Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 620

You've seen the famous actor, right?"

"Yeah."

"That's Mira's brother, Damon."

"Then there's Owen, and Dominic. You could pick any one of them out of a lineup, and they'd put that guy to shame."

Elara filled Leah in on the details.

"Even hotter than the guy who just asked her out?"

Leah's curiosity was completely piqued.

"If you thought he was so cute, why didn't you ask for his number?"

Mira found her reaction amusing.

"Because he was hitting on you, not me."

"So what? You could have made a move. It's totally normal for a woman to make the first move."

Mira really didn't see the issue.

When they arrived back at the dorm, Vanessa and Jillian were nowhere to be found.

"Ha! First place again. Go ahead and shower, Mira, I'll go after you."

After learning their lesson that morning, Jillian and Vanessa had rushed straight back the moment drills ended.

But Jillian was exhausted, and she had to half-carry the pampered Vanessa. There was no way they could outpace Mira's group.

Given the intense physical demands of the orientation, Mira temporarily suspended her morning and evening martial arts conditioning.

Mira and Leah had already washed up and were relaxing in bed by the time Vanessa and Jillian finally shuffled in and started getting ready.

It couldn't be helped. They simply couldn't beat Mira's speed.

"You guys are just too high-maintenance.

I don't even shower during the day. I wash my face, hit the cafeteria, sleep, and shower at night."

"Wait, you don't shower or change your clothes?"

"Man, it's so hot that my clothes air-dry by the time I walk from the field to my dorm. If you keep fussing over showers, no wonder you're all dead tired."

An image of someone eating and taking a nap in clothes reeking of stale sweat flashed through Mira's mind. A wave of disgust hit her; she could never tolerate that.

That message definitely came from a guy. Even if a girl pulled that off, she would never admit it publicly.

She recalled seeing swarms of students eating in their camo gear earlier and figured they shared the same gross philosophy.

She hadn't seen any posts from Liora Bennett or Celine Ward. She wondered how they were holding up.

Mira was enjoying the drama when Harvey suddenly dropped a message into the group, bragging about how the instructor had praised Mira's elite stamina and tried to recruit her. The chat instantly exploded.
