Chapter 63: Shirley’s Man Brought Another Woman to the Restaurant
At around 11 a.m., Bryan sent a driver over to the Thomas household to pick Sabina up.
Upon getting on the car, Sabina was slightly disappointed to find out that it was only a driver who came
to pick her up. She had initially thought that Bryan would send Jordan over.
She knew that even getting Bryan to pick her up was a privilege.
However, Jordan himself was a very important assistant to Bryan, and hence if Jordan came to pick her
up, it would also be something to be proud of.
But thinking about the fact that she would get to meet Bryan again very soon, her unhappiness
immediately dissipated.
In about an hour’s time, she reached Phoenix Restaurant.
A black Rolls Royce rolled past her, and stopped at the car park at the outside compound.
The passenger seat opened and Bryan got out. After getting down, Bryan didn’t walk over immediately,
but instead took out a pack of cigarettes and stuffed one into his mouth.
Sabina jogged slowly over, and when she arrived by his side, she said shyly, “Bryan, have you finished
with your work?”
Bryan took out a lighter, lighted his cigarette and inhaled deeply, then only replied with a short “yes”
and said, “Go in.”
These three words were not particularly gentle, but it resulted in Sabina’s heart fluttering.
He had indeed changed.
He wouldn’t have talked to her this way in the past. For Sabina, this was already considered gentle.
Tryingly, she walked closer, and put her hands on his arm.
Bryan’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, his eyes swept across the hand that was on his arms. Unable to
contain himself, he coldly spat, “What’s that perfume you’re wearing?”
Hearing his cold questioning, Sabina retracted her hand and retreated a step, increasing the distance
between them, “I… I’m not wearing any perfume today, I didn’t do anything, Bryan.”
“Oh!” he replied softly, and walked hastily into the restaurant.
Sabina followed closely behind him, but didn’t dare to get any closer.
She knew these things couldn’t be hurried.
Bryan had been cold to her all this while, to let him change his perception of her would require more
time.
As long as he is willing to come out to meet her, she believed that it would not be long before he was
willing to accept her.
They had only taken a step into the restaurant when a white car stopped next to the Rolls Royce, and
the two kids on the car exclaimed in surprise, “It’s daddy.”
Shirley looked coldly over at the two silhouettes, her lips lifted in a mocking smile.
Mildred who was next to her, strained her neck to look at the man in the black shirt who had just walked
into the restaurant. From her estimation, his height looked about 1.85m, he had a charming elegance,
and a calm expression.
After that, she glanced at the woman that was following behind the man. She had an oval-shaped face,
large eyes, at the corner of her left eye was a mole. She looked innocent and beautiful.
However, when Mildred saw this woman, her face changed immediately, “That woman is your…”
She turned to look at Shirley.
“Yes.” It was only yesterday that he got his assistant to let her know he was outstation, she didn’t
expect that she would bump into him here having a meal with Sabina. This outstation excuse was
indeed sloppy.
Emma pouted and frowned angrily, “How can daddy be together with that woman, I don’t like him
anymore.”
Fuming, she continued mumbling about not liking daddy.
Jacob was also feeling angry.
Didn’t daddy watch yesterday’s entertainment news, how can he still be together with this woman,
what’s more they are having a meal together.
How can he even have an appetite when eating with this type of woman, this was terrible.
“I don’t like this kind of daddy anymore too.” Jacob pouted.
Mildred and Shirley turned over to look at the two fuming children.
Mildred said, “Maybe it is just a misunderstanding.”
“How can it be just a misunderstanding? He even lied to mummy that he will be outstation for a few
days, but he came here to date with this bad woman.” Emma was so angry that she was almost crying,
“We don’t want this daddy anymore.”
Emma unfastened her seatbelt, opened her door and got down from the car on her own.
Jacob on the other hand got down from the other side. Coincidentally, Jordan was standing outside.
The both of them exchanged glances for a few seconds.
After a while, Jordan came to his senses. As if he had a sudden realization, he turned to look towards
the direction of Bryan. He then turned back to look again at the white car, and his heart started beating
furiously.
Shit, shit, shit!
“Little… Little Jacob.”
“Hmph!” Jacob exclaimed, with his hands behind him, chin lifted slightly and his nostrils flared.
Jordan’s body trembled, oh dear, why did this expression look so familiar.
Before he had time to think further, Shirley and Mildred opened their doors at the same time.
He lifted his head to see Shirley looking at him. After closing her car door, she walked towards him.
Jordan felt that he himself was a living target and those in front of him were archers shooting at him
continuously. What’s more every shot was on point.
He swallowed, and respectfully called out, “Dr. Thomas.”
Holding Emma’s hands, Shirley walked towards Jordan and picked up Jacob’s hands. Her eyes cold,
she asked strangely, “Jordan, are you guys back from outstation?”
Jordan raised his hand, silently wiping his sweat, this question was specifically meant to ask him,
“Didn’t you say last night that Mr. Moore will be outstation for a few days?”
He gave a small smile awkwardly, “It’s like this, Mr. Moore had a sudden change in schedule, so he
didn’t have to go outstation.”
“Oh!” Shirley gave a silent reply, and laughed mockingly. Pulling her two children with her, she turned
around and said to Mildred, “Let’s eat next door, their dishes are good too.”
“That’s a pity, what was supposed to be a good meal is now ruined by these two pests.” Mildred had
always had a sharp tongue. From the conversation of the two children, she had already figured that
that was Shirley’s man from six years ago.
What’s more he was bringing another woman here for a private meal. This type of man, she would
destroy them whenever she saw one.
The corner of Jordan’s lips twitched, he lifted his head to look at the two adults and children walking
into the restaurant next door. He quickly fished out his phone to send Bryan a text message.
In the end, he realized his boss had left his phone in the car. Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
He took Bryan’s phone and hurriedly walked into Phoenix Restaurant.
As for Shirley, after they placed their order, the food arrived within twenty minutes. Emma wanted to
head to the toilet halfway, so Mildred took her and left their room.
Seeing them head out, Jacob put down his chopsticks and said, “Mummy, I want to pee too.”
“I’ll accompany you.”
“No need, I’ll go chase after Aunt Mildred.” Jacob quickly pulled open the room door and ran out.
There was a toilet on the second floor, seeing Mildred enter the washroom, Jacob quickly sneaked out,
and headed towards Phoenix Restaurant.
