Dear Sweetheart Chapter 55

Chapter 55 Such A Cheapskate

After Curtis left with Kristie, Rayna placed a hand on her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

Thank goodness they’re gone. It would’ve been so awkward. The food is amazing though, but it’s no surprise considering this hotel only hires the most renowned chefs. I should call Jessica and tell her that I’ll be bringing her lunch when Mr. Tylinski gets the bill.

Soon, a waiter came over with some food that had been packed up and handed them to her. “Here are the seafood spaghetti and desserts you ordered to be taken out, Miss.”

“Thank you.”

With a smile, Rayna turned around and was about to leave with the food when two women walked over from the opposite direction. One of them who had a long, tight-fitting dress on and was pushing a baby stroller turned out to be Astrid.

Rayna pretended not to see her, but as soon as she headed over, Astrid glanced up and noticed her. “Oh? You’re here too, Rayna?”

Rayna could only stop in her tracks and nod. “Julian and I are already divorced, so maybe you should just call me Ms. Garland.”

She had stopped contacting Astrid ever since she paid the latter a hundred thousand to help her film the incident where Rolanda had cheated in the card game. She had also helped Astrid move her brother to Norwal City.

Yet, here they were bumping into each other again.

Realization dawned on Astrid. “I’m so sorry, Ms. Garland. I forgot about the divorce. Anyway, would you mind staying for a chat? I have something to talk to you about.”

Despite sounding polite, she wasn’t giving Rayna a chance to say no and had already told her friend to give them some privacy.

She then pointed to where Rayna had been seated earlier. “How about we sit here, Ms. Garland?”
