from the others.

Jacob glanced at her and, without saying a word, drove to the parking spot in front of the café as Chloe suggested.

Once parked, they both entered the café and chose a more secluded spot.
