His Stunning Doctor Wife novel Chapter 1165

Fade couldn't stand it. He got up and made up an excuse to go to the bathroom.

After Fade left, the atmosphere around the table immediately dialed down. Lauren and her friends were relieved.

Immediately after that, they began to chatter.

"Lauren, what’s the matter? Why did you give us that look when we sat down?"

"That's right. Why were you acting like that around him? You are the young mistress of the Xu family, so why are you being so polite to him?"

"Lauren, you must give us an explanation or we'll have to leave. This is too boring."

"It’s not just boring, it's depressing! Did you see how that guy looked at Lauren? He looked at Lauren like she was just a random waitress. I would have slapped him in the face if Lauren hadn’ t stopped me."

Lauren heard that and her face changed. She rushed to cover her friend's mouth and said, "May, don't spout nonsense."

Her friends saw that and were more confused.

"Lauren, what's the matter? Why are you so scared?"

"That's true, is he really that scary? No one dares to cross our path in South Bay City!"

"Lauren, you have never been like this before. You are never scared of anything!"

"What exactly happened? Did he threaten you?"

The girls were filled with outrage.

Lauren stared at them and clarified, "Stop with all the nonsense! I wasn't blackmailed, and I'm afraid of him either. I was just really trying to make use of this opportunity."

"Opportunity? What do you mean? Is that guy supposed to be special?"

"He looks and sounds extremely normal. What's so special about him?"

"Lauren, are you okay? Are you sick? Are you sure you got the right guy?"

Lauren was really done with her friends. She looked at the bathroom and made sure that Fade was still gone.

Then, she signaled for them to lean in closer and said in a low tone, "What I’m about to say next, please keep it to yourself!"

"We are all good sisters, Lauren. Don’t you trust us?" Her friends said at the same time.

Lauren then continued, "The only reason why I’m so respectful towards him is that he is a very powerful and influential man."

"Powerful?" Her friends were shocked and gasped "He doesn't look the part though, are you sure?"

Lauren continued, "His last name is Chen and he is from Jade City. I can't disclose anything else."

"His last name is Chen and he comes from Jade City? So what' s the big deal?" Her friends wondered.

Suddenly, one of them thought of something and said out loud, "Could he be the rumored Master Chen from Jade City?"
