Chapter 143

Fifteen minutes later, they exit the shop . Adding to his newly bought clothes was a pair of shades and a baseball cap .

In the end, Mimi was unable to find anything that didn't further cause attraction to the G.o.dlike specimen .

Everything the man wore made him look like a sin!

As for herself, Mimi washed off her makeup, put up her short hair and purchased herself her own set of men's clothes . She wore a dark blue cardigan with a white b.u.t.ton-up s.h.i.+rt underneath and brown pants . On her face was a pair of large black-rimmed gla.s.ses, practically the size of her face .

"Where is she now?" Mimi twirled a stranded piece of hair away from her face .

Tobias glanced down at his phone, "She's at the food court . "

Suddenly, Mimi's steps slowed until they came to a halt . Noticing this, Tobias looked back at her in confusion .

"What is it?"

Mimi gaped as she tried recovering her wits . Finally, she spat out, "There's a food court?!"

Grasping the reason for her sudden shock, Tobias's usual poker face slipped and he said softly . "Mm . We can buy something on our way there . "

Her smile reached her eyes, turning them into crescents . "Yes, let's go!"

Heading to the food court, the two quickly spotted Senior Su sitting in a fast-food store . Mimi bought three burgers, a large set of fries and a chocolate milkshake, while Tobias purchased for himself one burger and onion rings .

Sitting down, Mimi tilted her head . "My, my, I never thought of her as someone who enjoyed fast food . "

While Mimi kept her eyes on the woman a few feet away from them, Tobias began unwrapping their food and setting it out . When he finished, he set down a burger in front of her .

"Eat . "

Directing her gaze away from Senior Su, Mimi looks down at her tray and notices the lone burger .

She frowned . "Where's the rest?"

Tobias took off his shades and rolled up his jacket sleeves . "When you finish that you can have the second one . "

"And the third?"

"You can have that after you finish the second one . "

Hearing his words, Mimi shot a fierce glare at him . However, not bothering to challenge his method of feeding her, Mimi frowned and took a bite of her first burger .

Upon the first bite, the previous dissatisfaction she felt melted away . She continued eating joyously while softly humming to herself .

Meanwhile, Tobias's attention was on the girl seated across from him, a faint smile on his face . When she finished her first burger, she looked at Tobias with eager eyes .

"Seconds please!"

Sighing, he hands her the second burger . Just as she was about to bite into it, a large hand stretched out and wiped her lips gently with a napkin .

"Eat slowly this time . Give the food time to digest . " Tobias spoke softly .

Shock filled her eyes from the gentle sensation on her lips, diminis.h.i.+ng her usual sarcastic wit and adding an extra trace of cuteness . She nodded her head slowly, humming a sound of agreement .

Treated so gently as if she were a child, Mimi slightly felt overwhelmed and a warm feeling spread through her chest .

This had all felt too familiar . She had wondered where she felt such a feeling when a sudden figure appeared in her mind .

That's right . . . her sister .

Whenever she ate crepes with her sister, she'd get powdered sugar on her mouth and Emily would wipe it off for her . It had been seven years since someone wiped food off her mouth .

After he finished cleaning the sauce on her face, as if nothing happened, Tobias went back to his food . Her eyes kept drifting up to sneak glances at him . His strong jaw flexed as he ate .

Chewing his burger, Tobias sensed the girl's stare on him and directed his handsome face toward her - those eyes of his revealing nothing .

"What?" He asked, licking the ketchup from the corner of his lips .

Mimi's eyes unconsciously followed his tongue's movements as it went back inside his now sealed lips before looking back at his face . Perceiving the emptiness in his eyes, she was at a loss .

Before she could stop herself, she asked, "Tobias, why are you so kind to me? In the end, we're still strangers to one another . "

Dark eyes stared at her . Setting his burger down, he reached for the napkin beside him and wiped his hands neatly . His movements seemed so slow to her as she waited for him to answer her question . Finally, he looked up at her .

"How are we considered strangers to one another?"

Mimi hadn't expected this sudden question from Tobias at all . Her purple eyes widened and her pink lips pursed in thought .

Before Mimi could answer, from the corner of her eyes, she spotted a figure walking toward Senior Su's table .

At that moment, her expression went dark, the light in her eyes faintly dimming until they appeared soulless . Her throat was unbearably dry, and she couldn't even speak .

It was him . He was here .

She hadn't imagined how she'd react to seeing him . If anything she had a.s.sumed she'd be indifferent . After all, as a child, she hated him .

However, witnessing his familiar face and the expressions on his face altering, she felt her entire body turn numb, her face turning pale as a sheet of paper .

Shen Jue was here .

"Mimi?"

Tobias quickly noticed Mimi's abnormal behavior . Watching those bright eyes of hers slowly dim as if she were a doll, his heart stirred . He turned to look in the direction she was staring at, and he immediately frowned .

Shen Jue? Wasn't he partnered with the Hiro Corp?

His frosty eyes swept over to Senior Su who smiled at the approaching man . He would need to look into this . But for now, his top priority mind was focused on the girl across from him .

"Mimi . "

She was silent . Her eyes continuing to stare at Shen Jue's as if she were in a trance, causing Tobias's heart to tighten even further .

Leisurely, Tobias extended his hand out and softly grabbed her clenched fists into his large ones . When he felt her cold hands, his eyes narrowed .

"Look at me . " He demanded softly .

Flinching at the sudden warmth on her hands, Mimi finally regained her senses . Her head s.h.i.+fted to look at Tobias, a glazed look veiling her eyes . His thumbs smoothed over her hands - his touch as gentle as a feather .

"Let's go back . "

Mimi nodded absentmindedly . Still grasping her hand, Tobias walked out with Mimi behind him . Before leaving, Tobias's cold eyes darted back toward Shen Jue and narrowed .

Having left the area, the two hadn't noticed the man sitting across the woman glancing up and smiling oddly .

"Shen Jue?" Senior Su glanced at the man curiously .

Reverting his attention to her, he said with a smile . "Forgive me . It's just I happened to see an old friend of mine . "

"Oh . Do want to invite them over here?"

Chuckling softly, he shakes his head, "That's alright . It would seem they've left already . "

Senior Su nodded her head and continued to eat her salad . Meanwhile, the smile at the edges of Shen Jue's mouth grew deeper, and his eyes darkened .

In a low, gentle whisper, he uttered the chilling words, "I'll see her again soon . "
