After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 587

Chapter 587 Susan Realizes the Change in Her

Susan would never be in contact with Manuel except at work.

So she deemed that must be the way he handles his colleague relations, which had a sense of distance but courteous. Never did she think Manuel would accompany her to eat at Heroic, a restaurant famous for its spicy food.

If she had known he would have said yes, she might not have chosen this restaurant.

Manuel didn't like spicy food.

Soon she realized that she started to care about Manuel. Probably, it was because of his good performance on the task, she thought.

Indeed, Manuel impressed her today and he was highly rated by her this time.

"What do you eat?" Susan ordered her dish and asked Manuel, who was sitting opposite her.

"Whatever."

"You still don't eat chilli?" she asked.

"You don't need to worry about me." Manuel sounded very indifferent.

Susan rolled her eyes.

It was just a polite question for her.

In the end, Susan ordered two dishes without any chilli. And after the order, she let the waiter take some beer.

"Do you drink?" Susan asked.

"NO."

So she drank herself.

Looking at her, Manuel wanted to say something but bit the words back.

A few minutes later, the dishes ordered began to be served on the table one after another.

Susan start devouring the food

Manuel didn't eat much, for he was allergic to chillies-the dishes served at first had chillies in them.

Susan ignored him.

They both keep silent during the meal.

Suddenly, Susan's phone rang. Feeling somewhat annoyed, She frowned, took off her disposable gloves reluctantly and put down the spicy shrimp. Finally, the phone got through.

Susan glanced at Manuel and answered the phone, "Hi, Henry."

Manuel still kept a poker face. To Susan's surprise, he picked up a pair of gloves on the table and peeled the shrimp.

There were heavy chillies in the dish with shrimp.

Somehow, she went absentminded, since she saw Manuel peeling the shrimp with his clean and slender hands elegantly and the shrimp he peeled was very beautiful, not as messy as those she peeled.

"Susan?" Henry found she was not listening.

Susan quickly took her eyes off Manuel and said, "What did you just say?"

Henry furrowed his eyebrows, for he felt that Susan cared for him so little recently.

"I said, where are you now?"

"I'm having dinner."

"Dinner Now?"

"Well, today's work was just finished with Manuel. We dealt with some troublemakers." Susan explained.

"Where?"

"Heroic," Susan answered.

"Alone?"

"No, he's here too." She answered frankly.

Henry was holding the phone tighter, feeling rather irritated because he knew the problem about the troublemakers had been resolved by Manuel so quickly and that Susan was still together with Manuel at this hour.

So she was distracted by Manuel while talking with him.

"Would you like to come for dinner?" Susan seemed to feel a trace of Henry's emotion.

She understood Henry since they were in a relationship.

If it were Henry and another woman dining alone together, perhaps she would also be jealous.
