Chapter 689
After Queenie got the answer she wanted, she had no more intention of helping out. With that, she found an excuse to go to the washroom and left the kitchen.
She did not realize Arielle was staring at her back figure for a long while.
Arielle finished preparing a table full of dishes in the blink of an eye.
Queenie pretended to be impressed. “Arielle, I didn’t know you’re so good at cooking. Usually, a beauty doesn’t cook this well.”
Arielle let out a faint smile without saying anything.
With Donovan present at the scene, even Henry started behaving cautiously. After taking only a few bites, he stood up and wanted to leave.
Jared too had no intention to stay in the same room with Donovan any further. “We’ll excuse ourselves first.”
With that, Trisha stood up also. “I’m done too.”
Arielle knew they did not want to hang up with Donovan, and she did not stop them either. “Let me escort you guys down then.”
“Okay.”
Just then, Arielle shifted her gaze toward Donovan, waiting for him to say goodbye too.
However, Donovan still sat at his seat, without any intention to leave.
Meanwhile, Queenie lowered her head while eating without eye contact with Arielle.
As such, Arielle had no choice but to send Jared and the rest down first.
After the four of them left the scene, Queenie opened her mouth. “Mr. Baxter, I’m a straightforward person. Let’s cut to the chase.”
Donovan could not wrap his head around it. “I’m sorry, Dr. Mill. I don’t get you.”
Putting down her spoon, Queenie looked right into Donovan’s eyes. “Donovan, you have a thing for your student, don’t you?”
