Infatuated with my Ex-wife novel Chapter 46

Elio immediately stretched out his right hand to hold Irene so that she would not fall backwards. Then he steadied her body and said, "Are you all right?"

Irene patted her chest gently. Fortunately, the man's impact was too strong!

After saying sorry, the man ran away in a hurry.

Irene shook her head. "I'm fine. It's just a pity that I've only drunk one-third of my coffee."

Elio smiled and said, "We can buy another cup of coffee." He thought to himself that everthing would be all right, as long as she was all right.

"Yes..." The embarrassing atmosphere created by the discussion earlier was swept away. Irene said, "You are right!"

"All right, let us go! Miss Baker is getting restless." Elio gently loosened his grip, and strode out..

Irene agreed and followed.

As soon as he went out, Millicent just went out from the hall, still maintaining her usual smile. "I have finished watching it. I feel that my life had no regrets. Claudia is really amazing."

Irene walked over, took Millicent's hand, and said, "That's enough. You have said that  hundreds of times."

Then turning to Elio again, she said, "I'll leave first. The driver was waiting for me outside. I'd like to hang out with you next time." She then turned to Millicent and said, "Millicent, I'm worried if you go home alone. Why do not you ask Elio to send you home?"

Millicent was silent. She lowered her head and did not dare to look at Elio. What if he refused?

Elio said, "I have no objections. I just don't know if that okay for Miss Baker?"

Spending time together was the first step to attract each other. Irene felt that this first step had been realized.

"It's Millicent." Millicent's voice was very quilt.

"What?" Elio looked at Millicent. He did not hear clearly.

Of course, Millicent did not dare to repeat it.

Irene knew what Millicent had said. She smiled and said, "Her first name is Millicent. You just call her Millicent."

Elio nodded. 

Then he stared at Millicent and said."Alright. Millicent."

Millicent thought  that no one could pronounce her name as lovely as Elio. This was the first time that he called her like this. His voice was so beautiful that she could never forget it.

Seeing this, Irene thought it was the time to leave them alone. So she let go of Millicent's hand and said," Drive safe. Millicent, remember to call me when you get home." She left right after she finished her sentence.

......

When Edward returned home, Irene had not returned yet. He browsed the newspaper in the living room for a while. By the time he finished reading the last report, he was already impatient. He then went to the kitchen to take a look.

When he entered the kitchen, the cook was discussing dinner with the housekeeper, and the arrival of Edward made her nervous for a moment. "Sir."

Edward rolled up his sleeves and said, "It's OK, keep doing your job." Edward wanted to  make some desserts for Irene.

Half an hour later, the desserts was ready. Well, Irene hadn't come back yet.

Finally, Edward exausted his patience and said to the servant, "Call and ask why haven't Irene come back yet? It's 7:30 now."

If Irene was having a good time, his call would make her unhappy. He didn't want to make Irene feel he botherd her. 

So he changed his mind and the asked servant to call the driver.

...

The driver replied that Irene was shopping in the mall and had already had dinner.

The maid said, "Sir, will you eat dinner youself?" Compared with the dishes, the desserts were more important. 

"Eat?" Irene is not home. What was the point of sitting alone at the table? Send the food to the study. " he went upstairs angrily.

Irene had actually intended to go home after returning from the exhibition. However, as she passed by the mall, she suddenly remembered Edward's clothes are balck and white,so she decided to go and take a look.

Although she knew Edward's clothes have always been tailored, he naturally despised such clothes at the mall and may not wear them. She hoped he could wear different daily styles  at home.

However, she forgot the time while she was shopping. The driver certainly could not rush her, so he just waited for her in the car. As for dinner, she could not resist the temptation of a hamburger.

After a long time, Irene still did not find the clothes appropriate for him. Although Edwad's figure was hot, not all clothes were suitable for him. Besides, Irene was a picky person, so it took her a lot of time.
