Wooing My Ex-Wife

That morning, Charles found out that Whitney had resigned from the oceanarium three days ago. He never expected to meet her at Athena Restaurant, let alone for her to work as a waitress there.

Whitney nervously adjusted her waitress apron and maintained a submissive demeanor. “My situation… is rather complex.”

Jessamyn soon realized that the trio were acquainted. However, she was still displeased. “Ms. Zendy, this woman appears to be around my age or perhaps even a bit older. Why did you address her as ‘Whitney’ and call me ‘Ms. Cloud’?”

Although the waitress had a pleasant appearance, she seemed too ordinary and couldn’t compare to Jessamyn, the daughter of the prestigious Cloud family.

“I don’t judge people by their looks but by their character. Whitney has a kind heart; she’s like a fairy. And, in my opinion, she’s even prettier than you.”

Jessamyn’s face darkened at once. “Are you implying that she has a good heart while I don’t?”

Zendaya raised an eyebrow and replied, “I never said that. Ms. Cloud, you can’t blame me for making your own inference.”

How dare she compare me to a waitress? I’m the esteemed daughter of the Cloud family! Has Zendaya gone blind?

Despite her annoyance, Jessamyn chose to keep silent as she was aware of Zendaya’s identity.

The girl hopped down from Charles’ arms and ran to Whitney. She grabbed her hand and said, “I went to the oceanarium this morning, but I didn’t see you. Uncle Charles told me you’re going back to your hometown and probably won’t be coming back. I didn’t expect to see you here, Whitney!”

Over the past few years, Whitney had taken special care of Zendaya’s pet dolphin at the oceanarium.

Furthermore, Charles had shared with Zendaya that Whitney had saved her from a potential accident, preventing her from falling into the water when she was just a year old. Since that incident, Zendaya had come to see Whitney as her older sister and a dear friend.

Whitney bent down and patted Zendaya’s head fondly.
