Chapter 279: Chapter 279: Intentional
Eight o’clock in the evening, Friac restaurant
Charlotte Thompson arrived early.
To avoid letting Adam Ross catch on to anything, she deliberately waited outside the door.
She intended to let Adam Ross make all the decisions for ordering food, she only needed to find an opportunity to get a hair strand from his head.
"Miss Thompson is really early, it seems you’re quite familiar with this place."
Adam Ross spotted Charlotte waiting by the door as soon as he got out of the car and couldn’t help but smile.
The tall and slim man was rarely seen in casual clothes, a white shirt with black pants.
It made him look rather youthful, his eyes were as vibrant as before, and he had red lips and white teeth.
"Mr. Ross is really good at making jokes, I don’t come here often, hence, I’m waiting here for you to lead the way,"
Charlotte gave a light smile. Luckily she was prepared and obediently followed behind Adam Ross.
Adam Ross tacitly approved of her behavior, as soon as he pushed the door open, someone came to greet him.
"Mr. Ross, how do you have the time to come over today?"
Adam Ross chuckled, pointing at Charlotte behind him, "I brought someone over today, please arrange a decent private room."
The manager nodded and made arrangements for Adam Ross and Charlotte to be escorted to a first-class private room.
As soon as Charlotte sat down, she started thinking of ways to get a strand of Adam’s hair.
"Mr. Ross, we agreed that I would treat you to dinner, so you get to pick the dishes first,"
Charlotte stood up with the menu in her hand and got close to Adam Ross.
As she eyed Adam’s hair, that was so close, she was about to reach out when her menu was suddenly taken from her.
As she lowered her gaze, she ran into Adam’s playful and examining sets of eyes, making her feel quite embarrassed.
"Miss Thompson, your way of inviting someone to dinner is rather unique,"
Adam Ross took over the menu, took a careful look.
After casually picking out a few dishes, he handed the menu to the attendant.
Charlotte pursed her lips, didn’t say a word, but just took an awkward sip of her water.
Her eyes were quite round and sneaky, scrutinizing Adam Ross who was in front of her.
"Why, is there something on my face?"
What Adam Ross didn’t find being stared at discomforting, in fact, he found it enjoyable, his eyes were playful as he looked at Charlotte.
"Nothing really, just that Mr. Ross resembles a friend of mine, thus I took a few more glances."
"What a coincidence, but I’m quite curious, who is this friend of Miss Thompson’s, I wonder if I would know them."
Adam Ross brought the cup to his mouth, his lips crooked into a light smile as he said a few words.
Those words almost made Charlotte spit out the water in her mouth.
This Adam Ross was just too weird, she needed to get his hair quickly.
Instead of answering him, Charlotte looked towards the entrance.
Subtracting the time, the food should be coming out soon.
As expected, the waiter came with the dishes.
Seeing this, Charlotte quickly stood up, attempting to take the dishes from the waiter.
But Adam Ross didn’t give her the opportunity, he directly caught hold of her arm, looked at her, and lightly smiled.
"Miss Thompson, you wouldn’t be going back on your word, considering you’re the one who said you’ll treat me to dinner."
Charlotte had to suppress the urge to punch the innocent smiling Adam Ross, instead, she waited helplessly.
Seems like, she had to use a big move now.
Charlotte handed a glass of wine to Adam Ross, her eyes and eyebrows smiled, "Of course not, Mr. Ross, here’s a drink for you."
Adam Ross smiled, stretched out his hand to take the glass when Charlotte suddenly pretended to slip and spilled the wine on his clothes.
The perfect and delicate face of Adam Ross visibly showed his annoyance.
He had a cleanliness obsession.
