Chapter 249 Divorce Would Come Soon
Orlando had just gotten into the car when Angie called.
"Orlando, I've been waiting for twenty minutes. Where are you?"
Orlando glanced at his watch. "The meeting just ended. I'll be there in twenty minutes."
"You're still so devoted to work. How can you bear to leave me standing here like this?"
"Find a place to sit down."
Angie said nothing, but her eyes instantly welled up with tears.
"Orlando, you've changed so much. You weren't like this before."
Orlando rubbed his temple with his hand and spoke flatly, "I'm coming right away. The restaurant has already been reserved."
Only then did Angie's expression improve slightly. "Okay, I'll wait for you."
After hanging up the phone, Orlando sat in his seat and stared into space.
In the front seat, Zane glanced at him through the rearview mirror but remained silent, gripping the steering wheel.
Twenty minutes later, the car stopped at the airport.
Angie had already come out and immediately spotted Orlando's car. Her eyes lit up, and she hurriedly ran over, opening the car door.
"Orlando!"
She called out in a timid voice and embraced him tightly. "I missed you so much."
Orlando stiffened and didn't move.
After she hugged him for a while, Angie's lips curved into a smile. "Let's go to eat. Zane, drive a bit faster. I'm hungry."
She let go of him and sat down beside him.
Orlando reached out and placed her suitcase by his feet.
She only brought a tiny suitcase that didn't need to be put in the trunk.
When Angie saw him do this, she felt delighted.
Orlando's appearance was undoubtedly outstanding, and at this moment, his accommodating posture towards the woman also showcased his elegance and grace.
Angie's face blushed slightly as her lips curled into a sweet smile.
"I'm sorry for saying earlier that you've changed. You haven't changed at all, Orlando. You're still so good to me."
Orlando didn't respond. He just put her suitcase away and leaned back in his seat.
"How have you been living abroad?"
"How dare you ask me about that? You didn't even call me. If I hadn't contacted you first, would you never have contacted me again?"
Angie felt aggrieved as she spoke.
She had grown up being pampered by the Bender family and knew how to read people's expressions. She was gentle and discreet, but in front of Orlando, she became delicate and wished to be doted on and coaxed by him.
Angie's lips curved even more when she saw the restaurant's name.
It was her favorite restaurant.
"Oh, Orlando, you still remember what I like to eat."
The car stopped at the restaurant entrance, and a waiter wearing white gloves came over to open the door.
Angie smiled politely at him, but when she saw Orlando getting out of the car, she couldn't help but speak in a coy tone.
"By the way, will we meet your wife after we finish eating?"
She had just returned but wanted to assert dominance over that woman.
Orlando's face turned cold upon hearing this, "Why should we see her?"
Seeing his reluctance to mention that woman, Angie couldn't help but feel triumphant.
It seemed that woman was indeed worthless in Orlando's eyes.
"I just want to go and see what kind of woman can capture the attention of Rex."
"It's only because she once saved Rex's life."
Because of this, Rex saw that woman through a filter.
Upon hearing his words, Angie couldn't help but grab onto his arm. "So, you don't like her at all?"
"No," Orlando confirmed.
Angie was delighted with this response. She had been worried while she was abroad, and therefore, she decided to come back early. Otherwise, she would have continued her cold war with Orlando. As the doors to the restaurant opened, Angie collided with another person.
Orlando also looked over and noticed Clark.
Clark held a set of keys in his hand and raised his eyebrows with a smile when he saw them. "Ms. Bender is back!"
Angie regained her composure and gently tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. "Mr. McKay, long time no see."
Clark was a playboy, which was not a secret in Chatville's circle.
He glanced at Orlando and then turned to Angie, his mouth curled up with a hint of meaning. "Congratulations to Mr. Fletcher for getting what he wanted. The person he's been waiting for has finally come back. So, does this mean he'll divorce his current wife soon?"
Orlando's expression grew colder as he focused his sharp gaze on Clark.
But because of Clark's words, Angie looked up at Orlando expectantly.
Realizing that Orlando wouldn't speak about this issue, she quickly made excuses. "That woman was chosen for Orlando by Rex. So, it will probably take some time for Orlando to get rid of her. Mr. McKay, why are you so interested in other people's private matters?"
Clark's hand had already landed on the glass door. "I'm not interested in Mr. Fletcher's private affairs. I'm interested in my private affairs. After all, only when Mr. Fletcher gets divorced can I openly pursue his ex-wife." . Ebookex.com
