Chapter 993 What a Coincidence

“I’m almost done,” Janie said. “The apartment isn’t very big to begin with. There’s no need to call a cleaning service.”

“Well, I’ll come over and see you then,” Emmeline said. “You haven’t had lunch yet, right? I’ll help you cook.”

“I’ve already eaten,” Janie glanced at the thermal flask behind her.

Originally, she had prepared lunch for Benjamin, but she had brought it over in a fit of anger.

Besides, since that woman who regarded him as her hero wanted to treat him to lunch, there was no need for the food she made anymore, so she ate it herself.

“Alright then,” Emmeline said. “Wait for me, I’ll be there in half an hour.”

Janie couldn’t refuse her, so she agreed.

Emmeline gave a few instructions to Sam and Doris, grabbed two cups of coffee and packed some snacks, then rode off on her motorcycle.

By the time she got to Janie’s apartment, the latter was still in the middle of cleaning.

However, she was wrapping things up.

Emmeline lent a hand, and the two of them finished the work in a little over an hour. They then sat on the sofa and drank coffee.

Janie’s complexion didn’t look too good, her eyes lacking luster.novelxo.com fast update

Emmeline tilted her head and asked, “Janie, did you have a fight with Benjamin?”

Janie paused for a moment, before taking a sip of coffee and smiling lightly, “No.”

“But you left so suddenly,” Emmeline said. “Even if you felt it was inappropriate, you wouldn’t have moved out so abruptly. I never heard you mention it before.”

“Emma,” Janie asked, “What do you think of my relationship with Benjamin?”

Emmeline was taken aback, not knowing what to say as she held her coffee cup.

Indeed, it was difficult to answer Janie’s question.

“Right?” Janie gave a bitter smile. “It’s awkward between us. Ever since the beginning, Benjamin never acknowledged us as boyfriend and girlfriend. So, how else do you expect me to continue staying under the same roof with him?”

“Ben probably does consider you his girlfriend,” Emmeline held Janie’s hand. “He just didn’t make it clear to you.”

“That’s because he himself isn’t sure,” Janie said. “He said before that he wanted me to give him a chance, and I agreed. But afterwards, he still treated me coldly. I don’t know what he’s thinking.”

“Ben just isn’t the type to warm up to people so quickly,” Emmeline said. “You have to give him time.”

Emmeline didn’t say anything, so Janie spoke first, “Erin, what a coincidence to run into you here.”

“I live in this neighborhood,” Erin glanced at Edmond beside her. “Mr. Edmond helped me rent a place here.”

“Ms. Emmeline!” Edmond also greeted Emmeline, but he was not familiar with Janie, so he simply nodded politely.

Both Emmeline and Janie smiled lightly in response. Emmeline replied, “Mr. Edmond.”

“What a small world,” Edmond said. “I didn’t expect to encounter Ms. Emmeline at the neighborhood supermarket.”

“I’m visiting my friend Janie’s place,” Emmeline smiled.

“So Ms. Janie also lives here,” Erin said, “What a coincidence.”

“My apartment is upstairs,” Janie smiled lightly. “You’re welcome to visit whenever you’re free.”

“We’ll definitely visit some other time,” Erin smiled. “We won’t disturb you today.”

Just as they were about to pass by each other, Edmond suddenly stopped and said, “Ms. Emmeline.”

After a pause, Emmeline stopped and turned back, asking, “Do you need something, Mr. Edmond?”
