Beyond the Divorce novel Chapter 1021

My gaze met the dark eyes of a man seated at a table across from us.

The young man sitting there didn't shy away from our eye contact, and I had no intention of avoiding it either.

He looked handsome in a fresh way, with a square face and well-defined features. However, those deep eyes were like the bottom of a pond. They were dark and seemingly calm, but shrouded in mystery.

I studied his face for a moment, feeling a sense of deja vu. But I was sure I didn't know him.

Lauren called my name, and I quickly turned to her. She asked, "Do you want to go to the cafe here after dinner?"

I looked at Dominic and asked, "Mr. Dominic, would you like to take a stroll to the cafe later?"

"No, I'm not used to drinking tea. You guys go ahead. I'll head back to rest," he said, decisively declining my invitation.

I wasn't surprised at all. After all, he was a scholar, and such social events didn't interest him.

"How about Mr. Fred? Anything you'd like to discuss with me?" I suggested, looking at Fred.

"Let's walk back together, and then we can go to the cafe below the hotel," Fred proposed.

I thought it was a good idea. It would be convenient for everyone to return and rest.

I nodded. "Alright, let's walk back."

Then, I picked up my phone and messaged Arnold. "Do you have a picture of Denton?"

Then I glanced at the opposite table. The young man conversed with one of the elderly individuals, looking casual and genuinely cheerful.

My phone dinged, and it was Arnold responding promptly with a picture.

Eagerly, I opened it to find a bright and smiling young man. Indeed, it was the same guy from across the restaurant.

That explained why I felt a sense of familiarity. He resembled Martin, whom I had encountered before, with that distinct face of the Terrell family.

Arnold quickly followed up with a question mark.

I replied with just two words. "Chance encounter."

His call immediately came in. I signaled to the others, leaving for the balcony to take Arnold's call.
