The men gathered in the bar’s private room. It was rare for them to relax.
Many good things had happened lately. Josiah and Kelly were engaged. They were going to get married a year later. At the same time, their companies will collaborate by then.
From now on, the Bayers and the Tanners would head toward a brighter future together.
Not only had Seth succeeded with his confession, but Zennie was so outstanding she got seven A’s in the spring self-enrolment program. The Centrolis Medical Institute made an exception to accept her. She was enrolled as an undergraduate and Master’s degree student.
She and Seth promised they would study to become doctors together. They would work together at the operating table in the future.
Nicholas was confused. Why were these academic tyrants so dramatic even in love? How old would they be after they were done with their studies? Did they want to get married and have kids? Were they in a relationship to sacrifice to humans in the medical field?
“You’re uncultured, N. You won’t understand the joy of being academic tyrants!” Josiah chuckled.
Nicholas glared at him with his side eye grimly, giving the former a shiver.
In the next second, it was as if a wolf was eating a lamb when Nicholas pounced at Josiah and snatched his wallet quickly.
Robert was carrying a black cat and combing its hair. It was a stray he had adopted, and he had named it Sheriff. It ate less than Ginger but was so much more protective and loyal to its owner.
He was just watching the chaos while cheering on. Sheriff meowed in excitement too.
Zephyr brought out a cigarette slowly and lit it. Nicholas could only watch. It sure was nice when the former had the mother-in-law’s support…
Fredric was the only one who did not fit in. He was drinking alone, being all moody.
His relationship with Trinity had no breakthrough at all. He was an eloquent lawyer but could not say a word when he was with her.
After they were tired of fooling around, Josiah and Nicholas came to sit with him on each side. They looked at each other and instantly understood what was wrong with him.
“What’s wrong?” Josiah smiled. “Trinity is still unwilling to accept you?”
“Didn’t you ask around to find out what she has been up to?” Zephyr turned his face to look at him.
“She’s… shooting somewhere,” Fredric said in an upset manner. “It’s a period piece where they’re shooting in a desert. She’s been there for over ten days. There’s hardly any signal there. I can’t get hold of her.”
“What else?”
“And…” This was what he was most unwilling to talk about. “Neil is the male lead again.”
“Ha, I like them!” Nicholas laughed intentionally. “One is a director, while the other is the male lead that she always casts. They’re perfect for each other, a match made in heaven!”
“Did you not go to school?” Josiah continued to mock him. “It’s more accurate to say that they’re made for each other!”
