Being Pursued By Ex-husband

Chapter 665 Do Not Cry

Rowen looked at the person across from him. Since sitting down to eat, Celine had hardly lifted her head, only picking food from the dish in front of her.

Rowen raised an eyebrow, reached out, and placed his hand next to her plate, tapping on the table. “Do you really dislike me?”

Celine was eating when suddenly a hand appeared in front of her. She was taken aback for a moment, then she heard Rowen's words.

Surprised, she lifted her head to look at Rowen across from her, blinking slightly. “No, not at all.”

“No?”

Rowen hummed lightly, looking at her with a smile that wasn't quite a smile. It was clear what he meant.

Celine felt her cheeks flush under the gaze, feeling quite embarrassed. She hesitated, biting her lip before finally speaking, “Rowie, don't you prefer... quietness?”

What she really wanted to say was “I thought you don't like having others talk to you,” but when the words came to her lips, she changed her phrasing.

Rowen picked up a piece of beef. “Are you saying that you're afraid to talk to me or ask me questions because I prefer silence?”

Celine didn't say a word, but her expression said it all.

Rowen looked at the person across from him, and for some reason, he felt somewhat stifled. “Wow, you really are smart.”

Celine realized she had made a faux pas, sensing the inexplicable anger from the other party. She bit her fork, not daring to speak again.

Rowen casually took more from the side dishes and finished his meal in just a few bites.

“I'm done.”

He put down his fork, then stood up and went straight upstairs.

The spacious restaurant was left with only Celine. As Celine watched Rowen's retreating figure, she couldn't help but bite her chopsticks.
