Chapter 20 Dine with me



Chapter 20 Dine with me

“The last question, why did you come back?” Dan keeps asking.

“I have eaten enough Spain food.” Jamie answers in complain.

Dan laughs. Though he knows that she just talked nonsense, it still makes his mood become better. His voice still sounds cold, “ Come to work tomorrow.”

Does that means she is hired? Does she get the job through relationship? Jamie thinks. Despite all these, Jamie is happy. At least, working in C&R is very well-paid.

“Okay, then I will leave first.” Jamie says to Dan.

Leave? Dan can’t help thinking of the night when he was going to the Moore’s family for her, but only got the news that Jamie had been driven out. Then he has searched the entire Leeds for her, and how powerless he feels every time when he got no clues about Jamie.

“Wait. You haven’t come back to Leeds for a long time. I will get you familiar with the surrounding first.” Dan pulls Jamie out of the office, and heads to the underground parking.

“Get in.” Dan opens the door of Jamie’s side and says to her.

Jamie gets into the car skillfully.

Dan gets inside the car and puts his seat belt on. Seeing Jamie sits still, Dan moves closer to Jamie.

Jamie stops breathing for a second, her heart beating fast. When she doesn’t know how to react, Dan has helped her put the seat belt on, and drives like nothing has happened.

I’m such a fool! Jamie thinks, and feels so embarrassed. She just thought that Dan was trying to kiss her.

Dan sees Jamie’s face is blushed, he asks, “You feel hot?”

“Ah? No.” Jamie turns her head aside, in case Dan finds out her embarrassment.

“Are you just shy?” Dan says in a good mood.

“Why would I get shy? You are the one who gets shy.” Jamie talks back.

Dan smiles and drives into the highway, “ Don’t constrain yourself, just be how you were like in the old times.”

“Old times?” Jamie confuses. When did she ever get familiar with Dan?

Dan’s face turns gloomily. After Jamie left, Dan has dug up all her background and information. To his surprised, Jamie is the girl who used to live next to him, no wonder he finds her familiar. But clearly, Jamie has already forgotten about him.

“Where are we going?” Jamie asks. The atmosphere gets better for that. Watching the view that goes backwards, Jamie can’t recognize where are they. How big change has happened during these five years.

“Food street.” Dan has driven off the highway when he answers Jamie. The speed becomes steady after a turn.

Food street? “ How do you know that...” I’m hungry.

Before Jamie can finish her words, her stomach helps finish that.

Jamie lower her head in embarrassment. What a shame! She should have ate more than just a piece of bread this morning.

How disgraceful she is!

“Haha.” Dan smiles and then laughs.

“ We’re here.” Dan says and gets out from the car, Jamie follows.

The aroma form the dessert shop makes Jamie become hungrier.

When the desserts are served to the table. Jamie can’t wait digging in.

Dan looks at Jamie, noticing that she only focus on eating. Dan gets a bit angry for being ignored.

Jamie feels something wrong at the moment. She looks up and sees Dan’s cold face. Frowning, Jamie thinks, what is he upset about? He wants to eat too?

Looking at these delicate desserts, Jamie is hesitating whether she should share them with Dan or not. Finally, she passes the dessert that has already bitten by her to Dan, “ Do you want some?” NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

Dan is at ease, looking how unwilling Jamie is, makes him feel it funny. Still, he has a bite of the desert.

The dessert is in small portion, not much left after Dan’s bite. Jamie eats the rest in hurry, and moves on to the next one.

Jamie is so insensitive that she misses the meaningful smile of Dan.

Finishes all the desserts, Jamie leans on the seat satisfying.

Watching the empty plates, Jamie asks embarrassedly, “I ate them all accidentally, do you need to order more? “

That is not accidentally, Jamie just can’t stop when she is with foods.

“No need. Come to dine with me.” Dan stands up and walks out.

“Okay.” Jamie follows.

It’s good to have long leg. It seems that Dan is walking casually, but Jamie has to jog a bit to catch up with Dan. So, Jamie stops catching up to Dan, she is not going to make it anyway. Thus, Jamie walks in her normal speed.

When Jamie slows down, Dan slows down also. There is only three steps distance between them.

He’s doing this purposely. Jamie thinks.

After dinner, Jamie watches her fully stocked stomach gloomily. She wasn’t going to eat anything after the dinner, but she still ate the fruit and desserts that served after.

Pennines House.

Ian keeps watching by the window, he is curious when he sees the black Bugatti Veyron of Dan.

The sky has darken already, the orange street light shines upon Dan’s face through the car’s window. Though Dan says nothing, his aggressive momentum can still be felt.

The atmosphere inside the car is a bit embarrassing.

“Em.. I will go then.” Jamie doesn’t like embarrassment, so she talks to break the ice.

“You don’t invite me to visit your house?” Dan says with a smile.

Visit?! Jamie gets nervous. Because Ian is at the house, if Dan comes visit, her secret will be exposed. Jamie thinks.

“No!” Jamie says loudly and nervously.

Dan looks at Jamie with his lips compressed, unsatisfied and unpleasant.

Then Jamie realizes what is going on. When did Dan ever get rejected like this, he must be angry now.

Jamie looks down to her thighs, feeling nervous and insecure.

No one knows how long has it been. Dan says coldly,” get off.” Jamie opens the doors and gets off. The second she closed the door, the car rushes out.

Jamie looks at the direction that the car disappeared, thinking, haven’t seen him for few years. He becomes harder to understand, turning against people so quick.

Hearing the door is opened, Ian comes down from the chair that next to the window, and walks to Jamie,” Welcome home, Mommy.”

“Come on, Ian baby.” Jamie says to Ian and kisses him on the cheek. The moment Jamie sees Ian, all her worries go away. “ How was your day? Are you getting used to the new school?” Jamie asks.

“No bad. How about you, Mommy? Who gave you a lift today?” Ian asks with his eyes squinting.

Ian knows that Jamie rarely hitchhikes. What’s more, today is her first day for work, she won’t hitchhikes some strangers to home.There mush be something he doesn’t know, Ian thinks.
