Chapter 314: Chapter 313

Isla Sutton was at home replicating the final draft that Ivy River had given her, trying to recreate it completely.

Then she received a phone call from Edwin Blake.

She coquettishly said, "Edwin, what’s up? Why are you calling me?"

"Nothing much, just wanted to ask how you’ve been lately. Do you want to have dinner together?"

"Sure, I have no problem with that. Is it now? Where are we going?"

Edwin Blake rubbed his forehead and said, "You choose the place. I’ll come after I finish this meeting."

"Okay, I’ll go check what to eat first and let you know!"

Isla Sutton said excitedly, finally!

Another chance to have dinner with Edwin Blake, haha, she must dress up nicely tonight.

It just so happens to be her ovulation period these days.

Aim to seal the deal.

Isla Sutton dressed up meticulously in a deep burgundy V-neck fishtail dress, with a thin outer layer, wearing high heels.

She also attentively curled her hair into large waves.

Satisfied, she winked at herself in the mirror.

Mmm~ she looked quite charming, and with the sexy red lips as the final touch, she looked enticing!

After being ready, Isla Sutton left for the dinner.

Unlike in the afternoon, she deliberately didn’t wear a mask and sat boldly in the Sky Garden, waiting for Edwin Blake’s arrival.

Sky Garden was bustling, filled with many socialites and upper-class elites, along with paparazzi!

This was precisely the reason Isla Sutton chose this place.

She wanted the paparazzi to take photos of her, aiming to make herself a hot topic!

After waiting at the spot for a while, Edwin Blake arrived.

Isla Sutton, with keen eyes, immediately said, "Edwin! Over here~"

Edwin Blake looked up, saw her, and walked over to sit down.

Seeing so many people, he instinctively frowned, "Why didn’t you choose a place with private rooms? It’s a bit noisy here."

Isla Sutton stood up and sat beside Edwin Blake, "Edwin, you came quickly, done with the meeting?"

Edwin Blake nodded slightly, and moved his body a bit, "Yes."

"Edwin, what would you like to eat? I’ll order for you. I heard the cuisine here is quite good, that’s why so many people come here. I even brought a good bottle of wine from home!"

Isla Sutton said with a smile.

Edwin Blake kept a certain distance, "You decide, I’ll eat anything. Waiter."

"You select dishes here yourself, and they will come afterward."

Isla Sutton quickly said.

The waiter arrived, and respectfully said, "Hello, what service do you need?"

"Do you have any private rooms available?"

The waiter smiled apologetically, "Sorry, sir. Our private rooms need to be reserved, and they’ve all been booked for today. They’re full now."

"Private rooms are hard to arrange here, Edwin." Isla Sutton said considerately, and then suddenly asked, "Don’t you want to sit in the main hall?"

Edwin Blake frowned and said, "No, it’s just a bit noisy outside."

The waiter, with keen senses, heard the name "Edwin" and combined it with the abstinent aura.

She instantly realized the man before her was Edwin Blake.

She promptly said, "President Blake, if you need a private room, I can check with the current dining guests. If any finish their meal, I’ll prepare one for you immediately, is that okay?"

Edwin Blake nodded without speaking.

Upon hearing this, Isla Sutton stealthily glared at the waiter, a true lack of awareness.

She pretended to be happy and laughed, "I’ve ordered, Edwin, see if there’s anything you want to eat."

Then, she directly stood up and moved to Edwin Blake’s side, pretending to pour wine flirtatiously.

Edwin Blake gestured to stop her, "I drove here myself, won’t drink. I need to drive later, you drink."

Isla Sutton lifted her hair and lightly parted her red lips, "No worries, I’ll drink. What did you want to talk about?"

"How have you been lately, is your hand okay?"

Edwin Blake spoke indifferently.

Isla Sutton immediately stretched out her hand, moved it around, "Still alright. Speaking of that, I wanted to thank Ivy. If it weren’t for her, my finger wouldn’t be recovering so quickly, though it’s not as pretty as before."

"That’s good, as long as it’s healed. Do you need money?"

Edwin Blake went straight to the point.

Isla Sutton was stunned, "What do you mean? Need money? I don’t need money, haven’t you been giving me money all the time? I have enough, and I have a job now, going to work earns me a salary."

"Recently, since you injured your hand and haven’t been working, you probably haven’t been getting paid," Edwin Blake thought for a moment and said, "If you need money, let me know."

"Sure, if I need money I’ll definitely come to you, but the possibility is low, after all, I can’t spend it all."

Isla Sutton said with a smile.

Edwin Blake nodded, "Sure, where did you go this afternoon?"

Isla Sutton was stunned, her expression instantly panicked.

But quickly, she regained her composure, smilingly asking, "Went nowhere this afternoon, just strolled around. Did you see me somewhere?"

"Don’t keep drawing design drafts at home, new styles have just been launched recently. Go out, shop, and relax a little."

Edwin Blake suddenly said, "Flourishing recently launched some nice jewelry, do you want some? I can ask Alexander Hodges to bring them for you to see."

Isla Sutton became more flustered, "Why suddenly mention this, did something happen?"

"I noticed you didn’t have jewelry on your hands, haven’t been wearing jewelry recently, thought maybe you didn’t like the previous styles anymore. He collected many new ones today, thought to take you to see them."

Edwin Blake explained with a smile.

Isla Sutton’s every emotion fell into his sight.

"No need, no need. This outfit doesn’t require much jewelry, and I’ve been going minimalist recently, even sold some jewelry to donate to children in mountainous areas."

Isla Sutton tried to remain composed.

Edwin Blake smiled and said, "Alright, let’s eat."

"Okay, okay."

Isla Sutton ate for a while, then directly stood up, "Edwin, I’m going to the restroom for a bit, you wait here for me."

"Go ahead."

Edwin Blake looked at the bushes with an uncertain expression, not knowing what he was thinking.

The waiter cleaned up the private room, came to Edwin Blake and said, "President Blake, the private room is ready. Should I move the food there or serve a fresh set?"

"Move it there."

The waiter respectfully said, "Okay, President Blake, when Miss Sutton comes, I’ll direct her to the private room to find you."

Edwin Blake nodded and stood up, heading into the private room, completely ignoring Isla Sutton who returned.

"There’s a private room now?"

The waiter saw her come back and hurriedly said, "Yes, Miss Sutton. President Blake has already gone in. You can go in first, I’ll help serve it in a moment."

"Please get me another pair of chopsticks, I dropped mine on the ground just now." Isla Sutton pointed at the chopsticks and said.

"Alright, alright, I’ll get them for you right away."

The waiter finished speaking and hurriedly ran.

Isla Sutton’s expression slightly shifted, she quietly opened her bag.

When the waiter returned, Isla Sutton was already inside the private room.

She knocked the door, sent the dishes in, then turned and left.

Isla Sutton seeing this said, "Edwin, let’s have a drink, it’s been a while since we drank together. How about tea as a substitute for wine?"

Edwin Blake didn’t think much and directly raised his cup to take a sip.

Isla Sutton worried that Edwin Blake might find an excuse to leave, so she started finding reasons to keep him.
