Chapter 1397
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
People wouldnât realize the importance of having a good spouse until they were old and unable to move about freely.
Having children was good!
In short, the more parents worried about their children, the more successful the café become.
Fine, then!
Isaac Larson, the boss of the roadside café, simply stopped doing anything. As long as they werenât bad people or people he found too disagreeable, he let everyone in for blind dates.
Let the café become as cramped and noisy as a marketplace! Who would want to bring their children here for blind dates if that happened, huh?
The waitress, Ginny, didnât need to guess to know that her boss was the reason for todayâs noisy and cramped venue. He had arranged the blind date scene in a desperate attempt to become poor.
Unfortunately for him, these people who came for blind dates didnât feel disgusted at all. On the contrary, they cooperated well.
It was mainly because Ginny was competent and not at all clumsy in handling things.
Under her coordination, these people were well-organized. Ms. Jarvis was especially so; she seemed displeased in the beginning, but later on, she became more and more cooperative.
Most importantly, she was beautiful. Yet her eyes revealed her foolish naïvetéâshe was as immature as a college student.
Ginny couldnât help but step in to help Cecilia and give some hints. She hoped that Cecilia could find a suitable match in their café.
Ginny returned to her senses, and focused on the task at hand. She repeated the blind date rules.
âIf youâre interested in each other after chatting, you can lift the curtain to see each otherâs faces. Just press the pink bell next to you. As soon as the bell rings, I will come over and help you lift the bamboo curtain.â
âAlright.â
âGot it.â
Everyone nodded, officially entering the blind date session. The coffee was rich, and the surroundings were arranged to feel secure.
Cecilia quickly relaxed, and focused on chatting with the person opposite her.
Noel didnât wear a voice changer. However, having been Julianâs assistant for so many years, he had seen and experienced everything. He had a wide range of knowledge.
Since Julian had worn a voice changer when he wanted to invest in Dianaâs studio in the past, Noel was familiar with it.
Someone wearing a voice changer spoke differently from normal. Noel had a good intuition, and could tell right away.
âAre you wearing a voice changer?â
Cecilia was stunned, wondering why this man seemed a bit straightforward.
Not only did the silhouette resemble Noel a bit, but even his impolite and tactless directness was somewhat similar to Noelâs.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updatesâ¦
However, it couldnât be him. To Cecilia, an ambitious man like him who aimed to use others to elevate his status wouldnât come to this mixed blind date event.
Moreover, it was a working day. Noel was Julianâs assistant, and Julian wouldnât let him take time off during the workweek so easily.
Wage earners and people like her, who lived a privileged life, were different.
Ceciliaâs thoughts grew clearer: she and Noel were never meant to be together. Just as Sue had said, they should never have started dating in the first place.
âYes.â
The manâs directness was quite refreshing. It was better than evasive types. Those were difficult to handle.
Thinking of this, Cecilia relaxed quite a bit.
She smiled, and asked in return, âDo you mind?â
Noel shook his head. âI donât mind. I just noticed that your toneâs different from your normal speaking voice, and I wanted to verify if my assumption was right.â
Working alongside Julian, he always had to think about improving his abilities. Only by becoming powerful and indispensable would he become the irreplaceable assistant by Julianâs side.
He wanted to be someone who could help Julian solve many problems.
Noel was genuinely grateful to Diana and the Julian family.
Therefore, he treated the blind date Diana had arranged for him more seriously. This time, he could finally use the skills he accumulated from work in his personal life.
âIf you mind, I can also wear a voice changer,â he offered.
âNo, thereâs no need for that,â Cecilia said.
She didnât know why, but she suddenly found this man quite amusing. She had just spaced out for a moment, and couldnât quickly respond to his words. However, he assumed she was upset about his question.
He was quite the thoughtful man.
Totally different from that blockhead, Noel!
