Chapter 197 A Dreadful Invitation

• I pondered how getting a cup of coffee had gotten me into this mess. Would I have avoided Miles if I steered clear of Starbucks?
• Faced with Miles' gentle smile, I considered my options. He can't force me to leave with him in broad daylight.
• To be honest, Milena's actions left a sour taste in my mouth. Who does she think she is? The Queen? Does she expect me to bow to every single one of her whims and fancies? Even if I'm trying to get on her good side, I'm not going to do it like some indentured slave. Plus, Dominic's gone overseas. She must've known this and deliberately ambushed me at my weakest.
