Chapter 156
What was Xara seeing?
Why was James, the son-in-law of the Callahan family, rumored to be an infamous loser, having lunch with General Highsmith, a general under the command of the Blithe king?
She did not know how to react.
Utterly shocked, she covered her mouth with her hands.
Hearing a gasp, James turned around and noticed her.
‘What is she doing? Is she that surprised to see me?’
However, one glance at Daniel, and he understood everything
He then stood up. “What a coincidence, Xara, you’re here too. Have you eaten? Come, join us. Oh, by the way, let me introduce you to Daniel. He’s a good friend of mine We grew up together in the orphanage. It’s our first time seeing each other in years, so we decided to have lunch together.”
Daniel cast a glance at James, taken aback
He immediately understood the situation and played along. Standing up, he greeted Xara with a smile, “Hello, I’m Daniel.”
“Ah….”
Xara gasped.
She was thrilled.
“General Highsmith is talking to me! What should I do? I’m so nervous.’
At the table right next to them, Francis was stunned upon seeing Xara extending her greetings to Daniel
He had just been bragging about being acquainted with General Highsmith.
What should he do now that Xara has met the real deal? If he backed down now, he would lose this opportunity forever.
Knowing this, he swallowed his pride and walked toward them. He presented himself before Daniel with a dignified expression. “General Highsmith, how do you do? My name’s Francis. I’m from the Leland family…”
