Chapter 216: Love fool (8)

Everyone sigh in dismay at how anti climatic the scene played out.

They were expecting that that chance encounter will make their ship go happily sailing.

They all looked at Wesley with pity in their eyes.

While Wesley acts all calm and collected outside he was practically dying of happiness inside.

He stared at the white handkerchief in his hands and securely kept it in his pocket.

He was overjoyed that he got to talk to her and hear her voice.

Wesley Kang went home that day feeling like he's on cloud nine.

The next day he went and find Ivy to return her handkerchief.

At first he was reluctant to give it back.

He wanted to keep it for himself as a memorabilia.

But then he thought that their unexpected encounter could be a divine intervention.

So he decided to push his luck. He waited for her under the large willow tree where he saw her being bullied by his fans.

"Ms. Chang...."

He called her out as she passed him by.

Ivy stopped on her tracks and looked at him in inquiring manner. Waiting for him to state his business.

He handed her a paper bag with a pink box inside.

"I don't accept gifts from strangers. Sorry."

"Oh, no it's your handkerchief from yesterday."

"..."

Ivy wanted to return the paper bag, but when she found out that it's hers, she held on to the loot.

"Ah, what happened to your shirt? Here. I'll pay for it."

"..."

She handed him a couple of bills. He felt hurt seeing her treating him like a beggar.

His shirt cost more than she's paying him but he doesn't care about that.

She could splash all the milk tea in the world on him and he would gladly take it all.

It's just her attitude towards him confirms that she doesn't see him as equal to her.

"Don't you know who I am?"

"I know who you are Senior Kang, please take this as a payment for your clothes. I don't want to owe anyone."

Ivy stated. She's losing her patience. She wanted to go home and rest. She added a few more bills for him to take.

"Here... Still not enough?"

"If you really wanted to get even, then how about we have some coffee at the cafe just around the corner?"

Wesley bravely asked. He was testing if Ivy would agree. He only wanted to spend an afternoon snack with her.

Ivy rolled her eyes then she checked her watch. It would be half an hour for her chauffer to pick her up.

She figured she have some time to spare as she waited for her driver.

She started walking towards the main gate.

Then she looked back at Wesley who was feeling all dejected again.

He thought Ivy was ignoring his invitation.

"Oh, aren't you coming?"

She enticingly asked him. Wesley's solemn face beamed when he heard her question then he walked with her to the cafe.
