Will You Marry Me, My Ex-Wife? novel Chapter 2656

"Special reaction?" Steven frowned and recalled the business meeting he had with Joshua.

He then stared at Kate. "Nothing special, other than what you told me that he said I look like an old friend of his.”

Steven was still baffled by this when he recalled the moment. "Luckily, you told me Joshua Lynch likes to say that to pull the string, or I might've believed him when he said that!"

Kate narrowed her eyes. "So Joshua Lynch himself said you look like his old friend?"

"Yes." Steven paused while feeling lucky. " But, I didn't fall for it. I told him that I don’t like to pull any strings when I'm talking about business."

Kate was surprised, and her eyes could not hide how happy she was. "What then?"

"Well, he never talked about his friend anymore, and we started with the negotiation."

Later, he could not help but sighed. "I know people tend to butter up to people while doing business, but I never expect Joshua Lynch to do something like this when he is already such a successful businessman."

Kate clenched her hand into a fist and used it to cover her mouth as she coughed. "It's... normal, I guess. No one would think they have enough money."

Steven paused and nodded as he finally understood. "You're right."

Kate frowned unnoticeably when she saw how naive and pure Steven looked. He had been lying on the bed for more than five years after he became a vegetative person. Due to that, there was a big difference between his appearance and his mind. He looked like a mature man with a mature voice, but the way he spoke sounded like a teenager.

She sighed as she thought about it, finding herself oddly missing Luke. Although Luke had always treated her coldly, he was mature and proud.
