I Only Want You novel Chapter 21

The people inside the private room were cheerfully eating and chatting away.

When the door was opened from outside, they all turned to see who has entered.

"Mr. Lu?" Simon Wang was quite surprised to see the new guest, but he immediately greeted him with a smile.

Theodore Chao, however, couldn't hide his shock. He did not expect James Lu to appear at all. Not only that, why was he with Elizabeth Liang?

God, they're holding hands!

Recalling what had happened in the lobby just now, he couldn't help but frown. What on earth was their relationship?

James quickly scanned the room and smiled lightly. "Mr. Wang, do you mind two more guests?"

Elizabeth looked at the two people in the room. She did not know Simon Wang, but when she saw Theodore sitting there and looking at her and James with a face of utter surprise and confusion, she understood James's intention.

The reason why he took her to a stylist before coming here — to let Theodore know that he's worse without her, while she's so much better off than she's ever been before, with a man who treasured her even more.

Simon was delighted to hear James's question, with a big smile on his face. He had been trying to meet James for six months. He was originally planning to negotiate a joint project between their respective companies, but every time Simon has reached out to James, he was always carelessly turned down by the latter's assistant saying: "the investment is not worth the reward, Mr.Lu is not interested."

He had no choice but to settle for less by meeting with Theodore Chao. The Chao Company was doing rather well, and he had heard the news of the engagement between Theodore Chao and Josephine Liang. That was why...

But now, James had taken the initiative to meet him, so of course Simon was delighted. After all, Lu Enterprises was in the global top 50.

"I am incredibly honored to meet you, Mr. Lu." Simon stood up, "Please come in Mr. Lu."

James nodded, then elegantly strode into the room with Elizabeth's hand in his.

"Who is this beauty, Mr. Lu?"

Simon Wang was so focused on James that he only just now saw Elizabeth. His eyes flashed with awe when he saw her.

James chivalrously pulled out a chair for Elizabeth. After she sat down and he had also taken a seat himself, James finally answered Simon, "Elizabeth Liang."

Nothing less, nothing more.

Elizabeth's parents had passed away ten years ago. Over the years, she refused to participate in socialite gatherings and devoted herself to her studies, so almost no one in the outside world knew that she was actually the only daughter of the Liang Family.

Looking at how James acted towards Elizabeth, it was obvious that there was something going on between them.

"I am glad to meet you Miss Liang!"

Elizabeth had to greet him as well. "Nice to meet you."

Theodore looked at the woman sat across the table. Maybe men were just all the same, but when he saw her with James, Theodore felt as if there was a heavyweight on his heart. After all, she was the girl he had cherished for so many years. He had always loved her because she was a simple and lovely girl.

She looked especially stunning today. Had she ever made the effort to look like this when they were together?
