In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 1047

I smiled. “Since you have recommended it, I will definitely try it. Ms. Harrett, you seem to be very familiar with this restaurant.”

She replied with a smile, “Not really, but I’ve been here a few times. So, I remember the ones that I like and always recommend them to friends that come here.”

Surprisingly, Zelene was nothing like Rebecca. With Joe’s personality, I thought he would find someone similar to his ex-crush, but Zelene and Rebecca were like chalk and cheese.

After chattering for a bit, I stood up from my seat and headed to the restroom. When Ashton saw me leaving, he quickly stopped his conversation with Joe and wanted to accompany me, but I declined as I did not want to interrupt them.

A few minutes later, I stepped out of the restroom and bumped into Joe, who was leaning against the wall of the corridor. I thought he was waiting for someone, but I looked around and saw no one. Hmm, who is he waiting for?

After hesitating for a moment, I walked towards him and asked out of politeness, “Are you waiting for Ms. Harrett?”

He lifted his gaze and looked at me coldly. “I’m waiting for you.”

I furrowed my brows, puzzled. “Why?” I don’t think we have anything to talk about. Joe had never liked me. All these years we rarely interacted with one another even though he was my husband’s close friend.

“Can I help you with anything?” I asked, stopping in my tracks.

He arched an eyebrow and cut to the chase. “Can we talk somewhere else?”

I don’t think I have a choice, do I? So, I nodded and gestured. “Sure.”
