Pampered Wedding Marry Me, Mr. Langford

Chapter 87

Tina was conflicted. However, she still decided to answer John’s phone call.

“Hello, John…” This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

“Tina, are you there yet?” John asked in a gentle voice.

Tina looked at her haggard appearance and asked, “John, can we change our dinner plan to another date?”

Since she had just escaped from Samuel’s wicked grasp, she didn’t have the time to rent a gown. If she were to enter the restaurant in this state, she knew she would be chased out immediately. Sensing that something was wrong, John’s gentle tone grew stern. “Tina, what happened?” “Nothing happened.” Tina didn’t want John to worry about her, so she said, “I just realized that the restaurant required a formal dress code, and I didn’t have enough time to prepare for one. I’m sorry about that, John.” “Oh, so that’s the problem,” John sounded relieved.

“Yeah.” Tina was overwhelmed with guilt. She was the one who wanted to treat John to a meal, but she ended up canceling it instead.

“I thought something bad happened to you. I was worried,” John heaved a sigh of relief and continued, “I’ll get my assistant to send a gown to you. He’ll drive you to the restaurant as well. You just have to wait for me there, okay?” Tina felt really bad about it. “But I’m the one who’s supposed to treat you to dinner…” Her intentions were to express her gratitude to John. In the end, she only succeeded in making John worry about her.

“We’re a family, after all. You don’t have to feel bad about something as trivial as this. I still have some work-related matters to deal with. I’ll head to the restaurant later. You just have to wait there patiently, okay?”

“Alright,” Tina agreed. She could hear some noises at the end of the phone. It seemed it was true John was still busy with work.

John’s assistant knew Tina’s current address. It only took him a short while to send the gown, along with a makeup artist.

Soon, Tina arrived at The Navy by car.

“Miss Lynd, Mr. Carter will arrive shortly. Please wait in the lounge in the meantime.” After relaying the message from John, the assistant turned and left.

Tina looked at the beautiful decorations in the lounge, unable to stop herself from gasping in awe. At the same time, she was worried that she might not be able to pay for the meal.

“Can I afford this? If I can’t, do I really have to work as a maid here?’ Tina thought.

Tina stared into space. In the evening, the flowers in the backyard garden bloomed, unleashing a sweet scent in the fresh air.

Since Tina didn’t have anything to do, she picked up the hem of her gown and went for a stroll in the garden.

Tina slowly walked on the cobblestone road. Her graceful figure attracted a few men from afar. “Who’s that? All the customers in The Navy have prestigious social standings in Freesia, but I’ve never seen that woman before.”

“I don’t think I’ve seen her. Have you met that woman, Mr. Jackson?” “Mr. Jackson, I heard that your taste in women has changed. You used to like sexy women. Do you prefer innocent-looking chicks like her now? Why don’t you ask for her number?”. The men laughed as they looked at Mr. Jackson, who

was sitting beside them. Mr. Jackson was the sole heir of the Jackson Group, but he also had a reputation of being a playboy in Freesia. He often fooled around with women in various nightclubs during his free time. Now that his father had confiscated his credit card, he could no longer indulge himself. Right now, he was incredibly bored. When she saw Tina walking alone in the garden, he decided to approach her. “Fine, I’ll ask for her number. Let’s make a bet. I’ll definitely get her number within 30 minutes!” “Look at how confident Mr. Jackson is! We look forward to it!” Tina, meanwhile, was oblivious to her surroundings. After strolling for a while, she saw a team of bodyguards dressed in black appearing out of nowhere. The restaurant’s manager also stood up to welcome the guests. She was still in a daze, when she caught someone talking from afar.
