Chapter 293 - Happy (1/2)
”Anya, why are you daydreaming? Sit beside me,” Aiden said.
Anya was stunned for a moment and then realized. It turned out that Aiden got up to make room for her, not for Keara.
She walked to her seat and leaned closer to Aiden. Anya then sat by the window, while Aiden sat beside her.
Keara's smile instantly froze on her face. She thought she could sit next to Aiden. She also got up to give her place to Anya. However, Anya got to sit beside Aiden instead.
Her place should be beside Aiden. If only she wasn't engaged to Ivan, how could Anya be next to Aiden?
Anya looked at Aiden silently. She couldn't understand what Aiden was thinking!
He asked Keara to have dinner with him, then why did Aiden call her too?
Now, the three of them must feel uncomfortable as their situation turned awkward.
Aiden could feel the doubt in Anya's heart. After Anya sat down, his hand immediately held Anya's little hand under the table.
Anya tried to release Aiden's grip, but Aiden didn't let her. He held Anya's hand tighter.
Aiden played with her again!
Why was he doing all this in front of Keara? Did Aiden intentionally give Keara hope and then hurt her?
”Keara, Anya is sitting next to me. No need to give your chair to her. Sit down!” Aiden's words broke the awkwardness between them.
Keara smiled faintly. ”At first, I wanted to sit down with Anya so we could talk. But you are too possessive,”
”Anya is too young to talk to you,” Aiden said. The man then raised his hand to call the servant.
The waiter came with a menu and asked politely. ”What would you like to order?”
”Please recommend something. She doesn't like chives and cilantro,” Aiden told the waiter.
”Aiden! I didn't expect you to remember it,” Keara said on purpose.
Anya's face turned pale in an instant. Couldn't Keara hide her feelings for Aiden a little? At least she could refrain herself from saying it in front of the man's wife's face…
She thought Aiden wanted Anya to sit beside him to show their relationship as husband and wife. But when ordering food, he deliberately told the waiter all the food that Keara didn't like. What did Aiden really want to do?
Over the years, Aiden still remembered things that Keara hated. If not love, then what was it called?
Anya could only watch all this in silence. Her whole body stiffened and her face became a little gloomy.
”Would you like to try a set menu for couples?” The waiter asked with a smile. ”The guests who came and ordered a menu set for couples at this restaurant really enjoyed their dinner. It'll surely add the romantic side,”
”Then, I ordered a couple set menu, without the green onion and coriander,” Aiden glanced at Anya gently, ”What do you want to drink?”
”I?” Anya pointed to her face in confusion.
”Who else?” Aiden reached out and poked her forehead gently. ”What do you think?”
Anya herself just realized that she didn't like chives and coriander. She would usually put it aside or eat it forcefully, but never once did she tell Aiden that she didn't like it.
Anya herself might not have realized that Aiden didn't tell her. How did Aiden know?
At first, she thought the couple's set was for Aiden and Keara. But it turned out to be for her!
”It's up to you. You choose,” Anya said with a slightly sparkling face. She immediately turned her gaze towards Keara. She could see Keara's face was still smiling. The smile looked bland, there was neither happiness nor anger.
But the truth was, Keara felt as if her heart was stabbed repeatedly with a sharp knife so that she could not breathe.
In front of her, Aiden and Anya ordered a pair set menu.
She thought Aiden asked her out on a date so the relationship between them could change, back to how it used to be. But she didn't expect Anya to come too.
