Being Pursued By Ex-husband novel Chapter 663

Chapter 663 What Are You Thinking

“We're here.” When Rowen's voice echoed from behind, only then did Celine come back to her senses.

He rode his bike while she sat on the crossbar at the front of his motorcycle. His every breath brushed against her hair closely and clearly. Throughout the journey, she sat there almost completely still, her body rigid.

Upon hearing his words, Celine quickly jumped off the vehicle.

It was only then that she realized Rowen had brought her to the riverside.

There were quite a few people by the river on the weekend. However, compared to the bustling Lovebirds Street, the riverside seemed much more empty and serene.

Rowen locked the car. “Didn't you want some peace and quiet?”

Celine paused for a moment. “Ah, oh, t-thank you.”

Rowen didn't respond. He took out his phone and walked over to a lounge chair and settled down.

A row of trees lined the riverbank, with leisure chairs nestled under their shade. As the river breeze passed by, it brought a refreshing coolness.

Celine walked up to the railing by the river. The sun at three in the afternoon was particularly dazzling. As she was away from the shade of the trees, she found the heat unbearable after standing there for just a short while.

Rowen glanced at her, a look flickering in his captivating eyes slightly. Just as he was about to approach her, he saw her walking back toward him.

Celine returned, glanced at Rowen, hesitated momentarily, and sat down next to him.

Although, she chose to sit at the very end of the lounge chair. The furniture was one meter and twenty centimeters long, which meant there was a gap of seventy to eighty centimeters between them.

On her journey there, she had actually calmed down quite a bit.

She took out her phone and saw a few messages from Harper telling her to rest well.

Celine pursed her lips, wanting to explain, but every word she typed was eventually deleted by her.

In the end, Celine didn't explain anything and exited the chat page. She looked down at her phone, unsure of what to do next.

In a moment of distraction, her pinky accidentally tapped on the game icon. Its sudden startup sound startled Celine.

She looked at Rowen in embarrassment, only to find him listening to music through his wireless earphones with closed eyes.

Celine breathed a sigh of relief, staring at the game login page. Then, she realized that it had been a while since she last logged into the game.

Since there was nothing much for her to do, and she was still feeling all messed up, she decided to play a round.

It had been over a week since she last logged into the game. The profile picture of her friend, Xen, was still dark.

Celine had reached King rank, thanks to Xen. After playing the game for a while, she was no longer the novice she once was. However, her skills clearly did not match her rank.

Luckily, she played as a support, and she kept in mind what Xen had told her. Although she might not play exceptionally well, she was not too bad either.

However, without Xen, who always carried her, Celine lost two games in a row playing as a support.

If she lost one more game, she would be demoted from King rank.

After Rowen rested his eyes for a moment, he opened his eyes and noticed Celine was being unusually quiet. As such, he glanced at her and saw her engrossed in a mobile game.

He raised an eyebrow, his gaze sweeping over the ID above the hero operated by Celine. The name “Linnie” instantly caught his eye.

Rowen was taken aback for a moment before he stared at Celine. A strange feeling welled up in his heart. Well, what a coincidence.

His stare was too conspicuous, resulting in Celine blushing. Inadvertently, she felt as if she could die from embarrassment.

Celine lifted her head, looking at Rowen with embarrassment. “I... I had nothing to do.”

“Mhm,” Rowen responded nonchalantly as if he didn't care at all about what she was doing.

Feeling somewhat embarrassed, Celine played absentmindedly for the next ten minutes. Unsurprisingly, she lost the game, and her rank dropped from King to Duke.
