The True Heiress's Return

Chapter 342

The meeting place was chosen by Xanthe and it was a famous public market park in the old part of town, a place filled with childhood memories for many in Crescentville.

"Shakira, Mr. Lopez, over here," Xanthe shouted excitedly as she spotted them from afar, jumping and waving. Beside her was Sean, dressed in a teal tracksuit, wearing sunglasses and with one hand casually in his pocket, looking quite smug. Shakira approached with Walter and beamed. "How long have you been waiting?" "We just got here, they replied.

Seeing Walter all geared up, Sean, who was still bitter about the incident of sneaky hand-holding under the table, remarked sarcastically, "No need to wrap up so tightly in a small place like this. No one here would recognize the famous Mr. Lopez." Shakira cast a cautious glance at Sean. "I dressed him up. Do you have a problem with that, Mr. Reynolds?" Sean, who had been acting all confident before, suddenly became timid. "He looks great. It's all about having this kind of forward-thinking precaution."

Walter slightly squinted his eyes and gave Sean a profound look Noticing the tension among the three of them, Xanthe quickly stepped in to ease the mood. "The sun is really hot today. Let's get some drinks to cool off."

Xanthe had already planned everything and found a famous shaved ice place nearby in her phone notes. When the four of them arrived at the shop, Xanthe went to place the order. "I'll have the red bean shaved ice. What flavors do you all want?"

Sean glanced at the menu. "I'll take the cherry shaved ice." Shakira also chose. "I'll have the mung bean shaved ice. Walter who had been quiet suddenly said, "You can't eat mung bean. Choose something else." As Shakira was about to say something, Sean spoke up on her behalf, "She can't even decide what to eat, huh? Mr. Lopez really calls the shots."

Shakira frowned and softly said, "Sean." "I'm not wrong. I can't stand people who act superior," Sean said passionately, full of justice.

Walter ignored the noisy Sean and typed a few words on his phone, showing them to Shakira. She glanced at them and quickly looked away, feeling a bit embarrassed. "Okay, I'll go with red bean flavor."

Sean's face turned red with a mix of emotions. "Why are you listening to him? Eat what you want. Is dating about being his puppet?"

Xanthe was initially puzzled but after observing Shakira's reaction, she somewhat guessed the reason and didn't want to watch anymore. "You silly, just talk less." Sean was about to cause a scene, but Xanthe grabbed his ear and twisted it.

so she shouldn't consume too much cold stuff. Mung beans are cooling and with the ice she's eating, she'll feel uncomfortable later." After saying that, she tossed Sean aside with a disdainful look. "If I had known you left your brain
