Chapter 25
Chapter 25 Anne wanted to say that nobody told her to park here. However, she opened the door and went in. They went to a high-end restaurant. Anne felt that she did not belong there. The diners there were dressed fancily. Michelle was in heels and a branded dress, while Anne had ordinary shoes, jeans, and a loose T-shirt. Her clothing was worth less than a hundred bucks. The manager stared at her when she went in. If it were not for Michelle’s sake, she would have been asked to leave. After they were seated, Anne asked, “Why are we here?” “To dine, of course. This place is private. It’s suitable for popular celebrities like me,” Michelle said. Anne did not mind her tone as she had always been this way.
Michelle picked up the menu and said, “Order something ! You probably haven’t eaten, let’s eat together.” Anne just got off work. She had not eaten. She was planning to make instant noodles at home. She did not have to read the menu to know how expensive the food was! “No need.” Anne thought Michelle wanted to talk. She did not know they were here to eat. Michelle did not say much. She ordered a few dishes and a bottle of wine before returning the menu to the staff. After the staff had gone in, Michelle looked at Anne’s face with a judgemental look. She had disliked Anne since the first time she saw Anne in the Marwood Mansion. It had been a few years, and she disliked Anne even more now. “When did you come back?” Michelle asked. “Almost half a month ago.”
“I just finished shooting, and I know nothing. Are you still in touch with Anthony?” Anne’s eyes changed. It seemed that Michelle did not know that Anthony was back. However, Anne had always known that Michelle fancied Anthony back then. She once rushed up to Anne and warned her, “I like Anthony, don’t fight with me.” Back then, Anne was in high school, and she did not understand what Michelle was doing. Now she understood. Michelle seemed relaxed. “Looks like you don’t know either. Why’re you back? I don’t think you’ve graduated?” “I didn’t finish and came back.” “The college has no place for you?” Anne stayed silent. The dishes were served. Michelle saw that Anne did not speak, and she said, “Why’re you intimidated by me? Will I eat you? I don’t like people watching me when I eat.” “If there’s nothing else, I will go back.” Michelle was not pleased. “Anne, it has been years. You can’t be busier than me. I ordered for two. How am I going to finish this?” Anne looked at the other tables, and she was afraid that she might attract attention. Also, she did not want to waste food, so she picked up the fork and started eating. Michelle was pleased when she saw Anne eating. Before they finished, Michelle looked as if she was in pain. “Oh, my stomach is unwell. I’m going to the toilet.” She stood up and left. Anne thought she would come back soon, but it had been twenty minutes since and Michelle had not shown up. Did she have diarrhea?
