Chapter 993 What a Coincidence

“I’m almost done,” Janie said. “The apartment isn’t very big to begin with. There’s no need to call a cleaning

service.”

“Well, I’ll come over and see you then,” Emmeline said. “You haven’t had lunch yet, right? I’ll help you cook.”

“I’ve already eaten,” Janie glanced at the thermal flask behind her.

Originally, she had prepared lunch for Benjamin, but she had brought it over in a fit of anger.

Besides, since that woman who regarded him as her hero wanted to treat him to lunch, there was no need for the

food she made anymore, so she ate it herself.

“Alright then,” Emmeline said. “Wait for me, I’ll be there in half an hour.”

Janie couldn’t refuse her, so she agreed.

Emmeline gave a few instructions to Sam and Doris, grabbed two cups of coffee and packed some snacks, then

rode off on her motorcycle.

By the time she got to Janie’s apartment, the latter was still in the middle of cleaning.

However, she was wrapping things up.

Emmeline lent a hand, and the two of them finished the work in a little over an hour. They then sat on the sofa and

drank coffee.

Emmeline tilted her head and asked, “Janie, did you have a fight with Benjamin?”

Janie paused for a moment, before taking a sip of coffee and smiling lightly, “No.”

“But you left so suddenly,” Emmeline said. “Even if you felt it was inappropriate, you wouldn’t have moved out so

abruptly. I never heard you mention it before.”

“Emma,” Janie asked, “What do you think of my relationship with Benjamin?”

Emmeline was taken aback, not knowing what to say as she held her coffee cup.

Indeed, it was difficult to answer Janie’s question.

“Right?” Janie gave a bitter smile. “It’s awkward between us. Ever since the beginning, Benjamin never

acknowledged us as boyfriend and girlfriend. So, how else do you expect me to continue staying under the same

roof with him?”

“Ben probably does consider you his girlfriend,” Emmeline held Janie’s hand. “He just didn’t make it clear to you.”

“That’s because he himself isn’t sure,” Janie said. “He said before that he wanted me to give him a chance, and I

agreed. But afterwards, he still treated me coldly. I don’t know what he’s thinking.”

“Ben just isn’t the type to warm up to people so quickly,” Emmeline said. “You have to give him time.”

“Then I’ll just wait for him to fall in love with me to be together,” Janie met Emmeline’s gaze with her bright eyes

and smiled wryly, “It makes me sad to see how unclear things are with our relationship.”

“I understand,” Emmeline patted her hand. “I support you. It can’t just be you putting in the effort between you and

Ben. He has to work for it too.”

“Thank you for being so understanding,” Janie’s eyes were a little red. “Now that I left Glenbrook, I suddenly feel

relieved. I’m really tired of just being by his side and not having my feelings reciprocated.”

“Let’s not talk about that,” Emmeline said. “Let’s have dinner at your place. Shall I give you a little housewarming

for your old home?”

“I’d love to,” Janie smiled. “But would Mr. Abel agree to it?”

“Would he dare to disagree?” Emmeline laughed.

“I see that the wife has the final say in the Ryker household too,” Janie chuckled. “There’s a supermarket

downstairs. Let’s go down and buy groceries.”

A few minutes later, the two arrived at the supermarket and headed straight to the fresh produce section.

“Ms. Janie? Ms. Emmeline?”

Suddenly, a tender and gentle female voice came from behind.

Both Emmeline and Janie turned around and were surprised to see Erin not far away.

She was wearing a sandy green dress, her hair flowing loosely. Edmond was by her side, pushing a shopping cart.

Emmeline didn’t say anything, so Janie spoke first, “Erin, what a coincidence to run into you here.”

“I live in this neighborhood,” Erin glanced at Edmond beside her. “Mr. Edmond helped me rent a place here.”

“Ms. Emmeline!” Edmond also greeted Emmeline, but he was not familiar with Janie, so he simply nodded politely.

Both Emmeline and Janie smiled lightly in response. Emmeline replied, “Mr. Edmond.”

“What a small world,” Edmond said. “I didn’t expect to encounter Ms. Emmeline at the neighborhood supermarket.”

“I’m visiting my friend Janie’s place,” Emmeline smiled.

“So Ms. Janie also lives here,” Erin said, “What a coincidence.”

“My apartment is upstairs,” Janie smiled lightly. “You’re welcome to visit whenever you’re free.”

“We’ll definitely visit some other time,” Erin smiled. “We won’t disturb you today.”

Just as they were about to pass by each other, Edmond suddenly stopped and said, “Ms. Emmeline.”

After a pause, Emmeline stopped and turned back, asking, “Do you need something, Mr. Edmond?”
