Indeed, this restaurant was one of Jackson’s favorites
Being a recluse, he seldom dined out. His men would take the food here back to Garrism Mansion.
Today, for Oneida, it was his first time at this restaurant.
Although he had eaten the food made here many times before, this environment was completely foreign to Jackson.
As a VIP‘ of this restaurant, the manager naturally wanted to welcome Jackson personally this time.
However, to avoid startling Oneida, Jackson preferred a low–profile entry.
He was pushed slowly by Victor into the long corridor.
Unexpectedly, they happened to see Oneida and Christopher at the door.
Oneida and Christopher were standing side by side.
Jackson could only see half of Oneida’s face, Christopher was softly smiling.
Victor stiffened and had a bad feeling.
Sitting in the wheelchair, Jackson looked composed at first.
He stared at the two people for about five seconds and then looked down. His eyes darkened profoundly.
He slowly clenched his fists at his sides and his strikingly handsome face suddenly looked cold, which was very extremely frightening.
The waiter accompanying him immediately noticed this subtle change.
Just one glance made the servant’s heart jolt.
He found it terrifying.
The waiter furtively turned around and texted the receptionist
to find out what the man and woman at the door were all
about.
He wondered why they could make Jackson’s expression change so dramatically.
After receiving a reply, the waiter walked a bit closer to Jackson. He cleared his throat and said, “Sir, do you find anything particular about the gentleman and the lady over there? I heard from a coworker that they were here together for dinner. If you find them annoying, we can ask them to leave.”
As soon as the waiter finished speaking, he noticed that Jackson’s face looked even terrible.
Victor, standing beside them, closed her eyes.
He thought, “No.”
The waiter, frightened by Jackson’s cold look, shivered.
Jackson was quite a looker.
But his eyes now were indeed frightening.

Finally, Jackson slightly opened his mouth and said coldly. They are here together to have dinner?”
He especially emphasized the word “together“.
Scared out of his wits, the waiter summoned up the courage to y. “Yes”
“Mr. Bane.” Victor suddenly said, managing to stay calm, “This.. perhaps…”
He wanted to reassure Jackson that there might be some kind of misunderstanding.
However, Jackson did not let him finish his words. He interrupted Victor directly. Let’s leave here.”
He was just ordering emotionlessly.
Victor just watched Jackson and didn’t move, “Mr. Bane.”
order?”
Jackson narrowed his eyes and glanced sideways at Victor. “Are you going to disobey my Victor immediately bowed down and said solemnly and respectfully, “I wouldn’t dare to do that.” But he thought Jackson should find out the truth first rather than just leave now.
He was afraid that Jackson might feel terrible if they just left here now.
But it seemed that Jackson had already made up his mind so Victor had no choice.
Victor put her hands on the wheelchair, pushing Jackson back along the way they came.
They left like they had never been there.
In the hall.
Oneida looked straight ahead and said somewhat absentmindedly, ‘Let’s go. I’ve reserved a private dining room The things that she wanted to tell him were better to be said in a private place so she booked a private dining room.
Christopher smiled contentedly, “By all means.”
The two of them entered the room and quickly ordered some food.
After that, the waiter left.
They sat opposite each other. There was an eerie silence.
“Ida.” Seeing that Oneida just looked cold and remained quiet, Christopher had to take the initiative. “…”
Oneida suddenly interrupted Christopher. “Wait” She narrowed her eyes and looked grave, like an emotionless statue.
Christopher’s heart suddenly sank.
He vaguely had a bad feeling.
Oneida said, “Let me tell you something first.”
Oneida looked cold and cruel.
At this moment, she looked like a powerful, composed, and formidable negotiator, taking control of everything.
“This dinner is the last dinner between us.” She said, detached, “After this meal, we should never see each other again.

I’ve warned you time and again to stay away from me. Unfortunately, you didn’t take my words seriously. You kept provoking me. I have been very busy with trivial matters these days so I didn’t have much energy or time to deal with it Bor
Oneida paused and then continued. “Things are different. If you are to provoke me again, I will make you suffer
Christopher thought, “Make me suffer!”
Oneida especially emphasized these three words.
Christopher was taken aback.
He suddenly turned pale. His face was completely bloodless.
He clamped his lips together, feeling as if countless daggers were stabbed into his heart. He felt a sharp pain that he had never experienced before
He thought, “Why?
I just want a chance to make amends, a chance to make her fall in love with me again!
He knew what he did in his previous life was inexcusable but in this life, none of it had happened yet and the tragedy had not yet happened either.
He didn’t want anything else except for Oneida!
After he knew Oneida wanted to have dinner with him, he was overjoyed for days.
Each night, he fell asleep with a smile.
He never imagined that the dinner he looked forward to so much would turn into a brutal blow that made him think he’d rather be dead.
I’m not kidding, Christopher, Oneida said indifferently with a serious look, I mean it.
“Your face only annoys me. I…”
Suddenly, Oneida stopped.
After a brief pause, she continued, “I deeply love my husband. I love him. I want to spend the rest of my days with him.” Suddenly, a hint of tenderness flickered across Oneida’s face.
She never expected that she would blurt out her feelings for Jackson in front of Christopher although she didn’t dare to say these things to Jackson.
The next second, Oneida looked aloof again. She said coldly, “So, you have no chance. Whatever you do makes no difference.”
She asked, “Do you understand?”
Christopher felt numb after the sharp pain.
He bit his thin lips tightly and his eyes became unfocused.
in front of him was blurred.
He couldn’t even make out Oneida’s face. Everything in
Christopher said, with all his strength, “Ida.” He stared at Oneida with a pale face and said in despair, “May I tell you a story?”
