The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 2254

His seated posture was domineering, and he pushed Susan’s and Tyler’s cups aside before ordering another cup of coffee for himself. He looked up at me. "Would you believe me, President Lane, if I said it was a coincidence?"

I wore a slight smile on my lips. "Of course, I would. I don't think there is a reason for you, who’s always busy with things, to follow me."

Cole smiled when he heard that. It even reached his eyes.

"Is the person who left just now Tyler Schuman?" he asked, but he seemed to already have the answer some time ago.

I had become accustomed to Cole's ‘supernatural powers’ and did not deny it. "You know everything, don’t you, Mr. Anders?"

"Is he your brother?" Cole asked again.

I leaned back, amusement crossing my features. "You seem to be very interested in my network, Mr. Anders."

Cole raised a brow before nodding. "Yes, I am indeed very interested in you, President Lane."

He said that on purpose.

It seemed that Theo was right. Perhaps he really was somehow connected to me, and he might not have said anything just because it was not time.

I kept my composure and replied, "I wonder what makes you so interested in me?"

"Sir, your coffee."

Cole's coffee came. He picked it up and took a sip. "You’re just like this coffee, President Lane. Memorable."

That sounded dubious, but I did not find it greasy.

I smiled. Not wanting to play this riddle game with him anymore, I asked directly, "What's with your sudden appearance, Mr. Anders?"

Seeing that I had now cut to the chase, Cole ceased being glib. "I come to this coffee shop often, so it was indeed a coincidence to be meeting you here today, President Lane. I was already here before you arrived.”
