Chapter 1209

His gaze lingered on the trio, noticing how Miley chatted animatedly with Roy, a joy in her demeanor that once was reserved for him alone.

He clenched his hands, a strong sense of jealousy and anger surged in his heart.

Rationality was the only thing restraining him from confronting Roy.

Suddenly, Susie grasped Neville’s arm with an apologetic smile.

“Neville, sorry to keep you waiting.

What were you looking at just now?”

Prior to her arrival, Susie had noticed Neville’s distant demeanor.

As Neville tried to shield her view, Susie had already caught sight of Miley.

In a feigned casual tone, Susie remarked, “Ah, observing your ex-girlfriend, I see.

”

Feeling a tinge of embarrassment, Neville firmly took Susie’s hand and suggested, “Let’s dine somewhere else.

Our group has several excellent restaurants.

”

“Why change plans? Weren’t we excited about revisiting the place where we first met?” Susie was unwilling to leave.

“Are you trying to avoid your ex so desperately?”

Her tone lightened, half-joking, half-serious.

Disliking the turn of events, Neville clarified, “You know, it’s not like that at all.

”

“Then, let’s go say hello.

” Before Neville could react, Susie was already striding towards Miley’s table.

Seeing that he couldn’t stop her, Neville hurried after her.

He was anxious to prevent any unpleasant encounter.

Approaching Miley, Susie greeted in a neutral tone, “Hello, Miss Cullen, I’m Susie Blakely.

It’s been a while.

What brings you here tonight?”

Miley offered a brief glance and remained silent.

Susie, not missing a beat, playfully clung to Neville’s arm.

“Honey, since Miss Cullen is an old friend, why not treat her to dinner?”

Neville was momentarily speechless, unsure how to respond.

Miley declined with a slight smile.

“No need, my boyfriend will cover it”

Adopting a distant yet polite demeanor, Stella interjected, “Miss Blakely, is there something else? If not, please, we’d prefer not to be disturbed.

”

Susie’s expression changed in an instant.

“Stella, enjoy your meal.

” Neville hurried to take Susie away.
