Chapter 380
Stella pulled her phone further away from her ear. She waited for Felicity to stop screaming and said, "He took the initiative to ask you out?" "Kinda," Felicity responded evasively.
He did not really ask Felicity out.
Doctor Steven's full name was Corbin Steven. He was 28 years old and worked as a doctor in the breast surgery department.
Ever since Felicity added Corbin on WhatsApp, she kept initiating conversations with him. For example, she would ask him about his favorite food, books he was interested in, movie genres he liked, and things like that. In other words, she was trying to probe him about his preferences.
Corbin would reply to her when free, but he did not say much each time.
Felicity wanted to ask him out to watch a movie, but Corbin said he might not make it as he was attending a friend's birthday party.
As soon as Felicity began to understand how it feels to like someone, she became much more unashamed than Stella. According to her own words, the chances of finding someone she liked in this vast world was too low. Now that she had met him, she would even tie herself to him by the belt if she had to.
Hence, she kept asking about which friend, and the party’s location. That was how she found out that the birthday boy was Vermont Snyder, the owner of Neon Nebula.
'So it's an acquaintance... Stella's acquaintance.'
"What a coincidence. Vermont is my friend. I was also planning to attend his birthday party." Without batting an eyelid, Felicity lied.
Corbin was surprised. "Didn't you want to go to the movies?"
