Chapter 1090


    Then, we brought up the topic of going back to Jarold City. I lowered my head slightly, thought for a


    moment, and said, "Let''s wait until the Lancille Vige project is done."


    I couldn''t help but feel overwhelmed. Humans really did change quickly with time. Not long ago, I


    had still been thinking about when I would settle the divorce with Hendrix, yet at the moment, the


    two of us had gotten so close. No one would have ever thought things would turn out that way.


    "What are you thinking about?" Hendrix reached out and held me into his arms. He sniffed my hair


    and said, "You smell good!"

    I leaned into his arms and said with a faint smile, "I''m thinking about what we should have for


    lunch!"


    Heughed in a low voice, "You''re such a foodie!" After a moment, he said, "I might be going out


    later. I''ll ask Evan to send some food over for lunch!"


    I was stunned for a moment, and then nodded. I could not help thinking of the phone call he had


    just picked up. I was familiar enough with that number. After so many years, Andrea Burton seemed


    to have no intentions to change her phone number.


    Had Andreae to Asherton?


    I didn''t ask, and a few phone calls came in again, seemingly urgent ones. I looked at him calmly and


    stayed quiet.


    He picked up his phone and looked at me, saying, "Remember to eat lunch. Wait for me toe


    home for dinner."


    I nodded and waved at him, motioning for him to settle his matters.


    I was a little surprised to receive Rowane''s call. Once the call was connected, she went straight to


    the point, "Do you want to meet up?"


    I was stunned for a bit before asking, "Did something happen?"


    "Yes!"


    Looking at the clock, I said, "I have only two hours!"


    "Sure thing!" She said without preamble, "I''ll be waiting for you in Southria Cafe!"


    In a cafe?


    We would always just talk about Hendrix every single time when the both of us meet up.


    After tidying myself up a little, I went out. Naomi had gotten so drunk the previous night, so she


    would probably sleep in until I was done meeting Rowane.


    In Southria Cafe.


    I found Rowane. She was sitting next to the windows, so it was easy for me to find her.


    As she saw me, she seemed to be calm. Although she knew that I had arrived, she failed to turn her


    head to me. She was holding a cup in one hand while holding the bottom of the cup in the other, her


    posture looking elegant.


    "Miss Zanes, you didn''t call me here for me to just admire your elegance, did you?" I smiled as I sat


    opposite her.


    Upon hearing my voice, only then did she turn to look at me, and her eyes first swept over my attire.


    I frowned slightly and smiled. "I was in a hurry to leave, so I just wore some casual clothing. Miss


    Zanes, you really are a fashionable woman. You seem to look different every single time I meet


    you."


    She withdrew her gaze, put down the coffee cup in her hand, and said slowly, "Men seem to like


    their first love very much."


    I was a little surprised by that as she continued on, "You''re somewhat simr to her. No wonder he


    seems to be really devoted to you and he doesn''t take me seriously. Perhaps it''s because I have


    nothing inmon with you all."


    Was she referring to Andrea?


    The waiter brought the coffee over. I disliked bitter things, so I just stirred my coffee a bit while


    quietly listening to her finish whatever she wanted to say.


    After noticing that I seemed to have nothing to say to her, she could not help looking at me, asking,


    "Aren''t you curious about why I suddenly asked you out?"


    I raised my chin and looked at her indifferently. "Why did you ask me out here, then?"


    She suddenly burst intoughter, eximing, "You seem quite calm about this!"


    I stirred the coffee in my hands, keeping quiet.
