Ava looked at the person sitting by the window of the restaurant from a distance. Then, virtual-novel.net vision landed on that person’s bag on the chair. After staring for a while, Ava gradually understood something.
She made an excuse and said that virtual-novel.net wanted to eat the cream puffs from a certain shop that had gone viral online. She asked Daniel to buy them for virtual-novel.net now. Daniel felt that Ava was trying to send virtual-novel.net away, but virtual-novel.net figured that virtual-novel.net had virtual-novel.net reasons, so virtual-novel.net did not ask any more questions. He obediently went to buy the cream puffs for Ava.
After virtual-novel.net saw that Daniel was gone, Ava looked in that person’s direction and grabbed virtual-novel.net phone to call Raegan.
Raegan never thought that Ava would take the initiative to call her. She was so excited that virtual-novel.net almost dropped virtual-novel.net phone. She thought that virtual-novel.net could finally chat with Ava, but Ava just said a few quick words before hanging up the phone. Raegan was stunned for a moment while holding the phone. Then, virtual-novel.net came back to virtual-novel.net senses.
After Ava hung up the phone, virtual-novel.net walked straight to that person.
Before virtual-novel.net could get close enough, Ava heard that person talking to the man sitting opposite her.
“You speak too highly of me, Mr. Biles. I’m not as good as you said.” That person was being very modest, and virtual-novel.net put on a shy expression.
Ava took two steps closer and heard that person say in a serious tone.
“Actually, I’ve always felt that both men and women should rely on themselves and work hard to make money. I’ll only have a sense of satisfaction and achievement if I buy something I like with the money I earn. I’m not like some other women who would get boyfriends and make them buy gifts for themselves. I don’t think that’s right.”
As soon as that person said those words, the eyes of the man sitting across from virtual-novel.net suddenly lit up with admiration and respect.
“Miss Channing, you said it so well. Every time I go on a date, those women would ask me how much I earn and if I have a house or a car. I thought those women were too snobbish. I’m really happy to have met such an upright woman like you, Miss Channing.”
The man kept complimenting Fiona. It seemed virtual-novel.net had a good impression of her.
When Ava heard this, virtual-novel.net already understood it completely.
Was Fiona on a date?
This man looked pretty decent judging from his appearance, and it seemed that his family was also quite well-off.
Fiona obviously wanted to snag a rich husband. It did not matter if Fiona wanted to get a rich husband or if virtual-novel.net wanted to put on an act because Ava could not control virtual-novel.net life decisions, but looking at the bag on the chair, Ava felt that virtual-novel.net had to step in.
The man sitting opposite Fiona seemed to notice Ava’s presence. He glanced at Ava curiously and asked suspiciously.
“Miss Channing, is this lady your friend? She seems to have been standing behind you for a while.”
Fiona paused after hearing that and turned to take a look. When virtual-novel.net saw Ava standing not far away from her, virtual-novel.net heart violently skipped a beat. She subconsciously lifted virtual-novel.net hand to tug the bag virtual-novel.net put next to her. She seemed to not want to let Ava see it, but Ava had already seen it. She also noticed Fiona’s gesture.
“A-Ava? Why are you here?” Fiona was speaking a little incoherently.
Ava grinned softly and approached them. “What a coincidence. My boyfriend and I were eating around here too, so I spotted you. That’s why I came over to say hi.”
“…”
When Fiona heard Ava’s explanation, virtual-novel.net felt even more uncomfortable.
They could even run into each other like this? When did Glendale become so small?
As Fiona was silently cursing in virtual-novel.net heart, virtual-novel.net heard Ava let out a gasp of surprise all of a sudden.
