Love Mission: Ex-wife Strikes Back

"What happened? What did Jean say?" After Barton hung up, he was shocked to find that Mandy was only inches away from him. He instinctively hurried to take a couple of steps back. "It's nothing big. Have you finished eating?"

Mandy nodded. "I’m full. Will Jean come?"

"No," Barton said as he stood up. "Let's go then."

"Okay." She stood up and followed him in silence.

Barton was walking quickly, and she could not catch up to him, so she could only watch his back getting farther and farther from her. The more she watched, the more unwilling she felt.

It was not easy for her to get such a chance to be alone with him, so how could she let him go so easily?

Barton, who felt this meeting was rather torturing, only wanted to leave as soon as possible, so his pace was getting faste

Please excuse me. I've got to go now. Have a good rest."

Mandy called out anxiously, "Mr. Xiao! Mr. Xiao! Barton Xiao!"

Unfortunately, no matter how hard she shouted, he didn't even give her as much as a backward glance.

"Ms. Zhao, are you okay?" Zoe smiled and walked towards Mandy. "If you feel uncomfortable, please tell me. I'll call the doctor for you."

"No, thanks! I'm fine. You don't have to go through all those troubles for me," Mandy sneered.

Zoe smiled. Mandy’s curtness didn’t make her angry at all. "Those are no troubles. Mr. Xiao asked me to take care of you. I’m just doing my duty."
