The True Heiress Returns (Tilda Jenson) novel Chapter 139

Chapter 139 Meeting Her Apprentice

People laughed and shouted happily around the café.

Even Tilda felt a spark of excitement.

She rested her chin in her hand, eyes shining with anticipation.

She was about to meet her apprentice.

She had to see if they would recognize each other right away.

Tilda showed up at Cornerstone Café but didn’t text DJ. She wanted to test something.

She wanted to see if their connection as master and apprentice was real.

She wanted to know if they could find each other immediately in this bustling café.

They’d missed each other in their past lives, but maybe this time things would finally click.

Maybe she’d gain a real friend she could talk to.

Just then, the café doorbell chimed.

Someone stepped in.

Tilda’s eyes shifted toward the entrance.

She hoped it was DJ.

But no-

It wasn’t her apprentice. It was someone she did not want to see.

Dominic.

Her good mood cracked the second she saw him.

She took several slow breaths and told herself to stay calm.

She had sworn she wouldn’t let the Jensons get under her skin this time.

Taking slow sips of her coffee, she waited patiently for her apprentice to show up.

Dominic scanned the café as he entered.

The moment his eyes landed on Tilda, his expression turned cold.

Why the hell is she here?!

Damn it!

Still, with Queen on the way, he forced himself to stay calm instead of tossing Tilda out.

Starting drama now wasn’t worth it.

The baristas at Cornerstone Café knew Dominic well–he was tight with the owner and dropped by all the time.

“Mr. Jenson, your usual?” one of them asked.

Yeah, he answered flatly.

“Right away,” the barista replied.

He soon brought over an orange peel civet coffee with extra care.

Dominic took it and chose a seat far from Tilda.

The last thing he wanted was to look at her.

Still, he had to keep watch on the café.

He couldn’t risk missing Queen’s arrival.

He’d already checked out everyone in the café.

Besides that irritating Tilda, no one gave him the feeling that they were Queen.
