Playing hard to get?
How childish!
Who would have thought Mandel Thompson, a man in his thirties, would still engage in such antics.
Jean Beckman tossed her head back to arrange her long hair and, without so much as a glance at Mandel Thompson, walked to her usual spot and began to order.
On the other side.
After finishing dessert with Isla Astir, Mandel Thompson had to go back to work.
However, before that, he was going to drive Isla back to school.
Watching the two of them leave hand in hand, Jean smirked. Just as she suspected, Mandel only wanted to make an appearance in front of her. The moment he confirmed she had seen them together, he couldn't wait to send Isla away.
After all, when you spend time with someone you don't love, it's only a matter of time before you slip up.
Isla's school was nearby.
It only took ten minutes to get there.
Isla got out of the car as she opened the door.
"Miss Astir, wait a second," Mandel suddenly spoke up.
"What is it?"
