Revenge On Her Ex After Rebirth novel Chapter 817

Chapter 817 An Awkward Dinner

Susan put on delicate makeup and told herself that she must dress well and look terrific. With an effort, she managed to look good. But when she arrived at the restaurant, Justine still noticed her red and puffy eyes. "Did you cry?"

Susan wanted to roll her eyes. She wondered how Justine could have seen her red eyes under delicate makeup.

"I don't think crying is appropriate for an adult." Justine crinkled her nose contemptuously.

Susan was unhappy about this and was about to sit beside Justine. Before she sat down, Justine asked her to sit opposite her. "Take that seat."

"I know that you hate me. Why do you ask me to have dinner with you? Are you enjoying seeing the one you hate?" Susan said.

"Not just me and you."

"Who else…" As soon as Susan had asked, she saw Manuel go up to them from the direction of the restroom.

"Shit. Why do they ask me to have dinner with them? Do they want me to pay the bill? Holly shit. Manuel has got my dad's property. How shameless he is to ask me to pay!" Susan thought.

She knew that her word didn't count for anything, thus she said nothing and pretended to be polite to Manuel. When Manuel got closer, Susan stood up to show her respect for him. Justine frowned, amazed at Susan's reaction. She wondered what Manuel had done and made Susan act in this way, but she stayed calm and collected. At the same time, Manuel felt surprised to see Susan here. But he also kept composed and went to the table.

"President." Susan greeted him respectfully.

Manuel nodded slightly, which made him look haughty before Susan and sat next to her at the same time. Then Susan also sat down, after which she was on pins and needles. She was reluctant to have dinner with Justine, and she didn't expect that Manuel would be here, which made her more dissatisfied. The presence of Manuel reminded Susan of what she had experienced in his office. Susan bit her lip and tried not to think about his having sex with Clara.

"Have you taken your order yet?" Susan asked, extremely embarrassed.

"Not yet." Justine sand. "I am waiting for you. It's ten minutes from the company to here. How could you spend forty minutes to get here?"

"I was stuck in traffic," Susan explained weakly in a low voice. She immediately changed the subject, "Then just order what you want. I will pay the bill."

Justine and Manuel ordered their food separately. Looking at the expensive set of meals they ordered, Susan knew that this dinner would cost a lot. Although she had a devotion to material things, she wanted to order the least expensive set of meals at the moment. But she believed that a cheap set meal would make her look superior to Justine and Manuel. As a result, she ordered an expensive set meal although she was reluctant to spend so much. After ordering, there was another awkward moment. To be specific, it was an awkward moment for her because she didn't know what to say. Therefore, she could only listen to Justine and Manuel talking.

"When will Oscar be back?" Justine asked.

"Maybe in a week."

"How are Hannah and the child?"

"They are fine. Don't worry. Hannah is a rational person and she is not likely to act too extremely."

"I know, I just…" Justine sighed. "And how about you?"
