    Chapter 252


    At least Roger could grow up in a ce like this. He had lived up to her parents’ expectations. If her


    parents could witness this, they would feel relieved, right? It was just that she had embarrassed them.


    Ste didn’t know if she’d ever have a career that her parents would be proud of. She sighed and


    randomly walked into a tea shop, ordered a cup of milk tea in boredom, and waited for Roger to finish


    his ss.


    She checked on her savings and thought about her next career n. She had considered what Roger


    told her, but considering her rtionship with Weston, there would be a lot of inconvenience if she did


    go down that road. If her rtionship with Weston were to be discovered, many people would be


    affected. She always had the worst ns for her rtionship with Weston.


    “A milk teatte, please.”


    After ordering her drink, she sat down in a corner. When the man paying at the cashier in front of her


    heard her voice, he turned and looked at her instinctively. When their eyes met, she was surprised. “Mr.


    Hall?” She didn’t expect to bump into him in such a small tea shop.


    And neither did he.


    He was a little surprised but quickly returned to his usual polite self. Smiling, he nodded at her. “What a


    coincidence for you to be here too. Coming over to see Roger?” Ste nodded and nced at the boy


    holding on to Mr. Hall. She smiled and greeted him.” Long time no see.” Bryce was thrilled today,


    getting the rare chance to visit the university his father worked at. Justin Hall, a lecturer, would


    constantly be swamped at work and had little time to care for Bryce.


    Some time ago, upon quarreling with Tina, he finally realized that they had both taken their children for


    granted, not giving them the time they deserved. Since then, he had subconsciously made up for it


    whenever he could.


    Initially overjoyed, Bryce became alerted when he saw her. “Hello, Ms. Steele.” Although he still


    greeted her politely, he obviously didn’t sound too enthusiastic. He also averted her eyes as he stood


    behind Justin.


    Ste knew that the little boy must’ve assumed a general impression of her and didn’t say


    anything When her drink was served, she asked the staff, “Can you help me pack it, please?”


    Bryce looked at her, and his eyes flickered as he knew she was avoiding him.


    In the end, he withdrew his eyes.


    He didn’t expect to encounter such a scene when they met again. Once she got her milk tea, she said,


    “If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first.” He nodded, took the chocte drink Bryce ordered and gave it to


    him. “We’ll leave after we finish the drink.”


    Bryce nodded. When he saw her leave, he was relieved and sat in front of his father. Justin was


    amused to see his son act as if he was facing an enemy. “You don’t seem to like her very much, do


    you?”


    Bryce was startled and sat up straight. He shook his head, expressions solemn.“I don’t dislike her.”


    “Then why were you so worked up just now?”

    “It’s just that…”


    Not knowing how to exin, he studied his father’s face carefully. After a while, he said,” Father, will


    you get mad if I tell you the truth?”


    Justin was startled.


    He looked at his son’s cautious look and felt uneasy. “Just say it. What is it that you can’t tell me"
