Chapter 843 Doesn’t He Love You Back
Shirley also happily hugged her. "Janet, let me have a look at you!"
Janet dragged her to a seat and then picked for her some of the best-selling cookies her shop had.
"Janet, you're more beautiful than ever! Your face is shining, just like... you're in love with someone!" After tasting the Tiramisu, Shirley looked at her even more closely. Yes, she was in a good mood and she looked very shiny. 'She must surely be in love with someone!' Shirley thought.
Janet's face then turned red when she remembered of him. She sighed, and said, "I'm not in love with anyone, but actually I just... fell in love with someone."
Shirley stopped eating, and said, "Fall in love with someone? Doesn't he love you back?"
'How could he not love back this cute little girl?'
Janet held her face in her hands and shook her head. "I don't know, " she said.
'I can't figure out whether he loves me or not. If he doesn't, why is he with me every night? But if he does, why does he have another girlfriend. Maybe I'm just his bed-friend. Oh, how pathetic!'
"Who is he? Is he that CEO you mentioned of last time?" Shirley had crossed out all the CEOs she had seen on the TV. None of them would match Janet, except for Daniel.
He already had a girlfriend.
That was impossible! It was said that he was like his brother.
'But who is he?' pondered Shirley.
"Let him go. Let destiny have it's way." Janet forced herself to forget about him in her mind. She then turned to Shirley, and said, "Why are you doing here?"
Shirley smiled, and said "I came just to visit you, and to know about how you're doing these days. You're the boss of the shop, and it seems that you run it pretty well!"
"I try my best! I'm very busy most of the time. Shirley, how about becoming my manager next year?" Although Daniel had employed her as the manager, she thought she need one more.
"Really? Me? Be your manager? But I haven't worked a day since I graduated. I won't handle the pressure!" Shirley shook her head and rejected Janet. 'But the Tiramisu is really good...' she thought
“Let's go and register our marriage on your birthday!”
Marrying Daniel should have been her best birthday gift, but everything was ruined the moment when she caught him sleeping with another woman on the day before her birthday.
“He’s going to marry that woman! She... was my best friend!"
, did you miss me?"
John nodded eagerly, and said, "Yes!"
"Good boy. Grandmother! Grandmother! My classmate is here!" Janet dragged Shirley to the dinning room while also holding John in her arms.
Viola greeted her happily, and said, "Jane's classmate, have a seat at the table please."
"Grandmother! Good morning, I'm Shirley, a former classmate of Janet's." She genteelly introduced herself to the elders.
Melody nodded cheerfully, and then said, "Have a seat please. You must be the Shirley that Janet has always mentioned about! The talent!"
"Yes, grandmother! She is was really good at learning, and she always got good grades in our university!" Her commitment had made Janet admire her a lot.
Shirley sat on the sofa and lowered her head because she was shy. "Grandmother, how are you?"
"Oh, I'm fine!"
"Where are all the other people?" Viola had went to prepare some fruit while Janet looked at the second floor doubtfully.
"Your grandfather went to visit his old friend and your parents went to buy John something, " answered Melody.
In the afternoon they left the old house, and Janet drove her Mercedes downtown with Shirley.
"Your great-grandmother and grandmother are so kind!"
Shirley was honest. When they were just about to leave, Viola made sure to put several boxes of tonic inside Janet's car. They were for Shirley's parents.
