Silvia also thought about how to deal with Ethan. If she kept avoiding him, it would give people the wrong impression that she had some other feelings for Ethan. Therefore, it would be better for her to simply get along with him openly like they used to.So, she answered Ethan’s call. Ethan then said that he had arrived at the hotel and asked her where she was now so that he could go and pick her up to go for lunch. Silvia answered him truthfully, “I’m working overtime at the factory, so I’m afraid I won’t have time to have lunch with you.”Ethan was dissatisfied and protested, “You’re really working overtime? I thought you were deliberately saying that you’re going to work overtime so that I would back off.”Silvia was speechless. She did say that on purpose that day, but after coming to the factory today, she found that there were several new emails, all of which were pushing the delivery date forward, so she could only spend her time and energy keeping an eye on the workers in
Therefore, she could only choose to go to Ethan’s place to eat. Silvia felt that Ethan must also be experienced after so many years and would not let the media take pictures of his whereabouts so easily. Moreover, those reporters probably thought that Ethan would never come to such a small third-tier city.However, Silvia did not expect that instead of running into reporters at the hotel where Ethan was staying at, she would run into Julian instead. When she walked into the hotel lobby carrying a large bag of barbecue and a pack of beer in plastic bags, Julian happened to be walking outside with a few men who looked like his business clients. They met face to face in the lobby. As for why she was carrying beer, it was because Ethan had specifically asked for this kind of beer. In fact, he could have ordered the canned or bottled one directly from the hotel, but he had to ask for the one in a pack. In fact, Silvia really wanted to pretend as if she did not see Julian, but they
Julian thought that it would likely be too late if Ryan only apologized to Silvia he returned. As Ryan’s friend, he had no choice but to help Ryan appease Silvia first.But he did not expect that he would run into Silvia in this manner before he could look for her.After Julian sent the message, he went out to meet his clients, intending to treat them to dinner. The group got into the car, and the driver drove them away.Julian received a phone call from Ryan when he was on the way. Ryan asked him directly, “What do you mean by sending me that photo?”Ryan could obviously tell who the person in the photo was at a glance.Julian replied lazily, “It’s nothing interesting. I happened to come here to check on a project and ran into Silvia at the hotel.”“Why is she at the hotel?”Ryan, who was far away abroad, was surprised by Silvia’s appearance at the hotel. Her family lived there, so she did not need to stay in a hotel.However, the next second after asking Julian, he suddenly
He’d only felt that she was very tired and exhausted that night so he only said those words because he was distressed. In Ethan’s opinion, Silvia was a wonderful and beautiful girl who should have a bright future, just like Miya and Jane.However, she became a housewife and she was also a housewife who was not loved. How could Ethan, who adored her, not feel distressed? Moreover, aside from feeling distressed, he also felt pity for her. So, when the two met again, Ethan’s gaze fell on her unrestrainedly as he carefully observed her. Silvia felt uncomfortable being stared at by Ethan, and she took advantage of the situation to raise the bag of barbecue in her hand, covering her face and diverting Ethan’s sight. “For you!”Ethan raised his hand to take the bag from her. After knowing each other for so long, how could he fail to see that she was deliberately using this method to stop him from looking at her? The corners of his mouth curled up slightly as he smiled helplessly
Autumn was quite angry.“Okay, I’ll wait for your call then.”She then hung up the phone. Silvia shook her head helplessly. She really could not do anything once Autumn lost her temper.After turning around and returning to the chair, she smiled apologetically at Ethan.“Sorry, my daughter called and insisted on having a video call with her grandfather and grandmother.”“It’s fine.”Ethan smiled.“I secretly ate two of the meat skewers when you were on the phone. Oh, I really missed this.”Silvia teased him, “You actually miss eating barbecue? You’re really useless.”Ethan leaned against the back of the chair, looked at her, and smiled as he said, “I used to think that I’d become a frequent visitor here and would come and eat here often. Unexpectedly, it took me more than five years to finally eat it again.”Silvia obviously understood the meaning behind Ethan’s words. He was saying that he thought that once he got together with her, he would often accompany her back to visit
Autumn simply refused to listen to Silvia.“I want to see Grandpa and Grandma! I don’t want to talk to them on the phone!”Ethan, who was opposite, could obviously hear Autumn making a fuss on the other end of the line. He simply sat there and fixed his deep and cold gaze on her the whole time.Silvia got a little annoyed because of Autumn, so she reprimanded her coldly, “Autumn!”She did not understand why her daughter was being so ignorant tonight and had to make a fuss about having a video call with her parents. However, as soon as Silvia scolded her like this, Autumn burst into tears immediately. Ophelia took over the phone and said, “Silvia, you can just have dinner with your friend. I will soothe Autumn so you don’t have to worry.” Autumn had already made such a big fuss, so Silvia was no longer in the mood to continue eating. She simply said to Ophelia, “Thank you, Aunt. Please tell Autumn that I’ll go back home soon.”“Okay, I’ll hang up first then.”Ophelia hung up
She did not know how they would react if they knew that she was in contact with Ethan again.Her parents knew of Ethan because they came here for an outing when they were in university. She’d invited everyone to her house for a meal at the time. There were four people from her dormitory during that outing: Ethan, Caleb, and a few of their friends. Therefore, her parents met Ethan. Everyone, especially Wendy, was constantly teasing and matching her with Ethan, so her parents also knew of Ethan’s feelings for her. It was just that after marrying Ryan, she lost contact with Ethan, and the topic of Ethan simply ended there. The reason why her parents were optimistic about Ethan was because they felt that they were of the same age, had the same family background, looked good together, and were both highly motivated. Most importantly, Ethan liked Silvia so much that he would definitely love her very much in the future. For parents, it was very good for their daughter to find such a
When he was drunk, he even said that he still could not forget her, and was severely reprimanded by Rosaline. After that, Rosaline would only hang up immediately if he called to say such things again.Rosaline had no choice but to answer his calls. After all, they had a daughter together, and sometimes Rosaline would worry that he was calling to ask about their daughter. When Rosaline told her about these things, Silvia was very angry, but she did not expect to encounter such a situation herself. Upon thinking of Rosaline, Silvia remembered that she hadn’t seen Rosaline since she left Detroit, so she called her. Rosaline then said from the other end of the line, “I was just about to call you. I’m on my way back from Detroit to visit my child. Let’s have a meal together tomorrow if you’re free.”Rosaline and Silvia used to be classmates in high school, so Rosaline’s hometown was also here. Therefore, Rosaline had placed her daughter here in her hometown after her divorce. Her pare
