Like A Live Wire

Reyona raised her head just in time to see Rouarke parking his car in front of the bistro.

She turned to face the woman.

“What did you just call me?”

The woman seemed a bit surprised that Reyona understood what she said.

Still, she was not remorseful.

Instead, she raised her nose in the air and said, “Get out of my restaurant, bad woman.”

“CEO Lanoth, is everything fine?” Rouarke asked as he entered the restaurant and heard the last statement from the woman.

“Oh, you are here, Rouarke,” Reyona said cheerily as she turned to him. “Good. Just in time. You see, I invited you here for a different reason before, but I just discovered something better.”

Better?

Curiousity could be seen on the faces of the people around as they wondered how Reyona could still be chirpy despite what just happened.

Even the heavy-set woman was looking from Rouarke to Reyona.
