Chapter 19
Half an hour later, the car stopped at Santana Delights.
Lenora had reserved a spot before leaving home. After giving her name, she was led to a window-side table.
However, the situation was somewhat dramatic. Before the three of them could sit down, they spotted Harley and Katelyn at a table in the distance.
The events from a month ago seemed vividly fresh in Cassidy’s memory. Thinking about how Katelyn had deliberately brought the old witch to cause trouble for Lenora that day. Cassidy was ready to roll up her sleeves and start a new round of
But before she could speak, Lenora raised one hand to stop her. Aren’t you hungry?”
Her s***y eyes swept over Cassidy indifferently, and Cassidy opened her mouth, finally deciding to sit down obediently and ignore the despicable couple.
Upon seeing the menu, she quickly forgot who was sitting behind her, looking at Lenora with a pitiful gaze. “Nora, you wouldn’t be so cruel as to watch me eat grass, would you?”
Lenora took a sip of her lemonade. “Order, but don’t tell Linda that I’m treating.”
“Don’t worry. I won’t sell you out!” Cassidy giggled.
Lenora didn’t banter with her further, instead, she handed the menu to Anthony across the table. “Order whatever you Don’t be shy.”
Itke.
Cassidy could get along with anyone, and although Anthony was cold and spoke little, with her and Lenora chattering away about the ad shooting incidents, the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Compared to their lively chatting. Harley and Katelyn’s table was extremely frigid.
“Harley?” Katelyn tried to start a conversation.
Since sitting down, Harley had barely shown her a pleasant expression. When she saw Lenora a moment ago, she thought she had won.
Hearing her, Harley merely gave her a cold glance, his face expressionless, yet his dark eyes revealed a hint of impatience. “Where’s Mr. Sheppard?”
“My dad got held up on the way; he’ll be here soon. Katelyn’s face stiffened.
Harley stood up directly. “We’ll discuss it again when Mr. Sheppard is available.”
Katelyn was at a loss, stuttering, “Harley…”
Hearing her calling, the man who had taken just two steps stopped, and Katelyn’s face lit up in joy, only to hear Harley’s cruel warning the next second. “We are not close. Please address me as Mr. Brandt next time.
Favesdropping, Cassidy couldn’t hold it in and burst into laughter.
Lenora shot her a glance, warning her not to be so bold. After all Harley wasn’t as easy to deal with as Katelyn, so it was better to just be a quiet onlooker.
Seeing Lenora’s look, Cassidy immediately put on a serious expression
Lenora reached out for the honey mustard sauce across the table when suddenly, a hand moved even faster than hers.

“It’s closer to me. Anthony showed no expression, withdrawing his hand after putting the honey mustard sauce in front of her as if he were only helping a stranger.
Seeing through his straightforwardness, Lenora smiled. Thank you.”
Meanwhile, Harley was passing by and happened to see this scene. His eyebrows furrowed slightly, but his footsteps did not slow down as he strode away with long steps.
However, he turned back with a cold face after a few steps, ordering. “A moment, please.”
His sudden, chilly voice interrupted, startling the three at the table.
Cassidy glanced at Lenora and then at Harley, ultimately shrinking back like a timid chick, too afraid to move.
Lenora had just peeled a shrimp, her hands sticky, and she picked up a wet wipe to clean them while retorting, “Mr. Brandt, is there something I can help with?”
She frowned slightly, looking puzzled, but made no move to stand up and go outside with him
“Yes, there is Harley’s expression darkened further.
Once upon a time, she would rush over as soon as she caught a glimpse of him without him even having to say a word. Now, he had to ask repeatedly.
After a final glance at Lenora, he turned and walked out of the restaurant.
This gap made him quite uncomfortable, even a bit irritable.
After he left, Cassidy’s courage grew again. She reached out to pull Lenora, who was about to stand up. “Don’t go. That would make you so lame.”
“Stop messing around. Lenora brushed off her hand.
ro with you?*
At that moment, Anthony, who hadn’t spoken much, suddenly stood up, suggesting, “Should I go
Looking at him in a puzzle, Cassidy was utterly shocked..
Lenora raised an eyebrow, half-smiling as she glanced at Anthony. “Was the honey mustard sauce just now on purpose?”
Anthony remained silent, but his cars turned slightly red,
“It’s okay, he won’t bite me.” Lenora understood it instantly.
With that, she followed Harley out.
Watching Lenora walk away, Cassidy suddenly realized, asking. “Mr. Dextor, you’re not falling for Lenora, are you?”
Being with Cassidy alone, Anthony returned to his usual aloofness. “I read the news
Telford Enterprise was a top-tier group in the country, and as the heir, Harley’s marriage naturally attracted widespread attention. His divorce led to Lenora being criticized for a long time-Anthony was well aware of this.
Cassidy couldn’t help but exclaim, “You really are a smart cookie
Anthony pursed his lips, asking. “Does Harley really not like Lenora?”
At the mention of Harley, the guy who mistreated Lenora, Cassidy had a lot to complain about. “Isn’t that obvious? Have you

ever seen any man who would marry the person he likes and then give her the cold shoulder for three years, not to mention allowing his witch mom to torment her every day? It’s bad enough that Harley’s mother mistreats Lenora, but even the random relatives in the Brandt family dare to point fingers at her. Who would be so bold without his tacit approval
Anthony frowned slightly, looking at Cassidy across from him, who was full of indignation and eventually swallowed the words he was about to say.
As a man, he could clearly feel Harley’s jealousy just now. But without seeing the full picture, he refrained from commenting.
As soon as Lenora walked out of the grand hall of Santana Delights, she saw Harley standing by the potted plant,
“What is it. Mr. Brandt?” She raised an eyebrow and walked over.
Even though they had been divorced for three months, Lenora couldn’t help but admit that Harley was still as handsome as ever. However, after seeing too many handsome men, she now looked at his face and found herself surprisingly calm, which never happened in the past.
“You don’t need to use these tricks to get my attention; they wont work on me.”
Just as Lenora regained her composure, she suddenly heard his disdainful and irritable warning.
She paused for a moment before laughing in anger. “Harley, are you in a wildest dream?”
Harley looked at the woman before him, who frowned slightly, her strikingly beautiful face now bearing a scornful, cold smile, her s**y eyes filled with suppressed anger.
He had never been so ridiculed before, his eyes narrowing and his gaze growing colder. “If you don’t want to get my attention, don’t play these childish tricks. Even if your friends find you a thousand or a million popular hotties, I won’t care a bit
Every word he uttered dripped with reproach and humiliation, and Lenora’s good temper was completely exhausted at that
moment.
“Harley,” she called out, her beautiful eyes narrowing slightly as she took a step closer to him suddenly.
