Love Mission: Ex-wife Strikes Back - Chapter 568 Quarrel
“Can’t you understand what I’m saying?” Consuela asked angrily. “I’m asking you to leave as soon as possible. Are you deaf?”
“Julia, I…” Jean still wanted to say something.
“Are we done here?” Terence looked at Jean coldly, his voice heavy with disgust. “If you’re not leaving, then I’ll go ahead.”
“Wait! Terence…” As Jean was about to grab Terence’s hand, the lights in the restaurant suddenly went out. The room was filled with gasps and groans of bewilderment.
Julia’s heart skipped a beat. She had been afraid of darkness since she was a child. Now that the lights were out, she could not help but scream. The next thing she knew, she was held in a warm embrace, a familiar and reassuring scent flooding her nose.
She knew she was wrapped around in Terence’s arms.
Her mind told her that she should push him away, but her arms wouldn’t move.
“I’m really sorry, everyone. We’re having a small problem with the circuit. We’re repairing it as I speak. Ple
top by and eat here with us? I’ll make you some beef noodles.”
“No, thanks,” Terence replied bluntly. “You can eat by yourself. I have something else to do, so I’m leaving now.”
He said goodbye to Barton and left.
Looking at Terence’s car leaving, Jean sighed deeply.
It seemed that she had made Terence completely upset this time.
It was not surprising; no one would like to be used selfishly like that.
“What happened, Jean?” Barton glanced at Jean and asked.
“Nothing.” Jean smiled awkwardly. “Dad, have you had dinner yet?”
“Yes, I have,” Barton replied. “What happened? Tell me. If nothing bad had happened, why did Terence look so gloomy? Did you piss him off?”
With an embarrassed smile, Jean kept what happened earlier from her father. “Maybe it’s because he’s too tired. He has been working overtime in the company these days and hasn’t had a good rest.”
“Jean, is there really nothing wrong?” Obviously, Barton did not believe her excuse.
