EX-husband Groveling to Me novel Chapter 19

Half an hour later, the car was parked in the Bishounen.

Suny booked a seat before she left home and was taken to the window seat directly after she signed in.

Only before the three of them could sit down, they saw Austin and Jennifer sitting at the table behind them from afar.

The events of a month ago still seemed to be fresh in her mind, and when she thought of that day when Jennifer had deliberately brought the old demon woman to trouble Suny, Alicia was ready to roll up her sleeves and prepare to start a new round of scolding.

But without waiting for her to say anything, Suny raised her hand and stopped her, "Don't you want to eat?"

The charming eyes just swept her lightly for a moment, Alicia opened her mouth, but finally sat down.

Forget it, pretend that she didn't see the pair of bitches!

But when she saw the menu, Alicia forgot who was sitting behind her and looked at Suny with resignation, "Suny, you wouldn't really be so cruel as to let me eat boiled bok choy, would you?"

Suny took a sip of hot tea, "Order what you want, but don't tell Joan that it's on me."

"Don't worry, I won't betray you!"

Suny didn't bother with her and handed the menu to Erik across the table, "Order whatever you like."

Alicia could chat with anyone, while Erik was cold and talked little, but Suny was there, Alicia kept talking about a lot of things she encountered shooting commercials, the atmosphere was very cordial.

But compared to their table, Austin's and Jennifer's side was very stiff and cold.

"Austin?"

From the time she sat down until now, Austin had hardly ever given Jennifer a good look, and when she saw Suny and the others just now, she thought she had won.

But Austin only looked at her coldly for a moment, his face expressionless, but his black eyes clearly showed some impatience: "Where is Mr. Dawson?"

Jennifer's face stiffened, "My father got occupied, but he will be here soon."

Austin got up, "Then we'll talk about it when Mr. Dawson is free."

Jennifer was overwhelmed, "Austin-"

Austin who had just taken two steps stopped, and Jennifer was delighted, but he warned her mercilessly the next second: "We don't know each other well, next time please call me Mr. Johnson."

"Pfft-"

Alicia didn't hold it in for a moment and laughed straight out.

Suny glanced at her, warning her not to be so arrogant, Austin was not as easy to be messed with as Jennifer.

Alicia was given a look by Suny and immediately withdrew her smile and sat there with a straight face.

Suny picked up her chopsticks and was just about to raise her hand to pick up the shrimp not far away, but there was a pair of chopsticks that moved even faster than she did.

She was stunned for a rare moment and looked up at Erik across the table, somewhat puzzled.

"I will do it."

Erik's face did not have any different colour, after releasing his chopsticks of shrimp, his hand was withdrawn, as if he was really just simply giving a shrimp for Suny.

Suny smiled, "Thank you."

Austin, who was leaving and passing by, happened to see this scene, he frowned slightly, but the pace on his feet did not stop for half a second.

But after a few steps, he turned back with a cold face.

"Come out with me."

Suddenly a cold male voice interjected. The three people at the table were all visibly startled.

Alicia glanced at Suny and then at Austin, but in the end she was too abashed to move.

Suny had just peeled the shrimp and her hands were sticky. She took a wet tissue aside and wiped her hands while asking Austin, "Mr. Johnson, anything wrong?"

There was confusion in the way she frowned slightly and wiped her hands, but had no intention of getting up to talk to him outside.

Austin's face sank: "Yes."

The person who used to come running to him on her own accord when she saw him from afar without him having to ask, now actually he had to ask her to make willing to go out with him.

With a final glance at Suny, Austin turned around and walked out of the restaurant.

The change was uncomfortable and even annoying for him.

Seeing that he had left, Alicia became bold again and reached out to pull Suny who was planning to get up, "Don't go, just go when he asks you to, how humiliating would that be for you?"

Suny shook her hand away, "Stop it."

At this time, Erik, who hadn't said much, suddenly stood up, "Do you want me to go with me you?"

"???"

Alicia looked at Erik, who stood up, with a shocked expression.

Suny glanced at Erik with a smirk: "The shrimp just now was intentional?"

Erik didn't say anything, but his ears were red.

Suny understood, "No, it's not like he can eat me."

Having said that, Suny followed Austin's direction and went out.

Only after watching Suny walk away did Alicia realize afterwards, "Erik, you don't have a crush on Suny, do you?"

To Alicia, Erik was back to being indifferent: "I did watch the news."

KLOC was one of the best company in the country, Austin was the heir, so his marriage was also naturally in the limelight. Because of the divorce, Suny had been scolded for many times, Erik was naturally clear about it.

Alicia tsked, "You're really smart!"

Erik pursed his lips, "Does Austin really not like Suny?"

When mentioning Austin, Alicia had a bunch of words to spit out: "Aren't you talking nonsense? Have you ever seen a man who would marry the person he likes for three years without taking care of her, and then let the bad old lady bully her day after day? Austin's mother bullied Suny, and even those maids the Johnson family dare to tell Suny what to do, who would have the audacity to do that except for Austin's tacit approval?"

Erik frowned slightly, looking at Alicia who was righteously indignant across the table, but finally swallowed his words back.

He was a man and had just clearly felt Austin's acidity.

Of course, not knowing the full picture, he would not comment on it.

As Suny had just walked out of the Bishounen hall, she saw Austin standing next to that potted plant.

She walked over, "What's the matter, Mr. Johnson?"

Although it had been more than three months since the divorce, Suny had to admit that Austin's face, as always, was handsome.

But having seen too many handsome men, she now looked at this face of his and found herself surprised that her heart was as still as water.

Rare.

"You don't need to use these tricks to get my attention, it's useless to me."

Suny had just returned to her senses and she suddenly heard him warn her in a disgusted and annoyed manner.

She was stunned for a moment and laughed out, "Austin, are you still living in a dream?"

Austin looked at the woman in front of him, she was frowning slightly, that excessively beautiful face now floating with a sneer, looking at him with anger pressed inside her charming eyes.

He had never been so sarcastic before, his eyes grew colder: "Since you are not trying to get my attention, don't play such childish tricks, even if your friend finds you a thousand or ten thousand popular male celebrities to take turns to accompany you on the hot search, I won't care half a bit."

Every word he said was an accusation and insult, and all of Suny's good temper was used up in this instant: "Austin."

She opened her mouth to call out to him, her pretty charming eyes narrowing slightly as she took a sudden step towards him.
