Elder Kinston's Exclusive Sweet Wife-Chapter 826 - 861: An Unexpected Meeting
Once again carrying bags big and small, Dorian Howards got on the escalator, but he didn’t see Alice Conley on the next floor.
Where did she go? If she was shopping, it couldn’t possibly be that quick to finish a whole floor, which means she probably just passed through this level and went up to the next one?
With this thought, Dorian quickly got on the escalator again. It wasn’t until the restaurant area on the top floor that he saw her figure.
She was sitting in front of a dessert shop, had ordered a dessert, but kept glancing at her phone and looking around.
He quickly turned to the side to avoid her gaze, wondering if she was waiting for someone. Could it be the tall, skinny guy he had seen twice before, who looked like a big boy?
Dorian was full of doubt until he saw a man in a suit walking towards Alice Conley.
"You must be Alice Conley." The man walked up to her and said, his cold face warmed by a slight smile.
Alice looked at the newcomer, a bit surprised. She was supposed to meet Daxton here today, but unexpectedly, the person who came was—"You’re Jacob Fletcher!" she said, recognizing him immediately from the photos she’d seen.
"Yes, I am Jacob Fletcher." Jacob sat down and said, "Daxton had something come up today and couldn’t make it, so I came instead. I hope you don’t mind."
"Of course, I don’t mind!" Alice smiled and said, "I’ve wanted to meet you for a long time, and this is a perfect opportunity! You’re even more handsome than in the photos!"
"Daxton said you are a very lovely woman, and it seems he was right." Jacob said. From Daxton, he knew that Alice was aware of their relationship, but at this moment, Alice looked at him as if he were just a normal person. Her gaze was clear, her smile casual yet sincere, without any pretense.
All of this made him feel relaxed.
Upon hearing this, Alice blushed a bit, "Ah, do you really think I’m cute? But I’m already 23 this year, and in seven months, I’ll be a mom."
Jacob smiled, "This has nothing to do with age or becoming a mom; it’s about the feeling you give people. Being with you is a very comfortable experience."
Alice’s face turned even redder. Well, being praised like this by a handsome guy did somewhat satisfy her vanity.
Not far away, Dorian Howards, witnessing this scene, didn’t feel the slightest bit relieved but instead had an urge to grind his teeth in frustration. Alice Conley, that girl, to smile at a man like that... Does she even realize how much it makes someone want to devour her whole?
At this moment, Dorian completely forgot to consider if beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Seeing Alice chatting happily with that stranger, Dorian couldn’t help but feel a wave of irritation and depression.
The more he watched, the more annoyed he became, yet he couldn’t stop watching.
Suddenly, Jacob in the dessert shop said, "By the way, Alice, do you know a good-looking man, around 30, with a middle part hairstyle?"
