Chapter 1319
The next day, when Shelly came to Hanna’s studio, she couldn’t help but complain again, “How could you be so reckless? You must have been fooled by him!”
After Shelly learned what happened in the diner from Hanna, Shelly thought Hanna had been fooled.
“He doesn’t look like a bad guy,” Hanna whispered.
“Could he tell you that he was a bad guy? If he had been serious, at least he would have told you his number. You don’t even know how to contact him now. How will you date with him?” Shelly said.
Hanna couldn’t make a retort.
Was Calvin really just making fun of Hanna? But somehow, when Hanna thought of Calvin’s tone and eyes at that time, she felt he should be serious.
But she didn’t know his number. Could she see him again in the future?
“By the way, why did you agree to that man’s request?” Shelly asked.
“Probably… Because he has a beautiful face.” Hanna was a little guilty. She had another reason.
Calvin looked desperate. Hanna felt that if she didn’t help him, he would fall into the abyss.
Hanna used to be in the same situation. At that time, she found that feelings were just a game in the eyes of others. She still remembered it felt to be hopeless.
If Hanna hadn’t been helped by Shelly at that time, maybe Hanna woul have been living a different life now.
“If that man was just making fun of me, it means that he doesn’t have to find a girlfriend to solve his problem. That should be good,” Hanna breathed a sigh of relief and said.
“Don’t be so naïve. If he is really so good-looking, will he lack a girlfriend? You’re so easy to fool. That asshole Lorin…” Suddenly, Shelly stopped talking and showed an apologetic expression. “I’m sorry, I…”
“What are you apologizing for? You’re right. Lorin is indeed an asshole.”
Hanna pretended to be fine and smiled. Then she raised her hands and hugged Shelly, saying, “Shelly, thank you for helping me at that time. You saved me from despair.”
What are you talking about? Well, you should accompany me on the blind date tonight. Maybe the friend of my date is also a nice person!” Shelly said with a smile.
In the evening, Shelly took Hanna to the restaurant where she and her date would meet. But when they arrived at the table, Hanna’s expression suddenly changed.
There were already two men sitting on one side of the table. One of them, wearing a white shirt, had a handsome face. He used to be the cutest guy in many girls’ eyes!
It was Lorin!
Hanna didn’t expect to meet Lorin here. Seeing Lorin, Shelly was also dumbfounded. She blurted out, “Lorin? Why are you here?”
“Well, do you know each other?” Kolton Mcbride, Shelly’s blind date asked with surprise.
“Yeah, we do. We’re from the same university but in different departments,” Lorin answered.
“What a coincidence. Come on, have a seat. Please order whatever you want,” Kolton said to Shelly and Hanna enthusiastically.
Hanna knew that Shelly had a good impression of Kolton. They had been chatting online for almost two weeks, and it was the first time t had met each other.
“Hanna, why don’t we…” Shelly wanted to leave this blind date party with Hanna.
After all, Shelly knew how Lorin hurt Hanna before. If Hanna had to have dinner with Lorin, it would hurt Hanna again.
But before Shelly could finish her words, Hanna said, “Shelly, let’s take a seat.”
“But…”
Hanna gave Shelly a comforting look and quietly pinched her hand to indicate to Shelly that she was fine. Then Hanna took Shelly’s hand to sit down.
After ordering the meal, Shelly took Hanna to leave the table under the excuse of going to the bathroom.
“Hanna, you don’t have to worry about me. I didn’t know that Kolton and Lorin were friends. If I had known…”
“You wouldn’t have asked me to come with you, right? It doesn’t matter. Lorin hurt me, but I can’t avoid him forever. If I can’t face him now, it means that I still care about the past. Shelly, I don’t want to escape this time. Besides, I don’t have to escape just because of Lorin, do I?” Hanna said.
Shelly suddenly felt that Hanna was stronger than she thought. Hanna’s sincere eyes told Shelly that Hanna had really gotten over Lorin.
“Yeah, he doesn’t deserve it,” Shelly said and smiled.
At the same time, Kolton looked at Lorin and said hesitantly, “Mr. Esther, did you know that they would come here today?”
Kolton didn’t know why he had such a feeling.
Lorin was not Kolton’s friend, but a CEO of his company. It was said that Lorin would join the board of directors of the head office in the future. He just came to the branch to prepare for his future promotion.
Accidentally, Lorin saw Shelly’s photo on Kolton’s phone and chatted with him for a while. After that, Lorin asked Kolton to bring him to the blind date party in the name of bringing a friend.
At that time, Kolton was confused. But he didn’t dare to refuse Kolton because of Kolton’s identity.
What happened just now made Kolton realize that Lorin had long guessed that Shelly would be accompanied by Hanna. It seemed that everything was in Lorin’s expectation.
Lorin smiled faintly and said, “Anyway, I’m your friend now. Today, I’m only here to accompany you to a blind date party, right?”
When Lorin said this, he glanced in the direction of the bathroom.
After so many years, Lorin finally saw Hanna again. He had thought she would turn around and leave without saying a word after seeing him, but as a result, she sat down calmly and looked at him with no more affection.
During dinner, although Kolton tried to warm up the atmosphere, it was strange.
“I’ve heard Shelly talk about you. She said that you are a comic artist. I am wondering what kind of comic you paint. I will read your work as soon as possible,” Kolton said.
“It’s some girl romantic cartoons. You can ask Shelly about the details. She is my editor, and she knows it best. But I guess you may not like this kind of comic,” Hanna said with a smile.
