Rebirth: Marry the Enemy of My Badass Husband

Gianna ignored Maureen.

She had now parked the car near the Folk Restaurant that sold common folk dishes.

Maureen loved the restaurant's dishes and no matter who she invited for a food gathering, she would definitely pick that restaurant and people who had no idea about that would think she was the restaurant's

owner.

Maureen followed Gianna and entered the suite unhappily.

A person with a slender body figure had been waiting inside. He was now standing in front of a French window, gazing at the moat outside the window. The weather was splendid today and the dazzling sunligh was shining on the river surface. The sparkling water looked beautiful and dreamy with the river flowing.

The person sensed their coming.

He turned around and faced them.

He wore a bland smile. The sunshine seemed to penetrate the window and a halo seemed to surround him at that moment.

Gianna suddenly felt that he was someone who came from heaven, and his existence was unparalleled.

He did not have strikingly handsome looks like Kingsley nor Caesar's pretentious gentleness and virtuousness.

His elegant temperament was natural and genuine.

"Have you waited for long?" Gianna asked.

"I just arrived," Bruce replied.

"Let's sit down," Gianna said.

Bruce looked for a spot and sat down.

Maureen looked for the spot furthest from him and sat down.

She did that on purpose.

Gianna was speechless.

Yet Bruce was clearly not affected at all.

After sitting down, the waitress came forward with deference and handed them the menus.

They flipped the menus at the same time.

Gianna asked, "Bruce, since you've not come back for a long time, is there any Kouby City's meal you especially want to try?"

Before Bruce spoke, Maureen chimed in, "I suppose there's no spicy food abroad! Since you've come back, we should eat spicy food."

Bruce pursed his lips and did not say anything.

Three of them grew up together and they knew each other's eating preferences.

Bruce moved to the Kouby City at eight. He came from the capital city and the food in the capital city was more towards sweetness. He had never eaten spicy food and he still could not get used to the spicy food in Kouby City after moving there for so many years.

Now that he had left there for many more years, it was conceivable that he could not eat spicy food.

Maureen said to the waitress, "I would like a pickled peppers rabbit dice, hot pepper fish, fried pork intestine with hot pepper and fried squid tentacles with mustard, all extra spice please!"

"Would you like to order some vegetables? We have fried water spinach and..."

"Water spinach would do, but I want it to be mixed with a lot of hot pepper!"

"Oh, alright. But Miss Torres, the dishes you order all look a bit too spicy. I'll suggest ordering a plain vegetable soup..."

"Nah, please give me a beer instead." Maureen straightaway rejected the waitress's kind suggestion.

The waitress was startled for a second and she agreed.

"Please hurry up and cook the dishes, I'm starving," Maureen urged. She did not give anyone a chance to place their order.

Gianna noticed Bruce had already closed his menu and he seemed to not intend to order other dishes.

She then returned the menu to the waitress too.

Three of them were sitting around the table. Maureen used her phone and did not intend to join Gianna and Bruce's conversation at all. She looked like an outsider.

Luckily the cooking of the dishes was quick.

Dishes were placed all over the table shortly.

Maureen started indulging in her food excitedly.

Gianna took a few bites too.

The meal was indeed very spicy, yet luckily she could endure the spiciness and she was able to continue eating.

As for Bruce, he had never touched his chopsticks.

Gianna wanted to call over the waitress to place another order.

Yet Maureen suddenly began to pour the beer, "Aren't we celebrating his return? It's not a celebration without drinking!"

Gianna glimpsed at her.

That brat obviously knew Bruce was not good at drinking!

Bruce took his glass, "Thank you."

He started to drink with them.

Maureen did not want to pay attention to Bruce in the beginning, yet she became more aggressive as she competed in drinking with him. She intended to defeat him in drinking.

"Let's eat something." Gianna could not bear to see that any longer. Bruce would collapse on the table if he continued drinking like that.

Bruce nodded.

His stomach must have gotten a little upset. He picked up a slice of meat with his chopsticks and ate a little.

The moment he ate it, he coughed.

He choked and his face flushed.

Gianna quickly gave him some water.

Bruce drank some but he was still coughing.

"Why, you still can't eat spicy food after all these years?" Maureen teased.

Bruce held back his urge to cough and said, "I just choked."

He picked another meat and ate it the next second he said that. He did not show any change in expression this time.

Maureen did not say anything further and she enjoyed eating by herself very much.

Just then, the door was knocked.

Everyone turned around and saw Bernice showing up at the entrance. She walked in.

Maureen frowned.

She did have a good impression of Caesar, but she disliked Bernice from head to toes.

They were not in the same class back in school, and Bernice was even her junior, yet not knowing how they had held grudges towards each other and they nearly got themselves in a fight back then. "Bruce, why didn't you contact me when you came back? If not because of my friend seeing you when she ate here, I won't know you're here," Bernice complained.

Bruce said with a little indifferent tone, "I just came back a while ago, I'm slightly busy."

"Busy of what? Do you want to join the XH Bank?" Bernice blurted out.

Maureen's hair almost bristled.

"No, I've opened a small company with friends, we want to start business," Bruce answered.

"Oh really? You're really different from someone, someone who relies on parents and knows nothing besides going to the nightclub every single day..."

"Are you talking about yourself?" Maureen said directly.

"What are you talking about?" Bernice snapped, "When had I gone to the nightclub?"

"Well, I actually have evidence for it." Maureen took her phone out.

Her phone showed Bernice getting drunk in a bar.

"Who's this man hugging you? He looks quite handsome," Maureen commented while looking at her phone.

She even showed it to Bruce on purpose, "What do you think of this guy...hey!"

Maureen screamed.

Her phone was snatched straightaway by Bernice.

She burst with anger as she faced Bernice, "Give me back my phone!"

Bernice sneered. She opened a small window on French window and tossed the phone out into the river.

"Bernice, Kennedy! You bitch!" Maureen exploded.

She went forward and snatched Bernice's hair.

Bernice sensed a sharp pain and she grabbed Maureen's hair too.

Both of them finally started a fight that they did not manage to start back in school.

The fight was slightly aggressive too.

Bernice probably could not bear with Maureen grabbing her hair anymore and she yelled, "Help me, Gianna!"

Gianna let out a grim smile.

Maureen had wanted to teach Bernice a lesson a few times back in her previous life yet she had stopped her. She had protected Bernice in the end since she was Caesar's sister.

Now that the moment had arrived, why shouldn't she take the opportunity to revenge?¶¶¶¶‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒
