After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 939

Sidney and Diana, along with a few others, were seated at a nearby table, eating. Sidney was sitting sideways, facing away from Maria, so while she noticed him instantly, he hadn’t spotted her.

Maria quickly averted her gaze after a brief glance.

"Let’s sit over there," Tiana said, linking arms with Maria and leading her toward a window seat.

Coincidentally, the spot was diagonally across from Sidney’s table.

Maria nodded and followed.

Once seated, Tiana quickly pulled Herman over to sit next to Maria.

Whether by coincidence or design, Herman’s presence perfectly blocked Sidney’s view. Even if he turned to look, it was unlikely he would notice Maria.

Maria’s eyes flickered briefly, but she didn’t say a word.

Tiana took the seat opposite them and waved for a waiter. This place offered both a buffet and table service.

Tiana ordered a few dishes and then turned to Maria. "What would you like?"

"I’ll take a look at the menu," Maria replied.

"Alright."

Tiana handed her the menu, then immediately pulled out her phone, giving Herman a pointed look.

Herman sighed, pulling out his phone to see Tiana’s messages.

Tiana texted, "How do you feel about my friend?"

"She’s great," Herman replied.

"Don’t you want to take things further? Make her my sister-in-law?" Tiana asked.

Herman responded, "Whether or not she becomes your sister-in-law depends on you."

Tiana nearly squealed, sending another message, "Ahhhh!"

"So, you do like her, right?" she added. "You can’t fool me with that look in your eyes!"
