Dark Revenge Of An Unwanted Wife: The Twins Are Not Yours!

Chapter 276: Just A Business Meeting V

Athena smiled coyly, dusting imaginary specks of dust off Ewan’s shoulders as if they were close friends simply playing around.

"I hope it won’t, unless our little truce will be over, Mr. Ewan," She whispered, looking up at him, unfazed by their closeness or the gaze of the public, which she could almost feel pressing against them.

"Uhmm..." Ewan stuttered, unsure whether he was aware of the game Athena was subtly playing. Was she flirting with him? Or was it all sarcasm?

Before he could voice his thoughts, she pointed to the spot where the ice cream was being sold. "On second thought, I think I’ll take you up on your offer. I will need a takeout."

Ewan nodded eagerly, like an infatuated teenager, and hurried off to the stand, a spring in his step as he felt compelled to please her.

Athena watched him go with a smile blooming on her lips, her confidence soaring as she noticed some female patrons casting her envious glances.

However, that happiness flickered when she caught herself staring at Ewan’s perfectly shaped rear, accentuated by the snug fit of his pants.

What are you doing, Athena? She scolded herself for what felt like the hundredth time, shaking her head and instantly turning away as if she had been caught in a moment of weakness.

She strode toward the café’s exit, desperate to escape the temptation that clung to her.

Meanwhile, Ewan was busy at the ice cream stand, oblivious to the admiration he had inadvertently stirred.

As the female server batted her fake lashes, he requested an extra scoop in the chocolate bucket—having opted for the bigger size—and added a tub of vanilla and strawberry, the favorites of his children.
