Charming Lady Hard to Chase After Being Dumped novel Chapter 103

The service staff soon started serving the food.

Although they were at an Italian restaurant, the food was surprisingly served to them on small plates like the other time. The sight of the numerous little plates of food on the table made Nora's eyes twitch again and again.

What the heck was this?

The bored young woman held her fork idly and took bite after bite.

Opposite her, Justin's lip corners slowly curled into a smile. He said, "Ms. Smith, you should chew your food well and eat slowly. It's not good for your health if you eat too fast."

"..."

Even so, surely one couldn't eat that slowly either, right?!

Some of the plates had only two cucumber strips on them...

Nora suspected that Justin was doing this on purpose. After all, when she was on her way here just now, the diners in the hall had all been using normal-sized plates.

She twirled the bit of pasta in the bowl with her fork and casually put it into her mouth.

Seeing how bored she was, Justin tried to find something to talk about. He asked, "How did you know that the real estate industry won't do too well in the future, Ms.

Smith?"

Nora swallowed the pasta and speared a piece of vegetable from the salad bowl. Only then did she reply, "Weren't you the one who told me that, Mr. Hunt?"

Justin raised his brows. Then, he heard her continue. "I heard that the Lowes approached the Hunts first, but the Hunts refused the offer."

Justin let out a low chuckle and replied, "But outsiders are also saying that I was just in a bad mood because of my son."

Nora blinked. She rested on the table with one arm and lazily put the vegetable into her mouth with her other hand. "Well, if Mr. Hunt were one to do business based on his mood, the Hunt Corporation wouldn't be what it is today. You've always had a good eye for business."

"..."

Justin had nearly grown up having praises sung of him. Everyone hailed him as a business genius but he had never cared about what they said.

But when the woman flippantly said that he had always had a good eye for business, he actually found himself in an exceptionally good mood.

He picked up the glass of apple juice next to him without much thought and took a sip to conceal his smile, but when he looked back up, he instead saw Nora staring at him in shock. She said, "That's my juice you're drinking, Mr. Hunt."

Justin, "I!"

His gaze fell onto the glass of juice. There seemed to be remnants of the warmth of the woman's lips on the rim of the glass, making him feel like his lips had been

scalded a little.

However, he pretended to be calm and put the glass down. Then, he immediately said, "Oh. Sorry, I picked up the wrong glass."

Nora couldn't help being astonished when she noticed that his earlobes seemed to have turned a little red.

Little did she think that the dignified leader of the number one family and the Imperial League's ruthless and decisive Eagle would actually have moments where he was shy and innocent?

In particular, when he innocently cast his seemingly bottomless eyes down, even the beauty mark at the corner of his eye seemed to be exuding an alluring aura that screamed 'Please bully me'... It actually made her lick her lips for some inexplicable reason.

The atmosphere suddenly became rather romantic, and even the air seemed to have become somewhat thick and viscous.

After dinner, the two went to the car park together.

When they were walking past the restaurant's main hall, Nora suddenly sensed a probing gaze. Her head whipped to the side, but what entered her sight was instead a lush green curtain of devil's ivy that blocked her from the view beyond.

As the plants swayed, behind the dappled light through the gaps, she seemed to see a man in a white suit sitting there quietly and looking at the menu.

It seemed like everything just now was just an illusion.

Nora's brows knitted together. For some reason, it suddenly gave her the creeps.

She suppressed the feeling and followed Justin to the car park.

Before they separated, Nora asked, "Where is your birthday party going to be held tomorrow, Mr. Hunt?"
