One Meet By Chance novel Chapter 389

Harris was a little regretful for what he had just said, which made Albert get a new reason to laugh at him again. But this time, he really didn't want to quarrel with him. He just thought something sad in his heart. How many years would they live? They didn't have much time to be together. It was not easy for them to live together for such a long time. When they suddenly said that they would leave, Harris really felt empty and sad in his heart.

"I mean, you have been living in my house and giving nothing in return to me, and now you want to leave?"

Although Harris didn't want Albert and Gavin to leave, he didn't show kindness to them in words.

"What? What else do you want me to do? You old bastard, what do you want to do to me?"

Albert exaggeratedly moved his chair backwards, as if he was afraid that Harris was going to molest him. Harris's face turned purple with embarrassment.

"There is a guest here."

Harris regretted as soon as he said this. As he expect, Albert caught this chance again and did not decide to let him go so easily.

"Well, it's lucky that there's a guest here. Otherwise, what else do you want to do to me in private? Ouch, Gavin, I think we two should go back to our room to pack up after breakfast and ask the driver to pick us up. Otherwise, we will be eaten up by Harris."

"Yes, I think so too."

Harris couldn't help laughing when he saw the two old friends making fun of him. Anyway, he didn't want them to leave. Since they wanted to leave, he would like to go with them.

"Okay, I'll ask the servants to help me pack up later. Enrique, your Uncle Albert and Uncle Gavin have been living in our house and giving no return to us for a long time. Now they are going to run away, so I decide to go with them and live in the Gu Family for a period of time. I'll get all the money back."

Enrique nodded, rubbed his chin and smiled gently.

"Dad, you've got a point there. We can't afford to lose out on this deal."

Albert and Gavin didn't object. Since Harris wanted to go with them, it was good. They also didn't want to leave this old friend alone in the Shen Family. It was good to be together.

"Enrique, actually, I'm leaving this time because I want to go home first. After all, Abby was a member of the Gu Family. I can't let only your Shen Family be busy, but we do nothing, right? I have to go back and prepare the dowry. And Abby, it's almost time for her to go back Gu Family. You two can have a good talk tonight and then you guys can't meet each other in the next month. As for the child, just arrange them as we discussed before. Is it ok for you?"

"Okay, I have no problem. I will listen to you. Father."

This was exactly the point what Albert was satisfied with Enrique. He nodded and stood up.

"Why are you two still sitting there? If you are full, we should take a walk in the park. Tomorrow, we won't see those ladies dancing in the park again. We need to cherish the present moment."

"Albert, how rude you are!"

Harris also stood up with a smile. He said that Albert was vulgar, but he didn't refuse to go out. He was still happy to go out to have fun in his old age. After the three elders left, there were only Enrique and Shirley left at the table, who were having breakfast quietly.

"Mr. Harris and Teresa's father and uncle really have a good relationship with each other."

Shirley lowered her head, bit the fork, and looked up at Enrique with her big eyes blinking.

"Hurry up. I'll give you a drive when you're done."

Shirley looked at Enrique in a daze. He was so gentle just now and smiled at her, but she completely ignored the disgust in his eyes when he lowered his head. In fact, he hated women other than Teresa to pretend to be cute in front of him. He didn't think Shirley was cute, but felt sick instead.

After washing her face and brushing her teeth, Teresa opened the door and went downstairs. She saw that Shirley was biting the fork and staring at Enrique, who put the tableware aside elegantly and turned around to ask Shirley with a smile.

"Are you full?"

"Yes, I'm full."

"Let's go."

Teresa stood there, looking indifferently at the direction of the door. Behind Enrique, there was Shirley, who looked like a butterfly. With a sneer at the corners of her mouth, Teresa asked herself in her heart, 'Teresa, do you still think that Shirley is the same as before? In this complex society, how can anyone remain innocent and simple all the time?

"Teresa, are you okay?"

Not knowing when Fiona was standing next to Teresa, she said to her worriedly. Teresa turned around with a smile.

"Of course I am OK."

Without saying anything more, Fiona pulled Teresa's hand.

"Teresa, I will always be with you."

"Fiona, I'm with you too. Let's go shopping today, okay?"

Fiona nodded and thought, 'How long has it been since I went shopping and played with Teresa?' After breakfast, the two of them got in the private car of the Shen Family and drove towards the downtown. As soon as they left, Ares immediately drove to catch up with them. It was so boring to stay at home alone. He might as well go out to play with them.

There was a coffee shop in the center of the city. It was said to be a coffee shop, but in fact, it also sold other drinks. Fiona liked coffee without sugar, and she said it was the taste of life. Teresa ordered a cup of coffee for her, and she ordered a cup of bubble tea. Since she studied abroad, she had been particularly fond of bubble tea. Fortunately, bubble tea in the overseas Chinese region was also very popular. So, she could often take an order when she wanted to drink.

...

With a sip of coffee, Fiona looked much better than before. If it weren't for the words that Enrique had said to her that day, Teresa might have thought that Fiona had walked out of the darkness. Teresa lowered her head and took a sip of bubble tea with a straw. She liked to poke black pearls at the bottom of the cup with a straw. Fiona always said that she looked like a child hadn't been growing up.

"Teresa, you haven't changed at all, just like when you were a student."

There were stars in Fiona's eyes, and Teresa also smiled.

"You haven't changed, either. You still like coffee without sugar."

Then, Fiona lowered her eyes and didn't say anything. Teresa knew that she had said something wrong. She must have reminded Fiona of that unbearable period of time that she didn't want to recall. These short months seemed to have been a long and painful time.

Both Fiona and Teresa stopped talking. The weather was good today. The sun was shining through the big glass window, just slanting on the transparent vase on their table. Teresa was stirring the pearls in the cup. Fiona seemed to be asleep, with her eyes down.

Suddenly, out of the glass window of the coffee shop, a face that was squeezed out of shape came into view. Teresa couldn't help but scream, which also frightened Fiona.

However, the man sticking to the window suddenly stretched out his hand and waved at them.
