Passionate Devotion: Master Fudd's Beloved Wife novel Chapter 987

Cherie ran into Layla while she was out shopping at a mall two weeks later.

Hector and Layla were shopping for their wedding at the mall.

Hector was the one who came over and greeted her first, "Hey Cherie, did you come by yourself? Did Boyle not accompany you here?"

Cherie replied, "Today isn't even a weekend, so how would he even be free? Boyle isn't even on break and you're on break, Hector? Did you skip work?"

Hector had been hired to work as the finance manager for MO Group for almost a year now.

Hector chuckled as he took a glance at Layla who was nearby and said, "Aren't we getting married soon? Boyle allowed me to take a break to prepare for my wedding."

"You guys are getting married soon?"

Hector replied, "Yeah, we've been dating for half a year now and we've already met both our parents, so we're preparing for our wedding."

Layla walked over and hugged Hector's arm as she said, "Why don't we have lunch together since we've already ran into each other?"

Cherie did not refuse them since being a third wheel for Layla and Hector did not bother her at all.

Coincidentally enough, she was alone and hungry.

They picked a restaurant that served steak. Cherie had not had steak in a really long time now and she really wanted to eat it.

She ordered a medium rare steak.

Hector went to the washroom while they were waiting for their food to be served, leaving Layla and Cherie at the table.

Layla took out a wedding invitation from her bag and said, "Since we ran into each other, I'll just hand you the invitation first. Hector and I are getting married."

Layla handed the intricately designed red invitation to Cherie.

Cherie accepted the invitation and simply asked, "Do you really like Hector though?"

Layla was stunned as she did not expect Cherie to ask her that.

Cherie said, "You hesitated. You don't like him?"

Layla stared at Cherie as if she was looking at a child as she chuckled, shook her head and said, "No, I just thought that you've always been living in your own bubble and won't ever care about others. I felt a little uncomfortable when you suddenly asked me about Hector."

"Can't I ask? Hector is still Boyle's good friend and shouldn't I care about his matters?"

Layla chuckled and drank a sip of lemonade before saying, "Sure."

"You haven't answered me yet. Do you even like Hector?"

Layla stared intensely at Cherie before saying, "Oh, don't you worry. I've already lost interest in Boyle for a long time. The person that I actually love right now is none other than Hector."

Cherie pouted her lips and said, "I'm not afraid of you approaching Boyle at all. I never even thought of you as a potential competition back then. You know, I just thought that Hector is a really nice guy and if you don't exactly like him, well, that'll be really sad for him."
