Chapter 514
514 Suspected of Being a Gigolo
As Wynter’s hunger grew with her intensive thinking, the food finally arrived.
Despite Dalton’s claim that it was just a modest diner, he had actually brought them to the steakhouse.
that had been a Kingbourne staple for over a century.
From appetizers to desserts, every dish served at the restaurant was mouthwatering.
Dalton knew Wolf had a hearty appetite, so he ordered him a porterhouse, seasoned to perfection.
Every
bite of the tender, juicy meat filled the air with a delightful aroma.
While Wolf savored his meal, he graciously offered some to Marie, displaying his hospitality.
Meanwhile, Dalton attended to Wynter, assisting her with the food and napkins. His usual obsession
with
cleanliness seemed forgotten, with his trench coat hanging loosely nearby.
As Dalton brushed Wynter’s hair, a gleam of joy sparkled in his eyes. “You must be famished.”
“Mm-hmm,” Wynter replied, continuing to enjoy her meal. Her physically demanding job required ample
fuel, especially after a taxing men t a l effort.
Dalton tied her hair back, his eyes radiating affection.
As the waiter entered their private room, Charlie happened to pass by with his group of old
schoolmates
and noticed Wynter inside. He abruptly paused outside the door.
Wynter? Why was a man sitting so intimately with her, feeding her food?
Charlie couldn’t recall being so close with Wynter when they were engaged. Now, he finally understood
why Wynter had embarrassed him so mercilessly in public. Clearly, she had a backup plan,
Clenching his fists, Charlie’s expression turned vicious under the influence of alcohol.
“What’s wrong, Charlie?” asked Andy, Charlie’s college roommate.
Then, he seemed to notice Wynter. “Isn’t that Wynter, the fake heiress? The one who used to pester
you?
“Who’s that guy sitting with her? I can’t see his face. Is that her boyfriend?”
As Charlie’s old schoolmates discussed curiously, Charlie finally snapped out of it.
He reminded himself that he was in the middle of a Sacred Heart Medical University alumni gathering
for Southdale students, where all the successful alumni from Southdale in Kingbourne were gathered.
“Wow, she actually found a new boyfriend. I remember she used to have a huge crush on you, Charlie.”
“Hey, watch it. You’re lucky Yvette’s not here today,” Janet, one of the alumni, interjected.
“Wynter got a boyfriend. So what? Is it necessary to keep it under wraps like it’s some big secret?”
Charlie chuckled. “You guys haven’t been back to Southdale lately, have you? Wynter’s become quite
the social media influencer now. Plenty of men are willing to stand up for her now if you know what I
mean.”
Though Charlie’s implication was clear, some of the alumni remained skeptical.
“She doesn’t look like that kind of person to me.”
“How can you be so certain of that, Charlie?” asked Andy.
“I think we shouldn’t speculate without proof. She is probably the kind of person who prefers to keep
her relationship private,” Janet remarked.
*Janet, you’ve no idea how intense Wynter Quinnell can get when she’s interested in someone. She
used to cling to Charlie like glue back in college,” said Gina, who had a crush on Charlie.
Charlie’s expression shifted as if he were contemplating something. “Janet does make a valid point.
Maybe Wynter just prefers to keep her relationships private.”
Andy, who had shared a room with Charlie for years, immediately caught on to his implication.
He quickly added, “If I were her, I’d definitely keep things low-key too if I ended up with a gigolo like
that. Though I can’t get a clear look at that guy’s face, I can see his hands are fairer than a woman’s.”
Laughter rang out from the group.
“Don’t tell me Wynter’s the one footing the bill for this guy.”
