"Do you need us to give you guys some space?"

Skylar sat by the side. Occasionally, he drank some water and ate a bit of food.

"There's no need to do that." Jamie looked at Wayne and asked, "Tell me. Which girl did you give the flowers to?" "It's not that..." Wayne refuted.

"It's not that? You dared to do it but you don't dare to own up to it. Seems like I've misread you right from the start."

That day, Jamie went all-out, interrogating Wayne until he wasn't able to refute a single word.

"Jamie, he actually wanted to invite you to watch Spider Man that day."

Finally, Coralie spoke the truth. She was beside him the entire time, worrying about her younger brother.

"She's right." Hearing Coralie's words, Wayne admitted it and continued, "That day, you said on Twitter that you wanted to watch it but no one would go with you, so I wanted to accompany you..."

"I even wanted to watch Minion and Wonder Woman long before that. Why didn't you keep me company then?"

Jamie still didn't buy it and continued interrogating Wayne.

"Because..." Wayne glanced at Skylar before he told Jamie the truth. "Because Coralie and Skylar didn't have a good relationship back then. I was afraid that I would make her think of Skylar if I asked you out. I didn't want her to be sad."

Wayne did it because he was taking Coralie's feelings into account?

"Because of me?" Coralie asked in disbelief.

She had thought that it was just Wayne's half-hearted remarks back then. She didn't expect that he had really thought that.

"Now you've told me the truth, but I'm going to be engaged to someone else. What's your plan now?" Jamie asked.

"Wish you a happy marriage."

Hearing Wayne's answer, Jamie's wrath was kicked up a notch.

In fact, she already guessed that Wayne was there to pick her up that day. However, on that day, when Wayne saw her leave in a car, he did not have any response at all, so she deliberately tweeted the picture of the bouquet of roses to irritate him on Twitter.

However, she didn't expect Wayne to congratulate her!

"Who allowed you to wish me a happy marriage?" Jamie raised her voice; she was already extremely angry. She found that Wayne was indeed a slowpoke when it came to love, so she said, "Why do you think I started to tweet in the past few years?"

"Why?" Wayne asked.

"Your little brother." Hearing Wayne's question, Skylar pulled Coralie's hand over to his side. He looked at her and said, "Both of you are really similar."

"What are you talking about?"

Coralie was peeved.

Jamie picked up Wayne's glass, poured red wine into it and handed it to him. She said, "Drink this and I'll tell you."

"Okay," he said.

Wayne finished it without a second thought.

When Jamie saw that Wayne was so cooperative and obedient, she laughed out and said, "If it wasn't for you, I would never do something like that on Twitter! That's too hypocritical." "For me?" Wayne repeated.

"Yes, for you! I wanted you to know about my recent situation and make you aware that I don't have a boyfriend. I wanted you to strike when the iron was hot. Who knew that you just had to be so good at choosing the time and coincidentally picked the day when my mother introduced me to a blind date."

Jamie said all she wanted to say while her gaze never left Wayne.

"Ah, is that so?" However, Wayne was still uncertain. He said, "When I pursued you back then, you didn't give me an answer. I thought..."

"Who do you think you are? Look at how much time Skylar spent on courting your sister! You had only been defeated once and you're already going to give up?"

Jamie tucked her short hair behind her ear and pretended to be angry at Wayne.

"No!" Wayne denied immediately. He didn't expect that things would turn out like this. He immediately said to Jamie, "Can... can we start it all over?"

He wasn't afraid of chasing after Jamie; he was only afraid that Jamie would be annoyed if he pestered her round-the-clock.

Jamie looked at Wayne and sized him up. After a moment of silence, she uttered two words.

"No way."

As soon as she blurted the words, Coralie grew confused. She thought that since Jamie had put it that way, she should at least agree to let Wayne chase her.

"Don't rush it."

Seeing that Coralie was puzzled, Skylar placated her by the side.

As expected, when Wayne was at a loss for what to do with Jamie, Jamie added, "My mom has asked me to get engaged with someone else, and now you're telling me that you want to start all over by courting me again? By that time, I would have married someone else, do you understand that?"

"Then...

"

Wayne didn't know what Jamie meant.

At this time, Jamie suddenly stood up and took Wayne to face Skylar and Coralie. She raised her voice and said loudly, "Skylar, Coralie, let me introduce him to you. My boyfriend, Wayne." "Great, I'll accept this man as your husband."

Skylar knew Jamie well; he understood that she wouldn't change what she was determined to do.

Since that was the case, he would do her a favor.

"Thank you, Skylar." After saying that, Jamie turned to Coralie and said cheekily, "Coralie, you will accept me as your sister-in-law, won't you?"

"Ah, absolutely."

Coralie's mind had already been twirled around by Jamie's quick-wittedness.

She didn't expect that Jamie would come to this decision.

"What should I call you..." Wayne mumbled.

"What?"

"Just keep calling me Jamie." Jamie said with a smile, "Wayne, if you dare to do anything to hurt me in the future, you'll definitely get into trouble."

Well, Jamie had two strong points. One was Taekwondo, and the other was playing games.

However, only when Jamie came closer that she noticed that Skylar wasn't sitting on a chair, but in a wheelchair.

"Skylar, are you..." She asked worriedly.

"I'm fine. It's just a minor injury. I'll be fine after a while, but don't tell anyone else about this," he replied calmly.

Skylar didn't intend to hide anything from Jamie. The reason why he was willing to help Jamie and Wayne today was that in his opinion, the two of them were close to him and he could trust them. "Sure, Skylar. I won't tell anyone."

Wayne said.

"Since my boyfriend said that he won't tell anyone, naturally I should follow his lead too."

Jamie held Wayne's arm and couldn't suppress her smile.

After that day, Coralie thought that the matter between Wayne and Jamie had been settled and it would become simple from now on. However, she had been away for too long, thus she forgot why she once said that Wayne and Jamie were not suitable for each other.

When she was at work the next day, she received a call from Queenie, asking her to have afternoon tea together.

Although she claimed that it would just be afternoon tea, Coralie clearly knew that it must be very grand.

In the afternoon, Coralie asked for leave and went to the cafe Queenie specified.

She had seen Queenie before, but the last time she saw her was during Grandmother Holland's inheritance distribution.

Originally, Coralie had a good impression of Queenie and thought that she was a reasonable woman. However, Coralie was still apprehensive when she invited her out this time.

When Coralie arrived at the cafe, Queenie was not there yet. She waited for nearly an hour before Queenie arrived.

After Queenie came, she sat opposite Coralie and didn't even apologize for being late. She just said, "When I was doing the facial treatment, I thought that I've been feeling a little tired recently, so I requested an extra full body massage."

She didn't seem to care at all about Coralie who had been waiting for her.

"It's no big deal."

Coralie smiled faintly. She knew that Queenie was a key figure in the relationship between Wayne and Jamie. If she fell out with Queenie today because she was an hour late, it would be harder for Wayne and Jamie in the future.
