Chapter 625 A Matchmaking Dinner
“Ms. Nichols, nice to meet you. I’m Matthew,” Matthew introduced himself with a smile. “I believe I have seen you
during Mr. Weiss’ birthday celebration. Sadly, we weren’t formally introduced to one another back then. I have
finally managed to meet you today.”
Regarding that…
Natalie started to recall Matthew.
A man like Matthew was bound to stand out in the crowd. Natalie recalled seeing him a few times.
Natalie returned the greeting. “Mr. Patterson, nice to meet you too.”
“You’re Mr. and Mrs. Weiss’ goddaughter, and we’re quite close in age too. There’s no need to address each other
so formally. I’ll call you Natalie, and you’ll call me Matthew,” said Matthew.
Before Natalie could respond, Jason nodded with a smile. “That’s right! What Matthew says is correct. It’s better to
address each other by your names. It’s more affectionate.”
Since Jason said so, Natalie could only agree to it. She looked at Matthew with a smile and said, “Sure.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAt the dining table, Jason and Hannah had intentionally seated Matthew and Natalie next to one another.
Yana was trying to come to Natalie’s rescue when her attempt was foiled by Hannah. Her mother glared at her and
told her off, “Yana! What do you think you are doing? You’re about to become a mother of two. Don’t interfere. Let
Natalie and Matthew spend some time chatting on their own.”
“But-”
“There are no buts!” Hannah placed a chicken drumstick on Yana’s plate and said, “Eat up! If it isn’t enough, I’ll give
you more!”
Yana bit into the chicken and gave Hans a kick.
Hans was also about to speak up when Jason put a chicken drumstick on his plate immediately. “Hans, are you
envious that Yana has a drumstick and you don’t? Don’t worry! Let me give you one!”
Oh dear…
Jason and Hannah were going all out to put a stop to Yana’s and Hans’ antics.
Yana and her husband looked at Natalie. Good luck!
Natalie picked at her food and saw that there was a piece of fish on her plate.
“Eh?”
Matthew smiled gently at her and said, “Why are you only eating pasta? Have more fish.”
Since the piece of fish was already on her plate, she could not very well remove it.
Natalie mumbled her acknowledgement and ate the fish.
She did not want the fish to go to waste. However, her acceptance of the fish was perceived by Jason and Hannah
as a sign of her fondness for Matthew.
Both Jason and Hannah covered their mouths and giggled. A blissful image of the young couple began to form in
their minds.
Soon, the dinner ended.
Yana wanted to get hold of Natalie for a chat.
Instead, Hannah held onto Yana’s hand and said, “Yana, don’t you have something that you want to ask me about
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmknitting? Come, I’ll show you now.”
“Mom, I’m not in a hurry-”
“You aren’t, but I am!” With that, Hannah dragged Yana away.
Hans was about to say something when Jason cut in. “Hans, last time, you mentioned that you had your eyes on a
particular bottle in my wine cabinet, didn’t you? Since I’m in such a good mood, let’s go there and pick a bottle for
you. Shall we?”
“Dad-”
“What is it? You aren’t willing to accept my gift?” uttered Jason unhappily.
“No! I’m more than happy to accept your gift!”
Hans was not really after his father-in-law’s wines. He knew Jason was trying to get him away so that Matthew and
Natalie could have some time alone.
They were obviously in the Weiss residence, but all of the Weiss family had disappeared in an instant!
This matchmaking session looks so deliberate!
“Are you feeling embarrassed?” asked Matthew in a gentle tone.
Natalie shrugged her shoulders and answered nonchalantly, “I’m all right. As long as I’m not embarrassed, it’s
fine.”
