Chapter 1489
Ida retracted her gaze, taking a sip of the red wine in her hand. “He’s not cute anymore.”
Chase chuckled. “You used to say he was too childish. Now you’re saying he’s not cute? What exactly are you
looking for, Ida?”
Ida set her wine glass down. “I don’t want anything. I’m going to the restroom.”
She then got up, adjusting her thin-framed glasses before, heading towards the restroom.
The restroom at this banquet hall had a unisex sink area. After using the restroom, Ida saw a man washing his
hands.
From his reflection in the mirror, she recognized that it was Bryan.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe did not halt but continued to the sink as if everything were normal, without a hint of surprise on her face.
Bryan caught her reflection in the mirror. “Long time no see, Ida!”
She replied while washing her hands. “Indeed, it’s been a while.”
Bryan gave her a polite smile. “Ida, you seem to have changed quite a bit.”
Ida raised an eyebrow. “Oh? How so?”
Bryan smiled. “Your skin doesn’t look as good, and you seem to have aged. You’re not as radiant as you were three
years ago.”
Ida was speechless.
Well, wasn’t he a charmér?
Her silence made Bryan frown. “I was just joking, Ida. You’re not really mad, are you?”
Ida, having washed her hands, turned off the faucet. She sounded nonchalant. “No, you’re right. To you, I must
seem old!”
She didn’t linger on Bryan and instead turned to grab a paper towel to dry her hands.
Suddenly, a pair of strong hands grabbed her shoulders, spinning her back around.
Startled, Ida looked at Bryan, who had turned her around, waiting for an explanation.
Bryan, holding her by the shoulders, looked down at her. “Upon closer inspection, you’re not that old. You have
good genes, so a few signs of aging only add to your charm.”
As he spoke, he moved closer.

She wasn’t resisting his advances and didn’t feel like she’d be at a disadvantage, so she slowly closed her eyes.
But instead of what she expected, she heard a chuckle.
Bryan laughed lightly. “Ida, why did you close your eyes? Did you think I was going to kiss you?”
Ida’s eyes snapped open, and in the eyes of the once sincere and passionate young man, she saw mockery and
playfulness.
Ah! She’d been played.
She didn’t respond, only adjusting her glasses.
Bryan added. “Sorry to disappoint you. I have a girlfriend now, and I wouldn’t kiss another woman. I’m very
committed, unlike you, who seems to change partners frequently.”
His words stung.
Ida responded nonchalantly. “Indeed, you’re a good man. I can’t compare.”
After seeing her unbothered reaction, Bryan reached out his hand.
