Love at the Wrong Table (Emmanuel Lowe and Mackenzie) novel Chapter 651

Chapter 651

Emmanuel stared silently at Tia for a long time, leading Tia to quickly blush

and lower her head. Why is he looking at me like that?! How embarrassing!

Emmanuel, on the other hand, remained composed. He could tell Tia was a

sweet girl. Thus, he still spoke up even if he knew she would turn him down.

“Well, you see, my cousin wants to be friends with you. He hopes to have a

meal with you and spend some time together.”

“Sorry?!” As expected, Tia was shocked, and it took her a while before she

stammered while asking, “T–Tommy’s father? Isn’t he married, though?”

“He was. He’s divorced now,” answered Emmanuel frankly. “It’s a little tough

for him, a single father, to raise Tommy.”

Tia’s expression naturally turned unpleasant. Tommy’s father and Tommy’s

uncle were like night and day.

Though she knew she wasn’t worthy of being with Emmanuel, she never

thought about being with Ryder either.

“If you don’t want to, then forget I—”

“Alright!” Tia interrupted and eagerly agreed, smiling beautifully. “I promised

you, so of course I’ll follow through!”

Emmanuel wasn’t sure how he felt when he looked at the young woman’s

infatuated smile. Things seemed to have become rather complicated.

Suddenly, a voice rang out from not far away. “Manny, Ms. Poole!”

Ryder had arrived at Tia’s rented apartment earlier, and when he saw two

people getting out of a cab, he wondered if it was Tia. Sure enough, when he

approached them, it was her!

Tia, however, slowly tucked away her smile when she saw Ryder approaching

with a beam. “Are you here to pick Tommy up, Mr. Lowe?” Tia greeted him

plainly.

“Yeah. Thank you for taking care of Tommy, Ms. Poole.” Ryder chuckled

warmly.
