My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 617

I nodded and shook hands with her. With a small smile, I said, "I'm his ex-wife, Arianna. Nice to meet you, Miss Sierra."

She was startled for a moment before saying, "Ex-wife? You and Mr. Roberts are divorced?"

I nodded, "It's been four years."

Sierra seemed to be surprised, but she was an actress after all. She controlled her facial expressions very well. She smiled, "You both can go ahead. I'll go and see my friend first."

Hendrix didn't say a word but just nodded his head indifferently.

I just smiled, not saying anything.

After Sierra was at a distance, I felt Hendrix staring at me. Scared of that look on his face, I couldn't help but say, "If you keep looking at me like this, I'm afraid you'll spoil the food."

He chuckled and elegantly cut the steak brought by the waiter into pieces and exchanged them for my untouched steak.

I never liked to cut steak as I was clumsy in doing so. In the past, Monique mentioned that it felt like dissecting a body when cutting a steak.

Half the reason why people liked to use knives and forks was that, for a long time, they basically ate raw food, so they only ate as they cut.

I didn't verify that conclusion of Monique's, but I more or less had this thought in my mind.

Sierra was sitting not too far away. From her position, she could clearly see where Hendrix and I were.

"Drink some juice first!" Hendrix said as he brought the glass of juice to my mouth.

I was forced to drink it and couldn't help but laugh. Most of his actions were intentional.

"I'll do it myself. You don't have to be so deliberate!" It was not a lie. With Sierra's beautiful eyes looking at me from such a distance, I felt somewhat uncomfortable.

"Since we're in a relationship, it's better to be closer." He was indeed doing it on purpose.

I sighed. He was getting back at me because I introduced myself as his ex-wife!

Looking at the piece of steak brought to the corner of my mouth, I felt a little helpless. "I really can do it by myself."

He raised his eyebrows. "I like to feed you."
