Chapter 1981: Harlan Asks Summer Out 2

Summer looked up at Harlan, feeling a bit sorry as she spoke, "I apologize on behalf of Spencer for the coffee bean incident this morning. Please don't take it to heart." She wasn't sure why he acted that way.

She apologized for him?

This made Harlan somewhat uncomfortable.

"Summer, what's your relationship with him?"

As a man's intuition, he asked the question, of course, a bit afraid to hear a definite answer.

After all, Spencer, from a man's perspective, might be a bit spendthrift, but he also had his own charm.

Facing his earnest seeking eyes for an answer, Summer knew he misunderstood.

So, she smiled and said, "We're just friends, what else do you think? What kind of relationship?"

"Just normal friends?" Harlan wanted to know, adding another question.

"Yeah." The girl nodded, "Just normal friends, really."

Looking at her, she didn't seem to be joking at all.

At this moment, the waiter handed her a latte, "Miss, enjoy."

"Thank you." She took the cup, gently stirred with a silver spoon, looking calm, like a goddess.

Finally, Harlan relaxed, a light and happy smile appearing on his face.

He thought, how could a good girl like Summer possibly like a playboy like Spencer?

Drinking coffee, the two chatted about the script, finding a common topic.

As they chatted, he looked at his watch, "Summer, it's almost dinner time, how about dinner? My treat."

Before the girl could refuse, he added, "I know a very good grilled beef restaurant nearby, with fresh meat and high ratings on all platforms."

Summer shook her head, smiling as she politely declined, "Let's not have dinner, chatting like this is good, I have to go home and cook, my sister is getting off work."

At that moment, her phone rang, Agnes calling, she answered, "Hey, Bubu."

"Summer, I'll be home late tonight, there's a sudden meeting at the company, don't lock the door, rest early." Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

"Do you want me to pick you up tonight?" Summer said, "Taking a taxi at night is unsafe, what time will it end over there?"

"Not sure yet, probably around ten, it's okay, I'll take a cab, I'll send you the license plate, bye." With that, Agnes hung up.

Summer held the phone, not saying anything.

"Summer, you should be free tonight." Harlan invited her again, "Let's have dinner together? Don't go home yet, we can discuss the script in more detail, share some information you talked with the author with me."

After some thought, Summer eventually agreed.

So, they sat in the cafe for a while, then Harlan took Summer with him, "Your car can stay here, ride with me, I'll bring you back later, it's hard to park over there."

He opened the passenger door for her.

Already being a gentleman to this extent, she couldn't insist on driving her own car.

"Thank you." And so, the girl bent over and sat in his car.

Harlan closed the door, went back around and got in the driver's seat, buckling up and starting the car, driving slowly along the riverbank.

He said, "Let me show you the scenery along the river first, then we'll go eat, are you hungry?"

Summer looked at him and shook her head, but vaguely, she sensed something different.

His different treatment towards her, there was a faint hint of affection.

But Harlan didn't express anything directly, so Summer didn't know how to react, feeling a bit awkward, she turned to look out the window at the scenery.
