"Someone's here."
Cecilia instantly replied with a laugh, "You got to keep your work updated, or your readers will really flip."
She headed towards the person who had just pushed open the glass door, took a glance, and couldn't help but marvel.
He was such a hunk.
She kept on looking at the guest's face, which resembled a movie star’s face. She was searching her mind for words to describe that handsome man, like debonair, unmatched, but in the end, she decided that handsome was the most fitting!
Simple and clear.
"Is this a coffee shop?"
The man was a bit embarrassed by Cecilia's intense gaze, he looked around and then asked Cecilia.
Did he get the wrong address?
The address given to him was of this place.
The photo given to him was of this girl.
Avery Cooper mumbled to himself, “Could the target be actually someone who's crushing on him?”
He was just there to do his job, and he didn't want any trouble. What if she really fancied him? What would he do in that situation?
Within a minute, Avery had already thought through all the possible scenarios.
"Yep, this is a coffee shop, called Serendipity Cafe. In Pinehurst, our shop is quite famous."
Cecilia's surprise only lasted for a minute, quickly, she returned to her normal self, and greeted Avery with a smile, "Find a spot to sit, want coffee or tea? Our desserts here are pretty good too, many people love coming here, want to give it a try?"
The other customers thought to themselves, “We're actually here to see her.”
Avery breathed a sigh of relief; it was good that he hadn't gone to the wrong place.
"I thought I had walked into a dating spot because your gaze scared me as soon as I walked in."
He felt like a lamb to the slaughter.
Cecilia laughed out loud, "Have you ever been to a dating spot? How was it? Are all the guys there just as handsome as you?"
She wanted to take a look too. The so-called dating spot.
"Nah, I've never been there."
Avery sat down at a table by the window, casually saying, "If you're interested, you can check it out and share your experience with me when you come back, satisfy my curiosity."
Saying that, he took out a business card and gave it to Cecilia, "Just give me a call when you get that experience."
Cecilia was even more amused. She was just joking, but she didn't expect the guest to have such a sense of humor, even giving her a business card.
She took the card, looked at it, and it turned out that he was a model for a male fashion brand, no wonder he had such a great figure and was so handsome.
"Mr. Cooper, what would you like to drink?"
"I worked until 3 a.m. last night, and I have work again later, I'm not in the best state right now, I need a cup of coffee to pick me up, I'll have a latte."
"Do you want any pastries?"
Avery replied with a smile, "This is my first time visiting the Serendipity Cafe, but like you said, your coffee shop is quite famous in Pinehurst, I've heard about it for a while, and since I was passing by today, I decided to come in for a taste, since I'm here, may as well serve me some pastries too. If I find it to be good, I will introduce more friends to come visit your shop."
"Mr. Cooper, don't worry, I guarantee you'll become one of our regulars. Please wait a moment."
