Sweet Divorce novel Chapter 226

Freddy had been known as the most popular boy in high school.

He was good-looking indeed.

But to Rita, who already saw the strikingly handsome face of Liam, Freddy was not that good-looking anymore.

It felt like…

After she had already eaten the honey, she would not think melon was sweet enough.

But the couple in front of her did not know what was going through her mind.

Rita sniggered, “I had a crush on him? Why don’t I know that?”

Hearing that, Leyla looked at her with contempt. “What? You’ve forgotten the love letter you sent to him, which he returned back to you?

She had sent love letter to Freddy and had been rejected by him?

Well…

Why did she remember it was him who sent the letter to her and had been rejected?

Rita had not spoken yet, but Freddy who knew what had happened looked uneasy.

He nudged at Leyla and said to her in an undertone. “OK, stop it. We should go to the dinner.”

“Sweetie, no. I just want to help the old schoolmate to recall the old days.

Leyla pouted as a spoiled girl.

Freddy had to compromise.

Leyla would definitely not go anywhere.

In high school, Rita had surpassed her in the exam or in the race for the most beautiful girl in the school.

Though Leyla managed to play cool, she really hated Rita for that.

Now…

The man that Rita had had a crush on became her boyfriend.

She thought it was a good time to overshadow Rita, so she could not miss this opportunity to show off in front of her.

She held Freddy’s arm intentionally, gloating. “Rita, we will have the wedding on eighth next month, you must come.”

Rita scorned, “I don’t think we are so familiar that I should come to your wedding.”

In Leyla’s mind, Rita’s refusal was because she did not want to see her beloved one to marry another girl.

The thoughts made Leyla even more complacent.

“Why? You’re afraid that you will be too sad to attend his weeding? You’d said you hadn’t fallen for my boyfriend? Who will buy that?”

Rita was speechless.

She wondered why Leyla was so proud. Did Leyla think her boyfriend was some kind of heartthrob that every woman would fall in love with?

She did not know why Leyla thought she had fallen for Freddy.

But she was not going to explain.

First, she couldn't be bothered to explain to an unimportant woman;

Second, she did not want to bring that up to embarrass Freddy.

As his classmate, she could help him to save his face.

“Believe it or not, I haven’t done that, and I won’t admit it.”

Leaving Leyla with that, Rita went to the restaurant with Nathan and others.

The waitress came to welcome them warmly when they walked in.

With her eyes going through Nathan and Tomas and resting on Rita’s clothes, her obsequious smile turned into a sneer instantly.

As if she was mocking Rita who came to the fancy restaurant with cheap clothes.

To the waitress, Rita was clearly overreaching herself.

Frowning, Rita had a look at her outfit and understood why the waitress had contempt for her.

This morning, she put on the sweeter that she bought with only a few bucks in a stall when she and Isabelle went shopping last week.

Perhaps she was scorned because of the clothes.

Rita gave a wry smile – in this society, fancy clothes make the man.

Ignoring the disrespectful waitress, Rita smiled at Nathan and Tomas. “What do you want? It’s my treat.”

The waitress sniffed at her words, “Miss, the food here are quite expensive.”

Smiling, she said with obvious disdain.

Because Rita dressed too casually.

“The ramen is the cheapest one, and it costs over fifty dollars.”

Rita was amused by waitress’s disrespectful words.

She thought the waitress almost wanted to say bluntly that she could not afford a meal here.

She opened her mouth to say something, but Leyla, who just had a fight with Rita, held Freddy’s arm and approached.

The waitress noticed the couple and came to them. “Miss Leyla, welcome. Your reservation is on the third floor, I’ll show you the way.”

“No rush.”

“I know.”

The waitress treated Leyla in a totally different way.
