Chapter 247 Cecilia Glendon goes on a blind date
The meeting place was at a French restaurant, and because of the winter season, it was already dark outside when Cecilia Glendon arrived, even though it was just after 6:00.
The light in the restaurant is warm orange, open air conditioning, a walk in will feel a warmth, the restaurant is filled with a faint fragrance of unknown flowers, the air lingering piano music, let a person step into the good feeling will be born.
This place was chosen by Garry Dong, and I must say, it was very well chosen.
“How many of you are there, Miss?” The waiter greeted us, with a smile on his face, and asked softly.
“A friend has arrived.” Cecilia Glendon smiled at the waiter and shook her head as she walked in and saw Garry Dong slightly in the middle of the restaurant.
Cecilia Glendon’s mother showed her Garry Dong’s photo before, he wore glasses, looked very civilized, fair skin, the whole person looks handsome, with a scholarly atmosphere.
Cecilia Glendon walked towards him, and as she approached Garry Dong stood up: “Miss Glendon, hello.”
“Mr. Dong,” Cecilia Glendon offered her hand to shake his.
“Please sit down.” Garry Dong had a decent smile on his face, and when he shook hands with Cecilia Glendon, he just shook his fingertips shallowly and then let go.
After taking his seat, Garry Dong said, “I don’t know how your taste is, although I have asked my aunt, but I am still afraid that you won’t like the food I ordered, so I waited for you to come over.”
“It’s okay.” Cecilia Glendon had a smile on her face.
Just in time, the waiter came over and asked the two to order.
Cecilia Glendon had a small appetite and ordered only one dish, leaving the rest to Garry Dong.
Garry Dong looked at it, then ordered two more, two dishes and a soup, and they both ate about the same, and asked for an after-dinner dessert.
“I heard from my aunt that Miss Glendon is working as a designer now?”
Both of them were a bit silent, in the end it was Garry Dong who took the initiative, he opened his mouth first and asked.
“Hmm.” Cecilia Glendon gave him a look, “I thought Mr. Dong knew everything about me.”
Garry Dong smiled: “I only heard some of it from my aunt, I don’t know much about the details.”
“What about on the news?” Cecilia Glendon asked.
“News?” Garry Dong hesitated, “Which side is Miss Glendon talking about?”
“Social opinion and all that.”
“I don’t usually watch those news.” Garry Dong said, “What, is there a Miss Glendon story on there?”
Hearing this, Cecilia Glendon suddenly understood why Garry Dong had come to meet her on a blind date.
The feeling is that this is still a head of confusion does not know anything.
Cecilia Glendon very simply took out her own phone and went to search for an article that most closely resembled her actual situation and handed it to Garry Dong: “You read it first.”
Garry Dong carefully took it, very carefully not touching her fingers, and then slowly looked at the contents of the article above.
Cecilia Glendon kept an eye on the expression on his face as he watched, and was only satisfied when she saw the shocked look finally appear on his face.
Garry Dong didn’t know how long he had been looking at it, and when his eyes moved away from the phone screen, his throat slid up and down as he looked at Cecilia Glendon, momentarily at a loss for what to say.
“Read all about it.” Cecilia Glendon said.
“Finished reading …” Garry Dong said, handing the phone back to her, “Is it all true?”
“Nine out of ten.” Cecilia Glendon said, “Is there anything else you’d like to ask?”
Garry Dong nods and shakes his head.
“Then I’ll speak for myself.” Cecilia Glendon took a sinking breath, “I’m divorced, I broke up with my last boyfriend not too long ago, my old studio is now defunct, and a lot of people in Greenwich know about me, and in their eyes I’m a woman who tried to marry into a rich family and was tragically abandoned.”
“Miss Glendon, you don’t have to say anything.” Garry Dong interrupted her, with a not-so-good look on his face, “I’ve pretty much understood what happened to you just now.”
Cecilia Glendon laughs: “I don’t want to involve you in this, your original life should be very ordinary, daily routine, right. If you do get together with me, then the peaceful life you’ve been living will be disrupted.”
Garry Dong frowned, as if he didn’t know what to say, after a while, he said, “However, Miss Glendon is still single, so if we are suitable in all aspects, we can also try.”
Cecilia Glendon surprised: “You don’t mind me?”
Garry Dong shook his head, and when he said those words, his heart felt like it was much lighter: “That’s all in the past.”
His words warmed Cecilia Glendon’s heart. She had thought that every man would subconsciously dislike her when he heard those words.
Cecilia Glendon was about to say something when a voice interrupted her before she could say anything: “Sister Cecilia Glendon!”
At the sound, Cecilia Glendon looked behind her and saw Moses Walker walking with Helen Benson.
Helen Benson returned to Greenwich some time ago, and Cecilia Glendon has never met with her, probably too busy to meet up, but I just didn’t expect her first meeting after her return to be here.
“Ouch, what a coincidence.” Moses Walker said with a smile, “You’re here for dinner, too.”
Cecilia Glendon saw the smile on his face and had a bad feeling in her heart.
“What brings you two here?” She asked.
“Dinner.” Helen Benson said.
“You two out to dinner together?” Cecilia Glendon looked at her suspiciously.
“What, no?” Helen Benson pouted and finished, then looked at Garry Dong who was sitting across from Cecilia Glendon and frowned, “Sister Cecilia Glendon, who is he?”
“He … his name is Garry Dong …” Cecilia Glendon was a little unsure of how to introduce Garry Dong’s identity.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
“Hello, I’m Miss Glendon’s friend, Garry Dong,” said Garry Dong, who stood up first and politely addressed Moses WalkerHelen Benson when Cecilia Glendon was in a difficult situation.
“Mr. Dong ah.” Moses Walker smiled up, “Hi, my name is Moses Walker.”
The two men shook hands with each other, and Moses Walker was a little stronger, and Garry Dong looked at him with slight surprise when he shook it.
Moses Walker still laughs, “She’s Helen Benson.”
“Mr. Dong, how are you?” Helen Benson narrowed her eyes and smiled like a fox.
If by now Cecilia Glendon doesn’t know what they’re both doing here, then she’s grown up for nothing.
“You’re not here to eat, go and find yourselves a seat.” Cecilia Glendon said to Moses Walker.
“Why are we still going to find a seat, how out of place.” Moses Walker laughed, “Eh, waiter, come and add two Taylor chairs to this table.”
Thus, what was originally a blind date for two people turned into a get-together for four.
The table was not too small for two people, and there was still room for more, but with the addition of Moses Walker and Helen Benson, the table was noticeably narrower.
Garry Dong still had that humble smile on his face, not condescending, no objections to it, but Cecilia Glendon looked at it and felt sorry for herself.
“Helen Benson, you come with me for a moment, I want to talk to you.”
Cecilia Glendon’s eyebrows twitched slightly, she got up, and called Helen Benson out.
Helen Benson happily followed behind Cecilia Glendon and the two found a secluded spot.
“What the hell are you guys going to do?” Cecilia Glendon asked Helen Benson as soon as she stopped, “Is it fun to mess up my blind date?”
