Chapter 107 She Will Join Our Family

“Thank you for the concern, Mr. Faymon, but I’m capable of handling my matters.” Rayna got up from the chair and placed a bill underneath the coffee cup. “This latte is on me.”

With that, she left swiftly.

Julian watched her leave, not getting up from his chair even though he wanted to run after her.

The truth was, he was not a heartless person. He just got bored when nothing happened between him and Rayna after being together for so long. However, he came to his senses as soon as he cheated and regretted his actions.

The man who went looking for Julian at the hospital and urged him to sign the divorce papers once said, “You’re an idiot for not appreciating a smart and capable woman like her.”

Julian finally understood the man’s words.

I’m an idiot.

After stepping out of the cafe, Rayna called for a cab and returned to Norwal City.

Her encounter with Julian and his words of concern left her feeling so frustrated that she went to the mall instead of returning to the office.

When she arrived at COCO to get a cup of milkshake, she heard someone calling out her name, which made her turn around, only to realize it was the old man she had met at the Armani store.

The man was dressed in a casual outfit, looking energetic.

Rayna was surprised, but she quickly put on a smile and asked, “Is that you, Mister? What a coincidence! Are you here for a cup of milkshake, too?”

“Yes. The one you recommended last time was delicious,” said Alfred with a grin. In fact, he had been visiting the store every few days to see if he could bump into Rayna there.

All that waiting had finally paid off.

“Yes, it is, but it has too much sugar. I think you should stop buying it. I have an idea. Please wait for me here.” With that, Rayna walked off.
