Love’s Cunning Ruse ( Mr.Kieran And Julie )

Chapter 195

After getting Ivan all dolled up, Julie and Daphne glanced at their watches and realized it was almost time for their rendezvous. So, Julie and Daphne took Ivan and headed to the restaurant a bit early.

“Julie, you and my godson just chill at this table, if things get too heavy,”

“I’ll jump in to help!” Ivan said, glancing at the menu while talking to Daphne.

Daphne and Ivan high-fived in agreement, “You’re awesome!”

“Fix your collar!” Julie stood up to fix Daphne’s outfit.

Daphne gave Julie a bear hug, saying, “Darling, if the guy turns out to be a total dog, come over and pretend to be my true love, okay?”

“Sorry. I just don’t swing that way.” Julie patted Daphne’s shoulder, “Go get ’em, brave girl!”

“Hold the fort!” Daphne, clutching her newly bought mini skirt, gracefully walked over to the table next door and ordered a lemonade.

Truth be told, Daphne wasn’t too hopeful about this blind date. She had read too many horror stories online and was pretty much prepared for the worst.

Yet, to her surprise, the guy her mom’s friend set her up with wasn’t bad at all.

He was dressed casually in a white shirt, a dark grey blazer and black slacks. Not exactly a knockout, but he was neat and tidy. He seemed to recognize Daphne and gave her a slight smile.

Then he walked over to Daphne, holding a single red rose, and offered it to her like a true gentleman.

One rose, a polite gesture, not too over the top.

Based on the first impression, Daphne was quite pleased with him.

Julie also quietly observed the man across Daphne, he was way more promising than her last blind date.

“Hello, Ms. Daphne, I’m Nigel Ted.” The man flashed a set of pearly whites as he spoke, instantly winning brownie points.

“Hi, I’m Daphne.” She took the rose from him, giving him a slight smile. “Thank you.”

Julie thought it was a good start. She was about to order when she saw Ivan engrossed in his phone.
