First Love Only? I Left Him First, Now the CEO Can't Let Go novel Chapter 189

Chapter 189: Chapter 189: Matchmaking Him with Wendy Linton

Seeing Caleb Lockwood in Country C was quite a surprise for Serena Jennings.

But considering that today is Valentine’s Day, Caleb Lockwood appearing in this globally renowned Cloud Peak Restaurant in Country C isn’t really a rare sight.

After all, Caleb Lockwood loves Claire Shaw so much, celebrating Valentine’s Day with her across countries is reasonable.

However, Serena Jennings did not see Claire Shaw.

Caleb Lockwood sat alone at the table meant for couples.

In the entire restaurant, his solitary yet imposing presence seemed so out of place with the surroundings.

Ethan White sensed Serena Jennings’ gaze, looked over, and also saw Caleb Lockwood.

Instead of stopping Serena Jennings from looking at Caleb Lockwood, he took the initiative, walking over with Serena Jennings to Caleb Lockwood’s table.

"What a coincidence, Mr. Lockwood, are you here for Valentine’s Day too?"

Seeing Ethan White, Caleb Lockwood’s already cold face seemed to sweep over with a chill.

In contrast, Ethan White smiled, with his usual gentle and elegant demeanor.

"Are we familiar?"

Caleb Lockwood didn’t answer Ethan White’s question but countered with another question.

Ethan White, neither angry nor impatient, said slowly, "Because you are Serena’s ex-husband, since we coincidentally met, I thought I should come over and say hello; if I’ve spoiled your mood, then I apologize..."

Ethan White’s words were flawless, Caleb Lockwood remained silent, his gaze turning to Serena Jennings.

In his memory, he rarely saw Serena Jennings dressed so brightly in red.

During their three years of marriage, Serena Jennings’ clothes were always pink.

Because at that time, he didn’t know what color Serena Jennings liked. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

He never asked.

But now he realized, Serena Jennings didn’t like pink.

Compared to warm colors, Serena Jennings probably preferred cooler colors.

Being stared at by Caleb Lockwood’s deep and sharp eyes, Serena Jennings felt a bit uneasy.

She tugged at Ethan White’s sleeve.

"Let’s go!"

"Okay."

Just as Serena Jennings turned around, Caleb Lockwood’s magnetic voice came from behind.

"You look pretty in red too..."

Serena Jennings instinctively turned her head.

Caleb Lockwood’s expression didn’t change much in her view, but it was clear that this compliment was sincere.

"Mr. Lockwood should reserve that remark for his own companion."

Ethan White shot back at Caleb Lockwood, and left Caleb Lockwood’s table together with Serena Jennings.

Caleb Lockwood watched the two gradually distancing figures, summoned a waiter, and ordered dishes.

He originally didn’t want to dine here.

Because he didn’t have a companion.

The arrangement to meet on Valentine’s Day in this restaurant was made by his father, Arthur Lockwood.

Tonight, he was supposed to meet the biggest capital behind the government of Country C—

Wendy Linton, the newly adopted daughter of The Linton Family.

But Wendy Linton didn’t come, she stood him up.

This was the first time Caleb Lockwood was stood up by someone.

He thought it was probably payback from the woman for his previous lack of courtesy.

Previously, Caleb Lockwood received a call from Arthur Lockwood, who asked him to invite Wendy Linton to discuss the transnational collaboration on the new energy railway project.

Country C and Country A are not far apart, and business cooperation between the two countries is natural.

However, Caleb Lockwood refused.

He knew very well that Arthur Lockwood had ulterior motives unrelated to business.

Discussing business was merely incidental, the real purpose was to set him up with Wendy Linton.

Caleb Lockwood was not interested, but Arthur Lockwood secretly arranged the meeting with Wendy Linton in his name.

As a result, he did not go, leaving Wendy Linton stood up.

And this time, Wendy Linton returned the favor.

This Cloud Peak Restaurant typically caters to couples dining, especially on Valentine’s Day.

Since the woman didn’t show up, Caleb Lockwood initially intended to leave.

Unexpectedly, before leaving, something unexpected occurred.

The meal was soon served, and Caleb Lockwood quietly ate alone.

The appearance of Serena Jennings and Ethan White gave him a reason to stay here and dine.

Ethan White seated Serena Jennings at a window spot, offering a panoramic view of Country C’s nightscape.

The night view was breathtaking, filling Serena Jennings’ eyes.
