Reborn Before The Divorce

Nydia felt like she had been running in a dream and woke up feeling exhausted. Even her legs were sore.

When Jesse knocked on the door and came in, she still felt dazed. She didn’t know why she saw the shadow of the boy on Jesse, even though she had not seen his face.

“I will take you to the Malone Villa later,” Jesse’s voice brought Nydia back to reality.

Nydia hesitated for a moment before nodding.

Jesse was probably worried that the Malones would trouble her, so he wanted to escort her to the villa and pick her up later. That way, the Malones would not dare to do anything.

“But first, I want to go to the restaurant to check on the decoration,” Nydia said. The restaurant was more important to her.

“Okay.”

After breakfast, Jesse and Nydia set off. When they arrived at the restaurant, Nydia thought Jesse would stay in the car, but he got out too. The decoration of the restaurant was beginning to take shape and looked good. It was the effect she wanted.

“Sir, Madam,” the person in charge of the restaurant’s decoration greeted them. “You’ve been working hard during this period.”

Nydia knew that this person had been helping to watch over the restaurant during this time. Otherwise, she would have had to do it herself.

“This is what I should do,” he replied.

“How long will it take to finish the decoration?”

“If there are no problems, it should only take half a month. This is the date I agreed with them. Take a look.” He showed her his work notebook, which was very meticulous.

“It’s okay.”

Nydia looked around and checked some of the details. Everything was fine, so she felt relieved. The restaurant had two floors. Upstairs, there were two large private rooms and three small ones, all of which were carefully designed to ensure that customers would feel comfortable while dining.

“Did Vergil arrange for this person, or did you?” Nydia asked Jesse.

“What do you think?” Jesse obviously didn’t want to answer such a stupid question.

But Nydia’s eyes lit up. This man had improved. He was willing to admit it, although not in a direct way. For Jesse, it was still a big step forward. She thought he would answer directly, “Vergil.”

After confirming that the restaurant’s decoration was okay, she and Jesse went to the Malone Villa for lunch. It was a pre-arranged thing, so the Malones were not surprised to see her. However, they were still a little surprised when they saw Jesse.

“Jesse is also here. Come in,” Mr. Malone said, trying to hide his surprise.

“I’m here to bring her. There’s something to deal with at the company. I’ll come back later to pick her up,” Jesse said and left.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

Laura couldn’t help but ask after he left, “Nydia, does he keep such a close eye on you now?”

Picking her up and dropping her off? Was it a trick?

Nydia didn’t say anything and deliberately let Laura misunderstand.

Willette was not there for lunch today. Only Cade and Laura were present.

“Where is Willette?” Nydia asked.

“She’s got something to do.”

“I don’t want to trouble you with my birthday. I’m not a child anymore, so there’s no need to…” Nydia started to say, but Cade interrupted her.

“How can you call it a trouble? Of course, we must celebrate such an important day as your birthday. You used to celebrate it every year when your parents were around, and even now that they’re gone, you still have to celebrate it. Otherwise, how can I justify myself to your parents?” Cade said sternly.

“Don’t worry about the birthday. Just show up on the day, and Willette will take care of everything,”

Nydia agreed reluctantly.

She had a feeling that they would do something at the birthday party.

Many things had changed now, and she couldn’t use the past as a reference. She had to take things one step at a time.

“Nydia, why do I feel that you’re distancing yourself from us?” Cade looked at Nydia and asked, with a sharp gaze that peeked through his glasses.
