Chapter 689


    After Queenie got the answer she wanted, she had no more intention of helping out. With that, she


    found an excuse to go to the washroom and left the kitchen.


    She did not realize Arielle was staring at her back figure for a long while.


    Arielle finished preparing a table full of dishes in the blink of an eye.


    Queenie pretended to be impressed. “Arielle, I didn’t know you’re so good at cooking. Usually, a beauty


    doesn’t cook this well.”


    Arielle let out a faint smile without saying anything.


    With Donovan present at the scene, even Henry started behaving cautiously. After taking only a few


    bites, he stood up and wanted to leave.


    Jared too had no intention to stay in the same room with Donovan any further. “We’ll excuse ourselves


    first.”


    With that, Trisha stood up also. “I’m done too.”


    Arielle knew they did not want to hang up with Donovan, and she did not stop them either. “Let me


    escort you guys down then.”


    “Okay.”


    Just then, Arielle shifted her gaze toward Donovan, waiting for him to say goodbye too.


    However, Donovan still sat at his seat, without any intention to leave.


    Meanwhile, Queenie lowered her head while eating without eye contact with Arielle.


    As such, Arielle had no choice but to send Jared and the rest down first.


    After the four of them left the scene, Queenie opened her mouth. “Mr. Baxter, I’m a straightforward


    person. Let’s cut to the chase.”


    Donovan could not wrap his head around it. “I’m sorry, Dr. Mill. I don’t get you.”


    Putting down her spoon, Queenie looked right into Donovan’s eyes. “Donovan, you have a thing for


    your student, don’t you?”


    Donovan’s heart skipped a beat as he furrowed his brows slightly


    Queenie’s words pierced through his heart like a merciless de.


    Initially, he thought he had feelings for Arielle merely because he had not been with a woman for a long


    time. That was why he agreed to a blind date with Queenie.


    But after he met Arielle in the supermarket, he suddenly found his true feelings for her.


    And now, Queenie’s words made him even more sure


    about it.


    Yes. I’ve fallen for Arielle.


    Nheless, as most people disapproved of a teacher student rtionship; naturally, Donovan would

    not be honest with Queenie. Plus, he did not know Queenie for


    long yet.


    Donovan uttered faintly, “I like all my students. That way I could serve them better.”


    “Haha.” Queenie let out a chuckle. “Donovan, there’re only two of us here. There’s no need to hide


    from me. You like Arielle, don’t you?”.


    A dark expression loomed over Donovan’s face, but he did not refute anymore.


    Upon seeing that, Queenie continued to speak, “To be frank. There is someone I like. I went on a blind


    date with you because my mom kept forcing me. However, since you got someone you like too, let’s be


    friends from now on.”


    After pondering for a few seconds, Donovan nodded. “Okay.”


    Queenie’s lips curled into a smile.


    She took a perfume bottle out from her pocket and handed it to Donovan. “This is my gift for you as a


    friend.”


    Donovan rejected right away. “Thanks. But I’m sorry, I don’t have a habit of using perfume. I appreciate


    your gesture, though.”


    Queenie raised her brows slightly. “This is no ordinary perfume. I made it. I know some ancient


    Chanaean medicine. Spray a little on the other people, and it will make them hallucinate and fall in love


    with you.”
