Chapter 33
“I saw a recommendation online, there’s a local restaurant that looks really yummy, but it’s a bit far, and we have to wait in line if we get there late!”
These past few years, Rosalynn had been with Wayne and met people who were either scheming or playboys.
It’s been so many years since she’d seen someone as pure and innocent as Evan.
Occasionally, Rosalynn seemed to see her own self before the big change in her life, who was passionate and honest.
“Alright, since I’m treating you to dinner, you get to decide what we eat.”
Rosalynn patiently nodded as if coaxing a child.
Evan couldn’t be happier.
Rosalynn grabbed her bag and left with Evan.
It’s autumn in the Q City, and streets and alleys were filled with yellow leaves, creating an
excellent ambiance.
Rosalynn sat in the passenger seat, listening to Evan excitedly introduce the attractions they passed by.
He appeared to have prepared quite well.
Rosalynn was lazy and not particularly enthusiastic in her responses.
However, Evan enjoyed her laziness.
“After this intersection, the traffic starts to get heavy,” said Evan, as he spotted a parking space and slowly pulled into it, “Rosalynn, let’s get out and walk for a bit?”
“Sounds good,” Rosalynn felt a bit uncomfortable in the car.
She felt like throwing up.
When she opened the car door and took a breath of the crisp autumn air with a hint of chilliness, the nauseous feeling immediately disappeared.
-Her baby was quite considerate of her.
Apart from occasional emotional outbursts that caused nausea, she felt fine most of the time.
Evan strode towards Rosalynn and walked with her, shoulder to shoulder, towards the
restaurant.
What they didn’t know was that someone was following them all the way.
14.37
Evan had reserved seats at the restaurant beforehand.
Upon arrival, they only had to wait for one table before sitting down.
This local restaurant mainly offered beef dishes.
Rosalynn didn’t have appetite, so she didn’t eat much. On the other hand, Evan happily tucked in.
After a pleasant lunch, they walked back to the car.
In between, Rosalynn answered two work calls. The second call was outrageous.
The caller was a general manager of a subsidiary of Bane Corporation, opened with, “Secretary Tesdal, we can’t reach President Silverman…”
Rosalynn coldly interrupted, “Sorry, please call the president’s office directly, I am no longer Mr. Silverman’s secretary.”
The caller hesitated, then acknowledged and hung up. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Evan couldn’t help saying, “Rosalynn, a strange woman at the dock told me a lot of bad things about you that day!”
Rosalynn glanced at him and looked ahead.
The autumn wind blew a bunch of fallen leaves on the ground.
“What did she say?” she asked.
“Forget it, it’s not important.” Evan was itching to slap himself. Why on earth did he bring that up?
“Were you trying to ask what my relationship with Wayne is?”
Evan hesitated. “Rosalynn, I…” He seemed a little flustered.
After all, it was prying into others’ privacy.
“I was indeed with Wayne for five years,” Rosalynn looked at Evan, her eyes clear and
candid.
Evan froze for a moment.
-Rosalynn wasn’t surprised at all. After all, she wasn’t some naive and innocent girl.
