Never Mistake a Queen for a Lapdog novel Chapter 655

But she was a bit allergic to romance these days, so she quickly looked away after a brief glance.

Since it was her birthday, she had to commemorate it somehow.

Noreen asked a waiter to take a photo of the three of them and posted it to Twitter with a simple caption.

[Happy birthday to me.]

Just after she posted, she saw a tweet from the user named Frost right below her own.

He had also included a picture.

It was a photo of fireworks exploding in the night sky.

But what surprised Noreen was his caption.

Happy birthday.

Someone actually shared her birthday.

Then again, it wasn't that unusual.

So Noreen just glanced at it before turning off her phone to focus on having dinner with Rosalind and Katy.

She had promised Rosalind she would spend the day with her, with no work interruptions.

...

Rivercrest City.

Bianca was counting the days in the detention center.

Life inside was unbearable.

Though only four days had passed, each day felt like a year.

She couldn't imagine, let alone accept, the possibility that she might have to go to prison.

Every time a guard walked by or delivered a meal, she would ask if she had any visitors today.

But every time, the answer was no.

This couldn't be right.

Seth wouldn't just abandon her!

The situation must be tricky, and he needed some time to pull some strings.

Yes, that had to be it.

Bianca kept telling herself to stay calm, to be patient.

She had to have faith in Seth.

He loved her so much. He would definitely, absolutely come to save her!

Finally, on the fifth day, a guard came to her cell door. "Bianca, you have a visitor."

Bianca's heart leaped with joy.

She knew Seth would come.

She even tried to fix her hair, not wanting Seth to see her in such a disheveled state.

But with the limited resources in the detention center, no amount of primping made a difference.

Bianca felt a pang of frustration.

Impatiently, the guard urged her to hurry up and not waste time. She quickly rushed out of the cell.

Before entering the visitation room, Bianca's heart was fluttering with anxiety.

She wanted to act calm, to not worry Seth.

She took a deep breath before pushing the door open.

As she did, she called out, "Seth, you must have been so busy these past few days, haven't you?"

Only after her words had left her lips did she see the person sitting across from her.
