Chapter 1550

Chase quickly nodded in submission. “Okay, no more nonsense from me.”

Belinda frowned. “Move to the other side of the table.”

Chase obediently agreed. “Alright, I’ll behave.”

He then stood up and seated himself across the table, looking proper and composed.

However, this arrangement felt even more uncomfortable for Belinda.

Because sitting face-to-face like this made it harder for her to avoid Chase’s gaze. It was quite awkward.

“Ahem, what brings you here?” Belinda feigned casualness, trying to divert the conversation.

Chase was all smiles. “I heard you were on a blind date here. I thought I’d come and make sure everything’s

alright.”

Belinda knitted her brows. “Who told you that? Who’s got such an annoying, big mouth?”

Though Chase could be a bit of a rascal, he did have some principles. He didn’t betray-Byran by revealing that he

was the source of the information.

“If I want to know about you, I’ll find a way.”

Upon hearing this, Belinda blushed and scowled. “Ha! Cut the crap! You’re just interested in gossip about all women.

You came to enjoy the show, did you?”

Chase helplessly spread his hands. “I swear that’s not it!”

Belinda had seen Chase’s playboy ways before. She wasn’t about to fall for his sweet talk now.

“So, you think it’s funny that I ended up on a date with such a weirdo?”

Chase shook his head. “No. It’s not funny, but it is strange.”

Belinda blinked at him. “What’s strange?”

“Strange that a guy would dare speak to you like that. If I hadn’t been there, he might have even thrown his drink

at you.”

Belinda gave a self-deprecating smirk. “What’s so strange about that? He thinks I’m an old maid and that I have no

right to look down on him, so he got angry and wanted to teach me a lesson.”

Chase raised an eyebrow. “No. What I find strange is how a guy like that would have the courage to act that way

towards Mr. Blanchet’s niece.”

Once Belinda understood what he meant, she became even more cynical. She shrugged and spread her hands.

“Everyone knows I’m Theo’s niece. I was once well protected by him. But now everyone also knows he has gone

missing, and the Blanchet family isn’t exactly close with us Wesleys. So that’s just how it is.”

Chase narrowed his eyes. “Things aren’t going too well at home?”

Belinda didn’t want to admit it, but she didn’t want to lie to cover it up either.
