Chapter 1513: Chapter 1330: Others Will Think I’m Trying to Be Special

There were foreign cuisine dishes as well.

Joanna noticed that there were only two servings of the foreign cuisine.

She looked towards the entrance of the dining room, and not seeing anyone else, couldn’t help but ask, "Mr. Parker, are you and I the only ones having breakfast here?"

Frank Parker fell silent for a moment, then nodded, "Yes."

"Aren’t the people who came with me eating here?"

"Yes." Frank nodded again, pushing a glass of milk in front of her. "They have their own place and are not here."

Joanna looked at the lavish breakfast spread before her, and although she was hungry, she pushed the glass of milk away.

Frank Parker watched her do this, his eyebrows furrowing slightly.

Joanna stood up: "Since I came with them, I should eat with them. Mr. Parker, thank you for your hospitality. Can you find someone to take me to them? I don’t know where they are."

"Why bother looking for them?" Frank furrowed his brow again, "Breakfast is ready, just eat here. Don’t you like any of these dishes?"

"It’s not that." Joanna pursed her lips, looking at him, "I just don’t think it’s appropriate. Others will think I’m trying to be special."

In fact, the real reason was that Joanna wasn’t used to having breakfast with Frank Parker.

For some reason, when she was alone with Frank Parker, she felt on edge.

His kindness made her feel even more uneasy.

She would actually prefer if he were to act as cold as before.

But now, Frank Parker seemed like a different person.

Not only did he stop making cold remarks, but Joanna even felt... he seemed to be treating her well.

The drastic change made Joanna feel apprehensive.

"Mr. Parker, I’d rather be with them." Joanna expressed her wish softly but firmly, "If you can’t find someone to take me to them, can you tell me where they are? I’ll find my way."

Frank Parker’s thin lips tightened, and he looked at her, frowning: "Joanna, am I that scary? Are you afraid of me?"

Joanna was momentarily startled, feeling a bit surprised.

Frank Parker took a deep breath and continued, "I realized that you seem to really dislike being with me. Is it because you dislike my personality or because I was too harsh to you in the past, and you have a problem with me and don’t want to be with me?"

"If it’s the former, you can mention what you don’t like about my personality."

"If it’s the latter, I apologize. I did misunderstand you a lot in the past and did many bad things, but it won’t happen again. Can’t I just be friends with you now?"

The last question was asked a bit cautiously.

So cautiously that Joanna felt as if the man in front of her was no longer Frank Parker.

After asking, Frank Parker pressed his lips and quietly waited for her answer.

Joanna could tell that he genuinely wanted to know the answer, so she didn’t brush him off. She pondered carefully for a moment, then slowly said, "Mr. Parker, I believe there were indeed misunderstandings between us in the past, and I no longer hold a grudge about that. However, I am not able to become friends with you all at once."

Frank Parker’s expression changed slightly, "Is it that you can’t accept it now, or you won’t be able to accept it ever?"

Joanna thought for a moment, "For now, I can’t accept it. I’m sorry if what I said upset you..."
