EX-husband Groveling to Me novel Chapter 149

Elijah didn't think that he would run into Alicia, Suny's best friend.

By Alicia did not seem to be alone.

After thinking about it, Elijah lifted his leg and followed her.

Austin was a bit miserable recently, and today Elijah had spent a lot of effort to ask her out.

But he arrived early, Austin had not yet arrived.

If he had happened to see Suny, maybe Austin could feel better.

Thinking this way, Elijah did not feel that his action of secretly following people was a bit impolite, but considered himself a nice person.

The barbecue restaurant was quite large, divided into two floors, the ground floor was mostly seats, while the second floor was private rooms with good secrecy.

Elijah followed Alicia up to the second floor and turned two corners before finally arriving. He stood at a distance and watched Alicia push the door into the box, hesitated for a moment and lifted his legs to follow her.

Alicia was walking fast all the way, and after ten years in the industry, she could be extremely sensitive to people following her.

As he had just come out of the bathroom, she felt someone following her. She had thought it was a fan, but she looked back several times and found no suspicious characters.

But just as she went upstairs, she felt that line of sight return, remembering that recently different people inside the circle had been stalked and blackmailed. Alicia feared she had run into it and walked as fast as she could on her way.

Having just sat down, Alicia took a large sip of the tea handed over by Suny.

Seeing that, Suny raised his eyebrows, "What, being chased by a dog?"

"There really is someone chasing me! Didn't I tell you before that Myra and Mollie were both stalked by someone who sent photos for blackmail some time ago? I suspect I ran into that pervert today."

Standing outside the door just after hesitating to knock on the door to enter, the pervert Elijah was speechless to hear that.

Was he that lewd?

Elijah felt that he needed to clear himself, and at this moment, he didn't dwell on whether he would be too intrusive, so he raised his hand and knocked directly on the door.

The door was a side-sliding wooden door, which had been left open when Alicia entered earlier, with a gap of nearly ten centimetres, which was why Elijah could see and hear Suny and Alicia talking inside.

When Alicia was in the middle of talking, there was a sudden knock on the door, she was startled and subconsciously shrank to Suny's side: "Suny, is that pervert came straight to the door? I'm so scared!"

Looking at Alicia, who could kill two cockroaches with her bare hands, wooing in her arms, Suny gave her a look without good grace and asked indifferently, "Who is there?"

"It's me, Suny, Miss Poole."

The wooden door was pushed open to reveal a familiar face.

It was Elijah.

Suny greeted, "Mr. Brooks."

Elijah entered without being invited: "I saw Miss Poole downstairs just now and thought that you should also be there, Suny, so I followed Miss Poole and came over, I didn't expect to scare you, Miss Poole."

With that, he took his seat directly opposite the two.

Alicia felt better since he was not a pervert, "I didn't know that Mr. Brooks actually had a fetish for stalking people."

"Don't get me wrong, I just happened to be over for dinner as well."

Elijah was thick-skinned, and the sarcasm in Alicia's words was as if he hadn't heard them.

After saying that, he looked at Suny, "This barbecue is good, it was just ran out of seats when I came, do you mind I joining you?"

As he said that, he had rung the service bell and soon the waiter waiting outside the corridor came in, "What can I do for you?"

"Please add two sets of cutlery."

After instructing, Elijah smiled at Suny, "I have another friend, do you mind?"

Alicia couldn't help but roll her eyes: "Mr. Brooks, why ask? You even poured your tea."

Elijah laughed out, "I'm friends with Suny."

He had said so, Suny could only say, "It's just a meal."

There was no need to quarrel.

Alicia skimmed the corners of her mouth and didn't continue to say anything because of Suny.

Suny inclined her head to look at her, smiled, poured her a cup of tea and gestured with her eyes to calm her down.

Alicia sipped her tea and suddenly remembered something: "Who is that friend of yours? Do we know him? It is Austin, isn’t it?"

Elijah, who had just finished sending out the room number, lifted his head to face Alicia and Suny both, grinning, "Miss Poole is really smart."

Alicia: "......” What the hell.

Suny gave a slight pause as she sipped her tea, looking at Elijah with a smirk, "You did it on purpose?"

Elijah's eyes averted as she looked at him, "Don't say that, it's all coincidence."

Alicia snorted coldly, "That's quite a coincidence!"

She could not imagine that Austin had a friend who was quite nice to him.

Suny said, "Okay, I'll remember that."

Elijah's heart thudded, looking at the light smile on Suny's face, he always felt chill at his back.

But now that the job was done and the positioning was sent, it would be too wimpy to retreat at this point.

In order to ease the awkwardness, Elijah changed the subject: "Miss Poole just finished killing?"

"You know quite a lot."

"I guess it."

Alicia snorted, "Then why don't you guess what I want to do now?"

Elijah glanced at the menu and moved it directly to Alicia: "You want to eat meat, this meal is on me."

The corners of Alicia's mouth twitched, this Elijah was not only thick-skinned, but also had a strong instinct for pretending to be foolish.

She raised her hand and simply closed the menu and pushed it back, "Wrong guess, I've been on a diet lately."

"How can you lose weight if you're not full? And a meal is not a big deal. Listen to me, you should eat a good meal right after you've finished the shooting! It won't hurt to eat this meal before you lose weight!"

Alicia, who could not resist the temptation of the roast meat, was even less determined, and she looked at Suny, "I think he has a point."

Suny smiled helplessly, "Okay, just this one meal."

Alicia instantly found happiness, and if it weren't for Elijah, a shameless man, she would have hugged Suny and spun her around in place a few times to express her excitement.

"Miss Poole, it's on me today."

Elijah tried to be nice, he always felt that Suny was trying to drive him out of the box.

Alicia took the menu and ordered the most expensive food.

Just after placing the second order, Suny's first order of roast meat had already served.

It was quite a lot.

Alicia instantly understood that Suny didn't really intend to let her eat the greens.

Well, a true BFF!

The meat had just been grilled and before the three of them had time to eat it, Austin pushed the door in.

Seeing Austin, Alicia felt that the meat in front of her didn't seem to smell so good anymore.

She subconsciously looked at Suny beside her, who was sitting there, unblinking and indifferent.

Awesome, that reaction was like a big female character at first glance!
