Abandoned by All I Took It All Back novel Chapter 204

West smiled and nodded, offering a polite response. "It's doing alright."

Marjorie clutched her handbag tighter.

"My parents and I had dinner at The Tasting Room recently. The food was excellent. It's great that business is going so well. The menu is fantastic; I'm sure you'll only become more successful."

She opened her mouth as if to say more, but her strained expression faltered.

The Tasting Room had only recently become popular, and she hadn't known West was the owner. She and Clark had gone there for dinner one night and had to wait an hour for a table.

She had to admit, the food was absolutely incredible.

Towards the end of their meal, she saw West at the front counter and assumed he was one of the chefs.

She had even snuck away from Clark to ask a waiter about him.

After asking three different staff members, they all confirmed that West was the owner of The Tasting Room.

At that moment, she was overcome with a mix of emotions she couldn't quite describe.

Of course, West had no idea what Marjorie was thinking. He simply offered a polite, "Thank you."

West's reserved and distant demeanor left Marjorie feeling at a loss.

Who would have thought that they were once a deeply devoted couple?

"Well, I'll let you get back to your walk. I… I have to be somewhere," Marjorie said, turning to leave, as if afraid West might say something else.

Leaning back on the bench, Janina watched Marjorie's retreating figure and smiled at West. "Brother West, it seems like she's not over you."

"It doesn't matter to me," West said, his face calm.

Grace, who had also sat down, chimed in with disapproval. "She just can't stand to see us doing well. She used to think West wasn't good enough for her, and now that he's successful, she can't handle it."

Janina had heard from West about his history with Marjorie. They had been childhood sweethearts and had a very strong relationship.
