Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

Chapter 26

The entrance to the Lovers’ Cafe erupted with a commotion, and many young ladies exclaimed in delight.

“Oh my, is that a celebrity? He’s so handsome!”

“Quick, let’s take some pictures!”

“Oh, those two men in suits look so mysterious and cool.”

“I prefer the sunny boy in the coat.”

“I like them all!”

The entire hall was already abuzz with whispers, and numerous admiring glances were cast their

way.

Three men entered, resembling stars in their own right.

Two were impeccably dressed in professional suits, towering above the crowd. Their faces displayed an icy aloofness as if they were untouchable. and distant.

Their appearances were both frigid and unmatched, emanating an air of unapproachability.

However, the last one of them sported a beige reversible cashmere coat, exuding a handsome and cheerful aura. The corners of his mouth were always curled into a smile.

Hackett, who was always a woman killer, said, “Mr. Wilson, why are you suddenly in the mood to come here today?”

Trevon, who didn’t want to respond to Hackett, wore a cold expression, showing disdain for Hackett’s flirtatious and insincere smile.

The three individuals went to the second floor, opting for a private room. Although Hackett favored a livelier atmosphere, the other two preferred a quiet setting. In the end, the majority ruled, resulting in a 2-to-1 decision, and Hackett had to make compromises.

Trevon and Frank didn’t like the bustling activity in the downstairs hall.

Meanwhile, Hackett, searching for a seat, spotted Natalie and Sherri by the window. Perhaps Sherri’s vibrant red coat caught his attention at a glance.

Before Trevon could make his way upstairs, Hackett pulled him toward Natalie, and he was preparing to share a table with Natalie and Sherri.

Hackett noticed that the sofa they were sitting on could accommodate all three of them, with Natalie and Sherri seated opposite each other. This arrangement allowed Hackett to sit beside Natalie.

He was very confident in his plan.

“Come on. I see my crush. Let’s go sit over there and join them at their table. It’ll be funnier with more people.”

Trevon and Frank simultaneously followed Hackett’s gaze and looked in the direction Hackett was pulling them.

As expected, Natalie was there, sipping her coffee.

Frank turned to Trevon, raised an eyebrow, and looked meaningfully at the table in the corner.

Natalie appeared composed. After having just finished an argument with Trevon in the morning, she had already straightened out her thinking. However, Sherri was taken
