Unconscious Husband: Meet Her Love In Silence

Marlowe asked.

But regret hit her as soon as the words left her mouth.

How could someone as wealthy as Mitchel be shopping for discounted bread? She immediately tried to cover up her blunder with a few more words.

Mitchel, however, didnt seem to find her words inappropriate.

With a smile, he explained, I found out that the desserts here are really good, so I come here occasionally to buy some.

This is the time I usually get off work.

Oh, I see, Marlowe said and then let out an awkward laugh.

I thought you were here to see Ariana.

She just left. I dont know if she drove herself, but you might still catch up with her if you hurry.

Mitchel placed a piece of caramel pudding on his tray and looked at her.

Youve misunderstood the situation.

Im not here to see Ariana.

Im just here to buy some desserts.

Mitchels reaction surprised Marlowe.

Usually, Mitchel always had a gentle smile when Ariana was mentioned.

Why now was his reaction so flat? Could it be that Mitchel and Ariana had a falling out? Wasnt she just upsetting Mitchel by bringing up Ariana? This was so awkward.

Marlowe reminded herself that she was an outsider and shouldnt pry into matters that didnt concern her.noveldrama

She wanted to change the topic, but as soon as she said those words, something felt off.

It sounded like she was insinuating that Mitchel was just using desserts as an excuse to see Ariana.

Oh no, what was she thinking? Why was she making the situation even more awkward? Marlowe was screaming inside, wishing she could disappear now.

Mitchel, on the other hand, remained unfazed.

He picked up a piece of cake and placed it on his tray before saying, Eating desserts can bring me a sense of joy and relaxation.

Marlowe didnt say anything else, afraid that she might say the wrong thing again.

She instead picked up a tray and focused on selecting the items she wanted.

Soon, they both paid their respective bills and walked out of the shop in silence. The cold wind hit them as soon as they stepped outside.

Marlowe, who was dressed lightly, gasped.

Mitchel, noticing this, said, How about I give you a ride home? Where do you live? Not comfortable with Mitchel seeing her humble home, Marlowe quickly said, Theres really no need to trouble yourself.

I can take the bus home.

Marlowe then saw the bus approaching, so she quickly said her goodbye to Mitchel and ran to catch the bus.

Mitchel didnt leave right away, watching Marlowe.

When he saw Marlowe wave at him, he chuckled and waved back.

He turned to leave only after the bus began to move.
