Chapter 632
Love After Divorce by BELLA
Chapter 632:
When Stella saw Alice, she forgot to ask whether Tristan was alone or with Alice. However, since Alice was already here, she couldnât just send her away.
âSeventeen?â The first person Alice saw when she entered was Seventeen, who was sitting next to Adrian.
Seventeen heard someone calling his name. He raised his head and looked in the direction of the voice.
âIs it really Seventeen?â Alice looked at Seventeen in disbelief. She walked over to him, but Tristan stopped her. Seventeen looked up, then lowered his head again, as if someone knew him but he had nothing to do with them. Tristan hadnât expected to see Seventeen, mentioned by Alice, here.
âUncle Seventeen, do you know this aunt?â Adrian asked, looking at Alice with a frown. His first feeling was that he didnât like her.
Seventeen shook his head.
âAuntie, Uncle Seventeen doesnât know you,â Adrian said. He grabbed Seventeenâs arm and looked at Alice unhappily, as if he were protecting his food.
âImpossible! Seventeen, how come you donât know me? Donât you remember me? Iâm Alice,â she insisted, unwilling to give up.
She wanted to get rid of Tristan, but he was too strong for her to shake off.
RK narrowed his eyes at Alice, not expecting Seventeen to meet someone who seemed to be very familiar with him.
âWell, sit down first. Otherwise, the dishes will be cold,â Stella said. She didnât expect such a dramatic situation to unfold. Tristan helped Alice sit down, but her eyes never left Seventeenâs face.
Originally, Adrian felt happy to see Tristan, but when he saw the woman brought by Tristan, he became unhappy. It seemed that Alice wanted to compete with him for Seventeenâs attention.
âUncle Seventeen, I want to eat shrimp.â Adrian pulled on Seventeenâs arm and looked at him with a smile.
As if cutting off everyoneâs eyes and voices, Seventeen picked up a shrimp and began to peel it for Adrian. Looking at their interaction, RK couldnât quite believe it.
galnÏνels.câm hosts fresh updates He knew that Adrian liked Seventeen very much, but he didnât realize that Seventeen also doted on Adrian so much. However, when he felt that Adrian seemed to like Seventeen more, he suddenly felt very disappointed. His son didnât seem to like him anymore.
âDad, Little Adrian wants to eat crabs.â Sensing RKâs disappointment, Adrian pointed at the crabs. RKâs expression immediately changed when he heard Adrianâs request. He picked up a crab and began preparing it for him. Stella watched them and didnât know what to say; she could only smile.
As for Ruben and Emily, they seemed unaware of the tension in the room. The two of them ate happily, with Ruben taking care of Emily most of the time.
Looking at them, Stella felt like she was the only one left out. âBrother Tristan, letâs eat first. We can talk after dinner.â Stella smiled at Tristan and began to eat.
Alice had been watching Seventeen as if she couldnât feel what was happening next to her. Looking at Alice, Tristan suddenly felt that Seventeen was too cold-blooded. Even if he didnât remember Alice, he should at least show some reaction.
Seventeen felt Aliceâs gaze but didnât react at all. He just continued to eat. Of course, he would immediately give Adrian whatever he wanted to eat, faster than RK would.
RK couldnât remember how many times he regretted allowing Adrian and Seventeen to get so close. The more he thought about it, the more he felt he shouldnât have let them go that far.
Ruben and Emily didnât know the current atmosphere, but they felt it was better not to interrupt. After all, there were outsiders present.
Stella thought the food was delicious, but she had lost her appetite. She shouldnât have let them come over; what was supposed to be a happy meal had become so embarrassing.
âMr. Seventeen, can I talk to you after dinner?â Alice, no longer as excited as she had been when she first saw Seventeen, still looked at him and asked.
Seventeen acted as if he didnât hear her.
âAuntie, Iâm sorry. Uncle Seventeen said itâs not necessary,â Adrian said, showing his white teeth in a smile at Alice. It was as if he knew what Seventeen was thinking, so he spoke for him.
âKid, Iâm talking to Seventeen,â Alice said, knowing that the whole room was focused on Adrian. She didnât dare to say anything harsh.
âMr. Seventeen wants to talk to Little Adrian, so he asked him to tell you. Isnât that right, Mr. Seventeen?â Adrian turned his head and looked at Seventeen, who was next to him. RKâs mouth twitched. How could he not know that his nephew had a knack for sensing other peopleâs feelings?
Seventeen nodded, which left everyone present speechless. They didnât expect Seventeen to dote on Adrian to such an extent.
âAuntie, you see? Mr. Seventeen has nodded.â Adrian was very happy to see Seventeen agree.
âSeventeen, what happened to you? How come you donât remember me?â Alice continued to address Seventeen, not caring about Adrian at all. Adrian was angry.
âAuntie, Iâm talking to you! How can you ignore me?â Adrian looked at Alice without a smile, clearly upset. Indeed, Adrian was very angry. He could feel that Alice had come to compete with him for Seventeenâs attention.
