Chapter 692 It Must Be Settled

In the evening, Elliot was waiting at the entrance of a high-end restaurant in the city.

Soon, a taxi slowly stopped in front of him. Finally, the door opened, and Stephanie got out of the car.

“Miss Stephanie, you’re here.” In an instant, Elliot turned into a fool and greeted her.

Stephanie frowned in confusion when she saw him. “You’re… Elliot. Elliot Howard?”

“Yes, that’s me.” Elliot scratched the back of his head embarrassedly.

 

“Your look today is rather unique.” Stephanie smiled awkwardly.

Elliot was younger than Stephanie. The last time they met, he was dressed in trendy outfits. His youthful look made him recognizable. However, he styled his hair meticulously and wore a formal outfit today. Thus, Stephanie did not recognize him immediately.

 

Elliot smiled shyly because he thought the other party was really astonished by him.

“Where’s Elise?” Stephanie changed the subject.

“Oh, she’s on her way. She should be here soon, so let’s go in first.” Elliot led Stephanie inside in a gentleman-like manner.

It was the first time that he was alone with the girl he fancied. Therefore, it was only natural for Elliot to be excited yet reserved.

Actually, he had asked Stephanie out many times in private. However, she always had reasons to reject him. Therefore, he thought of a way. He invited Stephanie in the name of Elise, and as expected, she was willing to come.

Elise simply acted as a wingman, so it did not matter much if she came a bit later.

Elliot was thoughtful and considerate to Stephanie in the private room; he was also attentive to her needs.

On the contrary, Stephanie kept maintaining the smile that made her look polite enough. But unfortunately, she also constantly said thank you and looked absent-minded.

Elliot found a few topics to discuss, but her attitude was very perfunctory.
