BXBX NOVEL Chapter 57 Not Surprised At All
Tristan was still touching his lips when he got out of their hotel room. He was tracing his lower lip using his thumb as the memory of Zhen-Zhen\'s kiss lingered on his mind.
Unknowingly, a smile of satisfaction worked its way across his face and into his eyes. His mood had improved a lot after that.
When he arrived at the restaurant, Andrew was already there sitting at the table while scanning the menu list. Tristan frowned upon noticing that Andrew was alone.
\'I wonder where is Hannah right now. Did she also stay in their room?\'
Tristan just shrugged his shoulders. He thought it was better this way, facing Andrew alone than facing both Hannah and Andrew at the same time.
Now he started to waver. If that happened then he might consider bringing Zhen-Zhen with him too. He didn\'t want to look pitiful after seeing his first love and his half brother together while acting lovey-dovey in front of him.
Speaking of Zhen-Zhen, Tristan remembered that he had to order food for her and FaMo. He would ask the staff to deliver it to their hotel room.
Instead of going straight to Andrew\'s table, Tristan went to the restaurant counter to order food. Zhen-Zhen was not a picky eater, unlike other women he dated so he could order any kind of menu for her and Zhen-Zhen would not even complain.
"Hello sir, Good noon! Welcome to Oceana\'s resto. What do you want to order, sir?" The staff politely greeted and entertained Tristan with her smiling face.
"Hmm. Give me one set of your best-selling food here, two orders of grilled Tuna Belly, pineapple juice, one-piece blueberry cheesecake, and fruit salad. Oh please add fresh mango and banana fruits too."
"Got it, sir."
The staff showed him the total bill and Tristan paid it using his card.
"Please deliver the food at Blue Ocean VIP room # 318," Tristan said to her.
"Okay, sir. This is noted."
Tristan was about to leave when something crossed his mind. He turned to the restaurant staff once again.
"Miss, can you also add three white tulips when you deliver the food. I want to thank my girl for cheering me up today." Tristan made another request.
The staff nodded with a smile, "Sure, sir. We will do that for Ma\'am. You\'re so thoughtful, sir. She\'s lucky to have you."
Tristan let out a soft chuckle. \'No, you are wrong. I think I am the one who\'s lucky to have her.\'
After settling the bill, Tristan proceeded to Andrew\'s Table. Andrew already noticed his presence. He saw Tristan at the restaurant counter when he heard his familiar laughter.
Andrew shook his head helplessly. He thought Tristan was flirting again with that beautiful staff.
"Brother…" Andrew said the moment Tristan reached their table.
"Yow!" Tristan simply said, raising his hand to acknowledge Andrew\'s presence.
Tristan had stopped calling him brother. He couldn\'t help it. The bitterness in his heart was stopping him to call him brother once again. Maybe in the future, but as of this moment, he couldn\'t do it.
Tristan sat down on the opposite side, facing Andrew. He didn\'t look at him once again as his eyes were now fixed on the menu list.
Andrew\'s brows wrinkled into a frown as he sensed Tristan\'s cold treatment and nonchalant behavior towards him. He clenched his fists but his face was not showing anything other than a calm and composed expression.
The gaps between the two brothers were getting bigger and bigger. They were drifting farther apart. All they could feel while being together was intense awkwardness.
This was the second reason why Andrew brought Hannah with him in this City. At least, if there were three of them, Hannah could be a mediator between them.
But the question was \'Is that what Andrew truly felt… no hidden motive at all?\'.
Even Tristan, who lived with Andrew for so many years during their childhood days, couldn\'t even figure out what Andrew was thinking nor what he truly felt. Andrew was unreadable, giving off a mysterious vibe.
But one thing was clear to Tristan. He couldn\'t trust Andrew since he was the one who took Hannah away from him.
After a while, Andrew took his phone and typed something. He sent a message to Hannah, telling her that Tristan already arrived in the restaurant.
Since Hannah wanted to surprise Tristan, Andrew, and she decided to let her wait for Tristan to arrive before coming to the restaurant to show herself.
When Hannah received Andrew\'s message, that\'s the time she entered the restaurant. She headed straight to the table where Andrew and Tristan were sitting.
"Tristan!" Hannah called him out, her voice filled with enthusiasm.
She was standing in front of their table, wearing her lovely bright smile. Tristan moved his gaze from the menu list to her.
Tristan just gave her a faint smile and said, "Oh Hannah, where have you been? Come and join us."
Andrew and Hannah were both dumbfounded for a moment. Instead of surprising Tristan, they were the ones who were surprised by him because of his simple and natural reaction.
Hannah and Andrew just exchanged meaningful glances with each other. Tristan didn\'t look shocked or surprised at all as if he already knew that Hannah was here.
After Hannah recovered from the shock, she returned his smile and asked him curiously.
"Why are you not surprised to see me here?" There was a hint of disappointment in her tone.
Tristan just shrugged his shoulders before replying to her.
"Hmm, I just figured it out that you\'ll be coming too. Besides, Oceana Safe Haven Hotel Resort would be a perfect getaway for couples like you and Andrew."
Tristan lied while trying to maintain his composure and look as natural as possible as if he was not affected at all but deep inside he was not happy to see them together.
\'Bravo, Tristan! Bravo! You did it very well.\' Tristan praised himself inwardly after saying those words to Hannah making the couple speechless. At least, he was the one who was enjoying their baffled reaction.
