Despite promising Darnell that he would only meet him at the restaurant if there was something important to do.
But Elaine couldn't sit still for a full day at home, and ran out of the house with great enthusiasm.
The restaurant was still the same as when she had come before.
She found a corner with few people to sit, and after ordering a drink, she admired the view of the river outside.
After a while, the milk tea she ordered was delivered.
Elaine said thank you before realizing that the person standing in front of her was Nicolas. She was stunned and a little surprised: "You're back from Switzerland?"
Having said that, she suddenly remembered that Archer had said that Nicolas had been sent to Switzerland by Darnell.
That place where she doesn't know anyone, and now that she's back, Nicolas probably doesn't want to stay there.
Nicolas nodded and smiled, placing another tray of desserts on her table, "This is for Miss James."
Elaine said, "Thank you."
Nicolas' voice lowered a few notches: "Miss James is here to see ......"
Elaine made a shushing gesture at him, "Don't tell him, I'm just bored at home and want to get out."
On the way here, Elaine thought about it, after all, she had only met him yesterday, and it would be bad to bother him all the time.
Nicolas will understand: "Then Miss James sit, if you need anything, just call me."
"Okay, you go ahead and get busy."
After Nicolas leaves, Elaine looks out the window again, propping her hand on the table and resting her cheek in a daze.
At that moment, an uncertain female voice came from not far away, "Elaine?"
Elaine looked back, froze, and then a smile appeared on her face.
Natasha Osborne came over and sat in front of her, "Didn't you study in Switzerland, when did you come back?"
"Been back for a few days."
"You are really, why didn't you tell me when you came back."
Elaine spit out her tongue: "I've been doing a lot of things at home lately, and I haven't been going out much, I forgot ......"
Natasha has been her best friend since childhood.
Thanks to her, too, a glance at Darnell made Elaine's heart begin to ripple.
Natasha also ordered a drink and said to Elaine, "But it's better to come early than never, it's my birthday tomorrow night, don't forget it."
Elaine said, "Tomorrow night?"
"Yeah." Natasha looked at her suspiciously, "You didn't forget my birthday, did you?"
"No, no, no, no, I'm just ......" More words are sophomoric, Elaine said, "OK, I'll be there on time tomorrow night."
Natasha laughed: "That's more like it. By the way, how was Switzerland for you? Was it fun there? I've always wanted to travel there."
Elaine said, "It's okay for you to travel, but it's so hard for me to study there alone, it might as well be Riverside City."
"So."
After they talked for a while, Elaine said, "Why did you come here alone?"
Natasha said, "Oh, I have a dinner date with my boyfriend."
Saying that, she looked at the time, "He should be here soon."
Speaking of this, Elaine thought about it and spoke tentatively, "Didn't you say before that ...... you liked ...... the man we met at the restaurant?"
At that, Natasha waved her hand: "I meet too many of these casual likes every day."
Elaine: "......"
