Chapter 1255 A Date for the Day After Tomorrow
“Oh, sure!” Jennie did not expect Waylon to agree to her invitation, she continued, “I will give Doris a call now.”
Waylon said, “Remember to send me the location after you have made the reservation; I will pick Doris
1.
“Alright! Let’s meet at the Struyria Banquet! I will leave Doris to you.”
Waylon hung up the call and texted Emmeline, “I am busy.”
Emmeline checked her mailbox; she was confused by Waylon’s reply. What does he mean? Does he not care that
Mr. Thomas is here for Doris?
Emmeline was worrying while Doris came downstairs. She said, “Emma, can I leave earlier today?”
Emmeline thought to herself, Did Mr. Thomas text Doris that he was here? Did he tell her that he was waiting for
her?
Just when Emmeline was still debating whether to grant the leave, Doris continued, “Jennie won the divorce lawsuit.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe invited Mr. Adelmar for dinner. I am joining them.”
Emmeline hurriedly said, “Sure, you may leave early today! Send my regards to Jennie!” Did Waylon send those
texts on purpose? Is he trying to act calm? I bet he knew about Jennie’s lawsuit when I texted him!
Daniel stood up and said, “Doris, I am here. I am waiting for you to get off work.”
Doris was surprised. “Mr. Daniel, why are you here?”
“I have been here for a while. I didn’t intend to disturb you when you were working.”
Doris said hesitantly, “I apologize, Mr. Daniel. You should have heard it; I have a date with my sister tonight.”
Daniel said, “I did. You should join your sister; I am always available. We could do it another day.”
Doris smiled and said, “I am sorry to have kept you waiting.”
Daniel pointed at the table and said, “Don’t worry about it; it hasn’t been long. I haven’t had
my
dessert
yet.”
Sam said from the side, “I could pack it for you; it won’t go to waste.”
Emmeline said, “How about another box of durian-flavored mochi? You can enjoy it at home.”
Daniel said, “Thank you for offering; a box is more than enough. I have something to ask Doris.”
Doris nodded and said, “Go ahead.”
“A friend of mine is getting married the day after tomorrow. Could you come with me?” Daniel asked.
Doris hesitated, saying, “I don’t think it’s appropriate for me to go with you.”
Daniel said, “It is. I could only ask you. Please say yes.”

Doris gave it some thought. Mr. Daniel had been waiting for me to get off work. I felt guilty if he wasted his time.
Besides, even though he was the son of an official, he never treated me rudely. She said, “Sure, I agree. I will
prepare a present for your friend.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“There isn’t a need for you to prepare a present. You are my partner; you shall just attend the wedding with me.”
“Alright.” Doris nodded.
“It’s settled. I will pick you up the day, after tomorrow. It is in the evening. It won’t delay your work.”
Doris-replied, “That’s great.”
Daniel took the coffee and dessert that were packed by Sam and left in satisfaction.
Emmeline thought to herself, We had blocked the date for tonight, but we failed to stop the date on the day after
tomorrow. Waylon, you must hurry up!
Waylon came to the Nightfall Cafe after Daniel had left. Emmeline saw him across the road. He opened the door,
and she pretended she had just noticed him.
She said exaggeratedly, “Wow, look! Someone is here!”
Waylon snorted and flicked her forehead, saying, “Stop playing dumb. You should have seen me crossing the road.”
“I didn’t; I was too busy with my stuff. You appeared out of nowhere!” Emmeline laughed.
“Naughty!” Waylon looked at her softly.
Emmeline said playfully, “Are you here for Doris?”
