Chapter 150 - 150: Meeting Roman Lee


    Selena pouted her lips as she knocked on the door of the master bedroom.


    "Uncle!" she shouted, "grandma and grandpa are here "


    "Wait!" her uncle yelled from inside, "I will meet you downstairs."


    Selena blew out her cheeks, she remained standing in front of the door.


    "Ugh! Babe, I told you not to leave a mark on my neck!" she heard Danie''s voiceining, "I look like a teenager now."


    As the curiosity rushed in Selena''s head, she leaned an ear closer to the door.


    Then she knocked once, "are you making babies?"


    Soon she heard footsteps, realizing that it was the sound of the heels, Selena rushed downstairs.


    --


    As soon as Elise entered the house, her eyes roamed around.


    The ce was empty, there were no maids or guards around and it made her worry.


    Beside her was her ex-husband Alvin, the man still looked good in his suit despite his age.


    "Where are the guards and maids?"


    From their behind, Camille''s parents came.


    Elise smiled at them, "Evan gave them a month vacation," she proudly boasted, "how are you?"


    As the four people greeted each other, Camille emerged from the kitchen.


    "Mom! Dad!" like a kid, she rushed towards them and embraced them as if she didn''t see them for years.


    Then she turned to Evan''s parents who have genuine smiles on their lips.


    "You look so beautiful Camille," Elise stated as she nted a quick peck on Camille''s cheek.


    Giggling happily, Camille folded her palms.


    "Why don''t you settle in the living room first and I will check the table," with politeness Camille escorted them all towards the couch.


    "Oh look at thisdy!" Elise patted Camille''s back twice, "it''s like you were born to be the head of the Su."


    And with that, all of themughed.


    --


    Danie''s face darkened as she waited for Evan in the stairs. She heard everything, and she could not help but be disappointed.


    "Hey," suddenly a voice sounded in the hallway. Danie smiled at Evan who was approaching her.


    stering a sweet candy-like smile, Danie waited for him, then she stretched a hand and wrapped it around his arm. As they walked down the stairs, she sniffed his scent. His manly perfume was gone and reced with vani scent, calming her nerves down.


    Shifting from one foot to another, Danie walked towards the couch with Evan by her side.


    "Good Evening," Danie''s voice – calm as ever greeted the people chatting on the couch.


    She stered a smile, the type that could make anyone smile but, the five people were looking at her with frowns.


    No one greeted her back, deep inside it hurt her but outside, her smile widened.


    "I understand that you want Evan for Camille," as she said that, everyone suddenly concentrated on her, "but he loves me and I do too, so..." she blew a sigh.


    Inside she wanted to say ''suck it up'' but her lips said, "why don''t we have dinner first? For sure the traffic drained you."


    She turned around, she heard footsteps following them and that was all. The whole vi became quiet.


    Robert rose a brow; he and Scott were standing by the corner of the dining room like waiters while the guest settled on the chairs they chose.


    The dining table which was long and solid was full of dishes that Robert and Scott have prepared.


    The look was exquisite as the two prepared it like they were pro''s in catering. The smell mixed in the air, making everyone''s stomach growl silently.


    Roman Lee, who was sitting next to his wife looked at the dishes around. His eyes squinted as the confusion filled his mind. He gulped hard; all the food have sesame sprinkled on them. The roasted duck b.r.e.a.s.t which was sliced in a perfect D-shaped has sauce above mixed with sesame. The colorful rice has it as well, including the sparkling water.


    He looked at Danie who was drinking the water with pieces of sesame in it. At first, he wondered about the taste, so he picked up his ss and drank it.


    His world seemed to have stopped when he realized that the sesame was real, even though it was mixed in the water, the taste was the same.


    His hands slightly shook, he put the ss down to hide his feeling.


    Meanwhile, Evan leaned closer to Danie when he saw the dishes, "what are you going to eat?"


    Danie blinked, she swung her face to her right and looked at him, their nose bumped, faces too close, "It''s fine babe, I can eat it today," she gave him a wink and picked up her fork. The duck on her te looked very tasty.


    With her fork and knife, Danie slowly sliced a piece of meat. She ate it like a bird, chewed it slowly andter swallowed it. Then she ate one slice after another, drank the water and when she was full, she ced her fork and knife on her te.


    She turned to her side, Evan was eating quietly just like the other guest.


    Her lips pursed, eyes scanned everyone, from Camille to her parents, to Alvin and it ended to Elise.


    The woman looked up to meet her eyes, "did you like it, Elise?" she asked.


    Elise frowned, knowing that the food was prepared by Danie''s face, she felt disgusted.


    "The mushroom soup is good," then she faked a smile when she noticed that her son was looking at her.


    Danie nodded, "my friend Robert picked those mushrooms by himself," then she turned to Robert who has a smirk on his face, "he knows what is poisonous and what''s not."


    Hearing that, Elise''s face went pale. She stared at the cut mushroom on her te and looked at her son''s te.


    Discreetly, she blew out a sigh, she''s confident that Danie wouldn''t ask her friend to poison the food knowing that Evan will also eat it.


    "I thought you have allergies with sesame," Selena spoke after the table became quiet.


    Danie nced at Roman Lee who suddenly stopped from chewing his food.


    "I did but well, I am a doctor so I found a way -," she didn''t finish her sentence and innocently tilted her head as she stared at Roman.


    "I actually read one of Dr. Lee''s researches," then she switched her eyes to Camille who was looking confuse as she ate her food, "I had the copy of your book titled ''Brains''," her eyes went back to Roman Lee, "could you sign itter?"
