Julian's Stand in Wife

The sky had turned dark by the time Noel was done with work.

He stood up, feeling his shoulders all stiff from sitting down and focusing on work over a long time.

The coffee on the table had turned cold. That was when he realized he didn’t even drink a sip of it.

His lips were dry and chapped, desperate for something to drink. He raised his hand, and called politely for a waiter, “Hello, I need more coffee please.”

The waiter was very busy, and didn’t have the time to come by.

Just then, Ginny came down from the second floor and spotted Noel immediately.

He looked outstanding and was dressed in a suit, completely unlike an insurance agent. In fact, he looked more like a business elite.

He was the blind date of that beautiful young lady from just now.

Ginny remembered that good-looking couple very clearly. Out of the blind dates today, they looked the most outstanding.
