Chapter 39 Sushi
Yoi’s pupil dilated in shock hearing his words…
For a moment there she forgot to even breathe.
“Alistair…”
“Why? Nervous now?” Mu grinned ruthlessly, his eyes burned with a mysterious thirst.
“You were kidding, right?” Yoi yanked his arms softly and she was fidgeting.
He was spot on, she was feeling very, very nervous now…
Previously, Annabelle’s appearance had already caused her inexplicable anxiousness. And now, Mu’s
word struck a raw nerve and she was on tenterhooks.
Looking at how uncomfortable that made Yoi, Mu just laughed it off, “Of course, I am just kidding!”
But the woman did not get any sense of security from his words. She was positive that something was
going on…
Before she opened her mouth, Mu shifted the gear and stepped on the gas.
“All of a sudden I feel like eating something else,” He said as he drove off aimlessly…
Yoi sat beside him in downcast. She looked at the man with hazy eyes and the fear of losing him
sprouted within her. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
Mu however, paid no heed and continued to drive.
When Annabelle them reached the sushi shop, she suddenly recalled something peculiar and raised a
question, “By the way bro, how did you know that I am back?”
The two checked in their reservation and was led to their seat.
Ralphy smiled awkwardly, “Why the sudden curiosity? You didn’t plan to let your brother know?”
“That’s not that. I just wondered how would you know…” Her eyebrows suddenly raised, “Dorie told
you!?”
The three of them grew up together since childhood and still maintained closely acquainted. As only
Dorie alone knew about her return, it wasn’t hard to come up with that guess.
Ralphy did not say anything in return and his silence reaffirmed Annabelle’s assumption.
He could have easily lied or mislead her, but he didn’t do that.
If there was one person in this world that he held ever so dearly, and never wishes to tell a lie to, it
would be Annabelle.
“I knew it!”
“Don’t blame her too much, she accidentally spilled it when we were talking on the phone!” Ralphy said
tensely.
Annabelle grinned cheekily, “I won’t, bro. Don’t be so nervous!”
“I’m not!”
“Of course you are!” Annabelle bossed and slapped him on the back, “Hey bro, Dorie is a good girl. If I
have a sister in law like that I would be delighted!”
An adorable face flashed before Ralphy and he stared into space.
“The two of you are like precious little sisters to me!”
“If you say so~” Annabelle knew there was no point to stir him further. Well the saying goes Love
strikes like a lightning. What can she do when the sky is clear now?
Que sera sera!
However, deep in her heart she would kill for the two to be together.
“Okay don’t be a nebby!” Ralphy said.
“Haha alright~”
“Mr. Xia!”
As the two were chirping about, a sudden voice rang in front of them like an alarm clock.
And it sent a shiver down Annabelle’s spine.
This voice, who else can it be but that Alistair!
They are sitting face to face. And the moment Ralphy saw Mu, he too, was stupefied.
