Chapter 31
Wendy Lim unconsciously turned around.
As expected, she saw Charlie Hogg. He was wearing a dark blue suit, a tie, and a pair of cufflinks inlaid with red agate.
His assistant Farr Chiang followed him closely. They should come to have lunch here.
The manager of the restaurant was flattering them and then took them to the upstairs VIP room.
Wendy Lim noticed that the manager served Charlie Hogg and Farr Chiang more carefully when compared with his service to Ewan Shaw and her.
She couldn't help looking at the man's clearly defined face with no expression.
No emotions were showed on his face. He seemed to have been accustomed to such kind of flattery. Although he was rich and powerful, he never wanted to show off and didn't look down on others.
Realizing that she was distracted again, Wendy Lim looked away.
She found that Ewan Shaw had already been a few steps away so she sped up to catch up with him. All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
After sitting at the table, Ewan Shaw took the menu and started to order. He should often come here to eat.
Wendy Lim was also studying the menu. A vegetarian dish on it were not less than 50 dollars. This was the most famous restaurant in Ice City. You needed to book a table in advance if you wanted to have meals here. She got off the car quickly and didn't pay attention to the restaurant just now. Otherwise, she would definitely go to another restaurant.
"This is my treat. You can treat me next time!"
Ewan Shaw seemed to be able to read her mind. He slightly raised his eyebrows.
Wendy Lim was very grateful for him and did not refuse, because she really could not afford it.
Wendy Lim studies the menu for a while and didn’t order anything. She asked the waiter to give her a glass of water. When Ewan Shaw closed the menu, he remembered that her delivered lunch did not contain any meat. So he added a broth.
As soon as the waiter left, Ewan Shaw joked, "Why are you still so silly?! Other people will treat you badly."
Wendy Lim was a little embarrassed. She knew that he was talking about the last night.
She couldn't help thinking of the man who passed by indifferently when mentioned the last night...
Wendy Lim unconsciously clenched her fists. She raised her glass to Ewan Shaw, "Thanks for your help last night!"
Ewan Shaw also raised his glass. After putting it down, he paused for a moment and said, " When I saw you in the bar last night, I thought I got a wrong person at first! I thought you went to America with Felix..."
Wendy Lim held breath when she heard the name Felix again.
Of course, she was mentally prepared. When she met Ewan Shaw again, the person in the depth of her heart would be inevitably mentioned.
At that time, Ewan Shaw often teased her, but he also helped her a lot. When she was bullied by her neighbors, he would appear and proudly raise his military cap, "You are Felix's girlfriend. I will
protect you!"
Every time she heard his words, she felt coy and would chase after him. When Felix saw her, she blushed and ran home quickly...
The memory seemed to be engraved in her head, and her eyes were moist with tears...
"Does Felix know that you are working in the bar?"
"We haven't contacted each other for a long time..." Wendy Lim shook her head and looked up at him, "Ewan, can you do me a favor? Don't tell him that you met me, and don't tell him anything about me."
Ewan Shaw frowned and looked at her for a few seconds, and finally nodded.
The waiter sent the dishes to their table. Wendy Lim was totally distracted. She put down her chopsticks and said, "Excuse me. I want to go to the restroom!"
She kept putting cold water onto her face until she calmed down. She looked at herself in the mirror for a long time and then cleaned her face with tissue.
When she was about to walk out of the restroom, a hand suddenly reached out and pulled her over.
Wendy Lim was so frightened that she wanted to scream, but a hand covered her mouth and she couldn't make any sounds.
In her enlarged eyes were a man's clearly defined face and deep eyes.
It was Charlie Hogg!
