Facade of Love (Yvette Scott and Idris Young) novel Chapter 335

Chapter 335 Persistent Pursuer 

Idris paused for a moment, then his face lit up. He handed me the flowers and asked, What would you like to eat?” 

I pursed my lips and said a little nervously, Anything is fine.” 

He nodded, and his mood noticeably improved

In the car, I remained silent. Idris was typically a man of few words, and even when he was excited, he still did not say much. However, this time, he took the initiative to say, messaged you about the schedule of the Tully City vacation.” 

Speaking of which, I had almost forgotten about this. I checked my phone and nodded in acknowledgement

We reached our destination in no time

It was a garden restaurant with a peaceful ambience. The courtyard was filled with blooming flowers, and there was the soothing sound of flowing water. It felt like a cozy and inviting little garden

After being led to a windowside table by the waiter, he handed us the menus. Since I was not good at ordering, I passed it to Idris

He hesitated for a moment but did not say much. After giving some instructions to the waiter, they left us alone

The view outside the window was beautiful. I rested my chin on my hand and stared outside quietly. I liked it this way. Lately, there had been so many things going on, and it felt like it had been a long time since I could just sit quietly like this

Idris did not say anything either, merely sitting quietly beside me. We did not feel awkward in each other’s presence, and he did not seem bored by the silence as he sat there with me

If the waiter had not started serving the food, I would have been in a daze for a long time

Lake City might have its first snowfall the day after tomorrow. The wintersweets in the backyard of the old manor are about to bloom. If you like, we can go back together to see them, Idris said from across the table

I took a sip of the sweet and savory soup and paused for a moment. I had an instinctive desire to refuse. However, when the words reached the tip of my tongue, I ended up saying, Okay.” 

He seemed a little surprised that I had readily agreed, and his handsome lips curved slightly upwards as he said, Then I’ll pick you up from work the day after tomorrow.” 

I did not reply but could not help wondering why I had agreed to him

He did not press me for an answer and continued to serve me food

This interaction seemed to take us back to those two years of marriage we shared. The vibe was similar yet different.

During the meal, it was peaceful and harmonious. He did not bring up any other topics, and our conversations revolved around delicious dishes or beautiful sights. If I initiated a conversation, he would engage with me. If not, he would naturally change the subject

2/2 

Honestly, this side of Idris made me feel somewhat uncomfortable. In the past, he had been indifferent and aloof toward me. Now, although it seemed like there was no significant change, I could sense that he was making an effort to engage in more conversation with me

After finishing the meal, it was already quite late. He asked, Would you like to go out for a walk and digest your meal?” 

I shook my head. I looked at him and said, “I still have a lot of work to do, so I should head back early.” 

He nodded and gently suggested, Shall I drop you off?” 

I did not refuse and was about to walk with him to the parking lot when I heard a man’s voice not far away. Ms. Scott?” 

Turning to the source of the voice, I saw two familiar faces, Inch and Charlie

Charlie was sitting in a wheelchair, and the one who had called out to me was Inch

Both of them were goodlooking, but the age gap made it inevitable for one’s gaze to be drawn to Charlie at first glance, probably due to the difference in charisma

Seeing the two of them, I could not help but smile and exchange greetings with them

Inch pushed Charlie toward us. Upon noticing Idris behind me, Charlie maintained his composure, but his tone turned significantly colder as he said to me, Have you had dinner?” 

I nodded and asked, Are you having dinner nearby as well?”
