Chapter 380 For Fanny, He Wouldn’t Mind

When Jane hung up on Christopher for the third time impatiently, her friend beside her leaned in.

Her friend, Harley Swift, handed a glass of wine to her and casually inquired, “Who keeps calling you?” Frowning, Jane took the glass of wine from her friend and replied, “It’s someone from a blind date. Harley suddenly became intrigued, sitting up a bit straighter. “Blind date? The one who dared to hit you?”

It was hard for her not to focus on Jane’s face as she asked this. Despite the dim lighting of the bar, she could still see the imprint of a slap on Jane’s face.

Noticing Harley’s gaze, Jane frowned and said. “I hit him back much harder.”

Even though she had returned the slap several times over, the thought of the slap mark left by Christopher, which had not yet faded, made her realize that he had not held back at all.

Feeling infuriated, she downed another glass of wine.

She had seen Christopher‘ text invitation before, but she had chosen not to respond. Unsure of his intentions in contacting her now, she preferred to ignore him.

Her father had mentioned that the Sanders Family was seeking a favor from them, so she could act entirely as she pleased.

Despite her father’s words, she hadn’t explicitly expressed her dislike for Christopher. She knew that even without him, her father would arrange another blind date for her.

However, not everyone would be as manageable as Christopher.

Just as Harley was about to say something. Jane’s phone lit up again. Harley decisively offered, “Jane, if you don’t want to answer, let me do it. I’ll give him a piece of my mind!”

Jane, having had a few too many drinks, didn’t catch what was said, especially with the sudden increase in the bar’s music volume.
