The Vengeful Son-in-law novel Chapter 270

"Well, I'm on the west side. It's a little far from Hotel Huasidun. Why don't we have dinner next time?" Tom declined.

Kaylie's voice became disappointed. "Ah? Why are you there?"

Tom said apologetically, "I just came here to do business. I won't be able to go back for a while. I'm sorry. We'd better make an appointment next time."

"Okay, let's have dinner next time." Kaylie's voice was filled with endless disappointment and resentment. She sighed, "Tom, if you were here, you could help out."

When Tom heard this, he was worried. Frowning, he said, "Are you in trouble?"

He was also at the Hotel Huasidun. If Kaylie was really in trouble, he could send someone to help her.

Kaylie said, "Sort of. Someone's annoying me."

Tom could hear someone else talking on the phone, which meant that there were a lot of people there. Maybe she was at a party.

Tom hated the word "party". In the past two days, he had attended several parties.

After a few more words, he was sure that Kaylie was not in any danger, so he hung up the phone with ease. Then drank more wine with the employees of his new company. It was getting late, so he decided to go back home.

However, when he came out of the private room and walked towards the elevator, he suddenly saw a group of people walking over from the opposite side. One of them was a graceful woman and looked very familiar.

Apparently, it was Kaylie.

Worst of all, Kaylie saw him too, and their eyes met.

Awkwardness filled the air.

Tom was stunned for a moment, then he quickly lowered his head and turned to walk in another direction.

This was so awkward. No matter how thick-skinned he was, his face would blush when he was caught on the spot! Just a few minutes ago, he told Kaylie on the phone that he wasn't here, but he was met a few minutes later. It was so embarrassing!

Most importantly, with Kaylie's personality, now that she met him, she would definitely pester him, which gave him a headache.

So the best way was to pretend not to see her. He decided to leave as soon as possible!

However, this method did not work at all, because Kaylie had already seen him, and her eyes widened, showing a surprised expression.

Kaylie missed Tom very much. After what happened that night, she was sure that she had fallen in love with Tom. If she had known where did Tom live, she would have directly come to Tom's home!

She had texted and called Tom almost every day, but Tom never paid much attention to her, and even didn't reply to her texts, which made her upset. She even hid in the quilt and cried.

In fact, Tom was aggrieved. He and Kaylie were just friends and he had never taken advantage of Kaylie at all.

Kaylie stared at him without saying anything, which made Tom's heart tremble. He cleared his throat and said, "Miss Knight, I was just joking with you. Actually, I was eating at the Hotel Huasidun too. I wanted to find you later."

Kaylie remained silent and looked at him with a resentful expression, which made others misunderstand.

At this moment, the young men and women who had walked with Kaylie came to them. There were three women and four men. One of them was the most handsome man dressed in famous brands and perfume. He was in his early thirties, and he looked at Tom with hostility.

Kaylie took a deep breath and said to Tom, "Why did you lie to me? You're here but you don't tell me. Am I that annoying to you?"

Tom wanted to say yes, but when he saw Kaylie's aggrieved look and red eyes, he knew he couldn't say so. Once he said that, Kaylie would definitely cry out, and he didn't know how to react to this situation.

He sighed helplessly in her heart. How unlucky he was! How could he meet Kaylie even though he came out for dinner with his staff of the new company?

Was he so attractive to women? But he had always been low-key.

"What are you talking about? Why would I hate you? Don't think too much. I was just doing a business meeting and didn't have time to see you, so I had to tell you a white lie. Miss Knight, you're so considerate. You won't blame m, right?" Tom said guiltily.

Kaylie stared at him and snorted heavily. Her eyes were saying that she would settle the score with him later. Then she grabbed Tom's arm, kissed Tom on the face, and said to the man opposite her, "Tristan, haven't you asked me if I had a boyfriend? He's my boyfriend, Tom.
