Chapter 851 Being Tedious
At the moment, Emmeline felt a little embarrassed. After all, it was Isaac's birthday party. When they were eating earlier, Isaac was present too. It was only when he received a phone call that he said he had to pick up someone and left.
It took him a long time to come back.
Logically speaking, as guests, she and Jara should not leave the table before Isaac came back.
Now, the two of them had left ahead of schedule. Hence, it was all too awkward.
So she hurriedly explained. "I didn't go anywhere, we were just walking around."
After a pause, her eyes fell on the girl behind him. She wore a white short flower print shirt and a pair of tight jeans and carried a small bag on her back. Her hair was tied high into a ponytail and she styled it with a hair clip at the back. Overall, she looked very young and agile.
Emmeline couldn't help but smile and ask, "Isaac, this is..."
Seeing this, Isaac quickly smiled and introduced them. "This is Esme Romero, she is..."
After a pause, a look of understanding flashed across his eyes. Then he said with a smile, "She is Mr. Romero's daughter."
Then, he introduced the girl named Esme to them. "Esme, this is my good friend Emmeline Illington. You can call her Emme. That is Jara. You don't need me to introduce him, do you?"
After the introduction, Esme walked up to them and gave a natural and graceful smile.
"Of course not. I'm afraid that no one hasn't heard of Jara here."
After that, she looked at Emmeline and Jara and said with a smile, "It seems that it's not the right time for us to show up. Sorry that we have disturbed you."
Being a little confused, Isaac did not quite understand what she was saying.
However, Emmeline knew that as a woman, naturally, Esme was more attentive than boys.
Although she and Jara were not doing anything at the moment, she could still feel the subtle atmosphere between them.
So, at the moment, her face became a little hot all of a sudden, and she said awkwardly, "Well if there's nothing else, let's go back to the dinner table. You haven't eaten yet, have you?"
Hearing that, Esme nodded and replied, "Of course, I sneaked out of my house and finally got here. I didn't have time to eat."
Suddenly, Isaac came to his senses and uttered hurriedly, "Oh, look at me, I've forgotten about it. Come on, let's go eat. Come, come, come sit down over here."
As a result, the group returned to the dinner table and sat down.
It was not surprising for the people at the dinner table to see them coming back again.
After all, it was always normal to have a squabble over small things.
In addition, there was a new member. In fact, everyone had already heard that Isaac held this birthday party just for a girl.
At this time, when they saw a beautiful girl coming with him, they understood it immediately.
So, everyone started to gossip with each other in an instant.
However, they didn't know that Isaac hadn't told her that he liked her yet.
Now he and Esme were just ordinary friends. Because she was Mr. Romero's daughter, he was afraid that one mistake would affect the relationship between the two families. Therefore, Isaac had been very careful when he hung out with her.
It was because he really cherished it, and was afraid that any mistake would make her feel disgusted.
So, he hadn't expressed his feelings to her yet.
At the moment, his groups of friends, who had long been familiar with being around beautiful women, had nothing to hold back.
They were teasing him in all sorts of ways, which made Isaac's face change.
Then, he could only pick up the glass and toast with everyone, begging them to show mercy. It was a way that only men understood.
So they wouldn't scare away the girl before they even got together.
In fact, it was not out of malice that they acted that way.
They were only trying to test the water for him.
First, of all, they didn't how much Isaac fancied Esme. They came up with all kinds of jokes just to evaluate Isaac's position in her heart so that they could decide what attitude they would use in the future to face her.
Secondly, they wanted to test the girl's attitude towards Isaac. After all, most of those ambiguous jokes were directed at Isaac and her.
If she was really interested in Isaac, they might even be able to help Isaac to quicken the pace, so why not?
Therefore, while the group of people ate for an hour, the jokes did not stop.
As they were used to have fun, they didn't repeat each other's jokes and didn't go too far either, so as to not make her feel embarrassed.
This way, they had a very pleasant and relaxing meal.
Emmeline also watched quietly at the side and did not interrupt.
In fact, based on her judgement, she thought that Esme indeed fancied Isaac too.
Although they hadn't had deep feelings for each other, they definitely had good feelings for each other.
It was a pity that Isaac, who was such a straight man, couldn't tell. He even thought that Esme wasn't interested in him. That was why he came up with all sorts of ideas.
Shaking her head silently, Emmeline let out a sigh.
After some thought, she thought it was a good idea after all.
Although the method was a little stupid, he did show his sincerity.
Maybe Esme liked him this way.
And Emmeline was just an outsider. If it's not necessary, it's better to let the two of them develop their relationship freely. What if she made things difficult for Isaac and overdid it?"
With the thought in mind, Emmeline suppressed what she wanted to say to Isaac.
Instead, she picked up the cup and drank some water. Unexpectedly, when she tilted her head, she saw Jara looking at her quietly.
The look in his eyes was deep and hot, which made her heart skip a beat.
Realizing that, Emmeline's hand that was holding the cup froze, and the next second, her face darkened.
Her long and shapely eyebrows stood up and she glared at him.
That pair of smart eyes seemed to be telling him. What was he looking at? If he kept looking, be careful that she'll punish him in person!
Originally, she thought that he would restrain himself. Unexpectedly, he was unaffected. Instead, he even smiled gently.
At that moment, Emmeline became angry.
Fortunately, he finally withdrew his eyes, then took out his mobile phone and began typing something.
Seeing that, Emmeline didn't bother about him anymore.
Turning her head, she was about to talk to Esme, but suddenly, her mobile phone rang at this moment.
Frowning in confusion, she took out her phone and noticed that Jara was looking at her again. The frown between her brows deepened.
She really disliked him staring at her like that.
However, Emmeline ignored him this time.
Taking out her mobile phone, she looked at it, and her eyes widened in an instant.
It turned out to be a text message from Jara just now.
'The way you stare at me is so cute.'
Seeing the text, Emmeline was completely speechless.
For a moment, she felt that there was a mouthful of blood in her chest, and she just wished that she could spit it out right away.
And spit it on his face!
Emmeline felt that he was really being tedious.
Hence, she could not be bothered to reply to him. Simply putting her phone away, she pretended that she did not see anything.
Unexpectedly, Jara picked up the phone and began to type again.
