Selina's heart skipped a beat.
From the servant's description, it seemed that the man could be Dylan.
Selina's thoughts were rolling in her mind.
She had already made it very clear to Dylan last time. Hadn't he come to his senses?
Selina thought for a long time before she dialed Dylan's number.
She felt that she had to have a good talk with Dylan.
The call was soon connected.
Dylan's voice contained excitement that he had suppressed with all his might. "Selina."
He couldn't remember how long it had been since Selina last called him.
"Dylan, let's have lunch together at noon," Selina said.
Heavy breathing came from the other end of the phone.
After a while, he replied, "Alright."
His reply was clear and quick.
They chose to meet at an old restaurant in the center of the city.
This restaurant was very famous. Although it was old, its decoration was unique.
Selina didn't choose to meet in a private room.
Of course, she knew that it was best for two people to have a talk in a private room. However, she found it strange for the two of them to share a meal in a private room together considering their past relationship.
Therefore, Selina chose to meet in the lobby on the first floor, which was full of people.
When she arrived, Dylan was already sitting there.
As she hadn't seen Dylan for a long time, Selina found him more handsome than before.
When she took a closer look, she found that that was not the case.
It was just that Dylan had dressed himself up today, which made him look even more handsome.
Selina sat down.
She handed the menu to Dylan and said, "Order."
Dylan ordered.
Selina realized that the food he had ordered were all her favorites.
A ripple of emotion stirred in her heart, but it was a sigh rather than her heart being moved.
It turned out that her heart could not be touched by a person whom she no longer liked no matter what he did. She could only sigh endlessly.
As she waited for the food to be served, Selina asked Dylan what he had been doing recently.
"Nothing much," Dylan replied. He quickly changed the subject. His gaze landed on Selina's face. "Have you been doing well lately?"
Selina's breath stopped for a moment.
Had she been doing well lately?
How was she meant to answer this question? She supposed she might be fine, but she also supposed she might not be fine.
She replied casually, "The usual. What about you?"
Dylan let out a wry laugh.
"I'm fine," he answered.
What he said was completely different from the loneliness shown on his face.
"What about your mom?" Selina asked again.
Dylan's face stiffened for a second.
He tried his best to restrain himself. "She's fine."
Selina nodded.
She pretended to nonchalantly mention, "Dylan, have you come to the Whitlock family villa to look for me during this period of time?"
Selina deliberately emphasized her words.
Doubt appeared in Dylan's eyes.
"Did you?" Selina asked.
"No, I didn't," Dylan answered directly.
Ever since he thought it through the last time, Dylan had never gone to look for Selina again.
He had always been a restrained person, and it was the same when it came to emotions.
Since Selina had no feelings for him, he could only control himself and not disturb her.
Selina bit her lip.
From Dylan's gaze, she could see that he wasn't lying.
However, since it wasn't Dylan, who else could it be?
