Chapter 855:
Upon seeing Yelena’s reaction, John ducked under the table in alarm, fearing that his good looks might divert her attention from Austin to himself. However, curiosity got the better of him, and he couldn’t resist stealing glances at her.
When John finally got a clear view of Yelena’s face, he was taken aback, his jaw dropping in astonishment at her appearance. Something about her seemed oddly familiar, though.
Outside, Austin, having paused momentarily, suddenly dashed forward. His striking features were unmissable: tall and dashing in a black coat that billowed behind him as he moved swiftly along the bustling street. His eyes blazed with determination and urgency, as if driven by a compelling force.
Onlookers along the street were drawn to his presence, halting to watch, their expressions a mix of astonishment and curiosity. As Austin’s features came into clear view, those around him were mesmerized. His striking appearance seemed to pause time itself.
Nearing the restaurant, Austin increased his pace. His black coat billowed behind him, propelled by the wind, enhancing his swift stride. Despite the bustling street traffic, he moved with seamless agility, dodging between vehicles with ease. Soon, Austin arrived at the restaurant.
Several young women, captivated by his approach, watched him with wide eyes. Yet, Austin paid them no mind; his focus was solely on Yelena. Meanwhile, John, jolted into action, began waving his arms desperately to catch Austin’s attention.
He was determined to intercept his friend and save him from something horrible. However, Austin seemed oblivious to John’s frantic efforts and continued on his path until he stood directly before Yelena.
Yelena was idly scrolling through her phone, feeling indifferent, when suddenly someone stopped in front of her. Her excitement surged, anticipating the start of the show.
