In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 398

“So, you paid a few thousand for the air ticket from K City to J City just to lunch with me?”

She raised her eyebrows. “Mmm-hmm!”

Evidently, I didn’t understand how the rich think.

After the meal, we had a nice chat. And yet, I still didn’t know what Emery was really up to.

When I saw that she didn’t intend to leave, I got worried and asked, “Ms. Moore, we…”

“He’s here! He’s here!” Ignoring me, she looked at the person entering the restaurant in excitement.

Stunned for a few seconds, I turned to see who it was that could drive her to react so hysterically.

A man with exquisite features and an elegant swagger entered.

Prince Charming!

That was the only word that flashed across my mind.

“He’s called Hunter Zane. What do you think? Is he handsome?” Emery asked as she couldn’t peel her eyes off him.

I turned around with my lips pursed. “Therefore, you invited me to spend half a day with you just because you’re waiting for him?”

She shrugged her shoulders with an innocent smile. “You have to understand—eating alone for such a long time feels really awkward.”

In the end, I was just here to be her wingman.

Whatever. I’m here anyway.

Looking at her, I couldn’t help but ask, “How long have you known each other?”

As if we had hit it off, she replied, “Four hundred and sixty-nine days. Including today, it is four hundred and seventy.”

That’s unusually precise.

After Hunter entered, he sat down at another table where a beautiful girl was waiting for him.

I looked at Emery in surprise. “You’re stalking him?”

“Nonsense. Don’t make it sound so degrading. This is a coincidental meeting.”

Haha!

“He is a professor at J University and the lady sitting with him is his student,” she explained while her eyes were still fixated on him.

“A nightclub boss and a professor. Tsk, you really are something, Ms. Moore,” I quipped.

She gave me the side-eye in response. When she saw me struggle to hold back my laughter, she snapped, “What are you talking about? We’re made for each other.”

I couldn’t help but cup my chin, “Didn’t you just reprimand me for indulging myself in love and hatred? What about you now?”
