That very night after dining with Scarlett Jennings.
Luca Jennings, who only reposted industry news on social media, broke his usual pattern and posted a personal update once again.
The picture was an overhead view of a city nightscape from the restaurant’s floor-to-ceiling window, where he and Scarlett had the meal together.
On the table, there was even a firework cake specially prepared for children.
Still without any text, yet it seemed to express a thousand words.
Donovan Jennings was the first to comment, not saying anything but simply posting three smiley emojis in a row, a perfect smile with a profound meaning.
As usual, Lucas Jennings shouted: [Ahhh, Uncle, weren’t you on a business trip? How did you end up at my sister’s place?]
Old Sir Jiang just liked the post directly.
Adam Jennings thought for a moment and then liked it as well.
Then came likes from other Jiang Family members, as well as other business associates.
Originally, everyone’s social media posts were solely about documents related to the summit.
In contrast, Luca Jennings’ photo stood out uniquely amidst the serious and formal updates.
Thus, everyone became aware of what Luca Jennings was up to instead of attending the evening business dinners.
And everyone also saw how handsome Luca Jennings’ daughter looked.
Though he didn’t say anything, somehow everyone understood his message.
Comment after comment praised the father-daughter resemblance and how close they were, how outstanding the daughter was, and so on.
Luca Jennings, originally perturbed by some pestering romantic nuisances and human traffickers, felt increasingly healed with each new like and complimentary comment, enjoying it very much.
He even went through the trouble of looking through nearly a thousand likes, then felt somewhat displeased shortly after.
Samuel Chalmers hadn’t liked his post.
Was he holding some kind of grudge against his future father-in-law??
Just as Luca Jennings was pondering this, Samuel Chalmers’ long-overdue like notification finally arrived.
Accompanied by a short comment.
[Samuel Chalmers: Nice cake.]
As for why it was nice, he didn’t say.
When this comment was posted, many thought they were seeing things.
They couldn’t believe such a "nonsensical" remark would come from Samuel Chalmers.
After all, liking posts in social media didn’t seem like something this Young Master Samuel would do.
Those unaware couldn’t help but wonder if the Chalmers Family and the Jennings Family were about to make some major joint movement??
Then, you see, Luca Jennings rarely replied to a comment.
[Luca Jennings replied to Samuel Chalmers: Scarlett likes it.]
Luca Jennings actually wanted to "poke" at Samuel Chalmers a bit more.
Because he suddenly realized, apart from the Jiang Family, almost no one in their circle knew that Samuel Chalmers and Scarlett were dating, and Samuel Chalmers never shared any personal photos with Scarlett on social media.
If it were in the past, Luca Jennings would have found this normal, as he also didn’t like sharing personal photos on social media.
But now that Samuel Chalmers had become Scarlett’s boyfriend, Luca Jennings suddenly felt it was not right.
It was one thing to keep it private, but for the people in their circle to not know that Samuel Chalmers and Scarlett were dating made it seem as though his daughter was not getting the proper respect.
It’s all over the internet, isn’t it? To see if your boyfriend seriously considers your relationship, you should look at whether he’s willing to make it public in his social circle.
While Luca Jennings had his thoughts, it was ultimately the young couple’s matter, and as a parent, he shouldn’t interfere too much, which left him somewhat frustrated for a moment.
Fortunately, Samuel Chalmers was very considerate.
He quickly replied, [Next time I’ll order it for her.]
This one sentence was like an indirect official announcement of their relationship within the circle.
Luca Jennings felt instantly relieved, casting aside all thoughts of undesirable suitors and troublemakers.
