Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) novel Chapter 97

Wendy glanced at Sally and said with a smile, "Miss Saletta, nice to meet you. I've heard that you are beautiful, so the reputation is well supported by fact."

Sally did not expect the woman to know her, since she had broken up with Scott long ago. However, she noticed the disdainful look in Wendy's eyes that flashed quickly just now. Although she was smiling, the smile was not sincere.

Perhaps only women could understand each other's implications. "Wendy, you are also very beautiful."

Martin was afraid that this conversation would end in a terrible way, so he teased Sally, "Just thank her. She's right. You're born beautiful."

"Well, I'm the most gorgeous woman in the world." After Sally finished speaking, she lowered her head and drank the tea.

Scott was ordering from the menu when he suddenly looked up and asked, "Sally, I ordered your favorite Roasted Wheat Bran. The menu is quite different now. What do you like to eat? Suit yourself."

Sally, who was holding a glass, paused. She was so familiar with this dish. Every time she came here with Scott, she must order this one.

By tradition, a man and woman who ate this wheat bran together would have a happy marriage.

She used to say to Scott that he would be a wonderful husband.

Now, it was a little harsh to hear the name of this dish again.

Sally put down the glass and said coolly, "Mr. Williams, my tastes have changed a lot now. I don't want to eat this salty and sweet dish anymore. You can have it, but thanks, I'm good."

Scott did not change his expression and continued, "It's okay."

Martin flipped through the menu and found a few spicy dishes. "That's all. Bring them all to her. She only likes spicy food now."

Wendy smiled and said, "You are so considerate to your girlfriend. You even remember what she likes to eat so clearly."

Her words killed two birds with one stone. Firstly, she hinted that Sally already had a boyfriend, and had moved on from Scott. The second was to mock. Scott still remembered what his ex liked to eat so clearly but didn't care about his current girlfriend.

When Scott introduced her just now, he only mentioned her name but did not explain the relationship between them. She was upset, but she did not dare to show it.

Sally wanted to clarify immediately. Looking at Wendy's malicious smile, Sally gave up, wondering what kind of drama she could make.

Martin continued happily, "Sometimes she doesn't know what she likes. I know her better than she does."

Wendy looked envious. "You two are so sweet."

Sally gave Martin a stinky eye.

Soon, the table was full.

Martin ate a lot this time.

Sally had a good appetite and ate a lot too. She didn't care about those two annoying people across from her but only focused on eating.

After finishing the feast, Sally stood up and said, "Thank you for treating us lunch, Mr. Sander. Take your time. I'm going home. Have a good day."

At this moment, both gentlemen stood up and said in unison, "I'll take you home."

They didn't seem to take Wendy seriously.

Wendy stood up as well. "Since we don't have many chances to meet again, let's drive her back after you finish your meal, Scott."

Martin whispered in her ear, "Stay with me for a while longer. I'll take you to the airport to meet Lambert later."

Sally didn't plan to go home. She just wanted to find an excuse to leave because the drama here was too boring, but if Martin was willing to accompany her to the airport, she could stay here for a while longer.

Sally called Lambert to ask where he was. She didn't expect his phone to be off. He was probably on the plane.

Wendy looked at Sally impatiently and said, "If you feel a little bored, I can accompany you to the rest area outside. Men are always slow with alcohol around."

It seemed that she was reasonable and sensible. Men probably preferred this kind of beautiful and obedient woman.

Sally didn't want to let her down, so she walked out of the private room.

The two had just sat in the lounge outside as Wendy smiled brightly and asked. "Sally, I'm getting engaged to Scott tomorrow. I would like to invite you to our engagement party."

So that was her purpose.

It was when Sally and Scott were about to get engaged that she found out that Scott had cheated on her, so she cut all her ties with Scott at that moment, and it almost caused a fight between the Saletta Family and the Sander Family.

Sally's father was so angry that he swore he would find his daughter a better man than Scott, so her father kept urging her to blind dates.

Sally had moved on long ago. The moment she knew that Scott cheated on her, they were done. She knew Scott would no longer be part of the rest of her life and didn't bother to waste time on him.

However, her father loved her so much that he was angry about this. In order not to affect her father's mood, she fled to Birmingham.

If she was not with her father, she thought her family would not worry about her. And it would be better for her to live in another city without Scott.

However, there was a stupid woman who insisted on showing off in front of her.

Sally also smiled and said, "May you live a long and happy life together."

"Why are you back now after a long time leaving, Sally?"

'Is she thinking that I return here at this time to make up with Scott on purpose? I'm not that insane, okay?'

Sally said deliberately, "I always felt that there was something unfinished in Lambola City, so I came back."

The smile on Wendy's face suddenly disappeared and she asked seriously, "Sally, you haven't moved on from Scott yet, right?"

"Are you afraid?"

"Not at all. Scott is very good to me. I believe him."

'What a lie.'

Sally felt lucky. It seemed that Scott had never given any woman a sense of reliability.

She had the same feeling before, but she was young at that time. She was always trying to convince herself that she was special to Scott.

However, old habits died hard.

She couldn't stand infidelity. She often admonished herself with this sentence.

She looked at the beautiful woman in front of her and felt bored. Sally got up and walked to the private room.

Sally opened the door and had no intention of going in. She stood at the door and asked, "Mr. Deerman, are you done? It's time to go."

Martin said, "Scott, see you next time."

Scott stood up and shook hands with Martin, wanting to come out to send them off.

At this time, Wendy came over. "I just came back from the bathroom. Are you leaving so soon?"

Sally didn't want to waste her time on them and walked forward without looking back.

Martin said goodbye and then followed Sally.
