Shattered Vows: Call Me Auntie Now novel Chapter 141

The Lumina Tower, inside the exclusive Azure Terrace restaurant.

Dante Hayes had ordered a premium bottle of wine early on. The waiter, having already let it breathe, approached respectfully. "Sir, when would you like your meal served?"

Dante glanced at his watch, exuding an air of aristocratic elegance and polite restraint. "Wait a little longer."

The waiter stepped away. He pulled out his phone and dialed Quinn Yates's number.

The line rang endlessly, echoing in his ear.

She didn't answer.

Dante's earlier arrogant confidence began to waver.

Was she planning to stand him up?

[Where are you? Do you need me to come pick you up?]

The message was met with deafening silence.

Just as a wave of irritable anxiety surged in Dante's chest, Quinn's figure finally appeared at the restaurant entrance.

His dark, brooding eyes instantly lit up.

He knew it. She couldn't bear to stand him up.

But just as he stood from his chair to greet her, he suddenly noticed she hadn't come alone.

Following closely behind was Tara Moore holding Leo's hand, along with Lydia carrying the diaper bag.

Dante's mood instantly soured. He had prepared an intimate candlelit dinner for just the two of them.

It was meant to be their exclusive romance.

Not even her best friend or their own biological son was welcome to interrupt.

Quinn looked up in his direction, their gazes locking mid-air.

Dante's stare was intense and searing, while Quinn's remained cool and undisturbed.

One burned with desire; the other was perfectly placid.

The contrast was striking.

Beside her, Tara shot Dante a mocking glare.

In a single glance, she took in the candles and the wine in front of him—a vintage that cost tens of thousands of dollars. He was certainly playing the generous host this time.

Tara's eyes practically screamed, *Dante, you finally know how to put effort into romance? Where the hell was this before?*
