Time-Limited Love: A Contract Expired, Not Renewed novel Chapter 291

“But honestly, my wife gets sick of me pretty easily. She might not even tell me,” Chandler said with a helpless grin.

At that moment, Landon suddenly spoke up. “The food’s getting cold. Let’s go out and eat.”

“Aren’t we waiting for Zinnia?” Arrow asked, glancing at him.

Landon’s face darkened, his tone icy. “No. She’s not coming.”

With that, he was already opening the door and stepping out into the hallway.

The others exchanged uncertain looks, then quietly followed him out, none of them wanting to be the last one left behind.

Across town, Zinnia hadn’t waited long in the hotel lobby before Yuri came down the stairs.

“You sure you don’t want to rest a little longer?” she asked.

“I had plenty of sleep on the plane,” Yuri replied, taking the stroller with Dapper inside from the doorman. “Besides, I’m starving. Let’s grab something to eat.”

Zinnia still cradled Cozy in her arms, absentmindedly squeezing the pup’s velvety paws and grinning at its playful squirming.

Yuri watched her fondly, a soft smile flickering in his eyes. “The restaurant I booked isn’t far. Let’s walk—it’ll do us good.”

“Sounds perfect. I’ll follow your lead,” Zinnia agreed.

“Zinnia?”

Not far away, outside a law office, Noelle had just finished a meeting with her attorney. The moment she stepped outside, she spotted Zinnia at once.

What’s she doing here? Noelle wondered, her gaze shifting to the tall, striking man beside Zinnia—the one with silver-rimmed glasses and the easy smile. Watching the two of them chatting and laughing, a sly, cold smirk tugged at Noelle’s lips.

She pulled out her phone and, making sure she wasn’t noticed, snapped several photos of them from different angles.
