The person walked over purposefully, and it seemed that he knew them.
Madeline then quickly realized that this man knew Evan.
He respectfully gave Evan a polite smile before facing Madeline and Jeremy.
“Are you Mr. and Mrs. Whitman?“ the man asked politely.
Madeline and Jeremy nodded. “And you are?“
“He is Fab’s assistant, “ Evan said, answering for the man.
“Fabian’s assistant?“ Madeline wondered, then it was as if she gradually understood something. “Is Fabian not coming?“
The man smiled and nodded. “Mr. Johnson suddenly has something important to deal with, so he can’t leave for the time being. He asked me to bring Miss Lily’s things over, and they’re all in the car. Could I trouble Mr. and Mrs. Whitman to follow me and take them?“
After listening to the man’s explanation, Madeline and Jeremy also understood. They then led Lillian out of the coffee shop together.
As they moved the things, Evan stood by and called out to the assistant Fabian had sent.
“Fab doesn’t have something important to deal with, he just doesn’t want to come, isn’t that right?“ Evan asked directly.
This assistant also knew that Fabian and Evan had a very close relationship, so he nodded and confessed without concealing anything. The man also changed his tone and stopped addressing Fabian as Mr.
Johnson in disaffection. “Young Master Johnson is reluctant to leave Miss Lily. He didn’t have the courage to say goodbye, so that’s why he asked me to come.“
“I can’t believe this. “ Evan sighed with a smile. “I didn’t expect Fabian to fall for this little girl.“
When the assistant heard this, he hurriedly explained, “Don’t get me wrong, Mr. Evan, Young Master Johnson doesn’t have any strange feelings for Miss Lily. Miss Lily is really likable, and I’m also fond of her. I’m reluctant for her to leave too.“
