When My Ex's Worst Enemy Became My Sanctuary novel Chapter 275

Dorothea was halfway home when she got a message from Carmen, and she couldn’t help but laugh.

“What’s so funny?” Mamie glanced over, curious.

“It’s nothing. I think I finally get why Bonita backed out all of a sudden.”

Mamie arched a brow. “Oh? Why’s that?”

Dorothea’s tone was loaded. “Probably just some random tension between women.”

Sometimes, two people who barely knew each other could turn into rivals, all because a guy happened to be involved. Dorothea didn’t get it, and honestly, she didn’t want to waste her brainpower on it.

“I’ll keep trying with The George Group, but I’m not giving up on the other two either. If those don’t work out, maybe we can look for a couple more companies.”

“Sounds good,” Mamie said.

Meanwhile, Bonita got out of her car and walked into a cozy French restaurant.

“Beatty, did I keep you waiting?”

Beatty flashed a warm smile. “Nope, I just got here. It’s been forever. You look even prettier than before.”

Bonita blushed a little at the compliment. “Oh, please. I can’t believe you came back. I thought the next time we’d see each other would be overseas.”

They had gone to school together, even though they were in different majors. Somehow, they just clicked. After graduation, Bonita came back home, while Beatty stayed abroad for her doctorate and eventually became a professor in rehab medicine.

Bonita lifted her glass. “Cheers. Welcome home, Beatty.”

“Thank you.” Beatty took a sip of her wine.

“So, how long are you planning to stay this time? Last I heard, you wanted to come back and see that patient you used to have a crush on. Did you meet up?”
