Chapter 160 I Have to Use the Restroom

Emmeline's eyes widened after she heard what he said.

What is your intention behind saying that, Benjamin? What message are you trying to convey to Janie?

"Then, you order the food yourself. How am I supposed to know what you like to eat?" Emmeline threw the menu at Benjamin, visibly annoyed.

Benjamin had no other option but to pick up the menu, and then he lowered his head to carefully study the available dishes.

Janie was a little stunned by the sight of the two individuals before her. She couldn't help but feel curious about the dynamics between Emmeline and Benjamin.

They appeared to be friends, but there was a certain intimacy between them that suggested they might be more than that. Yet, there was also a sense of distance between them that contradicted that notion.

It seemed like…their relationship was that of a superior and subordinate, with Emmeline in charge and Benjamin taking orders!

Oh my God!

Janie became a little panicked upon making this discovery. She quickly stood up and announced, "I need to use the restroom. Please feel free to order without me."

Benjamin became upset when he noticed Janie had gone to the restroom.

"I must say, Ms. Louise, that you seem to have an excess of free time. Perhaps you should consider taking on more stunt double jobs if you have so much time on your hands. Why are you playing a joke on me?"

Emmeline pouted and said, "I made a promise to Janie. In any case, it's high time you found yourself a girlfriend."

"That is not related to you in any way!"

Emmeline glanced at him and retorted, "How is it not related to me? If you had a girlfriend, you wouldn't have to keep staring at me."

"Even if you want to push me away, you don't need to use Janie as your shield, right?"

"I didn't use her as a shield. I simply accepted her bribe, so I can't refuse her request."
