After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back by Riverflow

The person in the hallway glanced at her briefly but quickly looked away, as though she were a stranger.

Jolie's hand, lifted halfway to wave, stalled in mid-air.

Gavin noticed her reaction and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing," Jolie replied, shaking her head and brushing it off.

The man outside was lan. Pretending not to know her was probably his way of avoiding unnecessary trouble-after all, they had already "broken up."

The door to their private room shut completely, and Gavin hadn't seen lan or his group.

He turned back to her and asked, "Do you come here often?"

"Yeah," Jolie nodded. "I come here a lot with friends."

So, this was one of her favorite hidden gems. The fact that she was willing to share it with him felt significant somehow.

Gavin caught himself lingering on that thought and was momentarily taken aback by his own reaction. He kept his expression neutral, not letting on what had crossed his mind.

The food arrived quickly, and Jolie, excited as if presenting a treasure, slid the dishes toward him.

"Try it!" she said eagerly.

Gavin took a few bites and nodded. "It's good."
