Chapter 964
Before Vicky could respond, the waiter had brought over the dishes and the four proceeded to dine quietly.
After dinner, Vicky went to pay.
"Madam, the bill has already been settled by the gentleman at your table," the server said.
Vicky froze.
Not long ago, the man excused himself to the bathroom and she realized that was merely his excuse to pay the bill.
When she returned to the table, she noticed that the man was gone and asked, "Where is that gentleman?"
"He got a phone call and went outside to take it. He told us to wait outside," Jennifer said.
"Let's go outside, then."
After exiting the restaurant, Cece said to Vicky, "Jennifer and I have something else to do, so we won't wait here."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe taxi they called had already arrived outside the restaurant, so Vicky nodded.
After getting into the taxi, Jennifer could not help but turn around to look back. "Cece, that gentleman wouldn't
even reveal his name. Is it okay for us to leave Vicky alone with him?"
"She'll be fine." Cece had been by Vicky's side for a while
and had learned a thing or two about evaluating people. " Vicky and that gentleman clearly know each other," Cece
said. She then lowered her voice, "Also, their relationship seems quite special. The way that gentleman looks at
Vicky is different. If Vicky hadn't gotten divorced, it would be fine for us to be third wheels, but now that she's
divorced, the more suitors she has, the better."
Cece paused for a moment, then continued with indignation, "She just got divorced, and Tyler is already fooling
around with other women. Over the years, there has never been a shortage of women around him. Meanwhile,
Vicky hardly has any suitors."
Jennifer nodded. "Although Vicky's marriage didn't work out, starting anew might not be a bad thing. That's why I
think that mysterious gentleman is quite good. He's handsome and has a gentle temperament, unlike Tyler, who is
just cold and distant all the time. I feel like he and Vicky would make a good couple."
Jennifer pondered for a moment before saying, "Compared to that mysterious gentleman, I think Harvey is a better
match. Both of them are friends and former fiances. They have a foundation of affection, so dating should feel
natural between them."
Cece rested her chin on her hand. "Harvey... Harvey is indeed a good guy. Now I'm starting to worry about Vicky. All
the men around her are so outstanding. How is she supposed to choose?"
At the mention of Harvey, Cece thought of Noah and asked,"
By the way, how are things between you and Noah lately? I saw him picking you up after work a few days ago, but I
haven't seen him around recently."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmUpon hearing that, Jennifer furrowed her brow. "Noah got into some trouble recently."
"Trouble? What happened?"
"He keeps getting injured for no apparent reason, and the day before yesterday, he even encountered a crazy
woman. She rushed up to our table and accused Noah of being unfaithful. She went on and on and almost got me
convinced."
"A crazy woman?"
"Yes. Thankfully, Noah was quick-witted and exposed heron the spot. The woman got angry and tried to attack him
with a knife. Fortunately, he stopped her in time..." Jennifer
sighed heavily. "In the end, he escaped from the crazy woman, only to be caught by a former admirer from his
college days..."
"Does Noah have that many pursuers? Just a few days ago, I saw a woman pestering him for his contact
information," Cece mumbled.
Jennifer still had a favorable impression of Noah, and initially, she had thought of starting as friends and getting to
know each other. If they felt compatible, they could give a relationship a try. However, she did not expect Noah to
be so popular among the ladies.
