I Met The Female CEO While Escaping A Blind Date

Chapter 35: Harmony

After making a few jokes, Xenia Lewis subconsciously changed the topic to the design and decoration of the company’s main hall.

The two of them immediately started chatting seriously. William Scott even took out a pen and the two of them sat in front of the desk, sharing their thoughts while drawing on the paper.

The two of them were so engrossed in their conversation that they did not even notice William Scott’s mother when she knocked on the door.

Janna Sands had wanted to call them for dinner, but seeing that they had closed the door, she didn’t want to disturb them. However, she could hear them talking from behind the door. Although she couldn’t hear what they were saying, their tones were normal, so she knocked.

However, there was no response when she knocked on the door. She opened the door and saw their posture. She quickly said, “Sorry to disturb you.” Then, she immediately retreated and closed the door.

William Scott and Xenia Lewis finally heard her. Xenia Lewis turned around and saw Janna Sands’s figure when she closed the door. Then, she suddenly realized a problem.

Because she was too engrossed in the conversation, she did not notice William Scott’s and her own postures. At this moment, she was already leaning against William Scott’s back with her arms in front of his chest. Only then could she easily take the pen from William Scott and doodle her thoughts on the paper.

Xenia Lewis suddenly stood up. She knocked onto the bed behind her and fell onto it.

William Scott quickly turned around and looked at her sorry state. He could not help but burst out laughing. “What are you doing? Are you tired?”

Xenia Lewis glared at William Scott and said with a red face, “It’s all your fault. If Auntie saw me lying on your back, I won’t be able to clear my name.”

Only then did William Scott recall the scene from before. He suddenly felt a little vexed. He had been too engrossed just now and did not properly feel it in the moment. However, he could only hide this thought in his heart and chuckled. “Why would you need to clear your name? What’s our relationship?”

“Oh, right, I’m your girlfriend.” Xenia Lewis immediately got into character and winked at William Scott. “Help me up.”

William Scott pulled Xenia Lewis up and the two of them left the room.

......

“Ah, it smells so good!” The moment Xenia Lewis came out, she started sniffing and walked quickly to the dining room.

Janna Sands immediately smiled and said, “You guys came out at the right time. I just finished cooking and it’s time to eat.”

“Auntie, just by smelling this, I know that your dishes must be delicious.” Xenia Lewis flattered her.

“Haha, it’s just some home-cooked dishes. I don’t know if they’re to your liking. Come, come, sit down.”

“Here, have a taste of my stewed pork ribs. William has always liked it since he was young. He can eat a big bowl of it each time.”

“Come, come, try this fish. I specially got someone to catch this fresh fish.”

“And try these vegetables. I specially picked them out myself. I was afraid that you wouldn’t like the thicker parts of the vegetables.”

Xenia Lewis ate a few mouthfuls and then raised her head. She was touched and said, “Auntie, I’m not that pampered. When I come to eat in the future, you don’t have to specially cook for me. Otherwise, I’ll feel bad.”

Janna Sands saw that Xenia Lewis was enjoying her meal and said with a smile, “It’s fine, it’s fine. A big CEO like you only eats exquisite dishes at restaurants. We can’t be too shabby at home. Anyway, I have nothing to do at work, so I can slip out when I’m free. It’s not troublesome.”

Xenia Lewis was even more touched and said, “Auntie, you’re so nice. I’ll definitely come more often in the future, but please don’t give me special treatment or I’ll feel uncomfortable.”

Upon hearing this, Janna Sands immediately beamed with joy and said, “Alright, alright. This is your first time here, Auntie can’t possibly be rude. When you come over more in future, Auntie will just prepare some simple home-cooked dishes.”

Xenia Lewis smiled sweetly and said, “Yes, yes, a home-cooked meal will do. I will eat whatever you guys normally eat. I’m really not that picky.”

Janna Sands immediately said, “Then you must come over often to eat.”

“Of course. I’m just afraid that I’ll come over so often in the future that Auntie will getting annoyed by me.”

“Why would I? I can’t wait for you to come and eat every day. Why don’t you just stay here from now on? You young people don’t usually pay attention to your diet. This way, you can have warm and filling meals at home every day.”

Xenia Lewis blushed and turned to look at William Scott. This was not easy to answer.

William Scott coughed lightly and said, “Mom, it’s too early to think about this matter.”

Janna Sands laughed and said, “I didn’t consider this matter fully, but it’s nothing much anyway. It’s not a bad thing for young people nowadays to cohabit earlier.”

“This… We will consider it in the future.” Xenia Lewis was also a little embarrassed. This topic was really too sensitive.

William Scott kicked his mother, getting her to stop discussing this topic.

The rest of the meal was very warm and harmonious. After the meal, Xenia Lewis took the initiative to wash the dishes. Janna Sands immediately rejected her and said, “You’ve been so busy the whole day, don’t do any more chores! Quickly go and rest for a while and eat some fruits.”

Xenia Lewis could not persuade Janna Sands, so she could only head to the living room and sit down. She whispered to William Scott, “Auntie is so nice.”

William Scott smiled and said, “My mother is just like that. As long as you’re to her liking, she’ll be nice to you with all her heart.”

Xenia Lewis lowered her voice and whispered into William Scott’s ear, “I’m a little worried now. Yvette might be good in the business world, but she doesn’t seem to have a high EQ. I wonder if she will get along well with Auntie.”

“Don’t worry about that. They’ll get along slowly.” William Scott naturally wouldn’t say that there was no need to worry about it since this was fake.

“How about…” Xenia Lewis touched her chin and said, “I’ll help her get into Auntie’s good books so that she doesn’t mess things up in future?”

William Scott narrowed his eyes at her. “You really think that works.”

Xenia Lewis said slyly, “Hehe, I just want to have a place to eat at. I eat takeouts every day, so much that I have lost my appetite.”

“Ha, that’s a good idea. You should discuss it with Yvette.”

“Forget it. If I bring it up to her, she’ll definitely scold me to death. In the future, I’ll just secretly pretend to be her to eat and drink for free.”

William Scott couldn’t help but smile. Xenia Lewis’s way of thinking was really absurd.

After Janna Sands finished cleaning up, she came back and chatted with Xenia Lewis for a while. Xenia Lewis was also chatting happily with Janna Sands. If not for William Scott’s suggestion to send Xenia Lewis away, his mother would have thought of ways to get Xenia Lewis to stay the night.

When William Scott sent Xenia Lewis away, his mother glared at him as if she expected better from him. She felt that this son of hers was too disappointing. His mother was creating opportunities for him, but he was not playing along at all.
