My Fair Stunner novel Chapter 251

Chapter 251 True Relationship

Faye was staring blankly in her office when she got Jake's message.

Jake texted again, "You'd better tell him our true relationship earlier, or he would cause us trouble."

Faye texted, "Did you remove the monitor in your office?"

Jake texted, "I can't see the cellphone screen."

Faye texted, "Let's meet to talk about it. Better safe than sorry."

Jake texted, "Tonight?"

Faye texted back, "OK."

Faye tossed her cellphone on the desk and heaved a long, deep sigh, rubbing her forehead.

Half an hour ago, Colin left her office. The sorrow in his eyes had bewildered her.

Near the end of the working day, Faye went off work in advance, took a taxi to the hospital parking lot to get her car, and then phoned Jake.

"Meet at the old place?" Jake said with a chuckle.

"I'll be there in twenty minutes," Faye said.

"I'll be there at about the same time. I'm stuck in traffic," Jake said.

More than 20 minutes later, Faye and Jake met in a tavern room.

Jake arrived a few minutes earlier. When Faye entered the room, he joked, "You're late."

Faye strode forward, sat down opposite Jake, and asked quietly, "Who did Colin send to investigate you?"

Jake pushed a cup of heated wine to Faye, "Your old friend, Alexander."

Hearing that, Faye frowned. "Alexander is not good at face-to-face communication. He's good at investigating people by some means." She didn't take the wine glass.

Jake took a gulp of wine. "You know him well."

"Did he lose to you?" Faye said.

"I gave him a hug and he gave me 300 dollars." Jake laughed.

Faye was speechless, thinking, "What a wise and cunning man."

"The wine tastes good. Would you like some?" Jake said with his chin up.

"Don't drink and drive," Faye said.

"You can ask your perfect husband to pick you up," Jake teased.

Thinking of Colin, Faye said, "I want to stop my therapy."

"Is it because of him?" Jake gave her a knowing glance.

"Mmm." Faye nodded.

Jake shook his head with a smile. "Love is really... a wonderful thing."

"Unfortunately, you will never experience it," Faye said.

"That is hurtful." Jake raised an eyebrow.

Faye finally cracked a smile. She took a sip of the wine and asked, "It tastes good. What kind of wine is it?"

Jake rotated the wine bottle. "It's not on the label."
