Benjamin sat in the car, staring at Grace through the car window, not daring to approach.
After some time, Grace and Xander finished their dinner happily. Then, they paid the bill and left.
Benjamin witnessed their whole interaction. Even when they had disappeared from his sight, he still hadn't come back to his senses.
Just then, his phone rang again. On the other end, Susan sounded somewhat angry. "Benjamin, where are you? Ms. Carter waited for you for so long and didn't see you. Do you know—"
Benjamin hung up on her again and turned his phone off before throwing it out of the window. He then immediately started the car and drove away.
…
In a private club, Frederick was enjoying himself. But the next moment, the door of the private room was suddenly pushed open.
"Who the hell doesn't know—" Before he could finish his sentence, he met Benjamin's eyes.
He quickly swallowed the words on the tip of his tongue and asked, "Bro, what brought you to me today?"
Benjamin hadn't been to the club for a long time. He had seemed like a completely different person since his divorce from Grace.
Without a word, Benjamin sat on the couch, poured a glass of wine, and drank it in one gulp.
Sensing his low mood, Frederick immediately asked others in the private room to leave.
When everyone was gone, he jokingly said, "Bro, let me guess, is this dejected look of yours related to your ex-wife again?"
Benjamin coldly replied, "Is it that obvious?"
Frederick shook his head helplessly. "I think you're infatuated. But she seems determined not to get back with you. Can you stop torturing yourself like this?"
Frederick's words made Benjamin recall the scene he had witnessed outside the restaurant. He had clearly seen how Grace had looked at Xander. It was so familiar yet so unfamiliar.
