Chapter 1388 I Have A Girlfriend
“Hello, Mom.” He quickly answered his phone. “Have you finished your meeting? I’ll send you an address. Come over at 6.30PM sharp. Don’t be late!” Brenda ordered him.
“Alright. I know, Mom!” He supported his forehead. The day-long meeting and international video conference had made him so busy that he did not have time to rest. After taking a look at the clock, he retrieved his keys and left. The restaurant he was heading to happened to be the same place where Brandon was, but they arrived one after another.
Queenie followed her father into the private room the client had booked in advance and began their meal after exchanging a few pleasantries. It was not long before a white and cool-looking sports car arrived at the restaurant’s entrance. Nigel descended the car and took a look at the private room’s number. Then, his long figure began heading inside the restaurant.
“Mr. Manson, please follow me,” a waiter greeted him enthusiastically. When Nigel arrived at the private room that his mother was in, he was met with a room filled with women. Being the only man in the room, he was taken aback. Then, he naturally looked at his mother. What kind of dinner is this? How can Mom ask me to come to dinner with her besties?
Brenda immediately smiled and introduced him to everyone. “This is my son, Nigel.” After that, she beckoned him over. “Nigel, have a seat.”
Since he was already here, he thought he could not embarrass his mother in front of her friends, so he found an empty seat and sat down. The seat beside him was occupied by a beautiful young woman, who was his blind date for tonight.
As he was surrounded by women at this point, Nigel did not notice that the person sitting beside him was a young lady. However, the young lady was staring at him with shy and cheerful eyes. What’s ‘love at first sight’ you ask? This. This is it. I’ve fallen in love with Nigel Manson.
“Nice to meet you, Young Master Nigel. I’m Ingrid Sawyer.” The young woman took the initiative to introduce herself.
Meanwhile, Nigel was famished and had already started eating. He glanced at Ingrid and reciprocated, “Hello.” After that, he focused all his attention on eating.
Oh, Nigel. Brenda shot her son a glare as a warning to not mess things up. This is a blind date! I can’t let him scare the young woman away!
“Mom, I’m hungry.” Nigel turned to look at his mom. It was then that he realized his mom had set up another blind date for him.
“Here, let me introduce you two. This is Ingrid, and she’s Pheona’s niece. She comes from an excellent family, and she’s intelligent and beautiful. You two should get to know each other.” Once Brenda finished speaking, she blinked at her son, indicating that he should seize the chance.
Meanwhile, he turned to look at Ingrid while eating. “Hello, Miss Sawyer.”
“Nigel must be famished! With such a huge company, there must be a lot of work to do. It must be tiring!”
“Of course. Nigel is a very excellent child. Not only is he young, but he’s also very capable. Such young men are tough to find nowadays.”
At that, Brenda proudly looked at her son before gazing at Ingrid. She thought the two children looked so well together, so she began wishing that her son would be interested in Ingrid.
“Nigel, don’t just eat on your own! Pay some attention to Ingrid,” Brenda urged.
“Nigel, Ingrid is an excellent woman. A perfect match for you!”
“You’re right. This is what they call a perfect match!”
Hearing that, Nigel revealed a smile and explained, “Thank you for the compliments, but I’m sorry to tell you that I have a girlfriend.”
As he said that, Ingrid almost choked on her water and coughed lightly before looking at the man beside her in disbelief.
On the other hand, Brenda could not help but glare at her son. He had always used this excuse to get out of blind dates, so she naturally did not believe him. “Nigel, I like Ingrid a lot, so you’d better not use the same old excuse again. I don’t care. You have to get to know Ingrid no matter what,” Brenda authoritatively warned him.
In return, she saw her son explaining seriously, “Mom, I do have a girlfriend. Her name is Queenie Silverstein, and I am thinking of bringing her home to meet you someday!”
