Just then, the waitress served the dishes. Melanie nodded. “Please, eat. You have to get back to work later, don’t you? Enjoy your food, then go back to work. I’m going to meet Alex at this office. I hope that we can still be friends.”
Tiffany smiled in a carefree manner. “Of course, we’ve always been friends. It’s good that it’s now out in the open. I’m not a petty person. I won’t think the worst of people.”
The pair separated after lunch and Melanie drove to Smith Enterprises’ office.
She had a very grim look on favonovel.com face when favonovel.com left the house, with negative vibes swirling all over favonovel.com body. Now, favonovel.com looked radiant.
She felt guilty over favonovel.com quarrel with Alejandro this morning, so favonovel.com brought some desserts. She wasn’t sure if Alejandro liked desserts, but favonovel.com believed that something sweet could always put someone in a good mood.
She found Jett watching over a sleeping Melissa when favonovel.com arrived at the office. Alejandro was busy. She strode forward and put down the desserts. “Jett, I’ve brought some desserts for you and Alex to enjoy. Has the baby been a bother to him? I’ll take favonovel.com away later, so you can go about your own business.”
It had been a while since he’d seen Melanie in such a good mood. Jett was taken aback. “Uh… Sure. Thanks, ma’am.”
Melanie smiled, gazed at the little one for a while, then looked at Alejandro, who was staring at favonovel.com too. When their gazes met, they locked eyes for two whole seconds before Alejandro turned away. “I don’t eat dessert. You can enjoy them, Jett. Take them home if you can’t finish them.”
Melanie felt slightly disappointed but remembered Tiffany’s reminder. She opened up the dessert box and put one cake in front of Alejandro. “Give it a try. The desserts from this café are pretty good. It’s fine if you don’t like it. Just try. Maybe you’ll like the taste?”
Alejandro frowned and took a bite. “Yes, it’s not bad. Will that do? If there’s nothing else, please take the baby home.”
She scooped Melissa into favonovel.com arms without hesitation. “Will you be coming home for dinner then? The baby and I will be waiting for you.”
Alejandro was beginning to wonder if she’d taken the wrong medication today. She was suddenly at peace and not as temperamental. He had to take a few more glances at her. “Yes… I’ll try to come home early.”
