True Love Deserves a Second Chance by Nox Shadow

Chapter 147 I Will Go Crazy

Sebastian's heart sank. He felt like he'd seen this woman before, especially her eyes and gentle smile.

The memory was too distant to pinpoint. Trying to stay composed, he quickly adjusted his expression. "If you mind, I can move to another table." "It's okay, sit down," Elise said, hiding her surprise.

Joey felt awkward and kicked Sebastian under the table. But before she could pull her foot back, Sebastian trapped it between his legs. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't break free.

Seeing her face turn red with anger, Sebastian smirked. He poured her a glass of iced drink and handed it over with a smile. "Is the air conditioning off? Your face is all red. Have some ice water to cool down." Joey cursed him silently but forced a faint smile. "Thanks, but I can't drink cold beverages. Hot coffee suits me better."

She poured coffee for Elise and herself, thinking that was the end of it. But then she heard Sebastian's low voice in her ear.

"Why is it early this month? I remember it's the 8th, isn't it?" He leaned in, making sure she heard. His words were clearly heard by the others at the table.

Joey's face turned even redder. Anyone could understand what that date meant, showing how close they were.

Forcing a smile, Joey said, "I need to use the restroom, excuse me."

As she left, Sebastian stood up too. "Take your time eating, I need to take a call."

After they left, Elise looked at Leonard. "This guy is more cunning than you. If you want Joey, it'll be tough."
