The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1789

Had he missed this place? Was the new dish up to standard? Clearly, these two were regulars here.

The woman was the first to emerge from the booth, a subtle smile playing on her lips. She was dressed in black

jeans, a blue V–neck sweater, with a beige down jacket draped over her arm seemingly ready to be worn

Following closely behind her was a man, not only was his voice familiar to Rose, but his silhouette was also

something she had known all too well Dressed in a black suit, he too had a coat draped over his arm, and in his

other hand, he was holding a woman’s handbag

Once the woman was dressed, he handed her the bag. Thank you” the woman said, looking up at the man with a

smile.

The man’s usually store face lit up with a smile that seemed glaringly out of place c2

Winston didn’t recognize the woman, but upon seeing the man, he couldn’t help but chuckle under his breath

Speaking of the devil

For a moment. Rose felt a bitter laugh bubble up in her throat. Was her blind insistence all this time just a

monumental joke? Over the past few days, she had been numbing herself, refusing to think about it, refusing to

care. But now

Momson always had a knack for hitting where it hurt the most. She pulled a wry smile, her face etched with irony

Momson’s subtle smirk sent a shudder through her A sudden wave of dread surged up to her head, causing her

vision to darken and her strength to drain away instinctively, she reached for Winston’s arm, her knuckles turning

pale from the sheer force

Perhaps sensing something amiss, Morrison looked up, and his smiling eyes suddenly dimmed when they landed on

Rose.

It was only a moment, but in his dark eyes, she saw a drastic shift from the warmth of summer to the freezing cold

of winter. His face was devoid of any expression, as cold

as ice

She let out a low chuckle the contrast couldn’t have been more stark

Noticing Roses change in demeanor, Winston furrowed his brows, reaching out to touch her hand only to find it

shockingly cold. He leaned in closer, whispering. ‘Are you alright?

Rose blinked, and slowly withdrew her hand from Winston’s arm. She managed a small smile. “I’m fine.”

The woman by Morrison’s side seemed taken aback when she saw Rose Her gaze lingered on Winston before finally

landing on Rose. She then calmly approached Rose, her face adorned with an impeccable smile and soft–spoken

words. Rose, its been a white

Rose gave her a steady look before finally breaking into a smile, “Indeed, it’s been a while. Her face bore an equally

impassive smile, equally unassailable. When did you get back?

Roses question seemed to catch the woman off guard, “A couple of days ago

“I see Rose nodded her smile widening ever so slightly. “Had your meal?”

“Yes, we were just about to leave

“Alright, I just got here. We’ll catch up some other time

“Sure

The woman had been largely passive throughout the conversation. After exchanging a nod with the woman, Rose

turned to Winston and said, “Let’s go, swiftly moving past the woman standing opposite her and striding forward.

The waiter who had been waiting to guide them to their table, stood awkwardly in place.

Now Rose understood why they had been looking at her so strangely

Watching Rose act as if everything was normal, Winston raised an eyebrow and followed suit.

Momson stood there, his expression cold as ice his gaze fixed on Rose as she moved further away But Rose didn’t

spare him a glance, stopping instead by the water, “Arent we going?”

Oh night this way please The warter quickly snapped out of his daze, gesturing for Rose to follow

The restaurant was upscale, its hallways wide enough for two people to pass by each other comfortably The

distance between her and Morrison was more than enough.

Her blatant disregard for his presence seemed to light a fire in Morrison’s heart Especially when the man following

her lifted his head as he walked past Momson, making sure he got a good look at his face, Mornson’s expression

darkened further

No one had expected him to suddenly turn around and grab Rose’s arm “What are you doing here?”

In response to his angry interrogation, Rose simply smiled at him “This is a restaurant, Mr. Morris

Did he think she came to the restaurant to sleep?

Mornson could clearly hear the sarcasm in Rose’s voice, his grip on her hand tightening involuntarily. “You really

want to play this game with met

Rose sighed I came here to eat is that okay?

Momson squinted at her Dont forget what your status

Rose abruptly looked up at him, her eyes flashing with anger “Is this restaurant so significant that I can’t come? Or

are you saying that my status doesnt grant me the privilege to dine here?”

Mornsons eyes narrowed further, but Rose forcefully pulled her hand away Mona is waiting for you. You wouldn’t

want to give people something to talk about, would you?”

To talk about? Yes To see Morrison torn between two women One was his wife, who was pregnant not long after

their marriage. The other was his one true love, widely known and dearly missed

Noticing Momson’s gloomy expression and his obvious unwillingness to continue their argument she knew he had

made his choice Hose let out a cold laugh. Don’t keep Mona waiting It’s not often she comes back.”

“At least you know your place Morrison looked down at her his gaze icy as he scrutinized the woman who was

significantly shorter than him.

Rose chuckled lightly. As one should We all have our pride, and none of us want to make a spectacle of ourselves

for no mason. It’s not good for you, for me, or for the Witt family Why bother?

The last two words she uttered inexplicably conveyed a sense of determination to Momson. For no apparent

reason, a chill ran through his heart, and his already gloomy

expression darkened once again.

Rose still wore a faint smile. So, take care, Mr Momson I have an appointment,

(1 see you out”

With that she turned and left, leaving Momson standing there with a storm brewing on his handsome face

Winston breezed past him, a part of narrow eyes glirting with amusement “Congrats ”

The word floated to Morrisons ears.

Congrats? His usually composed face finally cracked. Was he congratulating him, në kompeth

Mornson cast her a fleeting glance What have you done that you need to apologize for?
