After Queenie got the answer she wanted, she had no more intention of helping out. With that, she found an excuse to go to the
washroom and left the kitchen.
She did not realize Arielle was staring at her back figure for a long while.
Arielle finished preparing a table full of dishes in the blink of an eye.
Queenie pretended to be impressed. “Arielle, | didn’t know you're so good at cooking. Usually, a beauty doesn’t cook this well.”
Arielle let out a faint smile without saying anything.
With Donovan present at the scene, even Henry started behaving cautiously. After taking only a few bites, he stood up and wanted
to leave.
Jared too had no intention to stay in the sroom with Donovan any further. “We'll excuse ourselves first.”

With that, Trisha stood up also. “I'm done too.”
Arielle knew they did not want to hang up with Donovan, and she did not stop them either. “Letescort you guys down then.”
“Okay.”
Just then, Arielle shifted her gaze toward Donovan, waiting for him to say goodbye too.
However, Donovan still sat at his seat, without any intention to leave.
Meanwhile, Queenie lowered her head while eating without eye contact with Arielle.
As such, Arielle had no choice but to send Jared and the rest down first.
After the four of them left the scene, Queenie opened her mouth. “Mr. Baxter, I'm a straightforward person. Let's cut to the chase.”
Donovan could not wrap his head around it. “I'm sorry, Dr. Mill. | don’t get you.”
Putting down her spoon, Queenie looked right into Donovan'’s eyes. “Donovan, you have a thing for your student, don’t you?”
Donovan's heart skipped a beat as he furrowed his brows slightly
Queenie’s words pierced through his heart like a merciless blade.
Initially, he thought he had feelings for Arielle merely because he had not been with a woman for a long time. That was why he
agreed to a blind date with Queenie.
But after he met Arielle in the supermarket, he suddenly found his true feelings for her.
And now, Queenie’s words made him even more sure
about it.
Yes. I've fallen for Arielle.
Nonetheless, as most people disapproved of a teacher student relationship; naturally, Donovan would not be honest with Queenie.
Plus, he did not know Queenie for
long yet.

Donovan uttered faintly, “I like all my students. That way | could serve them better.”
“Haha.” Queenie let out a chuckle. “Donovan, there're only two of us here. There's no need to hide from me. You like Arielle, don’t
you?”.
A dark expression loomed over Donovan's face, but he did not refute anymore.
Upon seeing that, Queenie continued to speak, “To be frank. There is someone | like. | went on a blind date with you because my
mom kept forcing me. However, since you got someone you like too, let's be friends from now on.”
After pondering for a few seconds, Donovan nodded. “Okay.”
Queenie’s lips curled into a smile.
She took a perfbottle out from her pocket and handed it to Donovan. “This is my gift for you as a friend.”
Donovan rejected right away. “Thanks. But I'm sorry, | don’t have a habit of using perfume. | appreciate your gesture, though.”
Queenie raised her brows slightly. “This is no ordinary perfume. | made it. | know sancient Chanaean medicine. Spray a little
on the other people, and it will make them hallucinate and fall in love with you.”
