Chapter 1709

Since Xander had confirmed his relationship with Jerome, he slowly shifted the focus of his work to behind the

scenes.

After all, they were in a relationship that could not be made public for the tbeing. If Xander continued to

make public appearances, then Jerwould soon be exposed.

Xander choosing to go behind the scenes was also to let the public forget him as soon as possible so that he and

Jercould be inseparable.

When | thought about it like this, | fell into a trance for a while.

Xander's fingers snappedback into reality. "What are you thinking about? Look at you being so focused."

"It's nothing. Are you also buying things in the supermarket?" | asked casually.

He smiled and nodded. "Yeah. Did you think | was there to go to a concert? Con, I'll take you back."

I did not refuse.

After sendingto the villa, Xander was about to leave. | stopped him. "It seems like you didn't manage to get

anything. Why don't you and Jercto my place for dinner tonight?"

"Sounds good. We'll cover later." Xander readily agreed to it.

Hence, in the next hour, Caroline and | were keeping our hands busy cooking up four dishes and one stew.

Coincidentally, Theo cin with Xander and Jerome.

"You guys are right on time. We can start eating soon."

Theo did not seem ecstatic over their visit. There was no smile on his face, and he had a stiff expression.

| touched him and motioned for Theo to entertain the guests.

Under my command, he made a statement, "Make sure you eat up."

He might as well not have said anything.

| grinned brightly and said, "You boys don't be too polite now."

"| sure won't. We're friends, after all." Jerstarted placing all of the dishes on his plate. Well, it seemed like he

was truly not being too courteous.

Meanwhile, Xander ate in a reserved way. He chewed slowly and did not forget to put

attention to me. "By the way, the media has been exploding in the past two days.

They're suddenly reporting that Serena Zoel's death had something to do with you. What's going on?"

After swallowing a mouthful of food,

| slowly responded, "Yesterday,

Serena's parents cto stir up

trouble in Grant Corporation, and a

bunch of media reporters

surrounded us. Just like that I'm

famous again."

It was no wonder the rich and powerful families had so much news surrounding them. They were all hyped up by

the media.

"Then you shouldn't be going out these days to avoid what happened in the supermarket today."

Xander's inadvertent words caught Theo's attention.

He put his utensils down and said solemnly, "You went to the supermarket today? What happened?"

"| was just so bored that | went to

the supermarket to buy sgroceries, but | was quickly recognized and surrounded. Thankfully, Xander was

there to helpout." As | described the events that happened in the evening, Theo's expression becmore

solemn.

'Crap. I'm getting punished again tonight."

| screamed inwardly.

Xander and Jerleft hastily after dinner, lest Theo's burning flames spread to them. Those two freaking losers.

Looking at Theo sitting quietly on the sofa, | walked forward slowly and quietly observed him. Seeing his stern

face, | smiled and said, "Why are you just sitting there and not talking, President Grant? Why don't | keep you

company?"

Hearing my voice, he raised his eyes, pointed to the seat next to him, and motionedto sit down.

Although | was reluctant, | had no other choice but to sit down.

"Didn't | say you couldn't go out?" Theo's voice sounded so cold that | had goosebumps.

| pouted and nodded. "Yeah, but | was just a little bored. | promise, there'll be no next time."

Seeingpromising to him so quickly, Theo seemed like he was helpless against me. "Wanda, you know that «

I'm worried about you."
