Lyra’s surprise was evident. After catching Zacharias’ last name, Carlisle fixed his gaze on the man, his mind

racing. Wait a minute! That sounds familiar! Where have | heard it?

“Please scoot over a bit,” Zacharias said to Carlisle. After Carlisle quickly moved over, Zacharias promptly took

Shirley’s seat. Upon entering, she noticed Zacharias seated and urged, “Hurry back!”

“I will after | finish the meal,” Zacharias replied, moving her cutlery to his side as he used Shirley's fork and

teacup.

“Shirley, what's going on? You have a boyfriend?” Ava was somewhat confused. Her granddaughter hadn't

mentioned anything to her!

Meanwhile, Carlisle's eyes were fixed on Zacharias. At this moment, Zacharias removed his mask, revealing his

face. Carlisle stared at him in shock. “Are you... the Vice President, Mr. Zacharias Flintstone?”

This question surprised the two elderly ladies on the other side. While their interest in politics was limited, it was

evident from Carlisle's expression that the young man in front of them was, indeed, Zacharias.

“Please, not so loud.” Zacharias smiled.

Shirley pulled a chair and sat down, unwrapping a new set of cutleries. Since Zacharias wanted to have a meal

here, she might as well eat with him and accompany him back later.

“Hello, Mr. Flintstone. I-It’s an honor to meet you,” Carlisle stammered in excitement.

“Hello.” Zacharias nodded and then turned to the two elderly ladies who were scrutinizing him. “Hello, madams.”

“Cheri works for you, doesn’t she?” Ava exclaimed in surprise. She never expected her granddaughter to be in a

relationship with him.

Despite Lyra’s confusion, it was evident that her grandson’s blind date had not gone well. She acknowledged

that Shirley had discovered a more remarkable and attractive partner.

“Cheri, sit down and eat quickly! We rarely get the chance to have a meal with Mr. Flintstone,” Ava offered

happily. At this moment, Tony approached with a plate from his table. “Do you mind if I join you?”

“And who is this?” Ava was surprised again.

“He’s my uncle,” Tony grinned. “I'm his nephew.”

“Please sit! Let's eat together.” Ava welcomed him.

Fortunately, the private room was spacious enough, and they had ordered plenty of dishes. However, Shirley's

heart was in her mouth, as Zacharias’ identity was too conspicuous.

“So, Miss Lloyd has a boyfriend now! That's wonderful.” Lyra sighed. Zacharias smiled at those words. “Yes,

ma'am. We've been dating for two months.”

Carlisle completely had no intention of competing against Zacharias. He was just thrilled to be sitting at the

stable with Zacharias. In fact, this was an experience Carlisle could boast about for a lifetime.

Feeling awkward, Shirley wished she could hide under the table. She pondered, What on earth is Zacharias up

to? Why is he asserting that we're dating without my consent? Hold on, when did we even begin dating? When

did he becmy boyfriend? He better not be spouting nonsense! It’s not true at all! Internally, she vehemently

denied his claim, but externally, she simply obediently continued eating her food. Revealing his lie in public was

not an option; after all, Zacharias held the esteemed position of Vice President. Considering his high-profile

identity, Shirley opted to spare him the embarrassment.

“You've been dating for two months, Cheri. Why didn’t you tell me?” Ava reproached her granddaughter. She

wouldn't have arranged this lunch if she had known earlier. She would have spared the Dawson Family the

embarrassment.

“Grandma, we... we haven't officially started dating.”

“They've just slept together,” Tony quipped. Shirley was so close to covering his mouth with her hand. Blushing,

she complained, “Tony Flintstone, please shut up.”

Zacharias chuckled. “Grandma, due to my position, Shirley hasn't made this public yet.”

Ava immediately understood what he meant. “Oh! | see! It makes sense. After all, your focus is on work right

now. No hurry. You can take your time.” As she spoke, she couldn’t stop smiling

Lyra was also happy for her. Although Carlisle liked Shirley at first sight, he didn’t dare to express it now.

Moreover, the more he looked, the more he felt that Shirley and Zacharias were a better match.
