Accidenttal One Night Stand with My Aloof Uncle-Chapter 673 - 683: If You Encounter Your Friend’s Boyfriend Cheating 3

Chloe Grant really dislikes hot coffee.

Because every time she drinks hot coffee, she gets extremely sleepy, so she always prefers iced drinks.

Vanilla iced latte is her favorite.

At this moment, there’s a vanilla iced latte in front of her, while Jacob Lee has ordered a very strong black coffee, which is slightly steaming.

The two of them have been sitting for a while now, yet neither has said a word. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Chloe Grant had proactively reached out to talk to Jacob Lee, but she truly didn’t know how to begin.

She found it strange that Jacob Lee disappeared for the entire day today.

And also strange why, after agreeing to go to City A, he suddenly said they wouldn’t go, without giving her any explanation.

Even stranger was why Jacob Lee would secretly look at Matthew Morgan, and Chloe even sensed that he was apprehensive about Matthew Morgan.

Before this, Chloe could sense that Jacob Lee and Matthew Morgan were quite adversarial; even if Jacob Lee was wary of Matthew Morgan, he wouldn’t show it, and would instead deliberately oppose him.

Chloe had a bunch of questions in her heart but didn’t know how to start.

Seeing that Chloe’s vanilla latte was almost finished, the two of them still hadn’t exchanged a word.

"Need another cup?"

As Chloe finished the last sip of her iced latte, Jacob Lee asked gallantly.

Chloe thought for a moment, then nodded, "Yes, please."

Jacob Lee gestured for the waiter to bring another one.

"Whatever you want to talk about, just say it directly. If you have any questions, just ask, don’t hold back because you don’t know how to start."

It seemed he had seen through Chloe’s thoughts from the start.

Just then, the waiter brought a new vanilla iced latte, placing it in front of Chloe and taking away the empty one.

Chloe pursed her lips and sighed softly, "I just think it’s strange... Have you been busy all day today?"

After the question was out, Chloe found it strange.

Actually, she felt she shouldn’t have asked that way.

Not that she shouldn’t...

It’s just that, given their current status after obtaining their marriage certificate, Jacob Lee was obligated to give her an explanation.

But Chloe also felt that, given their emotional distance, asking in such a way seemed a bit...

Overall, it was quite confusing.

"Handling some matters." Jacob Lee gave this answer, "I’m sorry for making you get the marriage certificate alone."

Chloe shook her head, "I understand work-related matters, but... could you provide an explanation in the future? Otherwise, I’d find it quite strange..."

At the end, Chloe might have been feeling powerless or something, her voice became particularly soft.

"Sorry," Jacob Lee said in a low voice.

Chloe moved her lips to respond but found she didn’t know what to say.

She couldn’t shake the feeling that today’s Jacob Lee was entirely different from before.

But she couldn’t clearly articulate exactly what was different.

All she knew for sure was that now, when Jacob Lee spoke to her, he seemed completely absent-minded. Chloe wanted to continue the conversation, but with him like this, it was impossible to proceed.

After a while, Chloe spoke again, "So, can you tell me why we’re suddenly not going to City A?"

"I explained at the dinner table, it’s due to work reasons," Jacob Lee replied.

Chloe frowned.

Such a dismissive answer.

Earlier, regarding all of Jacob Lee’s actions today, Chloe found them strange.

Just found them strange.

But now...
