Chapter 247
Dale Philip was her ex-lover. He used to be a teacher i n First Santabaca as well. Since they were
colleagues who shared the same age range, they fell in love with each other after working together for
some time. 1
But the school sent out a memo stating that he was assigned to another secondary school not long
after they started dating.
She was shocked by that news. Shortly after, Dale went to look for her in the same afternoon, telling
her about transferring schools. He then asked for a breakup, explaining that they were incompatible.
The only reason they got together was that the teachers in their school were generally older, leaving
the two of them who were of similar age.
Moreover, the teachers from the office were trying to match them up, which was why they decided to
give it a shot.
Upon hearing him asking for a breakup, Summer was exceptionally calm. There was really nothing in
her heart, neither hurt nor sad.
It was apparent that she hadn't developed any feelings for Dale throughout their relationship.
She nodded in agreement with his decision. The two o
f them had a coffee together before ending the relationship on good terms.
Soon afterward, rumors about Dale started to spread among the teachers, saying that he had hooked
up with the daughter of the Minister of Education and they were about to get married, which was why
his career was thriving.
That was the moment she had an epiphany about the reason behind their breakup, but she wasn't
bothered by it. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
To her, Dale was just an irrelevant bypasser in her life, like a pebble that was thrown in the water,
causing a small splash but never a ripple.
If he had not greeted her or listened to her class this afternoon, she definitely would not be able to
recognize him at all.
"Where are you going? I'll send you.”
"Thanks, but it's okay," she smiled and turned him down.
Dale sighed lightly, "We have not seen each other for such a long time, let’s go somewhere and grab a
cup of coffee maybe? Come on, don't be a stranger with your old colleague."
She thought to herself, 'Mark wasn't home anyway, I would be alone if I went back to the apartment. So
it was probably going to be boring.'
She stopped refusing and opened the car door, getting
on the car.
Dale started his car and drove towards South Lane.
South Lane was the busiest street in Santanbaca. It had retail stores, cafes, restaurants, and
nightspots all in one place.
So, it was Santabaca's citizens' favorite place to hang out.
Dale picked a cafe, and they sat opposite each other. H e ordered 2 cups of coffee and some unusually
overpriced desserts.
"You have become even beautiful after all these years, I could hardly recognize you," Dale laughed.
"I could only say the same thing to you," Summer rejected his coffee for her as she only wanted the
desserts. "Sorry, no coffee for a pregnant woman."
Dale nodded and sighed emotionally, "Your bump looks like it's 4 months old now, how are you getting
along with your husband?"
"It's alright, what about you?" She took a bite of the dessert. It was sweet but not too sweet, just nice.
"Me?”
Dale's tone changed suddenly.
"I rather not talk about it, it’s like I’m living my life in constant misery. If I happened to be home a little
late, she would turn herself into an FBI agent, asking me all sorts of questions. Even after I explained
everything to her, she would sometimes still doubt me and ask for clarification from other people! Every
once in a while, she’d make her way to the school and cause a scene. It never ends and it really gets
on my wick every time!"
Summer fed herself a piece of tart and said calmly, " She's just worried about you."
"Worried?" Dale scoffed in disgust. "In what form?
She’s very spoiled and entitled. Whenever I'm home, she would order me to do the chores and laundry.
And If I ever refused, she would threaten me with her dad, crying and complaining to him through the
phone."
