Sister Hua called to say that the order we received previously needs to wait, as the employer feels the price is too high and wants to reconsider.
Since the order hasn’t settled, there’s no point in staying in the country any longer.
I called Xiaoman, who’s already having the time of her life in Beautiful River Town, and was unwilling to go back to headquarters. She suggested letting Titus Zane return first, and then she would hurry back later.
Though Jiang Men has strict management over its employees, it never restricts their freedom.
When there are no orders, you’re free to roam the world, but once you’ve taken an order, the executor must arrive at the location on time as required by the company.
Titus Zane prepares to return to Paris, where at least there’s a home for her to return to.
She called Logan Ray, exchanged a few brief courtesies, and then Titus Zane bid him farewell. Upon hearing she was leaving, Logan Ray suggested they have a meal together.
The time was set for noon the next day, because Logan Ray had to accompany his wife in the evening.
The next day, Titus Zane dressed simply, straightening her brown waves, for Logan liked her with flowing long hair.
Her European eyes weren’t deliberately shadowed either, so the Western charm wasn’t as pronounced.
A loose overcoat with a grey-blue long skirt, a fairy-like and floating attire, just like a few years ago.
Titus Zane never thought about what could happen with Logan Ray. The reason for such an outfit was to leave each other with a beautiful memory because this departure might be a farewell for life.
She took a taxi in front of the hotel and went to the restaurant to wait in advance, because during that drunken time, Logan Ray had said that waiting was always the most torturous.
So, this time, let her be the one who waits.
The decor inside was as its name suggested, elegant, with a setting as graceful as a teahouse, suiting the taste of artistic youths.
Logan Ray had booked a private room the day before, a second-floor spot by the window, a small space with just a square table for two to sit.
Titus Zane knew it was for couples because when she passed by the other private rooms, she saw a young couple feeding each other through the half-opened door.
The waiter courteously showed her to the private room and then excused himself. Soon he returned with the menu, and two popular drinks among young lovers were added to the table.
A pale-yellow liquid in a sparkling glass cup, and suddenly Titus Zane remembered the time she and Logan Ray first went abroad together for their studies.
Their first visit to a coffee shop when they were still very young, looking at the brightly colored drinks on the menu, ordering two of each... After returning, they both had indigestion for an entire day and night.
Considering Logan’s previous preferences, Titus Zane ordered four dishes, instructing the kitchen not to prepare them too soon, because... she had arrived a whole hour early.
The waiter took the menu and left, casually closing the door of the private room. Sitting alone at the square table, Titus Zane brought a glass of the drink to her lips.
The drink tasted light, a faint flavor of mango, slightly sweet. In Paris, Logan often made juice for her, adding only a small amount of sugar to prevent her from getting too fat. The same juice, yet it no longer tasted the same.
"Big brother Logan, I feel dizzy..." Ava Charles coquettishly leaned on Logan’s shoulder, unwilling to get up.
"Is your blood sugar low again? I’ll call mom to have a doctor come check on you." Looking at the pale face in front of him, Logan Ray’s handsome face was filled with concern.
"No need, I just feel a bit dizzy, don’t want to move..." Ava Charles straightforwardly lay on Logan’s lap, rubbing her temples and closing her eyes.
