The three of them had been sitting there waiting. It was not until 7:10 pm when Mark finally appeared at the restaurant entrance.He first glanced with his eyes slightly narrowed at Summer, then at the other three, before he took his seat.“Did your dad call you?” Yvette still did not give up.Jazz felt a headache. ‘Can’t she stop it even for a while?’“No, he should be very busy at this time,” Mark said faintly.“However busy he is, he should call you on your birthday. You are his son. But he did not even bother to call!”Raine pulled at Yvette’s sleeve to remind her. “It is Mark’s birthday today, Yvette.”Only then did she restrain herself, taking a deep breath to regulate her breathing.Jazz took out a pen and handed it over to Mark. “Here you go, Mark. Happy birthday. It might not be an expensive brand, but I bought it with my money.”After working part-time at the gas station for some time, he bought something with his hard-earned money.“Thank you.” Mark’s lips turned u

Summer walked out of the revolving restaurant.Raine was typing a message on her phone under the table. She pressed ‘send’ as she finished writing.She did it discreetly, so neither Jazz nor Yvette had noticed it. She got up and excused herself to the washroom.As she left, he gave Mark a meaningful look.While looking at the dark-red mahogany bracelet on his wrist, Mark felt his phone vibrating in his pants pocket. He fished it out and took a look.Raine sent him a short and concise text message.‘See you in front of the washroom.’Mark put the phone back quietly with an impassive face, pushed the chair back a little, and got to his feet.“Where are you going, Mark?” Jazz asked after taking a sip of red wine.“I must have had too much water and need to take a leak,” Mark said with a magnetic voice as he went.He had disappeared out of the door before his voice trailed off.But Jazz and Yvette had sensed nothing wrong with the surrounding atmosphere.In front of the washroo

Suddenly, Mark felt a pair of hands wrapping him from behind. He stopped and said in a flat voice, “Raine, why are you hugging me now, hmm?” He sounded so emotionless yet deep.“I don’t know, I don’t even know myself anymore! I just know that I want to be with you, but I can’t... I have my responsibilities!”Raine had finally let out all the sadness and vulnerability behind her facade, shaking her head as she felt the pain in her heart. Mark turned around and pushed her away with both hands, grabbing her shoulders tightly. Their eyes locked, and his tone turned soft, “Share them with me, I am here.” “I am here…” A phrase so simple yet so full of promises.His gaze felt bottomless, so deep, and so dark. Through his eyes, she felt like he was ready to shoulder all her burdens and worries. As long as he was with her, nothing in this world was impossible! His gaze lured her into a deep trance. She was completely smitten! At that moment, she wanted just to put everything behind a

“I can’t trust you anymore. You just showed me that your words carry no weight, you almost seem pretentious...” Word by word, she spoke slowly but clearly, “You made a promise to me back in Grudin North and I trusted you. But by the looks of it, I guess your promise didn’t age well, huh?” Raine could not respond to what Summer said. Her innocent face flushed with embarrassment. “Also, there is something that I really don’t understand about you,” Summer said. “You told me that you don’t love him, yet you are seducing him behind my back, saying that you love him. So tell me, do you actually love him, or do you not?”Raine bit into her lip with her pearl white teeth, leaving a deep mark on her lower lip. Summer was still staring at her while she uttered these sharp words.“You said you had your reason, that you could not love him. That was the reason you left for three years. Since you already have a reason, shouldn’t you bury your feelings at the bottom of your heart? Shoul

Raine played with the cutlery on the table, stealing glances at Mark. Yvette, on the other hand, was obviously upset by Summer’s behavior. ‘Does she even know her priorities? She should really have a better judgment, how could she spend so much time on a phone call on a day like this!’Jazz wanted to look for her outside but quickly discarded the thought after he saw Yvette’s expression. It was his brother’s birthday today. He really didn’t want to cause a scene and turn his day upside down. The clock was ticking. The dishes had all arrived at their table - some of them even got cold. But Summer was still nowhere to be seen. Mark lowered his head and checked the time on his wrist, squinting his eyes. It had already been 30 minutes since he left the washroom. Suddenly, Mark stood up and told everybody at the table, “I’ll go make a call…”As soon as he left the restaurant, his strides became wider. He walked as fast as the wind, heading towards the women’s restroom.Watchi
