Chapter 1789

Had he missed this place? Was the new dish up to standard? Clearly, these two were regulars here.

The woman was the first to emerge from the booth, a subtle smile playing on her lips. She was dressed in black jeans, a blue V–neck sweater, with a beige down jacket draped over her arm seemingly ready to be worn

Following closely behind her was a man, not only was his voice familiar to Rose, but his silhouette was also something she had known all too well Dressed in a black suit, he too had a coat draped over his arm, and in his other hand, he was holding a woman’s handbag

Once the woman was dressed, he handed her the bag. Thank you” the woman said, looking up at the man with a smile.

The man’s usually store face lit up with a smile that seemed glaringly out of place c2

Winston didn’t recognize the woman, but upon seeing the man, he couldn’t help but chuckle under his breath

Momson always had a knack for hitting where it hurt the most. She pulled a wry smile, her face etched with irony

It was only a moment, but in his dark eyes, she saw a drastic shift from the warmth of summer to the freezing cold of winter. His face was devoid of any expression, as cold

as ice

She let out a low chuckle the contrast couldn’t have been more stark

Noticing Roses change in demeanor, Winston furrowed his brows, reaching out to touch her hand only to find it shockingly cold. He leaned in closer, whispering. ‘Are you alright?

Rose blinked, and slowly withdrew her hand from Winston’s arm. She managed a small smile. “I’m fine.”

The woman by Morrison’s side seemed taken aback when she saw Rose Her gaze lingered on Winston before finally landing on Rose. She then calmly approached Rose, her face adorned with an impeccable smile and soft–spoken words. Rose, its been a white

Rose gave her a steady look before finally breaking into a smile, “Indeed, it’s been a while. Her face bore an equally impassive smile, equally unassailable. When did you get back?

Roses question seemed to catch the woman off guard, “A couple of days ago

“I see Rose nodded her smile widening ever so slightly. “Had your meal?”

“Yes, we were just about to leave

“Alright, I just got here. We’ll catch up some other time

“Sure

The woman had been largely passive throughout the conversation. After exchanging a nod with the woman, Rose turned to Winston and said, “Let’s go, swiftly moving past the woman standing opposite her and striding forward.
