He couldn’t help but ask, “Why are you hiding? What happened?” “Nothing!” Tina replied immediately.“Are you sure?”
Tina didn’t want to tell John about what happened today, so she told him about the incident with Mr.Jackson moments ago.
“I was strolling in the backyard just now when some man kept pestering me for my number. I took to myheel right after I stepped on his feet to distract him. That’s why I was so anxious when I came back to thelounge.”
John smiled and thought, ‘That really does sound like what Tina would do!’ “You must be scared out ofyour wits! Not to worry, maybe some good food will make you feel better.”
Tina nodded. Only then did she heave a sigh of relief.
After the dishes were served, John’s assistant entered the room and whispered something into his ears.
John was surprised. “Samuel is here too?” When Tina heard the name ‘Samuel’, she was so afraid thatshe couldn’t even hold the cutlery properly. They slipped her hand and fell to the floor with a loud clang.
Both John and the assistant turned to look at her at the same time.
Embarrassed, Tina whispered in a low voice, “I’m sorry, I don’t know what’s with me today.”
“Do you wish to see him?” the assistant asked, curious.
Tina’s heart almost stopped. ‘No way! What should I do? I’ve managed to get away from Cindy just now,but how am I supposed to make my escape now?’
John could see that Tina was extremely uncomfortable with that idea. So, he said with a casual tone, “Idon’t think so. It’s best to separate work and personal time.” “Okay,” the assistant turned to leaveinstantly.
Tina heaved a sigh of relief when John refused to meet them. “What exactly happened between you andSamuel?” John asked worriedly.
Tina hesitated. She didn’t know how to explain it to John and simply said, “We have nothing to do witheach other anymore.”
“Really?” John questioned. “But why are you shivering in fear at the mention of Samuel? Did he doanything bad to you?”
John sounded very much concerned. Tina was positive that John would actually confront Samuel thenand there if she told him the truth.
To avoid unnecessary problems, she gave an excuse.
“Everyone in Freesia’s terrified of him. Now that we’re not in a relationship anymore, it’s kind of awkwardfor me to bump into him. Besides, I saw Cindy earlier. I’m sure they’re here for a dinner date.”
What Tina said made sense. Noticing that Tina was reluctant to talk about them, John didn’t wish to pryfurther. “Don’t worry, Tina. As long as I’m here, they can’t do anything to you.” “I know.” Although Tinadidn’t bump into Samuel, the thought of his presence at the restaurant left her nervous to the point thatshe couldn’t enjoy her meal at all.
John also noticed that Tina was eager to leave. So, he said, “Let’s head back.”
“Sure, I’ll foot the bill!” Tina replied in a hurry.
However, the waiter answered politely, “The bill has been footed.”
Tina was surprised. “I thought I’m supposed to treat you to dinner tonight!”
“I can see that you weren’t enjoying your time here today. It’s fine, you can treat me the next time wemeet.”
John strode towards the door.
Just as Tina was about to follow him, Cindy’s coy voice rang from outside. “Mr. Carter! Fancy seeing youhere!”
