Pampered Wedding Marry Me, Mr. Langford

Chapter 90

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 my heel right after I stepped on his feet to distract him. That’s why I was so anxious when I came back to the lounge.” Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

John smiled and thought, ‘That really does sound like what Tina would do!’ “You must be scared out of your 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 that she 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, “I don’t think so. It’s best to separate work and personal time.” “Okay,” the assistant turned to leave instantly.

Tina heaved a sigh of relief when John refused to meet them. “What exactly happened between you and Samuel?” John asked worriedly.

Tina hesitated. She didn’t know how to explain it to John and simply said, “We have nothing to do with each other anymore.”

“Really?” John questioned. “But why are you shivering in fear at the mention of Samuel? Did he do anything bad to you?”

John sounded very much concerned. Tina was positive that John would actually confront Samuel then and 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 awkward for 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 pry further. “Don’t worry, Tina. As long as I’m here, they can’t do anything to you.” “I know.” Although Tina didn’t bump into Samuel, the thought of his presence at the restaurant left her nervous to the point that she 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 we meet.”

John strode towards the door.

Just as Tina was about to follow him, Cindy’s coy voice rang from outside. “Mr. Carter! Fancy seeing you here!”
