Chapter54
Georgia suddenly pressed the doorbell, “Let’s have dinner together? Emerson booked a table at a three–star Michelin restaurant, he really admires bold young entrepreneurs.”
Andrea caught a glimpse of a shady figure at the end of the hallway.
The followers sent by Roderick are still around.
She smiled and said, “It’s my pleasure.”
Three Michelin stars.
Andrea sipped on her pre–dinner drink, listening to Georgia tell funny stories from her time at the Pinepond Biennale.
While Emerson was answering the phone, Georgia suddenly took out a crimson velvet box from her embroidery handbag.
“I heard Ms. Rehbein is getting married?” she pushed the box over, with a hint of playfulness in the corners of her eyes, “Just a little something.”
Andrea’s fingers trembled as she took the box and gently opened it.
Inside were a pair of silver bells, thumb–sized, with the clappers carved into intertwined double happiness symbols.
The inside of the bell is engraved with tiny words: Sound Together.
“What is this?”
“The works of the old craftsman Aldbeach.”

Georgia rested her chin on her hand and said, “They say this bell has a magical property. When separated, they are silent, only ringing when shaken together.”
Andrea’s cars were burning.
The silver bell shimmered with a gentle light under the lamp, and she unconsciously ran her fingertips over those marks.
Suddenly remembered that there were a pair of similar bells hanging in my father’s studio before he passed away, but they never rang again after his death.
“It was too expensive.”
“Take it.”
Georgia held the hand she wanted to push away, “I’ve been to your flower shop, the way the wind chimes spin in the window, just like the spring in my hometown.”
The melody of the string quartet started playing at this moment.
Andrea was about to say something when the piano music suddenly started playing, a piece of Debussy’s “Moonlight” flowing down like
water.
She suddenly turned her head.
In front of the grand piano, Quinn’s slender fingers danced on the black and white keys. He was wearing a navy blue suit today and wasn’t wearing glasses.
Andrea didn’t expect to run into Quinn here.
“Your friend?” Georgia asked with interest.

Andrea looked complicated.
Thinking Roderick’s eyeliner was still nearby, Andrea didn’t want to give herself unnecessary trouble.
When she looked back, she already had a calm expression on her face, and she shook her head gently, “No…”
“Ms. Rehbein, nice to meet you.”
Quinn’s voice suddenly came from behind, shattering the words she was about to deny
“Is your body feeling better?”
Andrea didn’t expect to run into him here.
“Thanks for caring, Mr. Shillingford, I’m much better now.
Andrea lifted the corners of her mouth, then turned to look at him.
“Tll introduce you, I’m Quinn, this is Emerson, and this is Emerson’s wife Georgia,” Andrea stood up next to Quinn and introduced the people.
Georgia loved everything beautiful, like a man and a woman standing together now.
She exclaimed, “You guys are the most suitable couple I’ve ever seen, Andrea, is this the fiance you’ve been talking about?”
Andrea quickly denied, “No, we’re just friends.”
Georgia only saw that kind of look from a man when Emerson was pursuing her.
She gave me a knowing look, “I understand, I understand.”

After dinner, Georgia wanted to invite Andrea to her place to hang out, appreciate some paintings, and have some wine.
Andrea saw that Quinn wasn’t planning to leave yet. Can’t just take him along, right?
If Roderick knew, he would probably make a scene again.
