Chapter 1923
Renee wasn't angry or surprised-she had expected that her friend might not come. After half an hour, almost all the customers in the dessert shop had left except for her. To anybody else, it looked like she was there for the free air-conditioning.
"Madam, you've been at the shop for more than two hours. Do you need any help?" A waiter came over and asked kindly.
"I'm waiting for someone." Renee looked up awkwardly and added, "Give me a taro tiramisu."
"Umm... Okay." The waiter nodded hesitantly and left.
Renee raised her brows, looking around. They couldn't kick her out as long as she kept ordering food.
Renee took out her phone and texted her friend. "Aren't you coming? The waiter said I've been here for too long... But it's alright-I'm a shameless person. I'll wait for you." She sent the message, but didn't get a reply.
Night was nearing, and the waiter kept glancing at Renee expectantly.
Finally, the windchime at the door rang as the door opened, and someone walked in.
"Welcome!" The waiter greeted the customer enthusiastically. The newcomer was a slim and gloomy woman with eyes like the moon. "Madam, how many people are with you?"
"The person I'm meeting is already here," the woman said calmly and headed straight to Renee, who had waited there for almost half a day.
"There you are, Joanne!" Renee stood up and smiled brightly. "I knew a kind person like you wouldn't ignore me." Joanne stood across Renee, her expression cautious as she asked coldly, "Is there anything you want with me?" "Do I need a reason to see you?' Renee stood up and pulled out the chair in front of Joanne. She reached out to take Joanne's bag. "Sit down. You came a long way, so you shouldn't be standing around. There are all kinds of tasty desserts in this shop you should try!" Cóntent belongs to NovélDráma. OrgContent © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
"Don't touch me." Joanne scowled guardedly. She placed her bag beside her and slowly sat down. "I came to tell you not to contact me again. Do me a favour and leave me alone."
The atmosphere became tense, and Renee said nothing as she used her phone to order dessert for Joanne.
"Just have something small to eat. I told you the food here is very good. If you're in a bad mood, you should have some dessert. That's how I relieve stress!"
Joanne pursed her lips and smiled reluctantly. "Who told you I'm in a bad mood? I've been doing what I like with no one to disturb me, so I'm in a great mood."
Renee laughed awkwardly. "I guess seeing me ruined your mood then. I'm sorry!"
