The waiter had already brewed a pot of tea, then left.
Janie pouted. âEmma, do you think I feel wrong? Womenâs feelings are very accurate. Mr. Benjamin likes you.â
âUhâ¦â Emmeline gave a cup of tea to Janie and answered, âMaybe you donât feel wrong, but you have to believe that Benjamin and I donât have a relationship. Thatâs enough.â
But if Mr. Benjamin likes you. How can he accept me?â Janie was a little worried. âYouâre so beautiful and lovely. I canât replace you.â
âI misjudged you. How could such a difficulty scare you? I wouldnât have matched you and Benjamin if knew your timidity. Anyway, I have nothing to do with him. You just watch him marry another woman in the future.â
âThat wonât work!â Janie almost jumped up. âMr. Benjamin can only marry me!â
âGood to have the courage.â Emmeline pouted. âI know Iâll never be with Benjamin, and I think youâre good, so I tried to match you two. Do you think Iâm that free to help you?â
âI understand now.â Janie blushed a little. âIâll seize the opportunity to pursue Mr. Benjamin.â
Emmeline said, âThatâs the best. I donât want Benjamin to be alone forever. Iâll feel uncomfortable to see that.â
Janie patted her chest. âDonât worry. Leave this problem to me! He wonât be single later!â
âThatâs great!â Emmeline laughed âAs long as you work hard, you can success.â
Janie nodded. She must have perseverance and would not give up until she could be with Benjamin.
Thinking of Benjamin, Janie blushed.
Emmeline saw Janie blush and felt a little puzzled.
âWhatâs wrong with you? I only encouraged you. Why are you blushing?â
Janie tugged at the collar.
âNothing. The clothes are a bit thick. Iâm hot.â
âDrink more tea.â Emmeline poured her tea. âYouâll feel better.â
Janie picked up the teacup and took a sip. The atmosphere between them eased, and it turned into chatting.
Suddenly, Janie stared at the phone screen and said, âWhat does she mean? Is she getting engaged?â
Emmeline raised her head when she heard that, then gossiped, âWho wants to get engaged?â
Janie responded, âItâs Alana Lane. The entertainment reporters always like to obtain her news.â
Alana?â Emmeline froze for a moment. âShow it to me.ââ
â
Janie turned the phone screen to Emmeline.
Emmeline stared and saw it was a Twitter repost by an entertainment reporter, and the original link was indeed named Alana.
âThanks to him for giving me time to restore my health and beauty. I look forward to the engagement with him.â
Those words hit Emmelineâs heart like a hammer. It made her suffocate, stuffy, and painful.
It turns out that Abel is going to be engaged to Alana. Abel was not perfunctory with Old Mr. Ryker.
Otherwise, Alana wouldnât dare to post publicly!
Emmeline suddenly wiped her mouth hard.
Janie was taken aback, then asked, âEmma, is something wrong with this tea?â
âNope,â Emmeline replied.
âThen, why are you wiping your mouth so hard?â
âI suddenly remembered Late blue cheese. I still feel smelly now.â
