Forced Into Marriage: My Husband’s Too Mean novel Chapter 650

"Then I'll pick the restaurant. Have you ever had Atlantic City’s specialties?" Lindsey asked after some thought.

Arthur shook his head, then asked, "Is it delicious?"

Lindsey nodded. It was something she had grown up eating, so she was excited. "Then would you like to try it?"

"I’d love to," Arthur said with an affirmative tone and a smile on his face as he was affected by the excitement in her eyes.

Lindsey thought about it as she rubbed her palms together and thought of a good place. She was so immersed in her own world that she did not notice Arthur glancing at her from time to time through the rearview mirror with a softness in his eyes.

She never would have thought that Arthur was just trying to take this opportunity to find out what Lindsey liked to eat.

"I know a private restaurant at Jicama Drive. You can just key it into the navigation system."

When Arthur heard this, he blinked and said with some difficulty, "Sorry, I'm not great at using this navigation system."

Arthur actually did not know how to use the navigation system because he never had to, since his driver would send him everywhere he went. This was the first time he drove himself in Atlantic City.

Lindsey was stunned for a little while and laughed. She laughed even harder when she saw Arthur’s ears turn a suspicious red when he said that. Luckily, she kept herself from laughing too hard and sat upright. "Then I’ll give you the directions and you can listen to my command?"

Of course, Arthur had no problem with that.

Lindsey then gave him the directions to the restaurant. Arthur had very good hearing and did not need Lindsey to repeat herself.

She was not distracted, but Arthur could not help but wish that the journey was longer.

Unfortunately, even the longest road would come to an end somehow. They finally got to the entrance of a private restaurant hidden in a small alley. Lindsey proudly waved her hand. "This is the place!"

Arthur looked at the rustic wooden door in front of him with a hidden surprise in his eyes, then made a gesture for Lindsey to go first before he walked in after her.

Usually, this place required a reservation beforehand. Lindsey used Shaun's name and managed to get them a table. Arthur and Lindsey sat down in a small private room that was separated by a divider.

Looking at the familiar furnishings and decor, Lindsey suddenly recalled that the last time she came here was with Allie Wilford. She then wondered how Allie was doing now.

As she was lost in thought, Arthur suddenly asked, "Why is there no menu?"

Lindsey snapped back to her senses and remembered that she had forgotten to introduce Arthur to the dining style here. She said softly, "There’s no menu here. What we eat today depends on what ingredients the kitchen has today, so...we wait."

At the end of the sentence, Lindsey laughed. Arthur looked at her smile and his eyebrows relaxed.

However, Lindsey still caught that slight displeasure in his eyes and thought that Arthur did not like this dining style. She then patiently explained, "You can rest assured that the dishes over here are absolutely delicious and I guarantee that you’ll be satisfied!"

Arthur also laughed and his tone remained unchanged. "Looking forward to it."

However, Zayn, who usually could not stand seeing the two of them in the same space in the past, just walked past them without looking at them, as if they were strangers to him.

When Zayn walked past her, Lindsey clenched her fingers slightly.

She still remembered that when she was here with Allie back then, she ran into Zayn. At that time, she hastily avoided him because back then, her hatred for Zayn was at its peak.

The same scenario happened again in the same location, but this time, Zayn did not even glance towards her.

Lindsey did not know what she was feeling right now. They had walked through the orphanage together yesterday, yet today, they were like strangers when they bumped into each other.

She felt that if Zayn had taken the initiative to greet her, she would have asked him if he was here for dinner too.

However, Zayn did not intend to let her be so frank with him.

‘It doesn't matter,’ Lindsey thought to herself. ‘This is how we’re supposed to be, and what am I even expecting?’

After that group of people walked into a private room, Lindsey said to Arthur, who was behind her, "Let's go." She looked normal enough, but if her fingers were not clenched, that would have been better.

Lindsey wondered why Zayn chose to turn a blind eye when they ran into each other. It was probably because he was in a bad mood since Lindsey sent his fiancee to the police station today.

However, when Lindsey thought of this, she suddenly realized that if Ann was still at the police station, why was Zayn still in the mood to entertain guests?
