Emilie grinned. But Jacob was fine with that and he bowed the head to laugh at himself.
“But she doesn’t know me.”
“So it’s a secret love?”
Emilie suddenly raised her voice, and Nova was also too shocked to say.
In French restaurants, dining etiquette was requested. Such noise soon caused plenty of complaints. Soon, a waiter came and whispered. Nova came to herself and then said to Emilie.
“Keep quiet. A loud noise is not allowed here.”
Emilie also realized that she overreacted slightly. So she nodded to the waiter with a sorry smile. However, someone not far taunted.
“Uneducated women shouldn’t turn up here, otherwise, she will make a spectacle of herself like you.”
Emilie got a dark face. Although she had a gay and tolerant disposition, she would never suffer in silence. So she stepped towards that woman who just taunted her, and stood in front of her. Emilie looked at the brand clothes on her, and there was the rich odor of perfume. She sneered.
“I was told that a woman will be as elegant and noble as her smell, but I figure out today when I see you that I was cheated.”
That woman was puzzled. But when she heard the laughter around her, she realized that she was scolded. She got a red face with anger.
“You, you are scolding me?”
Emilie shrugged her shoulders with a smile,
“Did I use swear words?”
That woman was so angry. Then she saw a man behind them and cried with a grievance,
“Denis, come here. This woman scolded me just now.”
Emilie slowly turned around. She froze when she saw Denis.
It never occurred to Nova that they would meet Denis here. She approached Emilie and looked at the shocked and embarrassed man. She asked in a low voice.
“Denis, you’re having a meal here?”
Denis hurriedly came forward and held Emilie’s hand. He said.
“Emilie, why are you here?”
Emilie stared at him with cold eyes and replied.
“If I don’t come here, I will never know that you have a date with such a beauty. Sorry for disturbing.”
Denis frowned,
“It’s not what you think. She was Rosalie, who grew up with me since I was a child. She just returned home last month.”
“So you are friends from childhood. It’s a perfect match.”
Emilie sneered, and Denis got a bad look. He took her hand, and turned to that woman.
“Rosalie, this is my wife. I have to go now. See you later.”
Then he said to Nova.
“I have to take Emilie home now. Bye.”
He hurried away with Emilie.
Nova looked at their back, and felt worried.
“They will be ok if it’s just a misunderstanding.”
The voice of Jacob came, and Nova turned around to see his deep eyes.
“What if it isn’t a misunderstanding?”
Rosalie sneered and left.
Nova looked a little somber. She was not in the mood for the meal after the unhappy meeting. Jacob gave her a glance and waved to the waiter for check.
