Masuk"Alright, then." Without saying anything more, Jeremy hung up the phone. Felicia gave Luke a quick look. "You can give me a ride home." Luke smiled. "We don't often visit this part of town. Before we go back, how about we have a quick look around? Jeremy was ready to walk away when he saw a gang approaching him. Anne was in Max's arms. Andrea and Tatiana trailed behind, laughing and chatting. They appeared to be one large, contented family.Already, Jeremy knew what was happening. Andrea saw Jeremy. She hesitated for a moment. He was still as attractive and composed as ever, and his good looks made it difficult to ignore him. Jeremy simply changed his eyes and turned to go without responding. Max saw him vanish. Their automobile was waiting outside already. Anne was lifted into Max's car seat, fastened her seatbelt, and turned to face Andrea. He spoke softly. "I'll go home with Anne first. Take caution when you return. Looking at him, Andrea's eyes clouded up, a hint of sadness and di
With a chilly, unreadable look on his lips, he simply remained there and watched her stomp off. It wasn't until she got well past the front gate that Felicia began to feel less angry. She had already cursed that idiot a thousand times in her mind. After some time, she was able to relax and hail a cab to go home. The street with all those tiny food vendors that was close to her former high school was passed by the taxi. Her stomach growled.Not even a proper dinner had been had. She asked the driver to halt on a whim. She hadn't been on this street in a very long time. She questioned whether her preferred pho shop still remained open. She was relieved to see that the shop lights were still on as she followed the well-known sidewalk. Like she used to, she went in and ordered a bowl of their hot beef pho. While she waited, her phone rang. When she pulled it out of her bag, Luke's name appeared on the screen. What are you doing? He said, "Didn't you see my messages?" Sorry, I didn't. Feli
After turning around and giving her kid a quick glance, Tatiana gave Felicia a stern warning. "Evelynn, you'd better remember what I said. Avoid making a decision you'll later regret. She made her way to the restroom. Only Max and Felicia remained in the hallway after Tatiana departed. Felicia shot him a chilly glance. She had absolutely no desire to speak to him. "A problem arose. I must leave. Kindly inform Anne on my behalf. Hawthorne, Mr. Felicia heard his voice behind her as she turned to go."You may tell Anne yourself." Felicia paused. She returned to the room. Anne's joyful expression dimmed. "But you hardly ate anything." "I apologize, Anne. Felicia whispered softly, "I really have to go. Anne had optimism in her eyes. "Then next time, may you come eat dinner at our house?" Felicia nodded and grinned. "Of course." Anne's expression instantly brightened once more. "Then I'll walk you out." "That's alright, my love. I'm able to go alone." We'll talk soon after you eat your food
Tatiana said, "Evelynn, are you married?" Felicia grabbed it, but she was really looking for every detail. After all, any parent would be alert if their child suddenly developed feelings for someone and asked to have dinner. Felicia gave a modest nod. Tatiana's expression relaxed slightly. With enthusiasm in her eyes, Anne continued to converse with Felicia. "Can I contact you when you're not busy at work?" she inquired, having previously stored Felicia's number in her smartwatch.Felicia felt a soft warmth blossom in her chest. She grinned. "Of course you can," Max's phone rang at that moment. After a brief conversation with Tatiana, he went outside to answer the phone. A moment later, he returned, but Andrea was with him. When Andrea noticed Felicia, her eyes briefly clouded. You're here, Andrea. "Please have a seat," Tatiana remarked in her customary kind voice. Max was seated just next to Tatiana when Andrea moved to sit next to her.Felicia's anxiety gradually subsided as the sea
Max scratched his forehead with a dejected expression. "You've already said yes, so there's nothing else for me to add." Tatiana gave a contemplative nod. "Perhaps that's best. Evelynn, I'm interested in this. Even though Anne has only met her once, she immediately has a strong affection for her. I've never heard Anne beg to bring someone home for supper, but Andrea has always been kind to her. "I'll let you handle the specifics," Max remarked. the following day.An unknown number rang on Felicia's phone. Before responding, she paused. "Hello? Who's this?" After a short silence, Anne's clear voice was heard. "Evelynn!" Felicia's eyes were wide with astonishment. "Anne?" Anne sounded both enthusiastic and a little bashful. "Evelynn, are you free tonight? I was hoping we could get together for supper. Felicia hesitated, recalling how Max had requested her contact details the day before.He might have easily found her number. She truly didn't want to see Max, but she couldn't bring herse
Felicia was downstairs now, but she had just called to say she was on the second level. It was obvious that Darin and Max had descended together. Felicia didn't feel like saying anything more, so she just said "mm" quietly. When Max asked for Felicia's contact information after she had calmed down, she began to lament how things had turned out. Anne could have contacted her if she had given her phone number. However, Max's former caustic demeanor still hurt.However, Felicia was aware that she might not be able to control her emotions if she spoke to Anne more frequently. Observing that her attitude had changed, Jeremy assumed what was going on and stopped asking. All he did was try to divert her attention. He said, "Check out the data I just finished," and moved his laptop. Felicia rotated the screen to face him, and before long, they were engrossed in professional conversation. After eating lunch together, Felicia headed to the TV station at around two.Every Saturday night at eight
The server brought their dinner over while they were still conversing. Felicia and Luke went to a nearby upscale mall after supper. He had yet to choose a gift for his mother's upcoming birthday. He sought Felicia's opinion now that he had some free time. She nodded, content to go for a walk after
"Is it true that he has never been fond of anyone? Have you never dated before? Savannah let out a sigh. "Him? He only ever considers his work and studies. For him, girls are just distractions. To be honest, all of the girls who have made an effort to approach him are incredible. Beautiful, intelli
"Savannah!" Jeremy's voice broke the tension. A loud smack was heard. Without thinking, Savannah had smacked her own face. She looked directly at Darin. "This is intended for your sister. I can try again if it's not sufficient. Darin's expression remained unreadable. He looked across to Jeremy. "Mr
The moment Andrea heard that, her face turned icy. Savannah ignored her. She looked over at Felicia. "Let's go." She took Felicia by the arm and guided her out. Felicia saw the stiffness in Savannah's jaw and gave her a questioning glance. "Is there something going on between you two?" Savannah gav
