All the couples in the restaurant looked over and whispered to each other, wondering whether Dillan had made a successful proposal.
Not far from them sat Kylan and his wife.
Kylan had just secured his wife’s forgiveness and pleaded with her to join him for dinner.
Seeing Gilda in the restaurant with another man, Kylan took out his phone and sent a photo of Dillan’s back to Jensen.
And Kylan texted: [Dude, you see, your ex–wife has found a new guy. He looks quite handsome.]
When Jensen, who was in a meeting at Harrington Corporation, received the message, his face instantly darkened. Irritated by the photo, he slapped the phone heavily on the table, which startled those who were having the meeting.
Jensen picked up the coat on the back of his chair and said in a cold voice, “Go ahead. I have something to do
Then he left the conference room and rushed to the restaurant.
At this time, Dillan sat up straight and said seriously, “Gilda, maybe I looked reckless in confessing my love to you in public, which left you a bad impression. I apologize.”
“I accept your apology. Just don’t do it again,” said Gilda.
Dillan looked at Gilda seriously and said, “But I really admire you.
“At the auction, I was attracted by your cleverness when you easily made that foolish woman buy the bracelet.
“On the rooftop, your fragile appearance distressed me. I believe I know women very well and have been on numerous dates, but I never cared about someone’s feelings as much as I did that night.
“When I went back to Allath, I saw you singing on the stage, and I was completely charmed by you…
Facing Dillan’s sincere confession, Gilda remained unmoved. She took a sip of wine and smiled, saying, “I was divorced. Do you know it?”
Dillan had prepared for this question and immediately showed his determination.
“Even if you’ve divorced, you’re perfect in my heart,” said Dillan.
“Don’t you know who my ex–husband is?” Gilda asked.
“I don’t care who he is. A man who didn’t cherish a perfect woman like you doesn’t deserve to be mentioned here,” Dillan replied.

Dillan had his people inquire about Gilda’s information, but he only knew that she was working as a general manager at Glory Corporation and that she was divorced. Then he excitedly left to order flowers to confess his love without finishing hearing the whole story.
Right at that moment, Gilda noticed Jensen approaching with a somber expression, a glint of interest crossing her features as she inquired, “Aren’t you concerned that I was to blame for that failed marriagel
“Never! The man who divorced you must be a fool. You are so perfect, and he will regret losing you.” Dillan was so excited that he was about to stand up when he said this.
Hearing this, Gilda raised her chin and said to Dillan, “He’s right behind you.”
Dillan then turned around subconsciously. He didn’t realize who Gilda was referring to when he saw Jensen’s face.
Then he greeted the latter. “Dude, it’s nice to meet you here.”
Jensen didn’t say anything. He just frowned and looked at Gilda with gloomy eyes.
