"Diana, don't you have that design industry dinner tonight? You should go so you don't miss it. I've already sent Aaron my location; he'll be here soon to pickup.
"This is a public place with surveillance, so it should be fine,” Ellie said, glancing nervously out the window, feeling utterly useless.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDiana gave Ellie a supportive look. “It's no big deal if I miss one dinner. I'll stay here with you until Aaron comes to pick you up, then I'll leave. Otherwise, I won't feel at ease." Ellie's mind was a mess, so she didn't argue. She instinctively reached into her pocket to check if the early pregnancy test was still there.
Not far outside, Alex's eyes were fixed on Ellie in the booth. Even through the floor-to-ceiling window, he could sense her unease. He quietly ordered her sfavorite dishes and then slipped away in his car.
A waiter said, "Ms. Grant, your friend specially ordered dinner for you and your friend." After the waiter left, Ellie spoke up shyly. "Diana, your friend really went all out for us." Diana looked at the two luxurious steak meals in front of them and sighed at the extravagance. She usually only ate her steak medium rare, and these medium-well dishes were clearly Ellie's favorite.
Picking up her knife and fork, Diana grumbled as she ate, "My friend's heartless and tasteless. He's got nothing but money, so dig in without guilt!" Ellie was momentarily speechless.
Just then, Yvette walked in with a huge tote bag, accompanied by Quinlee. "Dr. Thompson, what a coincidence," Yvette greeted Ellie warmly but ignored Diana.
Diana, sitting in her seat, rolled her eyes at Yvette and Quinlee and kept eating her dinner.
Ever since Diana's fallout with Yvette, Quinlee had been fanning the flames, blaming Diana and pushing her to apologize. Diana wasn't having it, not even if Winnie was around.
Ellie gave Diana an awkward glance. Although she had already mentally distanced herself from them and didn't want to be friends with people like that, she still politely replied, "What a coincidence." Yvette glanced at Diana without a hint of emotion and raised her voice slightly as she spoke to Ellie. "I was wondering why Aaron toldto wait at this restaurant, and now I see you are here too." Ellie couldn't help but frown. Aaron had already made it clear with Yvette before. Even after Yvette reached out to him multiple times, crying a lot, he still didn't change his mind. So how did they end up meeting again? "Yvette, since Ellie is here too, why don't you just wait here?" Quinlee pointed to the spot next to Ellie, inviting Yvette to sit.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmYvette awkwardly looked at Ellie and asked, "Ellie, can I sit here and wait for Aaron?"
"No!" Diana rolled her eyes tically and pointed aroundn "There are empty seats everywhere, and you're not sitting in them on purpose, right?!"
Seeing Diana finally speak, Yvette carefully approached her. She met Diana's obviously disdainful eyes and gave a slight smile, "Ms. Grant, I know there might be smisunderstandings between us. I'll sit at another table, so please don't get mad anymore." 1/2 21:51 Sun, 23 Feb NN Chapter 482 ☐☐40%
Yvette spoke with distress, just about to leave, but Quinlee subtly stopped her. Quinlee spoke deliberatelydeliberately trying to annoy Diana.
"Yvette, you're really easygoing, no wonder Mr. Thompson is so fond of you."
