Playing Cute In Front Of My Ex-Husband

Chapter 271 

A friend beside her dragged Thalia out of the restaurant.

The expression on her face was saying that she wasn't happy at what had happened inside the restaurant.

If her friend didn't stop her, she might have let herself say more unpleasant words. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Katherine had heard too many unpleasant words.She had become used to it, so she didn't care so much about what Thalia had said.

"As you can see, we didn't get along well with each other.I'm afraid that you might've found our encounter funny." Liam snorted at what she said.

"I just didn't expect that you would be able to express yourself that well." Katherine looked at him with a smile on her face but did not reply anymore about that.

"Let's go, Mr.Smith," she said as she stood up and waited for Liam to do the same.

The two of them left the Blue Water Dining.It was pouring outside that they had to jog to the car.

After getting in the car, Liam asked her for her address.

"You're not in the best mood.If you're tired, you can take a nap first.I'll just wake you up once we're in front of your house," Liam said while starting the car and not throwing her a single glance.

"Thank you, Mr.Smith."

The conversation back at the restaurant had drained all the energy she had, so she accepted his suggestion without any hesitation.She wanted to at least let her mind be at peace for a few minutes.

Kathrine didn't pretend to be polite when she said that.

Rather, the words carelessly came out of her mouth without any second thoughts.She turned her head and stared out of the window.

It was pouring outside, and the sky was gloomy as it entirely covered the sun.

Liam turned to look at her and saw that her head was leaning against the window.He thought Katherine was sleeping, so he decided not to wake her up.

On the other side of the road, a car stopped.

Katherine was stunned.It was extremely similar to Zack's car.

Ten seconds later, the green light in front of them flashed.

Liam slowly stepped on the gas, and the car slowly drove while Katherine's eyes were still on the black car.

Zack looked over at Katherine, who was sitting at the front passenger seat of the sports car.

The blue sports car slowly sped up when the light turned green and disappeared from his sight in less than two seconds.

Seeing him blankly staring into thin air and not making a sound, Aidan cautiously called him, "Mr.Colburn?"

Aidan had been sitting by his side the entire time.

Seeing that Zack had opened his mouth for a long time, he could only call him tentatively to get his attention.

Unexpectedly, Aidan caught his attention.

Zack turned his head and looked at him with cold eyes.

Aidan's heart almost leaped from his chest as his back tensed up because of Zack's cold stare.

"Do you have any idea about Smith Company's new project?"

This question was unexpected, and Aidan was stunned for a moment before he cleared his throat.

"It was said that Smith Real Estate Company aims to build an Ocean Park.Mr.Smith came to Y city two days ago for a field study." Zack frowned.

Liam was planning a project in Y City, which meant that he would have different ways of contacting Katherine.

‘Does Liam know Katherine even before?’ he asked himself.

Aidan didn't know how to answer Zack's question.

"I'm not too sure either, Mr.Colburn," he honestly replied.

Zack coldly stared at him.He was not satisfied with his secretary's answer.

"Then go and find it out." Liam was casual and was quite a fuckboy.

He wouldn't treat women seriously.He would change flings every three days, and he would at least have three to five girlfriends in a year.

When it came to choosing a girlfriend, Liam didn’t have any specific criteria.

His only criteria for choosing a girlfriend was someone good-looking with a nice body.

Just now, Zack saw Katherine in Liam's car.

A lot of thoughts ran through Zack's mind, but he didn't want to think about it.

Zack knew that Katherine was not the type of woman that would not think things through and would just go with the likes of Liam.

However, as a man, he was convinced that Katherine was attractive enough to Liam.

As he thought about it, he felt a certain pain in his chest.She was like a sparkling gem that had been clean after the divorce.She began to reveal her stunning beauty, attracting more attention and admiration.

Zack was one of the people who admired her beauty from afar.He knew that he was also one of the people who had hurt her.

After living for 32 years, this was the first time for Zack to get this worried about such trivial things.

When Katherine returned to her villa, it was already past one o'clock.

Liam did what he promised.He drove her home after eating and did not bother her anymore.

Katherine didn't lie when she said she didn't sleep well last night.She could not really sleep last night.She was so tired that she had fallen asleep throughout the drive.

The moment she stepped foot in her room, she immediately closed the curtains and laid down on her bed.

She wanted to get more sleep and rest.She had always had a good sleep, but last night was different.She had a series of nightmares that woke her up in the middle of the night, putting her in a bad mood for the rest of the day.She slept until I five o'clock.

So, when Katherine opened her eyes, the room was dark and emitted a heavy aura.

The light on the phone next to her flashed, almost blinding her from the sudden brightness.She grunted before she turned around, grabbing the phone.She looked at her phone screen and saw that Celine had called her at three o'clock in the afternoon.

Probably because she didn't pick up, she sent her a message on Telegram and explained the purpose of the phone call.
