I could only nod and say, "Okay."
I felt a bit awkward during this meal because Dylan kept looking at me from time to time. His gaze was as direct and open as before.
Before I married Frederic, Dylan was my most determined pursuer. I met Dylan through Greta. Even though Dylan knew I was infatuated with Frederic, he still didn't give up and made every effort to pursue me.
But I couldn't decide my feelings, just like Frederic resisted me, I also resisted Dylan.
At that time, once my other pursuers found out that the person I liked was Frederic, they would give up. But Dylan never gave up from the beginning to the end.
Until I graduated from college and married Frederic, Dylan entrusted Greta to bring me a wedding gift, and then he went to the overseas branch of his company.
I really feel a bit embarrassed. In the past, I repeatedly rejected Dylan for Frederic. But now, when I meet Dylan again, Frederic and I are almost divorced.
After finishing the meal, Dylan went to settle the bill. Greta took the opportunity to quickly say to me, "Syl, think about my brother. Anyway, you're planning to get divorced. After trying to be with the person you love, you can also try being with someone who loves you, right?"
"The problem is I really didn't have any feelings for your brother!" I felt very helpless towards the persistent Greta.
"Don't worry, my brother has been waiting for you for five years. He can wait for you to completely let go of the person in your heart," Greta said boldly, as if Dylan had immortality and time in abundance.
Not far away, Yasmin was also smiling at me. She knew about the things between me, Yasmin, and Dylan.
I quickly avoided her gaze. Little did I know, Cecelia and Janessa surrounded me again, "Yeah, Syl, I think Greta's brother was really nice. He was also handsome!"
"He went to great lengths to pursue you in the past, I must say I am impressed!"
They kept persuading me by my side. I felt a headache. This scene resembled the scene where I was forced into marriage.
Thanks to Dylan for finishing the bill and coming over. Greta and the others immediately fell silent. Dylan smiled gently, "Now let's go downstairs."
After speaking, Dylan handed me the food box and said, "Syl, I saw that you really enjoyed eating crawfish pie earlier, so I asked the waiter to pack a portion for you. Take it and have it as a midnight snack tonight."
Greta laughed wildly on the side, her eyes darting back and forth between me and Dylan. I was afraid she would laugh herself into a faint.
The elevator door opened at this moment. I looked inside the elevator and was instantly stunned.
Emilia stood in the middle of Frederic, Tristan, Davin, and Jaylen, looking like a princess guarded by knights.
Emilia was originally laughing, but as soon as she saw me, she immediately became uneasy, "Sylvia."
She and Frederic stood in the middle, Tristan stood on her left side, while Davin and Jaylen stood on her right side towards the back.
Anyone could see that she and Frederic were getting very close, they were practically arm in arm.
Frederic's gaze quickly fell upon Dylan. He also knew Dylan.
"Syl, who is this girl?" Dylan noticed something was wrong and asked softly.
"Her name was Emilia Farrington. She was also in the music department at Aroma University, sort of like my junior." I replied softly, then took the food box from Dylan's hand. "Thank you, Dylan. I'll make sure to finish it when I get back."
Several people, including Frederic, had already stepped out of the elevator. I was the first to step into the elevator, ignoring Frederic's somewhat gloomy face. I sweetly called out to Dylan and Greta, "Dylan, Greta, why don't you come in quickly? I'll treat you to a karaoke session, going home is so boring."
Greta knew that I was intentionally saying this. She glanced at Emilia and Frederic, "Yeah, let's go sing. After all, there's no one waiting for you at home. Some people have been lured away by their mistresses outside, and it's not fun to go home alone to an empty house. Let's go!"
