Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 389

Chapter 389 Stand Up for a Friend

It was only when Whitney disappeared from sight that Nicole took her eyes off the former. In fact, she noticed the same strange thing about Whitney as Emily did. At the same time, Whitney’s strange behavior reminded Nicole of the exact same way she behaved when she first joined F&M Apparel three years ago.

However, Nicole didn’t ask Whitney about that, thinking she should respect her wish to keep her secret. “I think she’ll be fine. She is probably just not feeling well now,” Nicole said as she didn’t expose Whitney. In the meantime, Emily didn’t press on with any more questions regarding Whitney because she wasn’t close with her after all.

On the other hand, Whitney could no longer fight back her tears when she left the café in a hurry. Her eyes and nose began to turn red as she wiped her tears off with her hands and continued to make her way outside.

Soon, her vision became blurred by the tears shortly before she bumped herself onto someone while making her way out of the café. Reactively, she quickly apologized, with her head kept down. “I’m so sorry. I wasn’t looking.”

“Beauty Whitney?” Whitney heard a magnetic voice from above her head. Finding it familiar, she looked up and saw Mason. She then wiped off the tears on her face in a panicky manner and looked down slightly. “President Schumacher…”

Meanwhile, Mason reacted as if his heart melted when he noticed the tears on Whitney’s face. He then fixed his gaze upon her and caressed her cheek, sympathetically saying, “You shouldn’t be crying, beauty. Your tears are going to ruin how you look.”

Despite hearing Mason’s cheeky reply, Whitney gave a rather rigid response, taking a few steps back while blinking. “I’m fine. Thanks for your concern, President Schumacher.”

Hearing Whitney’s indifferent response, Mason decided not to ask her about that. Instead, he looked down and showed his concern in a euphemistic way. “Why are you crying? Is there something that’s bothering you?”
