SWNOVELS Chapter 55
Chapter 55
“What do you want me to witness?” Tristan said in a flat tone.
“I want you to witness every little detail of your good friend meeting his true love, okay?” Sometimes, I really feel suffocated when talking to Tristan. He is just as straightforward as Frederic, but he is even more serious and earnest.
In the previous life when I worked with him, he only cared about Emilia and had no leisure to talk about other topics with me. At that time, I didn’t have the same feeling as I do now.
He looked like a teacher, and I felt like a guilty student.
However, my answer was also sincere because in the future, Tristan will also fall in love with Emilia. I just wanted him to watch the development of Frederic and Emilia’s relationship with me.
Tristan’s expression changed slightly and he looked at me as if I were a lunatic. He didn’t say anything and got out of the car.
As soon as he got off the car, I stepped on the accelerator and disappeared in a cloud of dust. From the rearview mirror, I saw him still standing in the same spot, watching me.
The next few days were quite busy for me as I had to accompany Janessa in selecting a hotel and discussing the engagement process. She mentioned that I was the only one among the four of us who had been married before, so I had more experience.
What experience could I have? I didn’t even have an engagement banquet. I got married directly to Frederic at that time.

Finally, Janessa chose to hold her engagement banquet at Peak Restaurant and hired a wedding planning team for the design. Janessa also told them that if they could design her engagement banquet to her satisfaction, she would hire them again for her wedding at the end of the year.
The night before Janessa’s engagement banquet, I was having dinner when Frederic came back.
He seemed a bit tired. He casually loosened his tie and threw it on the sofa before going to pour himself a glass of water. I watched his figure while eating and felt somewhat strange. Has he been so exhausted from pursuing Emilia these past few days?
“Mr. Hudson, you have returned,” the servant greeted him politely.
Frederic glanced at the servant with indifference and did not answer. He simply went straight to the dining room and sat down. Seeing this, Kira quickly added a set of cutlery.
I lowered my head to eat and felt a bit awkward. There was supposed to be a cold and distant relationship between Frederic and me until our divorce. However, now we have slept together, which makes it strange for me to meet him.
Frederic had not had time to eat when his phone rang. It was his father calling.
“Did I hear that you signed a contract with Harmony Group?” My father–in–law’s voice came through from the other end of his phone.
“Signed and done, everything went smoothly,” Frederic answered while eating with the speakerphone on.
“Okay, good. These past few days you have been abroad, so you must be tired now. Rest early,” my father–in–law said cheerfully. He praised Frederic for a few words, instructed him to rest well, and then hung up
the phone.
I was somewhat surprised. These days, did Frederic go abroad on a business trip? I thought he was madly pursuing Emilia.
After feeling my gaze, Frederic raised his thick eyebrows. There was a hint of indifference in his charming eyes. “Why are you looking at me?”
“It’s nothing,” I said, lowering my head again to eat.
Frederic continued, “Tomorrow, Janessa also invited me to her engagement party. Let’s go together.
Upon hearing these words, I had to stare at him once again. “Are you going?”
Our social circles never merged. This was purely because of the similar social class, everyone knew each other but rarely interacted.
Janessa sent an invitation to Frederic, most likely because her parents asked her to do so. This is a common occurrence in social circles. Who knows, maybe in the future, her family and Frederic will have some business cooperation. Therefore, it is normal for them to extend an invitation to Frederic.
But I never expected Frederic to agree to attend. After all, in the previous life, he didn’t participate, he just sent a gift through someone
to Janessa.
“Yes. Is there a problem?” Frederic seemed displeased with my reaction, as I appeared very unwilling for him to attend.
“No!” I shook my head. After saying that, I got up. “I’m full, I’ll go take a shower and sleep.”
