Unexpected Fiancée novel Chapter 55

Chapter 55: Don't Be So Cruel To Me

"We're leaving now," Patrick announced firmly, noting Osborn's unwavering gaze on Jane, which irked him. After bidding goodbye to Osborn, he ushered Jane into the box.

Seated, she questioned, "Do you know Osborn?"

"We used to be neighbors," Patrick replied nonchalantly.

"Are you close to him?" Jane probed, peering at him with a dubious expression.

Patrick narrowed his eyes, casting her a suspicious glance. "What, are you interested in him?"

"Of course not," Jane denied.

"I just have a friend who's an Osborn fan. I didn't expect you to know him. Since you do, maybe you can help me get his autograph?"

"Really?" Patrick huffed.

"Yes," Jane nodded, aware of his displeasure.

Despite there being nothing between her and Carl, Patrick persistently assumed otherwise. He constantly reminded her of her status as his fiancée.

What if he discovered that Osborn had been pursuing her for the last two years? "What would you like to eat?" Patrick asked, handing her the menu.

"You can order what you like. I don't mind," Jane returned the menu, occupied with thoughts of Osborn.

Accepting it, Patrick confidently placed an order for a myriad of spicy dishes.

Jane was taken aback as she listened to the waiter take down his selections. These dishes were her favorites! And if she remembered correctly, Patrick didn't enjoy spicy food. At least, she had never seen him eat it before.

"Do you also like spicy food?" Jane asked in surprise.

"You have a hand injury. I think it's best to avoid overly spicy items."

"No, I don't like it," Patrick said dismissively.

"Then why..." Jane's jaw dropped in shock as the dishes arrived on the table.

"I ordered them so you wouldn't think I'm heartless," Patrick explained with a faint smile.

Jane was speechless. Even though all the dishes were her favorites, she lacked an appetite at that moment. Her mind was fixated on Osborn's sudden return.

Did something happen to Star Entertainment? Unlikely, as she would've known. "Sorry. I need to use the bathroom," Jane excused herself, feeling a sudden stomach ache.
