Chapter 680
Soon, the PE lesson was over.
The two girls bought some bread as their quick and simple lunch before taking a cab to the clinic which Trisha had recommended.
During the journey, Vinson called. “Let’s have lunch together. I’m on an inspection near your campus.”
Stunned, Arielle realized that her heart skipped a beat just by listening to his voice. The whole experience was like riding a roller coaster.
She gulped while glancing at Trisha who had dozed off next to her. “I guess not. I’ll eat with my classmate.”
“Which one? The one you brought breakfast for?”
Arielle was almost at a loss for words. “What breakfast? You chomped it all down. Have you forgotten?”
“It’s her then.” Vinson continued indifferently, “When she’s free, I’ll treat her to a hearty meal as a token of appreciation for taking care of you in school.”
Somehow, Arielle had a feeling that his words sounded like a threat.
Was I mistaken?
She coughed lightly and said, “If there’s a chance, I’ll invite her and my two other friends home for dinner. I’ll let you know in advance, so that you can tidy up your things. It’s not nice if they discover we live under the
same roof.”
On the other end, Vinson exuded a hostile aura, causing the manager of the shopping mall to tremble in trepidation
Everything was fine just now. Why did he turn sullen all of a sudden?
Arielle heard him acknowledge briefly over the phone, to which she replied with a goodbye message before hanging up.
She was puzzled. Why is he angry?
Right then, the driver turned to give them a friendly reminder. “Ladies, you will reach your destination soon. Do remember to take all of your personal belongings with you.”
“Sure.” Arielle nudged Trisha. “Trish, we’re almost there.”
“Trish, you’re here to see Dr. Meio?”
