“Christine,” Jason says, staring at the woman in front of him, looking shocked.
“Hello, Jason. Long time no see.” She says, smiling, showing off her perfect pearl white teeth.
I look at Jason and the woman in front of him; he just called the name of his ex-wife. Is she really the same Christine?
“What are you doing here?” Jason asks, surprised to see her here.
“I am staying in this hotel and heard you were holding your charity event tonight, so I thought I stop by.”
“Oh, when did you come back to California?”
“A few weeks ago.”
“Are you back or just visiting?”
Jason told me she moved away after their divorce. I wonder what made her come back after all these years.
“Just visiting, but I might change my mind. Something or someone might give me a reason to stay,” She says, smiling.
I quickly remove my eyes from her once she notices me staring at her. I can’t believe she caught me staring at her. Jason follows her eyes and finally sees me beside him.
